Tony's Demolition and Reconstruction '05

[King Silverback]

Nah, I am good. Nothing wrong. When I finish my workout, I really finish with enough gas in the tank to drive home, not much more. The shaking? It only happens after I lift. It's always happened to me. My arms gets really unsteady but after a little while, it all goes back to normal. How I should have started the story was that right after my workout I walked out of the gym and went to the market next door. Immediately after the workout, when I have basically nothing left...
I had my doc check me out late last year and told me all I had to do was lose weight. It was as if I was 17 again, he said. Do you know how old that made me feel? Man, I am only 35-36 (My birthday is this month, so I'm in transition, je je). That's what they tell my grandma when she goes to the doctor...
Not to worry Arch, this unsteadiness comes from a really hard workout. Thanks for worrying though....

I'll be 36 this May!!! We are not that far apart

Dreams do come true....

My daughter, who's smarter than I thought (she gets that from her mom), is always asking me when we are going to be going to Disney. Myself and her mom always say "when classes end". So, on friday, we picked her up at school and went home to change. I told her we were going shopping. We all got in the car and drove, and drove, and drove...Suddenly as we are on the I4, where you can exit to Lake Buenavista (Disney) and that's when she started to notice. It was very funny, she started saying "I wanna' go to Disney", and she seemed to not like the fact that we drove past the exit and kept going. See, we were going to stay at the Contemporary Hotel, right next to the Magic Kingdom.
When we got there, I told the young lady at the front desk that it was the first time for us and a dream come true for me (which is true) because I had always wanted to stay there but couldn't afford it. I then went on to tell her all about Aly's surprise and how she was so happy to be there. Truth is, I didn't have the best view in the world and was going to be staying in the rooms that are part of the Contemporary but adjacent to the contemporary. The lady asked me why I didn't stay in the tower rooms (the main building in the Contemporary) and I told her I couldn't afford it. She said, to hang on a sec......So whe went to the office inside for a couple of minutes. The lady comes back and says to me "How would you like some Disney Magic? We have put you up in the tower rooms here for the same rate that you paid for the other rooms, and in fact, I am going to try to give you the best possible view of the castle..." She did and that really made my weekend. In fact it made all of our weekends. Fact is, I had planned to say all those things that I said to her (the front desk clerk), which were all true in hopes that it would really be a magical vacation. The fact that it rained all day sunday didn't take away from our happiness....
All in all, our Disney dreams did come true....

Here are some photos of the amazing view that we had from our balcony. The first is, of couse, the castle and the second is Space Mountain....

Brother, that was an awesome story, I could just feel the pride you had when your Daughter's face LIT up!!! Man I hope our visit goes half as good as your sounded. My LilBit keeps askin "When I wake up we go to Disney and see Princessess?" And I feel like such a heel for sayin "Not yet, Soon"

Awesome pics to Brother!!!

Hmmm...so you two are sissies AND geezers!

Glad the trip went well for you Tony. Welcome back.

Aparently I am one of the few people not headed to Disney this year. (We are headed to Branson to the the full sized Thomas train in the summer. I'm still not sure how my wife talked me out of the trip to Ireland I we were supposed to be on right...um...now.)

I am a sissy and on my way to becoming a geezer....I admit it....LOL
Thomas is coming here too to the train museum in Miami...
Oh, and your wife talked you out of the trip because, well, she can...That's old geezer wisdom for you. Don't fight it, just go with the flow, right Arch?

 

[fantasma62]

...and tomorrow we have legs....

... so very true

 

[naturaltan]

it rained one day while we were in Disneyland a few years back. We first thought, ugggh, here we go with our vacation luck. We looked out our window and saw the park filling up with people, so we shrugged our shoulders and said "let us follow the masses". It was the best day of the trip. It was raining but it was so very warm, it didn't matter.

Pylon, the beautiful Miss Sapphire loves us sissies....right coach?

 

[Velvet]

Hi Vel,

Thanks....

Ya, I remember that age..sat michael on the Easter Bunny's lap and he started bawling and punching at it ha ha ha ha ha

 

[fantasma62]

Mr. NT....

So nice to see you "young man". You yourself told me that you were not old......
I have been checking out your pad once in a while.... Pretty interesting stuff...I am currently working on something that resembles that. I am making a web page for my kids and I have a blogger with my thougths, poems, songs or anything that comes to mind. So far I don't have a whole hell of a lot there, but I am working on putting things that were on paper into my computer. The only thing is convincing my wife to relinquish the poems I wrote her back in the day...
Now that I think about it, I haven't written her anything in a while, what an asshole I am....Need to get to writing....
Regarding Disney, in your case, I understand. You come from a cold area of the world and the warmth of Disneyland rain or no rain must have been very welcome by you. In my case, I live 3-4 hours away from Walt Disney World and a rain out makes me feel like I am at home, so I don't welcome it, but still, we made the best of it and enjoyed....

You make me blush......

... I'm just making use of my website as it was a on the spot decision. Really, nothing at all interesting, just making use of it. Maybe one day it will have some kind of benefit for others, until then though, I just randomly put up useless thoughts
But thanks for reading it.
Maybe if I got a guestbook, I could see who was reading it and their TRUE thoughts.

I guess you're right, if you're used to that type of client all the time, then it might be depressing. We get rain here of course, but with it, it's usually chilly enough to bring out the sweaters and coats. There we went out in short sleeve shirts.

I didn't say I was old ... not yet anyways ... just pointing out that I am experienced enough to laugh at the ages being presented

You got that right, I'm a sissy and an old geezer!!! Hows it goin Tony, just got back from the Classic, talk about being fired up and ready to train :bounce:

 

[Velvet]

Hi Tony How was your weekend?

 

[fantasma62]

Hi Arch, Velvet and Cyndi....


Weekend has not been very good. I caught the stomach bug on thursday from Arch and wasn't feeling particularly strong over the weekend. I feel better today but I am being careful with what I am eating...Also, my mind wasn't into weights this week. My mom went thru her first set of chemotherapy for the breast cancer that she has and was feeling pretty shitty all weekend. I wasn't around for the bad, but I basically have called 20 times during the weekend to see what's doing. I may have been physically ready today, but not mentally. I know tomorrow or tuesday she'll be fine as it usually takes 3 days of pure hell before you go back to good again. That's definitely been suck......

Other than that, I did spend time fixing the garage with my wife and we even shot a little bit of hoops in front of my house.

How are you beautiful people and Arch?
