Cadences

By
Yeah I likes them.

I was entertaining the Orclette this morning and this was what I came up with:

I tried to join the Navy
But they said they do not swim
I tried to join the Air Force
But they said I was too thin
I tried to join the Mar-ines
But they said I was to smart
Now I'm in the AR-MY
Learning how to march

The Army takes my breakfast
gives me stuff called chow
The army took my girl-friend
I've got a battle buddy now
The army took my ca-ar
and gave me these two boots.
The army took my learnin
and taught me how to shoot.

I tried to be a lawyer
but the clients wouldn't pay
I tried to be a doctor
but the patients wouldn't stay
I tried to join the Coast Guard
but they didn't have a plan
Now I'm in the AR-MY
Learning how to stand.



Seriously.... there should be more of these cadences in life. I'd love to hum/quietly chant one while coding, or raiding... or cleaning house....

Wulfa has a fairly serious difference of opinion with me on the subject though. :(

Please, for the love of all that is holy, please admit that you are joking about liking cadence. Seriously...

INSANITY. Day 2.

By
My thoughts on the Plyometric Cardio Circuit? My floor has never looked so appealing. And I never thought I'd be one of the "yellers." In exercise lingo (not another lingo!:) that means you yell when things get hard. Oh bother. Another pun. Anyway, Shaun T's Basketball Drills had me yelling. And grunting as good as those humongo body builders do. And as good as Tim the Tool Man Taylor:) Damm's thoughts were that he didn't push as hard as he could've BUT this time he was standing at the end of the workout. And as soon as he actually sat down he couldn't get back up:) We aren't going to change what we eat yet. We were already ingesting good-for-you foods. According to the caloric needs calculater Damm should be eating around 3,000 calories working out 6 days a week and I should be at 2,400. I'm already at 2,000-2,200 because I'm still the main food source of the Little Man. Not sure where Damm falls on the calorie count. Anyway, not upping ou...

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

Pedestels

By
Me and someone had an interesting conversation yesterday. Prompting this short question post: Who do you put on a pedestel? Who do you look down on? Don't answer either of these please. I don't really want to know. I just did a personal inventory and realized there are an awful lot of people that I either elevate or disparage for reasons that are not really valid reasons. I know there are people I've thought horrible things about who were really just normal regular joes who were smart in other areas but inexperianced in the arena I knew them in. I know there are people I've thought of as amazing self assured genius specimens of physical perfection....who were really insecure, incompetant, losers who wanted more from life. Anways this is just serious thoughts from the Orc.
