Fun Facts Friday - The Non-Movie Buff

Fun Facts Friday - The Non-Movie Buff
Can I get a high five or a "hell yes" for Friday Rest Day?! Definitely ready for the rest day today. I don't think I could have cranked out one more mile, lifted one more weight, or done one more standing climb (spin class). Heck, abs seem like too much work ;-)

We don't really have anything special going on today. Just a typical Friday for us really. We're so exciting I know you're all jealous. Chances are we'll have Pizza Friday and maybe (but not likely) watch a movie. We did actually watch Phoebe in Wonderland last night. I really enjoyed that one.

...And this of course is my segue into Fun Facts Friday.

"...it's Friday; you ain't got no job... and you ain't got shit to do." Ok, so that's not totally true at all, but it's one of the few movie quotes I know (from Friday).

I am not really a movie buff at all. I almost never remember the names of movies, let alone quotes - unless it's from the 80's or 90's as Jason would interject. I almost envy people who can rattle off movie quotes. I sort of feel left out to be honest. How is it that I can't remember any movie lines?

Jason, however, really enjoys watching movies - though he's not a movie quoter either thankfully. I just have a hard time sitting still for that long. It really has to grab my attention or it just seems like such a waste of time. And maybe that's it, my mind is elsewhere so I miss out on fun lines and quips.

So, for Fun Facts Friday, I thought I'd list out the movies that I actually have seen more than once, that I can quote lines from even. They may not be the best movies, definitely not all classics either, but for whatever reason, I latched onto them. Which is really kind of funny considering how I typically feel about movies.
  • Pretty Woman - Slippery little suckers (snail scene at restaurant) or I've got a runner in my pantyhose...I'm not wearing any pantyhose.
  • Friday - see quote above of course.
  • Heathers - I'll forever know the word "myriad" because of this movie.
  • Funny Farm - seriously love the scene where she eats the last apple that she said didn't exist.
  • Reality Bites - Don't boggart the can...man...
  • Pirates of the Caribbean (1-3, love me some Johnny) - RUM
So, are you a repeat movie watcher? Are you a movie quoting guru? Or, what's some cheesy movie you'll admit to rewatching???

Daily To-Enjoy List
Friday is just one big "to-enjoy" isn't it?
  • Movie with hubby (watched Phoebe in Wonderland last night)
  • Rest day (definitely enjoying this)
  • Pizza Friday
  • Pool lounging time

Hump Day and More Pineapples

Full-Body Workout  I'll readily admit that getting up this morning was quite painful and almost didn't happen. I forced myself out of bed though not exactly excited about tackling a full-body Pyramid workout. Sort of daunting at 5 am really. I did the warm up from Shock Cardio Cardio Core Circuit (cardio only premix) then hit the weights. It was a pyramid up only so I increased my starting weight. I topped it all off with the first 2 1/2 drills from the cardio workout. I ran short on time and was basically spent. Squats into Plie Squats Step Ups (seriously hate these especially at 5:30 am) Incline Chest Flyes into Chest Press Pullovers into DB Underhand Rows Step Ups (freaking again) Static Lunges Overhead DB Press into Lateral Raises Deadlifts Kickbacks into Overhead Extensions Hammer Curls into Alternating Curls Calf Raises I am so excited to report that my new cross-trainers and running shoes arrived today. Can't wait to test both of them out. I waited way way way too

Hitting the Gym and Lazy Means Creative Tex-Mex Creation

Sunday, Gym Day Why do vacations and min-vacations go by so quickly? Just doesn't seem quite right. Anyway, we left Branson around 9:30 am to head back home. It was a pretty uneventful drive back, which is usually a good thing. We got home and unpacked, then I headed up to the gym. I started with a 10-minute treadmill run to warm up before hitting the weights for back and light legs then abs. I went with a giant set for back then supersets for legs. GS - 4x8 Underhand barbell rows Pullovers Double-arm rows SS#1 Rear-leg elevated lunges (Bulgarian Split Squats) - 3x8 Calf raises - 3x20 SS#2 - 2x8 Walking lunges Plie squats with low-end pulse Single-leg deadlifts - 2x8 I did some ab exercises, stretched, and called it quits. Lazy = Crazy Dinner I may have made it to the gym and washed a few loads of laundry, but I never made it to the grocery store - lounging in the pool trumped grocery shopping. This meant getting creative with dinner. We had another package
