Rumblings....

Well today is  yet another Thursday, you know what that means WEIGH IN DAY.... Well I went into it thinking I have to lose at least .4 lbs this week... I had a couple rough days in meaning friday with my friend Jack Honey and Mr. Walker haha But I thought I ran 20 miles from Sunday to Wednesday so I SHOULD at least loose 4 tenths of a pound maybe more... Well I got on the scale and seen 2 pounds gone! Yes buddy 2 whole lbs gone. Yea call it water weight or whatever but 2 lbs!!!! Just think what I can do if I didnt drink... (I am on to something here) now lets not get drastic here... I still like my booze as much as the next guy or gal but lets try a test..

My Test this week....
NO booze week/weekend...
I know I sound like someone with a problem, really I don't I have a few with friends after work on Fridays or Saturdays but I have not had any since last friday. Lets see if I loose anymore weight with not consuming any alcohol!!! Next thursday we will see how weigh in goes...

Ok now a few rumblings and ramblings........

Topic 1 - Albert "SHOW ME THE MONEY" Pujols
Well today big Albert went from its not about the money after winning a 2nd world series with the Cardinals to SHOW ME THE MONEY (in my best Tom Cruise voice)... We (cardinal nation) will move on and pick ourselves up and get back to the playoffs, I mean come on it's not like we are the Cubs... (haha had tho throw it in there) But when a guy goes and says one thing and does another thats backstabbing and more power to people that do it, just not how I operate... So Mr. Pujols, I wish you the best, I hope you continue to play at that high level and show the American League why you were the Class of the National League.

Topic 2 - Who decides they want to play Santa at the mall? Cmon Man Really????
dI know I shouldn't think like this but cmon man... If you think about it who wakes up one morning and goes you know what I think Ill apply to be Santa this year at the mall. I can not wait to get peed on, puked on, screaming kids to cry on my lap and have tons of pics with me looking like a deer in the headlights in 79% of them... From popular belief Santa does not pay its a donation of time so well now you just have a old man wanting kids to sit on his lap/?? wtf. haha I wonder how many stinky diapers he has to smell, how many kids piss all over him and he does this for what the FUN of it? I can see being santa if you had a few sexy elfs working with you, but here in Central Illinois the elfs resemble a fat pork-rind eating linemen from the scout team (the program quote). I am no-one to judge just dont ask me to be santa anytime soon. Those of you that are please grow a real beard the fake one just looks cheap! haha Merry Christmas

Ramblings....

Don't you hate when you go to the gym and all the treadmills are busy and you cant run outside becasue well its 20º out there, and there is a person walking 1 mph and reading a magazine, texting, or even better EATING A DAMN TWINKIE.... while you stand there and wait for one to open up!

My damn knee aches... they don't hurt Sunday-Wednesday but that Thursday 40 min run makes me feel like an 80 year old man!

Sushi Fridays are my favorite lunches. Tuna Roll, Salmon Roll, Yellow Tail Roll... Damn glad tomorrow is Friday!

Its time for NATIONAL LAMPOON'S CHRISTMAS VACATION... that movie cracks me up still! Everyone has a cousin eddie in the family, whos is yours?

Parmesan Pizza Crust

3/4 – 1 cup lukewarm water

In a large bowl combine flour, salt, yeast and parmesan cheese. Mix with a spoon and create a well in the middle. Add in 3/4 cups water, honey and olive oil. Stir with a spoon until dough comes together. 

Continue to form into a ball with your hands. If more water is needed, add it by the tablespoon.

Knead dough for 1-2 minutes before placing it in a lightly oiled bowl and covering. Let rise for 1 1/2-2 hours.
