Weird But True

Not Cool.......

Yesterday, which was Friday, I notice I'm starting to get "critically low" on my precious fresh veggies. It IS Friday - so I figure most people shop on the weekends - so the stores should be stocking up in anticipation - and since I ended up working late and didn't have the energy for a "proper" torture, I mean lifting, session I head to the store.

I pull in to a "spot", turn off my car and I'm listening to the end of a new tune on the radio before I get out. (Which reminds me, Jodie - what are YOU listening to these days? Got any new "hits" you want to share? Always looking for ways to improve the ol' MP3 player! In fact ANYBODY want to share some favorite training tunes? Drop me a note michelle@idealbodiesonline.com.)

O.K. - where was I - so when I turn off my car the radio plays on it's own for 10 min., or until you open the door. And also with my car when you turn it off and the doors automatically unlock. So the key's are out of the ignition, car's unlocked, I'm rockin'. I happen to see someone walking up along the passenger side of the car in the rearview. I don't recognize them - in fact - I don't pay too much attention to this....

AND THEN HE OPENS MY PASSENGER DOOR!!!!!

He thought it was someone else's car - quickly apologized and hurried off. No damage done. Now - I must be honest here, I'm not sure which was more "disturbing" to me.....a total stranger - who for the record was covered in tattoos and piercings, late 20's or early 30's - but not "creepy" - just kinda cool rock starish or mechanicish - if you can get the visual.......but a total stranger opening my door OR

My response - which was to say "Hi. Can I help you?"

WTF?! "Can I help You?" In today's world?! Filled with rapists and car jackers and "creeps." Shouldn't I have been startled? On edge? Disturbed? Angry?

Nope - none of these. Makes me think I might need a "reality" check. Perhaps I need to venture out of my comfort zones, familar stores, gym, Heaven, work, friends, etc. and start exploring new areas. To requaint myself. Get an "edge".

More not cool news......
I am NOT off the antibiotics as hoped for. Friday was to be my last day - but Hubert - that's what we've started to call the thumb - it has a life and agenda of it's own - so it gets it's own identity!....Hubert is STILL red, inflamed, and sore.
WTF!!!! More drugs and yet ANOTHER Dr. appt. is scehduled for Monday.

I HAVE heard from the photographer - they mailed my loose proofs out to me on Friday, so I should have them here Monday or Tuesday at the latest. They emailed me a "sneak" peak........I have a flat panel monitor - so sometimes it distorts images - so I'm withholding judgement until I see the loose proofs in person. But please notice that this news falls under the title of "not cool news".........

And the day job.......there is not cool news there too. Although some things are best not posted on the internet.......

Here's to a better Saturday!!!!!!!
