Well, as the holiday and the bearfest comes to a close, I find myself trying hard to get back into my schedule. Have I ever mentioned how much I hate schedules? I do. That said, I’ve been really good at keeping my nose to the grindstone these last two weeks.1 Besides my work schedule, I’m hitting the gym 4 days a week, 3 w/the trainer, plus my weekly ride along on Fridays. With all of that poor Moby only gets one day off a week right now. All things considered, I’m ok with a little rebellion. I had a great time too. Does that make it ok? lol
All I can say is thank the Flying Spaghetti Monster today was a holiday. Work is slow and I was able to pay bills, catch up on some chores I neglected, blah blah blah. I was also late meeting the trainer but only by a few minutes. Partly because I met up with brettcajun‘s friend Rich from Dallas after work last night. We met out at the Eagle. I can see why Brett was all ga-ga over him. Besides being sexy, he was also very sweet in person. I met several of his friends and we all laughed and cut up till I had to call it a night. Anyway, I’m normally early so the trainer was ok with lateness. We combined a double set into a triple set and caught up rather quickly.2 We did have a good conversation about him pushing me harder. I tend to be very ectomorphic so my body adapts quickly. To compensate, we have to increase the intensity pretty often. He agreed. Afterwards, I ran into my friend Zack in the hood and we debated tattoo designs. He is very artistic and has designed this very large detailed sea creature tattoo for his back.
In other news, it was unusually nice out today. So much so, after my workout, I went for a ride down by the beach.3 A tad windy but very nice out.
All in all, it was a good weekend. The bears were friendly, the weather was nice, and I was busy!
2 At the expense of my poor quads/glutes. OY!
3 Another glaring reason none of my chores were completed. tsk, tsk.
Sounds like you had a wonderful holiday. Increasing the gym intensity, huh? Damn, that means I’ve got to crank it up too. 😉
Enjoy the great weather…I hear we’re supposed to get a taste of Spring soon. *fingers crossed*
Glad you got to meet the sexy air mattress that is Rich. When you first approached him, was he holding one of those numbered ticket dispensers? If so, what was your number? (lol!)
Glad ya’ll got to meet. Small world!
