Another Year

So here we are 2011.  I haven't logged on here in a while.  I guess it is time I do a recap of the rest of 2010.

I spent most of my August - December working out with two trainers.  Donny and Minter.  Donny is a 6'5" black ex football player and Minter is a 5'9" ex model current actress.  I would work out with Donny on Wed and Sundays along with Aaron where we would do circuit style workouts and then 2 other days of the week that we could arrange a day I'd meet with Minter at the park or doing Pilates or Power Plate.  I learned all of these different exercises and for the first time in my life I can actually say I have arm muscles and not only like a bicep my arm muscles are starting to become defined so you can see a little definition.  My first workout with Donny my asthma was terrible I could barely walk a 2.5 on the treadmill without getting fatigued and forget the other things.  Now 5 months later I'm down a size in clothing and I walk comfortably at a 3.3 on the treadmill and I now call these two very different people my torture managers and my friends.

I was able to go home for Christmas holidays which led to seeing many old family members and my cousin's new baby!  He is a kid after my own heart as he slept the whole time I was there.  My parents spent most of their time with me watching television trying to get me caught up on Mike and Molly and Big Bang Theory neither of which I watch on a regular basis.  Just when I was sure I could not take another day of seeing if Sheldon was going to have coitus with Amy Farrah Fawcett or whatever her name was I was given a reprieve and allowed to return to LA.  My flight was not without its own bit of drama when a woman either choked on a snack cracker or she had a stroke causing her to choke on a snack cracker but it all led to flight attendants asking if there was a doctor on board and thankfully there were 2.  They got her breathing and conscience and somehow we managed to make it to LA where paramedics took over.

I was lucky to ring in the new year with good friends and way too many appetizers and I'm ready to start this 2011 with a bang!
