The Time I Met Chris Harrison.

In honor of The Bachelor wedding, (which I didn't get to watch..womp womp) I'm going to tell you a story about my epic fail. 

In March of 2012, I was flying to California. My second plane got cancelled and I had to take 4 different planes. I was pretty annoyed with the whole thing until I got on the 3rd plane. I got to sit 1st class (holla!) and then a man walked on. He sat in the same row as me, a seat over. I said to myself, "Wow, that man looks a lot like Chris Harrison." So I sat there and stared at him for a few minutes then I started "secretly" taking pictures of him. I'm not awkward or obvious at all, right? 

If I could find the proof, I would post it here and it would look like this. So I don't blame anyone if they don't believe me. (IT'S REAL)

Of course, I posted about it on Facebook and everywhere else in the world. But I NEVER got his autograph. If my brain was working, I would have slipped him my cocktail napkin and winked at him. Rookie mistake.


As we were getting off the plane, there was a man in between us. I stepped aside and said, " He picks Courtney, doesn't he?" He laughed and was starting to tell me that I would have to wait until Sunday, no Monday to watch....then I'm not sure what else he said because I walked away. I WALKED AWAY. Clearly, that was dumb but the guy in between was giving me a dirty look to move off the plane. He ruined my life chance.

The next time we meet, I will get his autograph and another a picture with him.



Now you know why I don't tell stories. :)

Work it.

THE GOOD LIFE BLOG


{One} Wednesday was my 3rd week at the gym and I have gained 3 lbs. It's not a lot but it's progress!! 
People also look at me like I'm nuts when I tell them I'm trying to gain weight and not lose it ;) 

{Two} I got a text from my cousin yesterday, saying they have been staying 30 min away this past week and she is just telling me now. The day before they leave they tell me...can you feel the love?! 



{Three} I PR'd on squats, rows, and pull downs yesterday....Some jerk thought he was going to make me mad but instead he just made me work harder. BOOM. 

{Four} I'm on a mad search for new workout pants. Until I find a rich husband (pssssh), I will NOT be jumping on the Lulumelon bandwagon. The clothes are really cute but I'll pass buying $85 for something I'm just going to get all stinky and sweaty.



{Five} The ghosts of relationship past (it's a real thing) have been haunting me. I have deleted everything to do with my wedding site and unsubscribed from everything but I'm still getting the e-mails! I reported it, put it in junk - it just keeps coming back. 

MAKE IT STOP.

I am going to try to actually take pictures of the stuff I am doing so I don't have to use gifs. Everyone likes actual pictures right!



It's Friday....so ya better work it! #backthatazzup

Do you have any exciting plans this weekend?

Friday. Friday. Friday.

I thought it was Friday all day yesterday so I'm glad it's finally here.

1. My schedule at work got mixed around so I could work closer to my apartment. So for now I'm only working 2 hours a day. Hopefully that changes soon, not working for a whole month was starting to get to this workaholic and now so few hours gives me anxiety! ha

2. I made some gluten free chocolate chip muffins this week, and they tasted delicious!! I think it is actually difficult to make GF things from scratch.

3. I have enjoyed being able to sleep until 10 and going to the gym before work but I'm glad to be starting my day earlier!! I {kinda} miss my 6 am shifts.


4. I weighed myself on Wednesday- 1 week at the gym and I gained 3 lbs! Who knows if it's really muscle but I'm just gonna go with it.

5. I was able to go to the beach and lay out twice this week and I didn't get a tan! Not even a new freckle. It's a little disappointing ;)

Oh and I also would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy telling my friends how WARM the weather is here in January. #sorrynotsorry

Never gets old...


I haven't been backing my ass up to any tunes lately so here it goes.

Coming soon: Gun Show

I signed a 1 year contract at a new gym last week. So now, I really  have to get my butt in gear so I can get my money's worth! I am trying to tone up my arms and get rid of these little baby muscles! I also want to get a 6-pack and a booty! ;)

So there really will be a gun show in the near future ;) I will not be posting before pictures because everyone will tell me I don't need to work out and blah blah blah! There is a difference between being skinny and fit, ya know? Which I'm not fit since I practically passed out at my last spin class haha embarrassing!

It was actually my first time at this gym and I really liked it. It definitely didn't have anything to do with the 3 cute guys who were there. Definitely not ;) It is a small gym but they have touchscreens on the equipment..that's pretty cool right? I think so..and you have a key fob that records all your work-outs and then you can view them on the computer...I am kinda a technology nerd so I was pretty impressed! It also comes with a free diet tracker and I need that forshiz. I have been eating like crap lately.

You also get a free workout with a trainer every month and I gotta say, the gym knows how to pick eye candy. Ha I'm awful ;) but they are really helpful!

Any who, in about a month hopefully I will have some impressive pictures to show. I'm pretty excited and the 3 trainers are kicking my ass already!

Funny Weekend Ecard: I don't have swagger. I'm just sore.

Five on Friday

I honestly didn't even know it was Friday until I saw other people posting all about it. Whoops.

1. I am SO excited for yoga on the beach tomorrow. I haven't been to the beach since I got back from IA and I actually enjoy yoga now that I can do the moves!

2.

Lisette always gives away cute freebies! This quote is so true too!!!

3. I accepted a job...now I just have to wait for the reference check and background check. So it's not 100%, but I'm feeling pretty confident ;)

4. I forgot how much I loved Pinterest, hence number 5. There are so many things I have learned from there. It really is interesting how you "learn something new everyday." I'm getting wise in my 22 years ;)

5. I found this interesting website from Pinterest. The left picture is me now, the middle is me if I would gain 50 lbs and the right is 100+ lbs.. I just did it for fun but it would be cool for people who are trying to lose weight and want to see how they would look.
