I'm trying so hard to be patient

For the first time in a long time (35 years?) I'm having those feelings I had as a little kid. When will Christmas (read: XTrain) get here? What is Santa (read: Cathe and crew) going to bring me? Why are the days in December so much longer than the days in the other months? Can't we celebrate Christmas early?

I'm trying so hard to be patient. I felt pretty bad when I read that Cathe and crew are working seven days/week. I've been in that situation and don't wish it on anyone nor do I want to be the cause of somebody else having to do that. And here's where the feeling like a kid part comes in: at the same time, I want those clips, Xtrain, my calendar, and MORE, MORE, MORE, MORE, MORE!!!!! It must be the time of year. I always get excited about the new releases, but seriously, the anticipation is killing me!

Okay, I'd better get back to my own work that I'm desperately trying to wrap up so I can enjoy my holidays. This is not actually possible, but I'll try like the dickens. Here's wishing that Christmas comes soon and Santa brings us a butt kicking!

P.S. I don't mean this in any way as offensive to those for whom Christmas is a religious celebration with deep spiritual meaning. I'm not a religious person, so Christmas, to me, is fun, social holiday.
 
Yes, it's so hard to wait. Feeling like a kid at Christmas, is a good way to put it. It will be worth the wait. I'm working hard now trying to get ready for Xtrain. Im sure it will humbly me regardless. But, oh, well. I'm still so excited.
 
I feel ya. I've caught myself checking the Cathe website a couple times a day looking for clips. LIS was my first preorder and when the teaser clip came out I watched three times in a row! Those jack pushups on the discs! I wonder what waits for us this time!
 
Hah! I wrote this email precisely because I'd been checking for clips all day and I was thinking "what's wrong with me?!?" :)
 
I'm not in any hurry at all. I'm so swamped with work, still grading student essays for at least another week, and have not had a chance to workout for 2 months already, how can I spare a thought for upcoming workouts?!? Sleep is what I fantasize about!

I can't wait to be done with the semester and get back to working out again, but what I really want to do is run.....

Hope you all get what you are looking for under the tree!

I've mastered the art of patience -- I have a 3 1/2yr old at home :rolleyes::D.

All kidding aside, I will be excited when Download Day has arrived. As each download is successfully uploaded, it will be like a little child unraveling gifts. I will preview each workout with a look of :eek: on my face, and quickly go onto download the next one until all my precious "gifts" have been revealed. All year long I give, give, give, and so I DESERVE this gift from ME to ME.

I'm the exact opposite...I start teaching again in Jan in addition to my already unmanageable day job, so I'd love to get my hands on XTrain before the winter semester starts!

Grading stinks. You have my empathy. But there will be that one student who will make it all worthwhile, right? :D

Oh, D-Day...I forgot I got the downloads!!!!! I was thinking about the shipping and wondering whether if they shipped after Christmas but before the New Year whether I'd have them before I have to return to work. But voila, I was brilliant enough to buy both (but not smart enough to remember I had). Thanks very much for the reminder.

Enjoy unwrapping your gifts and spending your alone time with Cathe (and your DOMS). :eek:

Glad I could be of assistance ;).

On a side-note, I pre-ordered the entire LIS on downloads, and let me tell ya it was a very exciting day for me. I felt giddy as each file was complete :D. I remember people on the forums still waiting for their DVD's, while I had already dabbled in all of the workouts. In was GREAT :D. OTOH, with TTM & CF I had ordered DVD's, and there I was almost 1 month later still waiting for my workouts while everyone else was sharing their excitement :mad:. I was jealous and anxious at that point :(. NEVER AGAIN! :cool::p:D

Ok, so my point is :rolleyes: you will be very appreciative of those downloads :D. The newest workouts are also great in the WB -- chaptered well, no glitches, unlimited mix & matches.

"Talk" to you soon Pam ;)

Yep...I'm sure we're going to have a lot to say about these new workouts....like ouch! :)
 
Not only do I have X-train coming for Christmas, but, thanks to all of you who enable me, I have Body Beast and Horizontal Conditioning coming too. But, I wouldn't trust anyone else's opinions because I trust your opinions.
