random part 1
Leave it to me, Maren, the quirkiest person in the Western Hemisphere to join the quirkiest gym ever. It’s packed at the weirdest times.
Don’t these people ever work?! Don’t these people sleep in on the weekend?!
So I didn’t get off work today until after 4. Normally I get off around 3:30 so I had to skip the gym. Boo! But also a good thing because I got to do my favorite kick boxing DVD! I love feeling like a ninja.
I did the workout which mixes light strength training with high intensity cardio moves. I sweat like a turkey on thanksgiving during this workout. ;-)
This afternoon I enjoyed a new favorite drink. Vitamin Water Zero!
We can buy these at our Costco in 16 bottle flats. So far I love the lemonade and orange flavors. But what I like most about these zero calorie drinks is that they aren’t sweetened with artificial sweeteners, they use stevia!!! Totally awesome.
random part 2: Photo-A-Day May
I saw this everywhere today. On instagram, on twitter, on about a million and four blogs I read.
Doesn’t this look fun? Yesterday was Peace.
That tattoo may, or may not be real…
Today is Skyline… more on that one later. I’m drawing a blank.
random part 3: this is how I blog, yo!
Now you all know I do about 90% of my blogging from an iPad! It’s still easier to get all the coding and blog maintenance done on a “full” computer but I do all my posting, page writing, commenting, reading from my little white iPad named Sparky.
I don’t know where that name came from… it just flew out of my fingers just right now. :mrgreen:
I bought the Zagg and Logitech keyboard. It works through bluetooth which means it will pair with my iPhone and it’s also a nifty little stand. Makes watching movies pretty darn good.
My favorite feature is that the iPad clips into the keyboard to become a case. Awesome!
Tell me about you!!! I want to know…
Do you use a tablet or iPad to blog?
Yes! Maybe I’ll do a post on how I blog from a tablet if you guys would like that!

Glad you found this challenge, I love it already. Your gym sounds super weird, it actually sounds more like the schedule of a college gym. But hey, kickboxing is the best workout and so good for some aggression. I LOVE that vitamin water, they sell it at my school. That is actually the only flavor I like. And whoa… I am jealous of that iPad. I only have my mac laptop to blog on. I would love something fancy like that!
I want a mac laptop so so so badly. I’m envious. Wanna trade ;-)
I think I’ll name my iPad “Spanky” inspired by you. Our iPads are siblings. Evil twins. Sometimes I blog from Spanky, and sometimes not – I usually have to log in to align my photos though – I haven’t found an app that aligns and formats them like I want. What app do you use?
Haha! Spanky and Sparky. Love it! And they are definitely Evil Twins… we can’t ever have them in the same room because the world might implode.
I think I’ll do a post on blogging from the iPad. Might be cool and I know quite a few of my blog friends have them.
As much as I love my iPad, I still use my old (and somewhat craptastic) computer for blogging…yes, a post about iPad blogging would be interesting.
Okay cool maybe I’ll do one. My laptop is a total drag! One day I’ll buy a new one… one day. A girl can dream.
I don’t have an iPad or iPhone! Yikes! haha. Oh well…Someday I hope to get an iPhone at least. I think your setup looks very awesome!
If you do ever get one you will never go back! So definitely take the iPhone plunge at your own risk.
But I 300% recommend it… ;-)
Hmm your gym doees sound weird… like Alex said above, it does sound a bit like a college gym ha
Your set up loos perfect if you ask me!
I know! Here I thought I was super special because I get off work earlier than the typical 5pm so I’d get free reign at the gym but no! Gah.
The orange vitamin water zero is one of my favorites!! Ive tried a couple other flavors but I always go back to that one! Love the photoaday!!
