hmmm
Do the meet. If you sent in your cash for the fed card, just e-mail Louis and tell him you need the card for Ste-Marie, he’s fast with those things.
This meet will qualify you for the Provincials later this year. If you don’t do this one, the only other meets are either Jonquiere or Baie Comeau. There has been a Sept. qualifier for the past few years in Levis, mostly with Montreal lifters but most of those guys are doing Ste-Marie from what I gather. So unless Earthquake counted as a qualifier and you made your totals (check with Kasey), you need to do this one if you want to compete in the fall, and aim for 2012 Nationals.
Just go in with a clear number to qualify (easy) and do that if you are not up to much else.
WOW!! That photo is incredible! I love how its overtly sexy and yet understatedly so. Perfect combination. Plus your legs are killer, and red is my ALL TIME favorite color. This is definitely a fave!
Incredible DLing, Frenchie! 315 is there without a doubt. Its mind boggling the weight you’re moving! Plus the sock and shorts…ugh! swoon!
Comsumption - so lovely. Its always funny how much things change, how much they stay the same. Here’s a snippet from mine from when I 22. Ahh…young love.
Knowing that I have never loved as I do now
and loved with such ease the simplicity of being shadow to a man.
Knowing that I must sensibly tuck away, as i have never done before my selfish, writhing, insatiable insides and dismember my manhood, making it whole again in the practical shape of Eve.
But gladly I break.
And loose myself in his interminable good fortune, in his wandering eye, in his strong embrace and become as has been destined.
Pondering the stupidity of my actions and reveling in his beauty.
I got so excited about the deadlifts that I forgot about the picture. I love it. Such a sexy, retro feel to it. The legs are great, the shoes are awesome and even the washer/dryer combo is cute. Could you imagine that pic with a plain old white top load washer or something? lol
I’m so glad someone demanded more pics ![]()

No the earthquake was not a qualifier so I will bug Louis and get my card in for St. Marie in order to have the opportunity to try out for provincials and nationals. As always, big thanks. Do you have Louis email you could PM me? If not, I’ll get it from Kacey this saturday.
Maschy - another writer! speaking of 20yrd old craziness:
'99
Maiden voyage soon comes to port
A heartbeat skips a sigh
Perfumed pillows turned cave of secrets
Long limbs in sheets entwined
Oh Birth Belly Moon, won’t you bless this Wholly Night.
Your craft enticed my logic
Leaving me unarmed
Bare, I bask in your bold beauty
Glistening lips have bound-me, charmed.
Whose face engraved closed eyes do see?
I pray this face be mine
As yours a portrait memory
Named Passion, Love, Divine.
yeah, I was a pot-smokin litt chick.
I could not have spun more rehashed metaphors if I tried. But I got my prize in the end. lol!
Damn Mainy, that pull was freakin awesome! Way to stick with it and grind the piss out of it. LWI or DIE chica! You’re making some wicked progress in here, bravo!
Bad ass picture and beautiful pulls…or is it the other way around?

Lordy…you would have hated me if we were in the same class. ![]()
I’m late! But awesome DLs. Very strong.
Nice fuckin’ PR! I must admit I’m jealous of all you strong chicks as injury after injury has kept me away from the big weights.
But seeing how far you’ve come since 2008 is inspiring.
Ink - I’m screaming “Lock it!,Lock it!” in my head on a loop.
Smart - thanks and cool action shot avi.
BC - your comment requires further explanation sir ![]()
Nadia - thanks!
Cal - from 185 to 295! I’m just so psyched. The right shoes, chalk, form, practice and strength.
315 will be my 6 wheels AND double bodyweight. Bear I suggest you start saving to buy a ticket to bite me ![]()
!!! WORD!!! Great PR
You’ve got 3fifteen in the wings!!! ![]()
Thanks Brutiful!!
Today: Powerlifting gym
was still feeling achey from the deads but decided to go ahead and push for some squats. It’s been 2 good days of resting.
shoulder dislocates
retard frogs
wall squats
bodyweight squats
then…
Squats
barx12
95x5
115x5
135x5 - using belt at this point
155x5
165 x3
175x2
185x1
190x1
185x1
135 2x5
glad to say form and depth was good on all of these.
Was working the rack with a junior who squated 440lbs and a woman 30lbs less then me who ramped up to 230 with great form and depth. It was so motivating.
Also I have booked my hotel and registered for the meet June 11. Next week I’ll be working on squats and bench and then taking a week off before the big weekend. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

My poems are…more traditional (usually revolved around religion and politics, although sometimes the religion ones were confused for love poems). I definitely do not fit in the genre of weed smoking litt chick (although back in the day I did enough smoking for the entire campus of Berkley circa '75) although I have dated a few because they mistake distributism with socialism. My poems follow the traditional forms (I’m not a fan of free verse) and weren’t as you said ‘rehashed metaphors.’ ![]()
Uh…I think we need an explanation of “retard frogs”. Or a video.
yay for the meet.
wow, look at all the artists in here. i enjoy art but i don’t have an artistic bone in my body :-/

you are right we would have been mortal enemies ![]()
seriously I only pulled out the rehashed when I wanted to get in someone’s pants. Somehow that worked very well. lolz.
cal -
except when I do it I look like a retard frog… not pretty.
Alex - perhaps you haven’t found your convass? Photography appeals to the math minds because understanding the camera is more a science than art…
Had awesome indian food last night: Onion bhaji, Fish Massala, Sag Lamb, a wonderfull vegetable dish with nan bread and perfumed basmati…
A meet June 11? To qualify for provincials and nationals?
Wow. You and I are so different. Wish I could be more carefree about such things at times.
You’ll know I’ll be rooting for you.
thanks Snap-
game plan next week:
monday - bench with pause - hoping to work up to 140-145lbs
wednesday - squats to heavy singles
thursday - bench with pause - perhaps not as heavy, we’ll see how I feel
saturday - squats to heavy singles
my deads have been moving along fine so I’ll focus on these for the last week.
Then it’s full week off, and then game time.
Also I got my PL card in the mail on friday. That makes me all official and stuff ![]()
Frenchie: I’m routing for you too!
