Welcome back to the show. okay let's do another podcast another day another podcast I'm here seven days a week hit that subscribe button I'm talking low right now because they're okay okay okay you know you know how people have road rage when when they notice other drivers and they hyper focus on the behavior of the drivers around them and they like to call it out while they drive the entire time so you know so you know how people have that I have rage I have apartment neighbor apartment neighbor rage where like hearing them
Starting point is 00:01:11 unlock their door hearing them shut their door hearing them run up steps like seeing them like bring in boxes to their apartment and just like hearing any noise hearing oh my god god forbid I've told the story of my uh neighbor next door who shares a bathroom with me and like I know when she takes a shit and she sighs because I can hear it she goes oh every morning at 9 a.m and then if I'm in there usually like peeing or whatever at that time because I'm up early I'm not up shitting at fucking nine I'm that's earlier for me I never oh my god I don't want to talk I'm rebranding I'm not talking about nasty stuff like I used to it was very classy um but if I'm in there like I don't know putting makeup on or doing something in my bathroom at
Starting point is 00:02:06 nine I hear the and then like I don't know give it 30 seconds and the toilet flushes you know what I mean so there's just like someone there's some there's other noises that I hear coming out of that bathroom too like I've heard anyways I don't want to get into the graphic disgusting stuff I've heard literally like I hear that I hear it I hear I hear I know when it lands in the toilet water let's just say that like I can hear that sometimes so I have apartment neighbor rage and I was talking slow at the beginning and low not only because I'm kind of tired you know what I mean like she's tired that's kind of my mood right now um but also because someone is outside and
Starting point is 00:02:59 I just it's the door so I've so door slam neighbor I haven't talked about this person in a while uh this person has the same door frame as me same door but make sure to they make sure to slam it every single time they come home to like make everyone make everyone aware they're they're back at their place or something like I don't know it's so dramatic and unnecessary and it's every single time so I just I just listened to that happen and anyways I don't even know I don't even know what I want to talk about today I have like I'm just like in this you know when you feel god am I I'm just hyper annoyed right now or I'm just annoyed by my environment too like I have an empty LaCroix I have a full LaCroix
Starting point is 00:03:47 I have two glasses of water and then a can of iced tea and it's it's just like a lot happening on my desk right now because it's the end of the day and I'm just like I don't I feel cluttery and also super hot I'm getting oh my god okay so I looked at air conditioning units or is that what they're called uh yeah for my apartment I don't know if you were here since the beginning of the podcast back in September but there was a phase of a couple weeks of me trying to figure out how my air conditioning in my apartment works. And it turns out like it doesn't work. It's an old place. Like, I don't know. It just doesn't work. And I ended, I ended up talking to my upstairs neighbor about what they did. And they actually, they, they bought a
Starting point is 00:04:31 air conditioner, like a portable one for their apartment. So anyways, I'm kind of sticky and hot right now. San Diego's in full summer mode for like the weather is, it's getting hot. So yeah, I'm getting an air conditioner. Shout out LG. I got an LG. What is it called? LG portable. Let me get the specs or the specifics. LG BTU, 7,000 BTU portable air conditioner. I think you got 7,000 BTU or 14,000. I don't know. I don't know what BTU means. The reviews are really solid on this, and I feel like LG makes a great product in my experience with LG products.
Starting point is 00:05:23 LG makes a great product in my experience of LG products. What am I saying? I had the LG Voyager, the clap back to the iPhone back in ninth grade. and I've used LG products ever since now I mean I just feel like I don't know for appliances and stuff I feel like they make a good um appliance but I opted for the portable one that doesn't sit inside the window because I think nothing looks more poor in my opinion than why did I say that like it looks junky to me to have a air conditioner sticking out your window it just it doesn't look I don't know and I know that's a common thing I know they're so normal
Starting point is 00:06:12 to have like that but I just I didn't want that for myself I didn't want that for myself so what this is going to be is a little unit, like a little R2D2 box. Like it's going to look like a garbage can about the same size sitting next to my window. And there's going to be a tube that I'm going to hide behind it. Like I'm going to figure out how to hide this really well. So you don't see it. Cause it kind of looks like a hospital thing, like a suction tube or something that's gonna go off go through the window you get like a window kit with a the air conditioner and it makes you like put the how do I explain it you like rig the hose onto your window so that the hot air can blow out something like that I don't it's like a little
Starting point is 00:07:03 chimney but um it's white it's cute it's sleek it's modern um i didn't i found it on l i actually went on lg's website i bought it off amazon but i got it i got the idea from the lg website but it wasn't it wasn't highly reviewed on amazon not that it didn't have reviews it just wasn't it wasn't a thing on amazon like the black and decker one or whatever but i'm gonna be cool for the summer wasn't that a song I think it was I don't know why is my iPhone seven plus turning why is this on have I ever been this like negative I feel like I'm so negative right now you know I'm actually like in it okay first of all I'm happy I'm in such a good place in life right now I'm just tired and I'm I'm just like
Starting point is 00:07:58 I don't know figure it out Jacqueline figure it out should I tell you what I bought at Costco should I just do that and end the episode I'll do that I'll do a Costco haul so let me take a drink of my LaCroix again I'm trying to think of anything
Starting point is 00:08:24 fun about my day like walk Jimmy did yoga um I feel like I'm getting my body back it's great I feel like I don't I haven't mentioned it in a while but um I definitely packed it on in 2020 if you know what I'm saying and I'm not back to my old like shredded little not that I've ever been shredded but I'm not back to my, like, fittest version of myself, but I'm approaching it, and it feels really good, and I feel like yoga is helping so much, and I've been super consistent with it since November, and it's a really slow process, but I'm willing to ride it out. I'm not, like, trying to
Starting point is 00:09:11 drop all the fluff, the 2020 fluff overnight, and anyways, so there's a little fitness update. um i think all the walking with my dog has helped a lot too because we walk twice a day i walk like six miles a day minimum i think six miles when i check my watch like some nights i get home and i'm like oh 20k steps like it was nothing and so i think i'm just more active this year and i think the dog is helping so and i like my new thing let me just mention this since i'm talking about fitness my new thing is like instead of focusing on gym gym gym going to the gym working out at the gym to get my like workout in for the day I'm focusing more on being more active in my day during my daily life like I don't have that how do I there's like a name for this
Starting point is 00:10:12 like instead of just sitting in a chair all day long working and then going to the gym for one hour I'm moving a lot throughout the day I'm always in motion I'd make I take a lot of breaks um where I get up and I walk around and stuff or I'll like clean my apartment for 15 minutes and I'll kind of I don't know I just or I feel like it's just the walking that's good that's making me a lot more active but um but yeah I used to putting me saying this is I used to live in the gym and I just don't anymore I don't even want to go back I feel like the gym is such a great thing and I think it's it it's great for a lot of people but after 2020 I'm realizing that I'd rather be out in nature I'd rather be out on a walk breathing in fresh air going for a run I
Starting point is 00:11:01 live in Southern California it's beautiful I'd rather do that and then set up my mat and I do I do yoga every single day and I it I I don't know how to like I do a 30 excuse me I do a 35 minute workout with Travis Elliott I do I like rotate them but I look at my mat when I'm done and it's soaked like I sweat so much doing it and I also have a humidifier that makes my yoga a room really hot so that's helping me like I don't know just like get really I don't know like like flushed of I don't know like you know when you you work out you get sweaty and you get hot and red and everything like even though I'm just doing yoga like I still achieve that kind of um cardiovascular like I don't know how to explain it I get my heart rate up and I get
Starting point is 00:11:56 really sweaty. So, um, and it's only, and I don't, here's what, here's what I'm saying. I do it at home. I don't have to drive somewhere. I don't have to like, I don't know, like make extra steps to get to a gym and park and whatever. It's so much, it's way more efficient. I feel like it's a better use of my time to not be in a gym every day and, um, workout at home. I don't know. And I'm just like, it's my fitness routine just feels so much more easygoing and natural than it used to. And I never really liked the gym routine I was in. I just did it because I felt like, oh, this is what you're supposed to do. You're supposed to go do all the machines and lift the weights and like do hip thrusts and do all the like booty workout things, which is great. I feel
Starting point is 00:12:48 like I might honestly get the little bug or whatever, itch for it again, but I'm staying fit in other ways and it feels great. Jimmy, off. Sit. He wants attention. Costco. I finally got a Costco card printed. For the longest time, for the last couple months, I've been showing them this little temporary card thing they gave me. And I finally got the official card. What is the gold member? I think I'm a gold member. I don't even know what that means. I'm like, what are, I think I asked the guy, I was like, are there perks? Like what extra perks come with this? He's like, there isn't any, unless you're an executive member, you don't really get any perks. So I got, this is going to sound so fucking boring. I'm literally going to tell you what I buy.
Starting point is 00:13:43 I am the type of I'm a creature of habit I buy the same stuff over and over and over again until I get sick of it and then I rotate to something else and I'm in this weird phase right now where I don't I'm in such a weird phase now I don't eat eggs I don't really eat breakfast food food at all and I don't really eat breakfast I don't know I just drink coffee now like I used to intermittent fast all the time but I pretty much just drink coffee now and I don't get hungry until lunchtime so I end up eating like my little basic bitch chicken salads and like or shrimp salad something like a protein and a vegetable you know what I mean and I'll have that for lunch I'll have a snack and then I'll have dinner and like that's it and um maybe dessert if I feel it but I guess
Starting point is 00:14:31 what did I buy today I got the cilantro lime shrimp in the deli section which is so good I don't think it's the healthiest if you read the ingredients it's got like pretty sure it has like canola oil in it or something terrible I don't know but it's great it's um easy to throw in salads so I got the cilantro cilantro lime shrimp I got the bitchin sauce I got my favorite barbecue sauce I got a pack of LaCroix's I got a bunch of roses I got chicken thighs did i already say that i don't think i did i got organic chicken thighs it's so weird like i check prices you know what i mean between organic and non-organic and they're literally the same price for the same amount and i don't understand why
Starting point is 00:15:20 at costco for chicken thighs it's like or breast too or any any i'm like what is this about like I don't understand why and I feel like the organic ones are smaller though like these I don't know how to explain this they taste better I've had both they actually I take I like the organic they they actually taste better so I bought those um of course the pesto the Costco pesto um what's my other thing I get that's like oh the bitchin sauce pesto the barbecue sauce LaCroix I didn't get liquid IV packets I'm not out of them yet I usually get the tangerine immune support ones I got the protein bar the Costco protein bars those are usually my snack or dessert so dude this is so fucking boring who want what do I
Starting point is 00:16:16 like hey what do you eat in a day where do you buy do a do a shopping haul like I don't know else to tell you like this is literally like hey this is what happened today I'm just going through my list oh I get a ton of zucchinis um fruit um I know apples aren't in season but I always buy apples like I'm just like that's my go-to with fruit I love an apple I got yeah zucchinis some mixed greens I like butter lettuce a lot I was trying to regrow it like the one at Costco comes with a little like it it has the roots still in the pack like it's a tap the roots are there in the package like they just plucked it out of the ground so I tried I tried to regrow the butter lettuce from last time and it didn't really work I don't know if you're supposed to
Starting point is 00:17:08 do that I put it in water I'm like oh is this gonna turn into like another giant lettuce head didn't of course like I need to put it into dirt probably but um I don't really get any snacks or anything oh I got these like granola clusters um I almost got eggs like I went through the refrigerated section I saw the eggs and I'm like I don't know what that means like why don't I want eggs right now I just don't I used to eat like I pretty much every single day I used to eat I eat eggs. And about four or five months ago, I stopped. You know what it was, to be honest, when I got home, yeah, when I got home from Washington, I was, I was home in Washington for a month for the holidays last year. And I was eating my grandpa's eggs every single day
Starting point is 00:18:08 on toast like we'd have avocado toast with eggs and they were from his chickens like fresh eggs from his chickens and they were unreal like they they're 10 times better than any grocery store egg you've ever eaten like it is I don't even know why it's almost like the yolk is butter it's so good like when when you cut into it and I like a little bit of runny a runny yolk like it's so fucking good so I think I came home in the new year and I was buying eggs and I just like they were putting me off I was just like oh these aren't as good and I think I got in my head about it a little bit I'm like why like I wanted to find like farm fresh eggs like that were hatched or laid it's not hatched that were laid within the last like week or 24 hours or
Starting point is 00:18:57 whatever I wonder if they have those at the farmer's market or something I'm sure they somewhere around here they do is that everything I got oh lemons garlic powder dude I'm gonna end I'm gonna end this Costco haul right here now this is boring as fuck and I know it is and I'm gonna cut myself off but um there's stuff going on in the world there's stuff going on the world should I don't know if I mean it's Monday I should have read the news I should have talked about current events I'm just not feeling it I'm kind of off the internet right now a little bit or I'm just like not plugged in to everything going on I don't know I I think I spent so much
Starting point is 00:19:55 of 2020 and a lot of this year so far following the news kind of always knowing what's going on and now I'm just like I can't I'm exhausted of it I and I'm also with like my phone I'm just trying to I don't know I'm like having a little moment where I'm I'm this is also boring as fuck to hear someone say I'm taking a break from the internet but I kind of am I'm just like re-evaluating reassessing no I'm in this phase of seeing stuff on Instagram or Twitter or whatever or the news where I go in my head immediately I'm like oh same shit different day this is wasting my time so every time I open my phone I check stuff I'm like oh I'm bored of this like I see the same things every single day none of this is interesting none of this is exciting or
Starting point is 00:20:47 new or refreshing or inspiring. I'm just like, everyone is doing the same thing every single day of the year. You check their story in six months, same shit, different day. You know what I mean? So I'm like, I just don't get excited to be on my phone and looking at that stuff all the time now. Like I used to, cause it's usually mindless. I'm usually just kind of tapping around, like clicking on things aimlessly and reading things aimlessly. My new thing though, I will say on my phone is I've been googling I've been on my google google I've been on my little safari app getting into deep rabbit holes about certain topics and I've been just sitting at my at the end of the day I usually read on my phone stuff from the internet stuff from like google and
Starting point is 00:21:32 like blogs and things people have written it's kind of my latest passion I don't know but, fuck, I'm hitting a wall, I want to get better sleep this week, what did I say, um, I don't know, there's nothing really else to say, I, I'm going to repeat this, I've been saying it lately, but I'm going to repeat it at the end here, if you're still listening, I'm I'm just not I'm not where I was in the beginning of podcasting mentally meaning I'm not it's lost it's like the honeymoon phase is it's it's kind of over right now I'm just out I'm in this dip I think that's with everything in life like you have highs and lows and I think with what I'm learning through, what I've learned so far throughout podcasting every single day
Starting point is 00:22:31 for 284 days now, is that what number I'm on? I'm learning that you're not always going to get excited to record. You're not always going to be like in the mood or like energized to do it or whatever, but you have to get it done because you committed to this and that's your goal so I'm kind of in this phase where I'm yeah I'm just kind of pressing or pressing record and being boring I'm I press record I talk about boring shit and then I leave where before it was like press record put on a fucking put on a performance literally go crazy ranting laughing making jokes talking about current events all the time contributing to the conversations of the world like being super on the ball with everything i
Starting point is 00:23:31 was that was like the beginning of the show it was actually you know and recently like i throw in those episodes a couple times a week like that but the other ones are just like this where i'm just like I'm tired I don't want to I don't know I don't want to be here for an hour because I feel like it's a waste of time I just want to make these short and sweet say a few things about my day get out you know what I mean it's just a little check-in but hey I'm less than oh no what is Jimmy eating my romper god damn it I swear to god like I'm in this phase of dog training where if I don't get it together now he's gonna be a tyrant he's gonna be terrible like Jimmy no I can't I should just get up and grab it but I'm recording anyways what was I even saying before
Starting point is 00:24:24 that I what oh I know I'm like a hundred days out of my one year anniversary of podcasting is that what it is or I'm less than 100 what is this 28 so 365 is one year right so I want to go out with a bang I don't want to make I don't want to I feel like it's gonna get worse before it gets better is that what people say yeah it's gonna get worse before it gets better I'm in this like okay everything's kind of going to shit right now content wise for the pod with the podcast but uh maybe in July I'll pop off I don't know it's June and I've I've I've justified my behavior in my podcasting uh performances lately by saying hey Jacqueline hey Jacqueline has a life now and she is a busy person who is not all about like
Starting point is 00:25:18 in 2020 I could I didn't have a lot going on the world wasn't how it is now and it was easier to just focus on the show all the time and now I'm like stretched a little thinner than usual and changes things it does change things and I have to prioritize this better and I think that's my issue and I just literally I need to write it on the calendar and block it out at the same time every single day maybe that's my plan maybe that'll be my plan this week like every morning every morning I walk Jimmy make some coffee and then podcast and then start my day then go to work I think that would be a good routine because that's fresh in the morning it
Starting point is 00:26:05 gets it done early I don't know thanks for hanging out hit that subscribe button I'm here 70s week go listen to past episodes go listen to like I don't know the 60s 70s 80s 150 anything before 200 was lit I remember those episodes as being like I was I used to get I was so obnoxious like at first I was so obnoxious and insane uh when I look back at those episodes and like if I see the title I'll be like oh my god I know exactly what I talked about on that episode and it's it's a lot to uh but it might be more entertaining you know what I mean so go listen to past episodes if you're curious about what I'm talking about if you want to see a different side of me um but everything's good like I'm not I'm actually I know I'm tired I'm
Starting point is 00:27:00 actually really good I I'm I don't know everything's lining up in my life right now in a great way and I'm yeah I don't I don't know I don't want you guys to worry like oh what's going on no I'm actually fine it's just um I'm not sleeping enough that's it Jacqueline just sleep more sleep more schedule your podcast in the same time every day uh that's it literally drink less caffeine boom solution easy and you know when I after I say something like that I get so like literally a split second later I'm instantly motivated instantly inspired by myself after I said that I'm like yes yes eight hours of sleep no coffee after 12 every morning at 6 30 I'm gonna podcast that's all it takes that's how easy accomplishing your dreams and goals is
Starting point is 00:27:55 like reverse engineering it breaking it down putting out putting down some bullet points of like putting down the daily steps that you need to take to get closer to your goal. And then you just do it. So yeah, after I said that, I got all excited. I'm like, boom, solution. And you don't need to overthink it. You don't need to sit and like ask yourself like, no, just do it. It's the difference between you and the people that have what you want, the difference is that they're doing it. They're doing it. You're not. That's it. Action. Moving your one foot in front of the other. I'm going to end the episode on that note because that felt good to say. That was inspiring shit. It's Monday. That's your Monday motivation, bitches. Okay.
Starting point is 00:28:57 the difference between you and the people that have what you want in this life is that they're doing it and you're not they're they're doing it you can do it too just follow suit anyways okay that's like the most obvious thing ever jacqueline i was like stupid just like duh, but I always say this, so there are, there are people in this life that are, that watch what happens, there are people in this life that, no, what is it, there are people, there's three groups of people, people that watch things happen, people that make things happen, and people that wonder what just happened, I'm a make things happen person I've always been high achiever like I want to I don't know what's the word
Starting point is 00:30:04 I have a fire under my ass and I like to I like to get better at stuff and I like to become a better version of myself every day and work towards goals and blah blah blah blah all that good stuff like I'm a I'm a doer I'm a uh what was the middle one I make things happen yeah but people that watch things happen that's okay too if you're an audience member right now you're like I just like I don't I'm not really an internet person I don't really do social media stuff I don't really create content or do any of that but I love watching it that's fine there's nothing there's a place for everyone in this world I think there there's nothing wrong with not being and that's where I'm at now I'm like I don't I know I make a podcast I know I put myself
Starting point is 00:30:49 on the internet I put my life on the internet but I'm not um what's the word like I'm just like you I'm not I'm not special I'm just like you I'm just like everyone else we're all the same we're not no one's better than anyone don't ever let someone on the internet make you feel inadequate because they're you know taking videos of themselves every day and posting it and pictures and they're creating content blah blah blah that's not but but and you sit behind a desk all day and grind on your spreadsheets like that's just as amazing and just as awesome and that's necessary and that's important we need those we need people in this world to do those not to say regular jobs but yeah regular jobs and um i think the internet's this giant like
Starting point is 00:31:40 what was something i heard the other day like la is so it's so fake to the point that it's real because the fake stuff is taken seriously like people that are in the industry and social media and all that like internet stuff everyone it's like if you to me like if i zoom out i'm like okay this is a bunch of nonsense like the tiktok stuff and the little like dumb like shake your ass for the gram stuff and the little like corny youtube pranky videos it's just like all kind of nonsense and entertainment whatever but um it's not like changing the world per se like but when you're in it i feel like everyone that in it it's like drinking the kool-aid and all that fame fakey like
Starting point is 00:32:40 social media facade stuff where it's real for them so and then they convince everyone on they convince everyone that's following them that this is real this is this is relevant and cool and this is what we're this is what um the trends are and this is what's hot right now and everything but if you really look at it it's fucking stupid it's just like a bunch of clowns entertaining us and taking our money sometimes like you know what i mean like yeah but hey entertainment's important i think i'm not trying to discredit what they do and it's it's a job it's a hard grind like putting yourself out there and being on the internet and
Starting point is 00:33:23 doing that but um I don't know I just don't I feel like it might I kind of used I think I'm I'm project what's the word projecting because I used to look at stuff like that like all the youtuber stuff all the Instagram influencer stuff I used to look at it with rose color what's the term rose colored glasses or whatever I idealize it or idolize I used to think wow that's like awesome amazing cool like oh my god and whoa that'd be like a fun job like a blog being a blogger or an Instagram influencer I've talked about this so many times where now I'm like there's nothing I want to do more than be off my phone and not make a living from the and social media and like posting stuff and you know what I mean like I don't know and I make I'm
Starting point is 00:34:21 literally making a podcast for fun and it feels great because I'm not trying to sell you anything or sell myself or any of that I'm just here and I'm enjoying the show and my time with myself and i don't know but now i'm almost i almost cringe now i'm just like what did i say one time i'm like if your instagram has the same tones as a bowl of oatmeal i'm out like filtered everything's aesthetically like neutral and like like like a like a painting everything's like a you know what i mean like everything's uh what's the word like people it's like aesthetic is that the word yeah everything flows and looks beautiful on their on their Instagram like
