So I have the funkies.

The funkies are best described as my very own personal blues...

Like I said earlier I live a pretty sweet life. Great love, great family, great friends.... but I start to focus on all the imperfections I see in me. Why? I have no idea.

They're so common my husband can now recognize them when they happen. It's pretty normal for me once every few months.... they last a few days, and then I'm done.

Sometimes I'll pop in some real sad songs just for good measure... I'm feeling "Don't Explain" by Billie Holiday... yup, it's a good one.

Maybe I could use more exercise?

*sigh.

So guess who's decided to stop being lazy???

As I was watching The Biggest Loser last night night, I was inspired by how some of these people have managed to push themselves from virtually inactive couch potatoes to these outrageously strong fit people! I mean, they pulled a car for the love of Pete! Since the beginning of this new year I have come to terms with the extra pounds I have gained and realize that at 28, inactive is not what I strive to be! I mean, I have never been a particularly slender person, this is not uncommon information. Although around 12 years old I was a size 3... but in high school I've always been at least 15 pounds over my recommended weight. I'm "five feet of funk" and have always been about 127. For my tiny stature, I should be between 104-115.... but that is just ludicrous to me! Currently I'm around.... lots more than that (see what I did there with the elusiveness?)! While I have always been a pretty confident girl (I AM curvy and fabulous), my issue with my fitness is the la

Fanfare Please! Da, da, da, dah!!!

Or maybe a fanfare wouldn't be the appropriate song for my triumphant return to blogging. I'm not really very royal at all.... it's not like anybody ever mistakes me for a princess or something. Does El Salvador even have a princess? Mayan maybe. :p I've always thought about which songs I'd make my entrance to if I ever became an awesome MMA fighter... lol. Which I TOTALLY could be (Gina Carano anyone?). I have narrowed down to some classics such as Eye of the Tiger (by Survivor), Black Betty (by Spiderbait), Victory (by Puff Daddy), Ether (by Nas), and some newer stuff like Lap Dance (by NERD), and maybe even Beautiful (by Akon)... because let's face it, life is still runway and like RuPaul says "You better work"! (loving this song lately..btw) Okay, okay so I'm off topic already... my point is that through some serious coaching from my friend (thanks Ike ), I'm ready to give this online overgrown diary another chance. Ha ha ha... just kidding

Early Mid-Life Crisis??

Image
Midlife crisis is a term coined in 1965 by Elliott Jaques and used in Western societies to describe a period of dramatic self-doubt that is felt by some individuals in the "middle years" of life, as a result of sensing the passing of youth and the imminence of old age (Thank you Wikipedia). I think I happen to be going through this at 28. Just for some clarity, I have been feeling the huge desire lately that I should be more "established" than I currently am at my age. Why you ask? I don't know, isn't that what is supposed to happen? What do I mean by established? Well let's see, I got married about two years ago to a man I have known since 17 but started dating at 21. My co-workers, mother, father, in-laws, friends.... actually most people in our lives have been ready for me to pop out a child. Yet I'm not even close to feeling prepared for all that! I mean, I love babies, I really do.... but who is gonna pay for its daycare? Where will it sleep? Wh
