Well, we are here, back home in the Big Apple!  My brother is being a great host and letting us stay at his fabulous apartment in Union Square.  I love being back in the city!  I've had a few great workouts at the Crunch gym downstairs.  I forgot how small gyms are in Manhattan.  Still, I was able to get my sweat on.

I can't wait to show off my hard work this weekend.  I think the package I am bringing in will come as a little of a shock, but a good one!  It's been a great prep.  No cheats at all, every crumb measured and weighed, every cardio and lifting session harder than the last, every routine practice down to perfection.  Team Universe, here I come!!!
