Tbone's log of glitter and awesomeness

[Tamara Reynolds]

'Twas merely a joke.

If I call someone a name as juvenile as "Dick"-especially a girl-I'm almost definitely kidding.

I know it was a joke. Stop with your fancy use of the word 'twas.

Yet another press PR. I am awesome.

That made me smile. The kind of smile where your eyes almost disappear.

I think I will really enjoy reading your log.

This log of "glitter and awsomeness" is sorely lacking on the glitter part. Just sayin'.

Good. The one thing she needs to linear progress on is her ego.

How is it that you can jerk more than me? I've been jerking all my life. Perhaps I should reevaluate my technique.

She very well may have been jerking all her life as well.

Oh good. I needed you guys to make me smile because I am sitting at home having a pity party. I know I am being totally irrational, but that's just how I get sometimes.

I am really so close to quitting that it is not even funny. I know that I need to give this new programming at least a month, but Pan Ams are next weekend, and I don't want to lift. I really, really don't. This is not fun.

Snatch:
1 x 25 kg
1 x 30 kg
1 x 35 kg
1 x 38 kg
1 x 41 kg
1 x 44 kg
1 x 47 kg
1 x 49 kg - Miss
1 x 49 kg
1 x 51 kg
3 x 1 x 54 kg - Miss. Miss. Miss. PR attempts.

So, that was the first time I've hit anything over 47 since the meet in Durham. I suppose I should be happy with that except that 47, 49, and 51 were ugly. And, I was snatching 51 in October, so big deal.

Squat:
5 x 20 kg
3 x 50 kg
1 x 60 kg
1 x 70 kg
1 x 80 kg
1 x 84 kg

I loaded 87 kg, and then my phone rang, and it was an international call that I needed to answer. By the time I got off the phone, there was no point in trying to hit 87.

Deadlift:
3 x 135 lbs
1 x 155 lbs
1 x 185 lbs
1 x 205 lbs
1 x 225 lbs
1 x 235 lbs
1 x 245 lbs - Not happening

I am anti-positive right now.

I want to go back to the 69 kg weight class. If I am going to suck this badly, then at least let me suck at a lower weight class so that I don't get my ass kicked quite so fucking hard.

What happened with the DL?

You don't need to lose any weight T. Just chill and be patient. It'll come.

What happened with the DL is that I squat and pull 20-30 lbs more in a belt. And, I wasn't wearing a belt because I left my belt in Georgia. I actually ordered a new belt, and it was at my house when I got home. It's purple and very very pretty, and I will post a pic in a second.

I know. I am having a pity party. I am really very stressed about everything else in my life, like opening a gym, and I desperately need a week off. The fact that my coach hasn't fired me yet proves that he is a saint.

[Tamara Reynolds]

Ooo, purple. But, fuck, I do not want to break in a new belt.
