Let's talk prep, shall we?
Guess who completely messed up the countdown to their shows...AGAIN?? Yep, that would be me! I posted something on Siouxcountry (aka best website ever!) in the 2012 State & Local Shows section about being 4 weeks out from the NPC Terminator and one of the other members informed me that the show was actually in 3 weeks not 4!!

My last check in with The Boss went really really well! She used the term "practically ready" in her reply to my progress pictures and that has NEVER EVER happened before!!! The Boss did tell me that for the next two weeks my mantra is "booty like Serena...caps like Dwight..." My job is to continue tightening up & rounding out my glutes and building those boulder shoulders. I also need to work on my posing.

I have a pretty hefty to-do list of things I need to take care of before both shows...important things like scheduling waxing appointments, picking up new eyeshadow...oh yeah...and maybe sending in my registration forms for both shows!
Three...count them...three weeks until my first show of this year...oh snap...it's almost time to do the damn thang!
