Sorry about not posting for the last two or three months I'll try not to let it happen again. Anyway I think I'll tell you guys about my weekend. Two words, THE ARNOLD CLASSIC. For those of you who don't know The Arnold is a bodybuilding compitition and expo that is put on in part as well as bears the name of a certain govenor of one of our states out west and is one of the top two compititions in the world and by far the best expo. For the third year in a row now I took that trip to Columbus Ohio that always turns out to be one of the best weekends of my year. This year was no different. I will opt tonight to tell my story more in pictures then in words because it's getting late and I don't think I have that many words in me tonight.
The Govenator at the sunday morning training seminar.

Mr Olympia Jay Cutler and myself.

The Giant Killer Dave Henry.

The lovely Jamie Eason and some big ugly dude.
I've got more pictures I'll be putting up but right now this stupid isn't letting me do it.
Anywho as you can tell I had a pretty good weekend, how was yours?

It's one o'clock in the morning and I can't sleep. It's one of those nights. I feel like going to war, but with whom and over what? Anyone and anything would suffice. Growing up is a painful process. My faith in humanity is quickly dwindling to nothing and cynicism is taking over my world view. The evil man is capable of is mindblowing, and perhaps the scariest thought is that I am every bit as capable as the worst of them. But by the grace of God go I. My shoulder still hurts, it's been a month and is healing very slowly. Like I said it's just one of those nights. I feel like I need to talk to someone but there's no one there or if there were, I wouldn't have anything to say. I guess what doesn't kill us makes us stronger. I can't wait to go back to work. I think being here is starting to get to me. I need the structure. I know I'm rambling and making no sense to anyone reading this, but that's by design. Take care y'all.

I can't wait for the arnold classic. It's what, about four and a half months away. I wish it were here now. Let's hear it for the greatest, purest sport out there.

I went out to find myself and never came back.
