Impossible IQ Question

This offensive image came up on a Facebook ad for an IQ test, with the following question: How many eyes in the above image? Most People get this question wrong. Try to beat today's high score.

It's not offensive because it's a fat asian baby. Those cheeks are in fact quite pinch-able. What's offensive about it is that it made my own eyes melt out of my head and roll down my cheeks. That was after having a starting contest with the damned thing...because it eyes SUCKED me in. Horrible.

Review

Running: Back at it again and actually going into it as a champ. A fourth grade playground champion, but I'll take my victories when I can. I guess it's different now, I KNOW I can do it. Although yesterday was a different story. Physically I felt like I could do it, but mentally, I just wasn't there and realistically, everything is a mental battle. I lasted through 2.5 reps and then called it quits. I was simply too tired. We'll see how today fares! I still completed my workout when I got home, so I still get a gold star! That's three for this week so far!

Andrew: I never knew Andrew to be a social awareness kinda guy. Not that I ever thought he didn't care, it's just I always felt like his mind was elsewhere...until you have him going on copyright law. The boy loves the copyright debate LOVES it. And he has a very adamant stance on it. I have to admit, I love it. I love the boy's convictions and principles.

This post: Should be much better, but I'm at work and tired and not really in the mood to blog. I'm in the mood to write, (in my journal or on a sheet of paper that will eventually become my journal) but lately writing has done nothing but make me fall asleep.

My goals for this year: Have been sitting flat, with the exception of working out! I need to get back on the good horse and ride my way into my fantastical sunset of awesomeness.

Tis all for now.

Out of all the muscles in my body....

you would think that after a year+ of solid walking 2miles a day, mixed in with a mild running program at some point, my calves would not be what hurts me the most. Though, here I am with such tight calves that merely flexing them brings me pain. It's annoying. Annoying because I don't want it to stop me from running tonight, the same way it stopped me from walking this morning. A run and a bath seem in order for tonight.

I'm super nervous. I have a theory that nothing good ever comes certified mail...and last night we got a notice about getting something certified mail, but no one was home to receive it. This naturally makes my mind spark up ideas of eviction, lay offs, any sort of bad news you can imagine...all in one letter. Blech I hate it. I hate my paranoia.

I'm way too excited for...

• the options of classes I have for the summer.
  
• the package I'm getting tomorrow.
  
• the lecture on Australopithecus afarensis tomorrow.
• working on HCA stuff this weekend
• lowering my debt
• getting done with the P files for work on Friday
• dinner at Maria's Saturday
• Street Fighter IV Tournament
  
  and most importantly.......

• Running & working out. A bit too excited about it. Kid on Christmas excited! It's not even the losing weight aspect that has me excited. It's the proving to myself that I can do this and seeing how far my body can go. I feel that if I can commit myself to running and working out, I can do anything else I put my mind to. Why? Because honestly, running sucks. Working out sucks. Being sore sucks. The temptation to sit down and not physically exert myself is too great, but if I can get out of my comfort zone and prove to myself that I can do this, then anything else should be cake. It's a challenge and each day that I do run or work out, is a small victory for me. Sure, I'm not saying oh no, I don't want the hottness that comes with it. I honestly can't wait to see my body morph into what I've always felt it should be, but that's really a secondary reward. The first reward is that feeling of accomplishment and for me, that's the runner's high, that's the workout high. Now that my muscles are sore and when I schlep myself to work because my calves are too sore, it's a reminder of my accomplishment. I feel that all this is a big step in helping me break down the wall between who I am know and who I know I can be. I can't wait till I can run for 16 minutes straight again, I can't wait till I can run for 30 minutes straight, I can't wait till I finish my first race, my first marathon, my first triathlon. I can't wait till I can do pullups again, till I can just be completely fit. Along with getting my PhD, I think that has to be one of my biggest life goals and if I can do that, the first one should definitely be cake. School was always easy for me, this is much more difficult.

So that's three gold stars for me this week! Let's put them on the board folks!
