Argh!

I worked through the night tonight. Had to get data scrubbed for the mapping job I am doing. I hit the hay at 5am and got up at 8am.

I want to work out today... hope I do, but I am still not finished several tasks.

I informed Bill Cheesman that I would not make it home this weekend for duty.

Later!

Holiday, not!

Monday is Prez' day. I used to get this off, with pay. But no more!

I actually like it this way.... I coudl take it off if I wanted, w/o pay.. or I can work and make money!

I picked up some Boost, so I could really loose some weight in the next 2 weeks.
We will see.

Why don't they ask real questions??

I was watching the news as I exercised tonight and heard several questions to pundits, and even the candidates for president. The pundits get dragged into the sensationalism questions, and the candidates keep using potentially good questions as opportunities to speak about what is killing them to get out. (It is amazing how good they are to be able to do that! Kudos!)

I have questions... all kinds of questions. And I was thinking other's do too. So I grabbed a domain...

www.ToBePresident.com

As soon as I have a few minutes, I am going to create a simple interface where people can select a good question for a candidate or create one they would like added.

No money! Just registration. (To keep it real) I will moderate it.

Feeling pretty good!

The exercise did not start today until after 8pm! But it had to happen!

I remember around 5pm that I decided I would not exercise today. But about 6pm I was thinking that the day was wasting away and I started to get to 'jonesing' for that workout. That is great news and usually only happens to people after about 30 days of repetitive things... habits.

So I got dressed for the deed and went downstairs. Did upper-body the same as usual; dumbells of 20lbs. 12+12 reps on one arm kneeling over and pulling straight up. Then, 12 on each, repeating that twice.

Then 35 minutes on the eliptical including a 3 minute cool-down.

I then hit the whirlpool for about 15minutes. Enjoyed some discussions abotu cell phones with a few people from Canada, here to watch a family member play a hockey game... he lost.

I had a good time.... but more importantly, I exercised and synced the effort with good feelings!

It is now abotu midnight and I am in ndanger of staying up too late.
(But I had to write this before I could write my next post!)

Argh!

I was on the eliptical again last night. COOL!!!

Really! It is good to see your body respond when it shouldn't from disregard.

So untrained!

Got back to exercising tonight. It felt good. Plan to do whirlpool later.

I have been hitting 100 pedals per minute at first.. then to 130's for last third, and at very end for about 3 minutes I go to 150!

Cool down is boring but fast, at 3 minutes.

later.
