Eggs Way v2

[Jenny]

Eggbeater.. How is you? Me is good in Stains (seen Ali G )..
I'm actually supprised by the fact that you meditate.. I would never guess that.. But how do you ACTUALLY do it.. Just like try to think of skys and flowers (or in your case running and kickboxing.. ) and feeling your body relaxing.. I'll try tonight.. I'll think of chocolate uhm oats and cardio I mean..

I don't think you speak very nicely about your girlfriend(s) .. You're just a big player, aren't you?

Hope you had a good time in Corsica!

[Eggs]

Pffft, if I was a player I wouldnt be taking my ex to another island to go sight seeing.

Nope, when you meditate dont concentrate (well, some people have to, specially if your mind is prone to wanderings). Just lightly close your eyes, get in a comfortable position, and let thoughts come and go as they will. Dont encourage them... some will stay and play in your mind a bit, some will leave. Breath deeply, try to breath into your stomach instead of upper chest... slow, deep breaths, in through the nose (tongue on roof of mouth) out through the mouth (tongue on floor of mouth). Half of meditation is in the breathing and being comfortable.

Surprised that I meditate? Now whats that supposed to mean

Well, I need some breakfast. If you need any help just tell me. Ever thought of starting yoga? Its actually pretty fun (though I dont do it nearly enough). Great for the body.

 

[Jenny]

Wow.. that is so nice of you.. taking your ex(who's fault was that?? huh?) to a warm and beautiful island with lots of sun just relaxing.. I understand it must be very hard for you.. baaahh..

I'll try that meditating thing.. Not now though.. I'll just fall asleep.. I tried the breathing some.. Uhm, I think I need some practise.. Didn't feel very natural..

 

[Eggs]

Hehe, it takes a bit of time to get used to breathing like that, because we dont normally do it.

Heading to the gym, have a chest-shoulders-triceps workout to do then will head out to dinner with some friends.

Anyhow, have a good one.

 

[lina]

Eggs, Have fun on your trip... Yeah as NG said must be hard on you or her.... dunno the history there.... but you can not help but think 'WHAT IF?' right...????

Congrats on finishing up your last wk in the military.... so what are you planning on studying?

 

[Eggs]

Well... nah, it wasnt bad taking my ex to Corsica, but she annoys me at times. Partially why we broke up, that and the fact that I am not very good at "expressing my emotions". I liked talking with her and stuff and she was pretty intelligent (in a liberal feminist sort of way, go figure, I like a challenge), but she annoyed me quite a bit which closed me off to the relationship. Go figure, I'm a Gemini.

Anyways, stressed the left rotator cuff last work out a bit so I am doing back and biceps domani. Was a great workout, but the next day I could hardly lift my arm. Feeling alot better now, but figured one more day for it to heal wouldnt hurt.

Lina - Studying International Business. Starting out at a community college to knock out the lower level credit hours then will move on to a University. Plus, I need some time to relax after the past five years

Ciao

 

[Eggs]

I'm catching a flight tomorrow morning and heading to Chicago. Talk to you all when I get some computer access... might be a bit.

Ciao!

 

[LAM]

Congrats Eggs !

Welcome back to civilian life...

 

[kuso]

Congratulations bud

Hurry up and get a pc hooked up and get your ass in chat

 

[lina]

Hi Eggs,

Hope you had fun on your trip! Welcome home!
Hey from one fickle Gemini to another!!
Good luck with your new endeavour in school...

 

[Jenny]

Hi Egg-plant!

I know you're not back yet, but I'm bored at work and I saw this little baby was in a need to be bumped.. ok, so now I'm supposed to really wriiite something? Darn.. I'm all blank.. No, I'll just wait til you get your a$$ back here.. And when you are, I think it is about goddamn time for you to post some pics! We can trade.. I've got a new cheer-pic.. it's old, but I just got it.. So what do you say, are you a buisness man or not??

 

[Eggs]

LAM - Thanks! One more week of outprocessing then its all done.

Kuso - Yep, I think I can hop on chat now... will have to give it a try.

Lina - You're a Gemini? Thats cool, or sometimes not Of course its never boring.

NG - You've got a deal! I'm sure I'll be able to dig some up here, kept forgetting last time I promised. What can I say, I suck.

Did a nice little combo workout yesterday that was meant to be total body. I havent been able to get in the gym for the past week or so and figured I'd do a total body yesterday and start again into the normal routine next week.

Today did an hour of Power Yoga (Rodney Yee), pretty nice, I've never seen his productions before but it was enjoyable. Was a bit stiff from yesterday but I think thats all gone now. Oh, and went out for sushi for lunch.

 

[LAM]

Cool Eggs !

I've got the same thing by Rodney Lee that workout is no joke ! he moves so fast through the routine...

 

[lina]

Yep, I'm a Gemini too! Double personalities.... Never know what to expect! LOL!

Power Yoga, eh? I have seen him on TV and looks like he is pretty good.

Hey, see any marks on you this morning? yummy eggs...

 

[Jenny]

Hey Egg-roll (I had to think for a while to come up with that one..

How's life in Chicago? Glad to be back? catching up with friends and family?

I'm at work.. trying to get time to get by a little faster.. 26 days until I leave for Rome.. I'm scared..

 

[Eggs]

Yeah, Rodney has some pretty good stuff it seems. I'll have to branch out a bit though, I want to get into Yoga thats on the freakier side of the biz. I mean, stuff thats a completely intense workout.

Yeah Lina, I've got this bite mark on my necks, whats up with that? *evil* Geminis have all the fun

Ooooh, Egg-Roll huh? Original. Actually, I think thats the first time that I have ever been called that *scratches head* Thats what I call it when I have a gut, an egg roll Only 26 days huh? Dont be scared, you'll have a blast. They'll probably have to drag you back... I know I want to go back. Of course its going to be probably two years until I can get back, next year I think I'm doing the Orient. (Eggs Eats Europe... just popped into my mind, definitely sounds like a gay xxx film. Okay, that sick. What goes with Eggs doing the Orient? But all in Es, like Debbie does Dallas. Yes, I'm lame). You are going to be so busy in Rome that you wont even think about us poor IM friends that you have. *sniffle*

Did a little sprint workout Monday and that was nice. Finished off with an hour long deep tissue massage. Felt great, hurt much.

Today did chest, shoulders and triceps. The gym on base doesnt allow dead lifts or clean and presses (basically any "olympic lift") How sucky they are.

Thats all for now, only a couple more days till I am off the base and back home. Ahhh, the sweet smell of freedom.

 

[Jenny]

Oh this SO SUX I just wrote a long reply and I got logged out!!!

So I'll guess I'll write a shorter version of it..
You call that fat an egg-roll?? ooops.. guess I was being pretty rude then... sorry.. but on the other hand, you're guilty until proven innocent!!

The orient ,huh? that sounds like a lot of fun! I want to go there too! I think I'll join Rob on one of his buisness trips!

Anyways, hope you're able to get home soon, I bet your family misses you!

Take care,
NG

 

[Eggs]

Went for a jog yesterday. I think it was 9 miles. Never ran that trail before, but it was nice. I think that air here in the Great Lakes region is a bit different than I am used to.

Ran past these girls that were walking to the train station and one of the said to her friend "Damn" as I ran by. So either my back is hideous or a bunch of 16 yr old girls find me attractive.

Today is back and biceps.

I'm looking forward to it.

 

[Jenny]

Now who's being rude??? Not a SINGLE comment to my post!! at least a "Hi" would be nice.. you suck

 

[Eggs]

Ooops, didnt expect you to be on at this time... and uh, well, okay that excuse sucked.

Hi NG! Fancy seeing you around here Hmm, the short version huh? Well, I want the long one! Actually, I've never had a pet name for any of my body parts, even my, uh, fat rolls. But eggroll does sound like it would fit the part if I were going to call anything that.

Where are you thinking of going in the Orient? You would probably like the Phillipines alot (I have friends that go there quite often), and there are alot more places. What time do you plan on being there? I'm going to mooch the trip off my dad if possible, its only fair, I was born there and he hasnt taken me back to visit my birthplace yet (Korea that is, not PI).

Yep, cant wait to get home for good. I'm really just looking forward to starting college. I'm a bit of a nerd that way... but I like the physical aspects of life too. So I guess I'm not a true nerd. But you're a nerd Big time. Okay, not really, but still.

I am skipping back and biceps and will do it tomorrow. Today I am going to the mall and am going to just relax.

See, I even wrote you a long message

 

[Jenny]

Nerd? Who, me?

*imagine a reading smiley..*

 

[Eggs]

Heh

Okay, 20 minutes of Power Yoga this morning... wasnt much, but just needed to stretch out a bit as yesterday was back and biceps.

Perhaps I'll do 4-5 miles tonight when I get home... sounds like fun, guess we'll see.

 

[lina]

Hi Eggs,

You born in the Orient, eh? Very interesting travels you do have! Go ahead, smooch that trip if you can... hey, I'm still smooching off my mom now and then... every bit goes a long way...

Do you speak any Korean or were you just born there and then whisked away shortly after?

Hey, if you ran by me I'd say "Damn" too!!! Nice compliment... !!!

 

[Eggs]

Thanks Lina

Nope, no Korean, we left when I was 11 months old. Havent really lived in the Orient since then either, perhaps I'll be able to. Already lived in the South Pacific, US and Europe. I certainly dont have any complaint that either, its been fun.

If I ran past you I'd trip and fall on my face. See, I'm all about the non verbal communication

Went to a Renaissance Fair today. Alot of fun, I enjoy them because people from all over the US work there, and alot of extroverts... so its always a fun time.

No run, maybe yoga and tennis tomorrow though. Temps a bit warm, but I hope so.

 

[Eggs]

Well, yesterday I messed up my knee a little bit climbing a tree...

No, nothing silly, just triming a willow and had to climb up in it, then managed to twist my knee because I was hanging upside down from a branch. Okay, it was a bit silly... you'd think as I got older I'd learn.

No such luck here. Probably going to take a few weeks off of lifting, between going to canada and heading to Maryland to help my grandmother move after that, I just wont be around for the next three weeks. Will just do running, yoga and body weight exercises (push-ups, sit-ups, etc). Looking into Tai Chi Chuan... the book I have on it is interesting, cant wait to actually know something about it, hehe.

 

[lina]

Hey Eggy!

Boohoo bout your knee! Trying to be like Tarzan huh? Once an egg, always an egg so quit trying... Humpty! OK?

Canada and Maryland, eh? Have fun visiting! What a nice grandson you are! See you when you get back!

 

[Eggs]

Oooh, three hundred posts... and its only taken me like 5 months

Knee is feeling better now Lina! Me Eggs, you Lina... wanna come and climb some trees wit me? Had to climb some more willows today, spent about 4 hours hanging on to trees branches, heh... had one break at about 25ft, thought I was going to do the humpty dumpty scene. Would you come and put me back together again? Caught on with a leg and hand as I dropped (only went down about a foot), but it was the most exciting thing thats happened today. Except for the sushi that I had for dinner... exceptional. Is it just me or is food like one of the best things ever. Atleast really good food is.

You guys see the article about the fat dude suing a fast food joint because he became addicted to the food and it made him fat? No... pretty messed up. Sorry dude, you are fat because you are pathetic, not because of the food they sell. Making excuses wont make you thin, it will just put you in the paper so everybody else will know what a fat pathetic shit you are... thanks, come again.

Oh yeah, did a run yesterday... 3.5 miles, not too far but it was nice. Then last night I took my dogs for a run in the dog park and we did some sprints and stuff. Fortunately they didnt chew me up too much

Today... well today was spent up in the trees so I got a little upper chest workout, and then tonight I went for a little 1 mile jog with my sister. Trying to get the family into shape, they are naturally pretty thin, but they can do better than that!

Going up to Canada on Saturday... cant wait!

 

[Eggs]

Back from the Montreal River... beautiful. Tired, need some rest. Will write more later.

 

[Dero]

Good,you did not bang your head on one of those rockface!!!
Waiting for the exploits stories!!
Later Dude!!

 

[Eggs]

Haha, funny enough, I just wrote a long message and it got deleted

Anyhow, what I was trying to express was that I am going to take a sabbatical from IM. Nope, this isnt anyones fault, life has just too busy and I need to stay focused on other stuff. I'll probably drop by now and then and drop a note in the journals that I normally do, but I wont be journalling for myself or whatever else. Its been fun, thanks all for making this a super cool place to hang out at.

Hrm, my last message contained what I had done on the Montreal River... either way, it was a blast and I'd recommend that area to any of you who like to kayak or hike. The green of the vegetation, the rushing waters, the mists that gather between hill/mountain tops late night and early morning... just beautiful all around.

Yo Dero, just so you know... I did knock my nogging coming down a natural waterslide. Had a nice lump on my forehead and then another bigger one on the read of me noggin. Ah well, as my dad used to say "Pain builds character son" or something like that.

Later all!
Eggs
