Simulator in use

Well, I just completed my first training day on the ol hangboard.

1. 10 sec dead hang - big slopers
3 pull-ups on jugs (haha... sounds funny

2. 15 sec bent arm hang- large edges (medium edges too hard at this time)
2 pull ups in large 3 finger pockets

3. 10 sec offset hang on two different edges, I chose large and med

4. 15 sec L hang - this is rough... turned into a 15 sec bent knee hang

5. 3 offset pullups Jug and 2 finger pocket and switch for other side

6. 30 sec dead hang - not happening.. more like 15 sec scream...

7. 10 pullups - jugs

I cooled down with 3x10 pushups. This wasn't as bad as I thought. I didn't have any pain at all. I believe that I am going to rest until sunday. All that I have read suggests that tendons take a little longer to heal. Anyway, have a good one...

Cheers

The hangboard commeth

I finally did it my friends. I woke up yesterday, and I thought to myself, I have no cable, nothing is on the 4 channels I have (minus telemundo), and I have all the wood needed to hang the fingerboard that I bought. It took about 3 days to really decide what I wanted to do, but yesterday, I knocked it out in like 2 hours. Mostly by myself, but the neighbor came over and helped finish er off. So, ladies and gents, I give you my overhead storage rack/hangboard mount.

Oh did I fail to mention that today, me paws feel like I got in a fight with a grinding wheel??

a load of stuff...

Snort... you guys are great. This was a much needed weekend of hard labor and work. Although if I ever think of moving again... shoot me. Im just going to sell my house and make sure they are of similar build and bequeth all of my belongings to them.

ugh... my fingers hurt...

other people's lives

well, Im at work... handing out drugs like always. Just thinking about stuff.... here's what I came up with.

You know how everyone always has advice for you whenever you ask for it. I like that. "Hey bro, I was wondering what you thought about this... blah blah blah..." That's always helpful you know. But then there are the people that offer advice without being asked. You know, the person that says, "well you know, you shouldn't do it that way... what you SHOULD be doing is this." or " well that's why I never do that... because you just end up with this". "Hey, you want me to show you how to make that better?" "Well, you go with someone for 6 months, then you get engaged, then you get married, and wait 4 and 17/31 of a month and then you have a boy.... blah blah..."

I personally am tired of hearing "well its time now for yall to either get married or just go your seperate ways." Just because I have career aspirations, baggage from the past, liking having my own opinions and judgement, have a girlfriend that has her own aspirations, reasons, opinions, etc... I'm sick and f-ing tired of people that ask me "so when are yall getting married?" Is my love life the talk of town when Im not in it? Just because I'm not like every other person in this world that graduates high school, gets married, gets knocked up, sits on their keyster, has another kid, starts asking all their friends when they are getting married, so as to spread their misery and perhaps have someone in which to share their misery...???

Now don't get me wrong. I think marriage is a holy institution. I hold it in the highest regard. I have many close friends that did get married right out of high school, and they are some of the happiest people in the world (you know who you are). I pray one day that I am going to share that with my girlfriend.

I am just fed up with this stupid mentality that marriage and kids is the only thing out there. That you are defective if you aren't married and don't want to have kids. "You.... you... aren't married?? You don't want to have kinds?!? Travel?? You'll just be to far from your family. What are you running from? Everything is right here!

Please quote me on this... Anymore questions about marriage, or any more advice on packing or leaving, or anything having to do with MY life... let me repeat that, MY LIFE, and someone's going to get their lips punched off!! hahaha

**stepping off of soap box**

I am having a great day at work... I just gave someone enough drugs for three people, and they took it like a shot of patron. I love this job... sometimes... ha

See you tonight pretty late, Snyder...

cheers

crazy pills

im sitting here at wrk... at about 830 here.

Im going crazy i think...

On to the 3rd semester

Thank you once again gentlemen for your much appreciated prayers. After a bullett-sweating of an afternoon, I came through in true fashion with an 81 of 100. I needed only a 71 to pass with a C, but I'm plenty happy with that. I guess nursing is where God wants me to be afterall. Well, until I see you all again...


CHEERS! SKOL! SLAINTE! NASTROVYA!

Rheumatoid vs Osteoarthritis

If you couldn't tell, I've been studying for a while now. Its 11:48, and my brain is getting to be about the consistency of baby poo, "sniff" without the smell. I'm going to need your prayers lads. Tomorrow is the day. The dreaded final. This decides if I get to go on to this summer, or pack it up and come back next spring. The only problem with a comprehensive final is that there is so much to cover, but so little to know what to cover. We have like 2 or 3 questions from each chapter on the final, and it's impossible to read everything. SO, i guess I'm just doing a blanket read tonight and a little tomorrow morning, and just pray for the best. Anyway, think and pray tomorrow about 3 pm. Until then... I'll call if I die

Cheers

country style pork ribs

Well, I tried my luck on pork ribs this weekend. Didn't come out too bad. I marinated them for about an hour, then oven for about an hour and a half, then grill for 2o to 30 minutes. They were done completely, and not too dry at all. I have to say I think I did well for myself being the first time ever. This meat market that is down the road a bit is quite awesome. I bought 5 1/2 pounds of country style ribs, a 12 pack of beer, an oval link of garlic sausage, a bag of tito's tortilla chips, and 3 ears of corn for 19 bucks. The meat alone was like 10. If you ever get to come down here cody, we can meat poison the whole family. Just ask glenn, its quite tasty. I want to buy a shirt, like the one we got at fishers. OH, THEY SELL FISHER BEER TOO. I saw that today. I would've bought some, but I felt like it would be sacriledge. So I stuck with bud light. Well... I guess its back to the grind. Im going over case studies right now. Not real fun. One of these days cody, I need you to help me come up with something to hang my simulator board in the garage. Until later...



Cheers
