    Quote of the Day


    2010 - 04.28

    “Sure God created man before woman, but then again you always make a rough draft before creating the final masterpiece.”

    Thanks for sharing Erica! I freaking love this quote, because it is absolutely true. Man was lonely and bored and had no companions until we came along. Now….. those fools try to run LOL! You know why??? because they are intimidated =D

    Joke of the Day


    2010 - 04.27

    Three sisters wanted to get married, but their parents couldn’t afford it so they had all of them on the same day. They also couldn’t afford to go on a honeymoon so they all stayed home with their new hubbies. That night the mother got up because she couldn’t sleep.

    When she went past her oldest daughter’s room she heard screaming. Then she went to her second daughters room and she heard laughing. Then she went to her youngest daughter’s room and she couldn’t hear anything.

    The next morning when the men left the mother asked her oldest daughter, “Why were you screaming last night?” The daughter replied “Mom you always told me if something hurt I should scream.”

    “That’s true.” She looked at her second daughter. “Why were you laughing so much last night?”

    The daughter replied “Mom you always said that if something tickled you should laugh.”

    “That’s also true.” Then the mother looked at her youngest daughter. “Why was it so quiet in your room last night?”

    The youngest daughter replied “Mom you always told me I should never talk with my mouth full.”

    Loyalty and Betrayal


    2010 - 04.26

    One of my favorite things to do is workout with my Alamo Crossfit family. It is where I go to relieve my stress, get in good shape and see my workout buddies. This weekend I find out that my fabulous little family is splitting up. The coaches will be opening up their own location this summer and there will be alot of the ACF members going to follow them. This is like my parents divorcing all over again =(

    I think the owner of ACF is a great man who really cares for his members as well as believes in the Crossfit cause. Then, I hear my favorite coach is leaving got team at the other location. EEK! He is the one who motivated me to be better, be stronger and not be a wuss. So I am torn. Be loyal and stick with the gym that got you started…. the one you love and support 100%…. or leave and follow the people that are the reason you went to the gym in the first place. Is that a betrayal to your first gym?

    Booo- I am so sad to hear this news.

    Sometimes we feel like something is almost to a point where we can reach it…. yet for some reason we cant get to it. Today is one of those days. We just have to remember to keep trying for it and in the end something will come our way. Just remember to keep the faith.

    I am in the process of reading this book. I have learned more about myself in one short week than I ever have before. My love language is Quality time. What is yours?

    Homage to Chunk


    2010 - 04.09

    I got my wisdom teeth pulled 3 days ago…. and the swelling is a bit intense. The pain comes and goes depending on the medicine. My boyfriend looks at me with loving eyes and tells me that I look like Chunk from the Goonies.

    Men sure do have a way with words…. as I start to laugh I stop myself because it hurts. So instead I decided to dedicate today’s post to that adorable chunky boy from the Goonies. Thanks for making us crave candy bars and rocky road icecream.

    BYE BYE Teeth


    2010 - 04.06

    Today is my last day with all of my teeth. Tomorrow Dr. Daniel Riley will be nice enough to put me under and pull out all my wisdom teeth. =( So I dedicate today’s post to my wisdom teeth. I say good bye to you, for I now hold enough wisdom within myself to no longer need you. I found this little poem which I modified a bit to apply to me:

    Dracula and bugs bunny,
    Make big old teeth seem funny,
    But they really do get in the way,
    I wish tooth fairy’d take my spares away.

    I feel like a puffa fish,
    Granted is my boyfriend’s wish,
    For it really hurts to talk,
    I wouldn’t dare let out a squawk.

    Soon I get the special treatment,
    Leading to my smile’s completement,
    Neon mouthwash and “open wide”,
    As a one foot needle goes inside.

    “Ouch! why did you bite me?
    Don’t you know you can’t fight me”
    I leap out of the reclining chair,
    And make a dash for the stairs.

    My dentist chases me with a giant brush,
    ” You’ll never have another sugar rush,
    I’ll get you with my spearmint paste!”
    He says as I run in panicked haste.

    I wake up in a cold sweat,
    Even my puffy cheeks are wet,
    I look at my clock feeling unamused,
    In twelve hours I’ll have my teeth removed.

    xoxo,

    Sophie Cruz
