Week 2, Day 3 - Erik

So, I just finished disc 3 "Shoulders & Arms" and it's really hard to type. My arms feel SO heavy, like they're going to smoosh my laptop. Forget about all of the proper typing form that I learned WAY back in highschool. That's for little wimps with small, weak arms. I'm beefy!!

Mmmm...beef. I'm SO hungry right now. I guess I'll grab something to eat. Probably going to have some tuna fish with some crackers and cheese and maybe some hummus with carrots. Then, I'll top it off with a nice cold one. Hahah!! Just kidding. Water is it, I guess. B-o-r-i-n-g!!

I'm rocking out to Kings of Leon right now. This album, Only By The Night, is AMAZING. Why didn't I get this before now? I first heard of these guys over a year ago when they played at Bonnaroo. I didn't go, but a friend did and told me about how good they were. I sampled some stuff, but wasn't really feeling it then. I must have been deaf!

Hey! What am I doing? Writing a review for the Kings of Leon?! No! This is a P90X blog, dang it!! I have a tendency of overusing exclamation points! Sheesh!! I just can't end a sentence with a period! What's wrong with me?!!

Okay...enough rambling. Just wanted to say that I finished the workout for today. I actually also did the bonus stuff for this workout and also did the Ab Ripper X stuff afterward. Woof! I hope you brought it on this one, Christopher. I can't wait for Kenpo X. Gotta get mine in early before the big food coma I'm likely going to put myself in for Turkey Day!

It's Still Rotten Hole To Me

I've created a new post for this song. Christopher started with the first half of verse 1 and I completed the verse. We're going back and forth to complete the entire song. This will be the first song for our parody "band", Across The Pond.

It's Still Rotten Hole To Me
(To the Tune of It's Still Rock and Roll to Me)

VERSE 1

What's the matter with the poop I'm dropping
Can't you tell that it stinks so much
What's the matter with the gas I'm popping
Can't you see I just lost my lunch?

I don't remember eating anything crazy
What did you put in chili we ate, baby
Oh no, plug your nose, watch out, here it goes
It's still rotten hole to me

VERSE 2


BRIDGE


VERSE 3


BUTT TRUMPET SOLO (Instead of saxophone)


VERSE 4

The Beginning

P90X

I'll let you absorb that for a second.

P90X...a workout so intense, it can only be described like a plane's call sign.

As I sit here, having completed two weeks (albeit erroneously...always read the instructions, children...they are there for a reason), my legs ache, my shoulders burn, and there is a strange feeling deep in my groin that I have never felt before...I think it's called pride...nope, groin ache... Nevertheless, as has been posted previously, let this humble online tapestry serve as the repository of the journey, nay the sojourn, towards buffness! (Starting properly monday...D@%N directions!

As Erik and I talked about, we shall also be working on songs that we find funny. It would be nice if you did as well, dear readers, but not necessary (please read: you are redundant). Here is the start of one that popped to mind at work the other day about the funniest of natural processes: The Flatuate

(To the Tune of It's Still Rock and Roll to Me)

What's the matter with the poop I'm dropping
Can't you tell that it stinks so much
What's the matter with the gas I'm popping
Can't you see I just lost my lunch?

Erik...I shall let you continue...

BRING IT!!!!!

Hello World

I feel like I'm programming in C++ back in college again! This is just a test blog post to make sure that my partner in crime, Christopher, gets a notification.

It's alive, my friend! It's ALIIIIVE!!!

We'll be using this blog to talk about how much we suck at P90X, maybe write a few songs and just talk smack about how each other's country is better than the others.

Oh yeah, did I mention that Christopher lives in London? Meanwhile I'm stuck here in his hometown of Knoxville, TN. It's common knowledge that Knoxville isn't really known for anything other than being Christopher's hometown.

Well, I guess the only thing I have left to say is...BRING IT!
