Oh man, just read your email on this. SO INTERESTING. (All the emails back on Monday, I promise!)
I knew you would enjoy those. :)

It’s nice to get the attention but I can’t stand when guys are so clingy and adoring so soon. A girl likes to work for it a little bit. I also hate the whole possesive thing. I know some of it is culture but I’m an independent white girl.
His boss tried to explain to me that he just wants to pamper the women he dates. (We aren’t dating…at...

story time
Rather than continue to be vague, I’ll try to share what I can on the strange territory. It’s just weird. And I guess it’s weird because it’s a different culture that we all assume exists so there shouldn’t be a surprise when it pops up. I stopped to pick up my card last night and learned a bit more about these guys.
Okay…so the 3 demo guys: The boss, the...
Bringin' the laughs for me this morning.

Yeah, that’s right. I used catawampus in an actual sentence. I’m also waiting for the right time to bust out the word ugsome. Although, the case could be made that my inane tumblr posts are ugsome to some. See what I did there. AYYYOHHH!
That’s now my word of the day.

Go with your instincts. If something seems catawampus, chances are, it most likely is.
It’s definitely catawampus. I’m having a “What did I get myself into” kind of moment this morning.
strange territory
So…my BS radar is going off crazy and I don’t know who or what to believe. The more I talk to these 3 demolition guys the more questions I have, but it’s kind of like maybe you shouldn’t be asking these questions. It’s all very bizarre…..

I'll stop after this post...
But, yes, he has been coming to the bar a lot lately…DAILY…waiting to see if I will show up. (That’s why he asked me to come visit more often rather than once or twice a week.) I didn’t get there for dinner last night until 8:30-9:00. He was so worried that I wasn’t going to show up, then excited, then sad again because I ate dinner with the other guy, then excited...
cupofchi replied to your post: He speaks
Oh my god, look at you!
I should say that he gives me butterflies too…however I did laugh at him when he said I looked like a princess. And something corny about my eyes. I’m the worst.

He speaks
I had a last minute request from my runner friend to stop by for dinner at Tele’s, so after an exhausting and long day, a mediocre workout, and a shower, I obliged.
While he and I were talking, Ernesto walked by looking all sad. When he came back in, he brought me this ginormous Valentine’s Day card. He just handed it to me and walked away. (I’d show you a picture, but I forgot...

I didn’t go to the bathroom and take a picture of my muscles YOU DID. I would have DIED if someone walked into the office bathroom and saw me doing this.
For real, those are some killer arms! Now I’m curious what you do at the gym. Spill it!

Sounds perfect. You can bring Ernesto if you want. He can speak spanish with J
I have such a serious crush on him. I mean, why let the fact that he really only speaks Spanish get in the way? HE’S CUTE! And he winked at me in a none creepy kind of way. I need J to be my pocket translator.

running, running...fast as we can
One of the Cali guys wants a running buddy when he’s here for work. He found out I go to the gym and we were talking about cardio. I know that hitting the pavement is more beneficial than the stair stepper/treadmill/elliptical. But I hate running outside. I hate dealing with shin splints. I haven’t run outdoors since high school. (Read all of that as: “I’m a little whiner...

More Gun Show Entries?
Come on, everyone, join in the fun. Gary and I did it. We all have to start somewhere and I KNOW you all workout too. SHOW ME YOUR GUNS!!
Please.

I still think we should be workout buddies. Move here?
If things work out with Ernesto, I’ll quit my job and fly down every other day on his bosses dime just to go to the gym.

Punching in the neck, huh? That’s a new one :)
Hah! I don’t know where it came from or why I started saying it, but it’s just my idle threat to anyone that annoys me.

Quiet Riot, anyone?
Oh, and I met Carlos Cavaso’s cousin last night. He’s one of Ernesto’s co-workers. Nice guy. Apparently, Carlos is coming to my hometown to buy a car on Sunday.

Siéntese aquí, por favor. Hablame en inglés.
Right now, the one thing going for Ernesto is that he has a great smile and gorgeous blue eyes. He honestly does NOT talk. Mostly because he knows very little English. His boss (who is overly sexual…wants to read palms, talking about how a lady should be treated - take her to New York, fly her around the world…blah blah blah) does all of the talking. It has been his boss who keeps...

These are keys. DUH. MAN, I can’t believe you didn’t realize that.
I can’t believe I just got called out on my lame attempt to keep up with the Photo a Day. HOW RUDE.
I think that means I just got upgraded to Red Lobster. EAT ALL THE CRAB LEGS!!!

Valentine?
Ernesto was here. I think I just agreed to dinner on Valentine’s day.

I just got out of a wrap up meeting for that big event we just had. My boss wasn’t present because she had some personal things to take care of, which is no big deal. My co-worker and I were left to run the meeting, which really just meant my co-worker ran the show. I have some opinions about it.
This event went really well. Hands down, best one I’ve been to in the past 3 years that...

Holy crap balls
Just for the fun of it, I checked out the Red Robin nutritional value. I could eat a whole days worth of calories just eating one of their burgers. CRAZY! Of course, no surprise there. My options, which aren’t bad by any means:
Grilled Salmon Sandwich (569)
Keep It Simple Burger (569)
Bruschetta Chicken Burger (674)
California Chicken Burger - no bacon (711)

MONDAY CHECK-IN
Obsessing over: Getting my work done. I still have 8 groupings of thank yous to send out and other things at work keep coming up. I want to be caught up and DONE with this event.
Working on: Nothing. I just finished eating dinner (tilapia and brussel sprouts).
Thinking about: What I want to watch on TV tonight. Let’s see…The Voice, Hart of Dixie, and Smash.
Anticipating: Getting a...

Push It Real Good
I haven’t been posting these, but here’s what I did at the gym yesterday and today.
By the way, on the first Monday of the month, Planet Fitness gives out free pizza because everyone deserves a treat. Today, everyone in the gym smelled like beef and cheese. Yum.
So anyway….

Cardio - 30 minutes, stair stepper, manual mode, 30 resistance, 15 incline

“Caitlyn- don’t worry about my emails…I can wait as long as needed.”
– from someone I don’t usually mind, but she e-mailed my co-worker to see if I was in the office today because I wasn’t responding to her e-mails. I wasn’t responding because I was working on thank you letters.

YES!!! And can you also gossip/roll your eyes with me about the guys that wear bathing suit shorts in place of actual GYM SHORTS? You may not have that problem in PA but it drives me CRAZY here.
How is that even comfortable for them? But no, no swimming trunks here. There are a lot of retired folk at the...

YES! We could make all the perfumed girls jealous.
We could fight for mirror space with the douchebags that cut the sleeves off their t-shirts and rip big holes in the side so only about an inch of t-shirt is holding it together on each side and you can see their less than phenomenal...

Realistic Goals
I found my workout idol. I run into this girl from time to time at the gym. I went to school with her brother, she graduated with my sister. We always wave hello and shoot the shit in passing.
Yesterday, I got to the gym after church and she was beasting it on the elliptical. (She’s ALWAYS doing cardio when I see her) I changed clothes, hopped on a machine and did my usual 30 minutes and...

Classic Sam
I skipped the half time show and drove across town to hang out with my sister and others at her brother-in-law’s house. Among the others were Sam and Moses. (Sam is the one who has tried and failed 3 times now to set me up with someone) It was good for some laughs. Sam is off the wall and Moses is her hot Brett Favre look-a-like husband. Together, they are sarcastic smartasses and...

My name is Cait and I'm a closet narcissist.
cupofchi replied to your post: Methods to my madness
Nah, you just wanted to show off your cuteness to tumblr. It’s okay to admit ;) But also…ERNESTO?!?! Hahahha. Go, Cait, go!
Yea, every time I hear Ernesto, I go straight to thinking about One Life to Live or Days of Our Lives. Poor guy. But if he can fulfill a dream beach vacation/lifestyle, I’m game.
AND, thank you Shana and Natasha!
