I swear my gym does stupid thing along with some of it's members. Ok so my gym is staffing the club the last two saturdays in July for tanning. Yes the last part of July for tanning. Now up here in Wisconsin August isn't exactly the go out on the beach month. If you are going to offer extra tanning then you should have probably done it in June. More people would have probably jumped on it. Plus do that many people at the gym really use tanning that you have to add extra time slots?
The other thing is I have no clue why members insist on leaving the gym a mess and that's exactly what they do. Today a 100lb dumbell was left out. This staff was left out and a notebook was left behind. How the hell do you leave your notebook with all of your workouts in it? And if it's not notebooks it's waterbottles. There was actually a weightlifting belt left out. I've seen towels left behind. I just don't understand people.
The other thing I don't get. Why do people drive all the way over to the gym to use the bathroom or change. No I'm so not kidding. That happened this morning. This couple drives all the way over to the gym to come in and change. Why can't you change at work? Or how about changing before you leave the house?
The other weird thing is pretty much every morning this woman pulls into the parking lot and talks to someone on her cellphone for anywhere between 10-30 minutes. We all think she's having an affair. The reason being that there are tons of places where you could park. Why do you have to park in the gym parking lot. Plus why can't you have the conversation in the gym or anywhere else for that matter. The reason is that you are having an affair and you don't want anyone in the gym to hear you because they may know your husband. You park in the gym parking lot just in case your husband or his friends might drive by and see you there. Honestly it's just pathetic. One day you will get caught because one day someone will see your car. Park it and see that you are parked there and on the phone. And they'll catch you again and again and the word will get out.

Not my day
Yesterday was clearly not my day. 1. turns out that the oil leak from my car is a small problem, but they then noticed a bigger problem which (shocker) is much more expensive. If this was a newer car that I plan on driving for years then I would have no problems with this, but sadly it's a 1993 car. Not of course working. 2. the part they needed wasn't available and the only one that is would cost an extra $50 which of course I'm not doing. So by this time I got a stress headache. Luckily I was doing better until I got 3. another use to. If you recall I call people that are stuck on how they use to look, what they use to do, and anything else that keeps them in the past. This guy comes in. Here let me set the scene. He comes in and he has no front teeth on the bottom half of his jaw. He is fat. He is drinking a huge soda. His son comes in chatting on a blue tooth. Well he comes in and acts like he knows what he's talking about. He then says what protein do you have for before and after workouts. I said well you don't want to take protein before hand. He says Uhhh yeah you do. I responded saying that the body does use up energy to digest that protein which could be used from workouts. And it's not just me saying this. Pretty much anyone in sports nutrition will tell you to not have a protein shake before hand unless it's like 2-3 hours before. That way your body can digest it and not waste the energy. That's why there are pre-workouts. Anyway so his son is like he use to be a bodybuilder and he says I use to be a bodybuilder. This is where I really had to bite my tongue. I wanted to say. Oh you use to be a bodybuilder. Well clearly you aren't now. I use to be 4' 3" and weigh less than 100 lbs. Doesn't make me a diet expert. As he was leaving my boss heard him tell his son that I didn't know what I was talking about. Well here is the thing I know what I'm talking about. He knows what he's talking about back in the day. Back in the day the thought was you need protein all the time. Yeah can you still build muscle taking protein before hand yeah you can. It's just you are going to be tired and not last as long so it will take longer. It's why I don't like talking to use tos. They are unable to realize that things change because science gets better. More research has been done on the body since they use to be bodybuilders or workout or play sports. Was not my day.

Deja Vu
The Casey Anthony case is for sure another case of OJ Simpson. I honestly told my roommate yesterday that this case is just like the OJ Simpson case. When saying that I meant that everyone is glued to the tv and twitter and facebook watching it. Well of course later on in the day the Jury found her not guilty which of course made me think wow how accurate was I on that. With the OJ trial I was so young that I don't remember all the details. I remember the televised chase in the white van and remember the trial being all over the news, but I don't remember specifics. Well this one I sure do. There are so many things that we all have questions about.
For one we all want to know what happened to Caylee. The thing is the prosecution couldn't really prove that Casey did it without a shadow of a doubt, but the defense didn't prove it was an accidental drowning either. I don't think we will know what happened until years later when Casey writes a book saying I didn't do it, but if I did here's how I'd do it. The not knowing part is what is going to haunt all of us. This poor little two year old died and no one knows how or why. If Casey did do it, then she has to live with that the rest of her life and after life. If she didn't do it then I must say she truly is twisted to have partied for 31 days while she was "grieving". Plus the parents must just be hurt. They lost their granddaughter and there will always be that nagging feeling that their daughter had something to do with it.
Next is what will happen to the family. I can't imagine that everything is just going to go back to normal. There is no doubt that Casey will not be able to go home. Not after saying her father and brother abused and raped her. At the same time I know they are torn because they are her parents. The sad thing is that Casey Anthony will be a rich woman when this is all said and done. She will get movie deals, a reality show, interviews, etc. That's the part I think doesn't sit well with people. Most of us get this feeling she did have something to do with her daughter's death, and in a way she will profit off it. That's the thing that makes me sick to my stomach. That there are hard working people out there that love and care for their kids and barely make enough to feed them, cloth them, and keep a roof over their head. This woman loses her daughter, is in jail for 3 years, has a very public trial, and comes out scott free and a millionaire. That's our country for you. The twisted become rich while the ones with morals suffer.
The other thing that bothers me is that there are people that assume since she was found not guilty that they believed the defense. No I don't think that's the case. I think that they didn't see evidence that put zero doubt in their heads that she did it. I don't think they believed the defense. It was a long shot to begin with and they showed no evidence to really prove it. I think the real reason she got off is because we (as a nation) are so obsessed with CSI and Criminal Minds, and Law and Order where they are so cut and dry. Everything fits together in the end. Real life isn't like that. It kinda shows that unless there is a recording of you doing it or every single thing shows you did it you won't be found guilty. Yeah that sounds dandy, but the thing is people do crimes and sometimes there is little evidence to prove that they did. Anyway the point is that the Jury did not say that they believed the defense's theory, they simply said she was not guilty. That means that based on the case the prosecution put forward did not put zero doubt in every single jurors mind. Don't ever get the two confused.
Lastly don't help this woman. Do not let this woman profit off her child's death. One tweet I retweeted said it well. By JSJakaDukeNukem "PLEASE DON'T buy magazines with Casey Anthony on the cover, DON'T watch movies about her, DON'T buy her book, DO NOT SUPPORT this insanity!" Just flat out don't let this woman make a penny of this. It's just flat out wrong.

Long 4th
It was a majorly long 4th for me. Well felt long, but really wasn't. Went to the gym and it was actually a lot busier than I thought it was. A trainer and her client was there. Also another lady was there. Luckily none of them bothered me on my chest day. When I got home I said screw it with my lizards. Then closer to lunch me and my roommate went to a craft store where we got tons more paints and crafts. So after lunch I stared on one of them. Took me 3 hours to complete without a break. Basically it's one of those 3-D puzzles.
I want to point out that the blox sais it was for 6+. So I figured it couldn't be too complicated. Well it was because the instructions don't exist. Basically they give you something on the back that has all the pieces numbered and you have to try to find the piece with the same number. And the only thing you have to look at to see if you are doing it right is the front image so it's very easy to do something wrong and not realize you did it wrong until the very end. Plus the wood is very flimsy so it easily breaks. By the time I finished I was ready to throw it up against the wall.

After that I was kinda pissy so my roommate suggested I just relax and watch the After the Catch special I recorded. Well I did and it calmed me down. I then also ate something and watched some of the Twilight Zone marathon. Then watched a DVD and went to bed. The part that seemed long was of course that puzzle.

The final countdown
In a week I'm heading back to texas for a visit. I'm so excited, but flying always makes me nervous. Just because lately you've been hearing about all these issues with flight. I will say they've only really been with Delta and Southwest who I'm not flying with. Especially Delta. Ugh Delta has to be the worst airline ever. The last 4 times I flew with them there were delays or horrible customer service or something. Just not worth flying with them again.
I'm also doing my PCT now. I will say I had the best sleep last night. Still had some strange dreams. Something about Scooby Doo, Teen Wolf, Rugrats, a new Nickelodeon show that I apparently made up, and creepy elves. Yep weird.

Day 30
Today is the final day of my cycle. Seems it took forever to get here. Last night I had a great night sleep. Apparently there was a bad storm and I didn't even realize it. So tomorrow starts my PCT and that should be fun. I'll also make sure I don't get sick.

Day 29
Tomorrow is my last day on my pro-hormone then I get to do my pct. I'm kinda excited, but nervous. Mainly because I have to find some new thing to blog about. It's also been an up and down road. My legs are starting to feel better. Hopefully when I do this next week it won't take so long to recover. The first time is always the hardest.
