Venus in Furs

I decided to sell my wedding dress.
*sigh*

I just finished an intensive Weight Training course. My head is full of so much good information that it just may explode!
But I'm even more uber-motivated to stay in this industry and I have the starting of a great business plan.

Not to mention, the more courses I take the more really, really fit men I'm surrounded by and it's a treat to watch them demonstrate exercise techniques *eg*

I'll be updating Dangergirl.ca more often and someone please send momentous prayers so I can end this week long affair I've been having with my couch and get my butt back in the gym!

I have PMS.
This is a new thing and I'm not exactly thrilled about it.
Please pass a punching bag and tub of chocolate ice cream?

piscesdreams, the talented photographer, finished the wedding photos. You can find them here!!
They are beeeyooootiful *swoon*

I think I fell off the blogging truck :/
I just don't really know what to say anymore.

Life is good, I'm immersed in my new job as a basic trainer and loving it. I'm seeing the results of my constant workouts, it's slooooooooooooooooooooooow but steady. I'm, well, coming into my own in a huge way.

And my time is filled. I never expected to live a life where I had to book time to see people weeks in advance. I guess that's what a full-time job, fitness craze, family and socially inclined person is going to be in need of doing.

I can't believe the little things that have changed as well, my nails have stayed naturally long for a couple of weeks now, my eczema has almost entirely disappeared. I can flex all of my major muscles and a good number of the supporting ones :D

The most amazing changes are inside my head though, I'm so much more positive, less reactive, assertive and not combative (ok, well not alllll the time), confident.

But I'm still vain and self-absorbed, (ex. above post) :D

This is not what I was going to originally post, I was going to talk about the book I was reading and a little thing on motivation I found, but, guess not *lol*

Ok, not really but I am going to learn Brazilian Jujitsu :D

It's going to be at the Gracie Barra up on Main and Broadway, I just have to figure out when I can commit to it. I was hoping in August but...

It's $150/month which is pretty spendy unless I go at least three times a week.
But by all accounts even though it's a skilled martial art, it's not an effective strength training or cardio exercise. Which means I would have to juggle my 5 days of weight/cardio training in between 3 days of BJJ.

Take a look at the moves though....can you see why I want it, almost badly enough ;)

I watched a movie by myself tonight and I missed Paul so much, I've gotten used to sharing my laughter with him.
