#zumba liz

[basstan]

so last night i made the huge mistake of consuming too much alcohol, which of course led to a severe hangover the following morning. now, under normal circumstances i would've been able to drag my body through it, but i'm also at that age where it feels like i'm legitimately going to die — a very slow, very painful death, might I add. but then i found myself by the pool, just hating every single person breathing, when i spotted a group of elderly women doing water zumba. music is pumping, despacito all around and then i see it.. fucking mendes and his twenty-something biceps performing a perfect salsa, when i know he was drunk as a skunk last night. what i'm saying is, liz - next time i expect you to help me reduce my alcohol intake, but also join me at the gym. / @e-olsen

CH 21

Liz pulled into Nate’s driveway, killed the engine on the Ural and grabbed a case of beer from Dave’s lap in the sidecar.

“Here,” she said, handing the case back to him once he stood up. “Pull your goddamn weight around here.”

“Yes, ma’am,” he replied, softly nudging her with his elbow.

They walked up the front steps together and stopped at the door. She expected him to ring the bell or knock, but he just opened and held the door for her. She hesitated a moment before walking into a little foyer. She could hear laughter coming from deeper in the house when a blonde woman about her age in a flowing dress ran around the corner.

“You’re here!” she cried and ran to hug Dave. He smiled warmly at her and hugged her back.

Liz stood awkwardly next to them for a moment before Dave introduced them.

“Andrea, this is Liz. Liz, Andrea,” he grinned.

“It’s so good to meet you!” Andrea smiled brightly and immediately pulled Liz into a hug. Not wanting to drop and entire case of glass bottles in her clean foyer, Liz embraced her with one arm. “Come in!” Andrea cried, grabbing Liz’s hand and pulling her into the living room. Several people were sitting on a grey sectional around a giant TV mounted above a fireplace. Liz noticed they were watching rugby of all things before Andrea led her to the kitchen where even more people were standing around chatting. She felt Dave touch her arm before taking the case of beer from her and setting it on the kitchen island and ripping it open. He handed her a beer and took one for himself. Just as Liz was about to open the bottle, Nate turned away from the sink.

“Liz!” he cried and jogged around the table to greet her.

Liz’s eyes went wide when he hugged her tightly and held on for a bit longer than the usual greeting required. “Thanks for inviting me,” she said, feeling herself blush a little. “I like your apron,” she added, not daring to look at Dave for fear of laughing.

“Yeah? It’s Andrea’s,” Nate laughed gesturing to the pink and white ruffled fifties style apron around his neck and waist. “I have to finish the potatoes, but make Dave show you around, okay?”

Liz nodded felt Dave’s arm around her shoulders again. “I can’t tell if you’re trying to keep me from running away or if you’re using me as a crutch,” she laughed, poking at his hand on her shoulder.

“Little of this, little of that,” Dave smiled.

Chris poked his head in from the patio door. “Need more chips, man,” he called to Nate before noticing Liz and Dave. “Hey!” he yelled, opening the door further to walk inside. He immediately pulled Liz out of Dave’s arm and into a hug.

“Hey, Chris,” Liz smiled.

He looked at her for a moment before noticing her unopened beer. “You need a church key?” he asked, turning back to the kitchen.

“Jesus, I haven’t heard someone call it that since I was a kid,” Liz laughed as Chris handed her a bottle opener.

“You were born in the eighties, Liz. You are a kid,” he joked as Nate handed him a big bag of wood chips.

“You vegan now… or…?” Liz joked, knowing exactly what the wood was for.

“Once you get past the slivers, it’s actually pretty good!” Chris replied and headed back outside to a large meat smoker.

Dave and Liz followed him onto a wide deck overlooking a green hillside. A lawn spread out below them with a swing set and pool set off to the side and several kids were racing around on the grass with bubble machines, nerf guns and a big brown dog. Liz realized she had been invited to a family barbecue, not some rock and roll rager and was thankful she decided to wear her Vans, light jeans and loose white tee shirt.

“Who are all these people?” Liz asked, leaning against the deck railing and looking around at the crowd.

Dave glanced around and shrugged, “Never seen them before in my life.”

Liz laughed and took a drink of her beer before Dave relented.

“Our tour crew, sound guys, studio guys, tech guys… they’re not all guys, but… you know,” he said, gesturing towards a group chatting around a patio table. “Nate always does this after we wrap an album tour as a thank you for all the shit they go through.”

“That’s really sweet of him,” Liz said, turning towards the kitchen window where Nate was still busy at the sink.

“He loves it,” Dave laughed. “Just look at that fucking apron.”

A collective, gleeful scream blasted through the air and Liz spun around just as all the kids playing below scattered across the lawn. They were laughing and running, trying to flee Taylor who had run from the lower level in pursuit. He was wearing neon yellow leggings, a loose white tank top and a green towel as a cape, spinning a foam pool noodle over his head like a lasso. Dave and Liz watched him dart around the lawn, picking up and tickling every kid he could capture. He paused to catch his breath and looked up at the deck, spotting Liz and Dave.

“Hey!” he called, “You’re here!”

“Hey, man,” Dave yelled down.

“Liz! Look at my pants!” Taylor said, waving his hands at his crotch. She heard a woman’s voice scold him from beneath the deck.

“You look like Hulk Hogan teaching a zumba class,” she called down to him.

Dave choked on his drink of beer and turned away from the railing. Taylor gave Liz a half grin and pointed some finger guns at her before running off to hassle more kids.

“Come on,” Dave took Liz’s hand and led her back towards the house. She looked over at the group sitting at the picnic table and blushed when she saw they were all staring at their joined hands.

He led her through the house, pausing at the top of a flight of stairs when Nate’s voice rang through the living room, “I swear to god, Cody if you don’t use a coaster...” 

Dave looked down at Liz before they both burst into giggles and hurried down the stairs before Nate heard them. They wandered through a family room and out onto a patio covered by the deck above them. The paved patio was covered in chalk drawings, bikes and toys while several tables of food were lined up against the house.

“Ally, hey,” Dave said turning to a woman bouncing a baby in her arms.

“Hey, Dave!” she smiled, walking over to them.

He introduced them before lifting the baby from Ally’s arms. “Hey, buddy!” Dave laughed as the infant swatted at his face with his chunky hands.

“My girls are huge fans of yours,” Ally said, kindly smiling at Liz. “They’re going to just lose it when they see you.”

“Which ones are yours?” Liz asked, scanning the chaos.

“The two blonde ones in the orange and blue. Are your kids here?” she asked, avoiding the pointed look that Dave shot her.

“No, they’re back home. I’m only here for a couple weeks,” Liz explained.

“What a shame,” Ally said quietly, this time shooting Dave her own pointed look. “Come meet the moms” she weaved her arm around Liz and led her away from Dave, who watched them leave while still cooing at the happy baby in his arms. They approached a group of women who were chatting about an upcoming baby shower when Ally interrupted. “Guys, this is Liz,” she said simply.

All the women, seven in all, quietly turned to look at Liz. An uncomfortable moment passed in which Liz wished an earthquake would strike before she smiled and gave a weak wave with her beer. “Hey.”

All at once, the women began warmly greet her, physically pulling her down into the one empty chair in the circle. Liz tried to focus on their names, but there were so many and they were all so very blonde and gorgeous, she couldn’t focus.

“We’re drinking wine and bitching about motherhood,” one woman named Celeste said, patting Liz’s knee. “Well, not this one,” she waved towards a very pregnant woman across the circle from Liz who flipped Celeste off.

“Two more weeks,” she moaned, rubbing her belly.

Liz looked up at Dave jogging around the back yard with Taylor, still holding the laughing baby in his arms. Celeste noticed and nudged her leg, “You having any more kids?” she asked bluntly.

Liz heard Ally gasp and saw her shake her head.

“I have no idea,” Liz laughed. “After two, I finally realized that you can plan as much as you want, but it’s never going to go the way you expect.”

The women around her laughed and nodded.

“You just had a baby, didn’t you?” the pregnant woman asked, trying to lean forward.

Liz took a drink of her beer and shook her head. “He’s two now, so not really. I was only able to stretch the whole ‘I just had a c-section’ thing for so long.”

Celeste leaned in closer, “Is it true that actresses have a tummy tuck during the c-section? Is that really a thing?”

Liz shrugged, a little uncomfortable that all these women were listening to her so intently. “I wish,” she said and poked her own side. “Being completely lucid during major surgery is bizarre enough, I wasn’t about to ask for more time on the table.”

Celeste laughed and patted Liz’s arm as the rest of the group fell back into their own conversations. “Welcome to the crew, mama,” she said quietly and winked at her over her wine glass.

Liz only smiled back, not really sure what she had just been initiated into when she heard Dave call her name.

“You’ve been summoned,” Celeste laughed and waved towards the lawn.

Liz slowly picked her way through the toy scattered lawn, petting the large Labrador that trotted up to greet her. Dave sat on the grass with the baby in his lap, surrounded by five little girls whose eyes went wide as they saw her approach. The littlest one screeched so loudly that the baby in Dave’s lap burst into tears, hiding his face in Dave’s shirt. The little girl ran towards Liz at full speed, giving her just enough time to crouch and catch her in her arms.

“Annie!” the little girl cried, shoving blond ringlets out of her face, “Annie, the British have taken our ship!” she pointed towards the towering swing set where Taylor led a group of boys in surrounding the structure.

The other little girls left Dave to deal with the crying baby and ran over to listen to Liz’s instructions.

“Aye,” Liz said in her character’s Scottish accent. “But we’ll be takin’ her back in no time.”

Liz quickly learned the girl’s names before they planned an attack on the boys, successfully regaining command of the swing set after Taylor convinced the boys to let them win.

“She’ll be hanging off of you all night now,” Taylor laughed as Liz caught his youngest daughter at the bottom of the slide.

Liz smiled as the girl ran off to bother her sister. “I really don’t mind,” she said. “Keeps me in practice for when I get home to my own.”

“How long are you here for?” Taylor watched her closely, making Liz a little uncomfortable. 

“Another week. I leave the day after the Oscars,” she explained. 

Taylor only nodded, watching the group of kids abandon the swing set for three teenage girls that were crossing the lawn carrying large bags.

“Babysitters,” Taylor explained when Liz cocked her head, “Nate and Andrea hire them and they do a little camp out so us parents can have a fucking drink in peace for once.”

“Best party ever,” Liz laughed and walked with him back towards the house. The lower patio was now deserted, leaving Taylor and Liz alone.

“Dave told me you didn’t want to come tonight,” he said bluntly, grabbing a beer off the table.

Liz’s eyes darted to him in surprise. “I just didn’t want to impose. You guys have a routine here and I’m not about getting in the middle of it.”

“I think Dave wants you in the middle of it,” he replied, watching her carefully.

“Then Dave is out of fucking luck,” she said. “I’m very happy to go to shows, but there’s no reason for me to be backstage or… here, really. I would never have come if Nate didn’t invite me himself.”

Taylor stared at her for a minute before taking another drink. “That’s all I needed to hear,” he said quietly.

brandon update? team email?

sorry i have a couple update-type questions in my inbox and haven’t gotten around to them. i already did an update on my session today with brandon and the email will show a quick update on the other two - honestly sessions with him haven’t been that heavy the last three times which has been kind of nice - we haven’t needed to do that much grounding!

“hola!had a pretty good week. rehearsal on wednesday was only for chorus so that was fun - we did a lot of focus on our individual characters in the chorus and kind of developed their back stories a bit, and did some work with archetypes which was interesting. Sunday rehearsal was good but long and I’m gonna need to figure out how to handle the food situation bc there weren’t many breaks. we lost a lot of cats in the last two weeks at the cat shelter so that’s been really hard (i think we’re up to like 8 that have been put down, it’s crazy). i want to adopt one SO SO badly, especially an older one, and i have to remind myself that i want to give them a stable home which means staying out of treatment longer. it is really hard though and is a huge motivation. i will be cat sitting for a week for my friend from the shelter so it made me feel good that she trusts me with her cats :)nutrition:weight is the same as last week. we discussed the logistics of the meal plan for when i am at rehearsal. my goals this week are to eat out with some friends on saturday (not sushi or panera), keep being aware of my exercise and try zumba again, and follow up with an appointment with dr. m (re: amenorrhea). liz:unfortunately liz had the flu last week so i didn’t get the chance to see her 😢karen:i had family therapy with both my parents on the phone. we talked about how rehearsals are going and i tried to be honest about the difficult parts as well, instead of just the positive, exciting parts. we talked a little about eating stuff and karen and my dad made a comment about one of my regular dinners that i really struggled with.brandon:on monday we talked a lot about my family’s retreat last weekend that i didn’t go to. it’s for my mom’s side of the family and is literally like a company retreat (like the whole weekend is scheduled and there are like different groups and panels of experts coming in who talk about philanthropy and family businesses and stuff) and i’m feeling really really guilty that i didn’t go. i’m having a hard time with that bc on the one hand, i value generosity and i feel incredibly grateful that i am able to give money to important organizations that i believe in, but i’m not really interested in the family business and being a part of all the conference calls and site visits and meetings. and in the past, i’ve used being in treatment as an excuse for getting out of that stuff bc i feel like i “should” be there and my family expects it of me, so brandon was asking me how it would feel to say “i don’t want to go” instead of “i can’t go”. In our second session, we talked about the difficulty for me when I see people who SEEM to not have consequences even though they may be using “behaviors” or going against the team’s recommendations (namely my mom with her ED habits but she doesn’t have to gain weight or be on a meal plan or eat better or exercise less and she quit therapy to top it all off, and another client in the GR OP program). Today we talked about some of the things that would motivate me to stay out of treatment but that I need to work toward - adopting a cat and moving into my own apartment. We discussed potential timelines for them but part of it has to be up to me and I need to show longer-term stability to prove I can handle those things.”

pretty short boring email!

Week Three: Nap-streets Back, Alright!

Welcome back! 

We are quickly reminded of Liz’s tragic departure... Next time you think about a one night stand ask yourself; “Could this person be on the bachelor and do I want to exploit them for fame?”

Nick sits the ladies down to tell them that the only girl who has seen his dick has been sent home before she could make any further contact with any of them. 

Corinne (been spelling this chick’s name wrong for two weeks) practices taking her robe off in front of the mirror, cause she has that TIT IT factor that will win Nick over. 

Corinne: “I want to explore Nick sexually, I want to show him that I’m serious. I am going to leave him wanting more...” Not sure how much more there could be... America doesn’t even know how much more they want, actually I’ll take a little more. 

C-Baby grabs the whip cream can and sprays it all over her tots and gets the ol’ Nick Lick! “This is what I look like in a trench coat if you were wondering” 

Rose Ceremony

The girls line up and in the POWER MOVE/FUCK YOU of the season Corinne just goes to bed with her rose next to her. Who attends optional meetings anyway? 

Nick: “Last time I checked you still have to show up for the rose ceremony.” When was the last time you checked Nick? Where is it in the rule book, the girl is exhausted from trying to find a can of Redi Wip, in a calorie free house. 

Nick sends home three girls who’s names I already forgot... I hope that didn’t bust your ESPN fantasy team.

Chris drops off the date card and says that their minds will blown, Corinne heard “blown” and perked up immediately. The 45 year-old Backstreet Boys walk into the room and to piercing screams. Corinne thinks it’s One Direction.

Group Date

A three hour Zumba class gets us leggings, sports bras and twerking... Not a bad gig there for Nick. 

Corinne: “I am not a great dancer, I have short-term memory loss.” That’s actually just alcoholism. 

As soon as Corinne sees that this is a date where all clothes will remain on and she can’t pull Nick away, she quickly realizes she is at a severe disadvantage and sprints out of the room in tears. “I don’t cry to get attention, I cry hoping to Nick will notice I’m gone and come looking for me.” 

The concert starts and Nick V has somehow out-whited BSB... 

 After an awkward one-on-one dance with Danielle and TWO songs, the concert ends on account of them having to get Kevin back for his grandson’s sweet 16. 

Corinne: “Danielle got picked as the best backup dancer and made out with Nick in front of my fah-ayce. This is the worst day ever.” Her top stayed on... relax. 

Whore-rinne pulls Nick aside within minutes (again); “I talk to Nick first again, I need reassurance about our relationship again, and wanted to give a quick OTPHJ ... again.” 

Can someone get Corinne a fucking Addy? The girl needs to figure out why five minute convos are putting her into mini-comas. 

Nick and Danielle L. get a private dance to what appears to be no music outside the sound of Nick slapping her ass repeatedly. 

------------

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

“Raquel is my nanny... I have tried so many times to make cheese pasta and I cannot make cheese pasta like she does. it makes her happy and I don’t want to stand in the way of a woman and her happiness”             - General Robert E. Lee & Corinne. 

------------

Raq is probably enjoying the FUCK out of Corinne’s time in LA, probably also took a huge, cheese pasta dump on Corinne’s well-made bed.

Danielle wins the group date rose and ... yeah, whatever. 

One-On-One - Vanessa

Nick and Vanessa gets sent into zero G. 

Nick: “It’s weird, when there is no gravity, you can’t control what you do. I don’t know how my fingers slipped in there.” 

Vanessa then proceeds to puke the entire rest of the flight, followed by Nick and her making out. Honestly, if college taught me anything it’s if you chew gum before you make out, the puke didn’t happen. 

The couple takes dinner on the top of the highest building, which we may see Corinne jump off before this season ends. 

Vanessa tells a story about her grandfather passing before she came the show. 

Vanessa: “I remember I was in the limo on the way to the funeral and we all got red roses at the end.” It was a casual Bachelor themed funeral... So she took it as a sign. 

Group Date 2

The group date card says “I’m done playing the field”.

Brittany: “Yes!!! We are #@$^! playing sports, athletics, woooooo”

Hey Brit have you met Jaimi? She’s into girls too.  

Three Olympic medalists show up to introduce the Nickatholon - Im sure this is the peak of their athletic careers. 

Astrid’s BOMBs hitting her in the face, taming those bad boys should have been an event in itself. She comes in dead last in the race, but wins the spot in the hot tub because of Rachel’s lack of hand-eye coordination. 

Dominique appropriately feels that she doesn’t feel a connection. She copes with it by aggressively staring at Nick from a distance until the date is about to end. 

Dom: “YOU’RE NOT GIVING ME A FAIR CHANCE!” Nick: “Who are you again? Bye.” 

ABC producers told Nick that these WILD dates come with some budget issues, he assured them he would save them money on roses. 

POOL PARTY!

Chris: “Nick already knows what he wants to do at the rose ceremony tonight so he just wants to see your camel toes one last time before he sends some of you home.” 

Corinne does not want to get in the pool, she just wants to mount Nick like a pony at the quinceanera she made Raquel throw her, when she turned 23. 

Nap time. This girl must have very productive work days. 

HOMEWORK: Can someone find out what Multimillion dollar company this girl “runs”?!

@sierra-moore.

                    Sometimes, Liz was able to put aside all her shit and throw herself on a train to Lanford, the town that had once become so much a part of her, she always found it a silent struggle to leave. But regardless of her pride, she had friends here. She’d made friends here, and that was a feat she hadn’t been able to do any other place before, no matter how much or little she’d tried. Somehow, for some un-fucking-known reason, it had come easily here, and ever since, she hadn’t been able to shake those people from her thoughts either. And she thought about Sierra a lot when she wasn’t texting her pictures of gross people on the subway, reciting something hilarious she’d caught in passing from people in the city, or simply texting her a photo of her lunch burrito because she missed her. The truth was, even when she’d tried to move on from this life and put herself out in the world again, she could shake anything that had ever happened to her except this damn town. 

                    She couldn’t shake the bar fights her and Si had almost caused on countless messy nights of drinking, couldn’t shake the comfort she felt when she came home to find Jude passed the fuck out on her couch, BJ curled into his stomach like a pathetic excuse for a guard dog. She couldn’t shake the wholesome unit of a dumb family she’d created with fellow kids who found themselves whole and not so when it came to people actually related to them, and couldn’t shake how familiar the streets felt to her whenever she allowed herself to walk them again. This place felt like home, and that wasn’t a feeling Liz had ever come to know before. She hadn’t grown up here, but she’d grown here. These people, these streets and buildings, the sticky bar seats of The Cellar, the over saturated smell of Muncher’s friers from the car park, the low glow of Lammar’s and the scuffed pavement in front of Lanford’s Police Station... they were all places that Liz knew as well as she knew her own body. For a time, Lanford had been the only place happy to always have her. She’d never felt like that before in her life.

                    Catching up with Sierra was always better in person, she was one of the few that made Liz’s sides ache with laughter and introduce new perspectives, ones Liz wasn’t actually too stubborn to look from. Sierra was a reality check but better, usually because she came paired with tequila somewhere along the line. Like now, three cocktails in (because slammers and shooters weren’t allowed at the tables, who knew?) and Miles in a highchair beside them, Liz slapped some keys down on the table between them.

        “Alright, stop being a piece of shit and shut up for a second. I have something to tell you---” She knew the second she said this, Sierra was going to come up with her own list of possible news, so for a good two seconds, she let her roll. Then, she interrupted. “--- I’m moving back.” She laid it out plain and simple, letting the other woman react. “I put my name on an apartment that’s getting cleared out at the end of the week in North End, it’s right around the block from the first hole we crawled into here.” She said. “Because, like, I’m just sick of being fucking alone in that piece of shit apartment, staring at the walls all day, making excuses that it’s not always going to be like this. Like one day I’m just gonna wake up and I’m no longer going to have to be a mom, or that Gus is gonna stop doing what he loves for five minutes just so I can let my guard down and admit I’m actually not okay with being the East Coast Girl while he’s the West Coast Guy, you know?” Her voice was strained with it’s natural husk, but even as they joked and shit talked, Liz wanted to be real with Sierra for a second. She also knew that out of everyone, Sierra would get it. Her and Zack had done it, and for a while, it seemed like it had worked. Until it hadn’t. “And like every time I get shitty about a place and get that urge to find a new one, I realize it’s not really about anyone else, it’s about me. I’m unhappy with me, and I need to stop treating myself like it’s a crime to be pissed off at myself and ruining every opportunity I get to be happy. So I got online a few weeks ago and I put a deposit down on the first garbage dump I could find.” She looked to Sierra finally, full in the face. “And you’re fucking helping me move in this weekend, I don’t care what old lady Zumba class you’re doing or whose dog needs walking.”

Wellbeing and health and fitness were the very hot topics which drew a huge group to Wexford Racecourse on Sunday for the inaugural WellWex Pageant.

Additional than eighty neighborhood and countrywide wellbeing and health and fitness authorities took section in the successful festival, providing functional introductions to a huge variety of overall health-selling actions, helping men and women of all ages from sixteen several years upwards, to ‘Find Your Well’.

The active day-prolonged programme of events took area in a village-type environment and included workshops on several varieties of Yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi, Chi Kung, Mindfulness, TRX, Audio Baths, Bounce Conditioning, Zumba, Salsa, Boxercise, Power Hoops, Kettlebells and Jujitsu.

There were inspiring and motivational talks such as ‘Speak Up and Communicate Out’ with Louise O’Neill the ‘Journey to Wellbeing and Happiness’ with Siobhan O’ Hagan the ‘No Bullsh*t Guide to Unwanted fat Loss’ with Louise O’ Brien and ‘Simple Actions to Assurance, Clarity and Consistency’ with Pat Divilly.

Panel discussions were held on the ‘Wellbeing of Teenagers’ featuring speakers Orlagh Reilly, Dee O’Keeffe and Deirdre Ward of Unlock ‘Intuitive Eating’ with Nichola Forrest, Liz O’ Leary, Shonagh Harpur and Paul Juggins of Nourishment Unravelled and Community Wellbeing with Cllr. Leonard Kelly, Karla Bell and Nichola Gregg.

The wellbeing of the world also arrived less than the spotlight in a discussion with An Taisce Weather Ambassadors and also in the course of a story-telling workshop.

Individuals were encouraged to get in contact with their innovative sides at workshops on Inspiritus Art Vision Boarding and Meditation by Mandalas.

Meals stalls offered healthy sustenance though musical entertainment was offered by Nic and Neil, Josh Cahill, Dave Clarke, Tuesday at 6, Niall Income and Rachel Grace.

Pageant director Treasa Traynor said there was an overpowering response to the inaugural function, each from the neighborhood community and those people doing the job in the wellness area.
