Heeey, happy Friday everyone, we made it. I had a meeting at work yesterday afternoon that went until after 5 pm, so traffic was a monster by the time I finally hit the road to drive home. It was going on 7 pm by the time I finally got home, so I opted to do my workout there instead of at the gym.
As I mentioned yesterday the Daily Burn ap provides workouts for you to do three days a week, and yesterdays was a core workout. I did a 10 minute warm-up in my living room that consisted of jumping rope, mountain climbers, jabs, and hopping back and forth over my yoga mat. I remembered the cardio warm-up moves from back when I used to do the Brooklyn Decker workouts on exercise TV. Whatever, they worked. Then I did the core moves.
Not particularly difficult by any means, but I’m hoping it was affective. I actually enjoyed the Superman’s the most because I tend to forget to work those muscles. After that workout I decided to walk to 7-11 to pick up a frozen pizza and sprite zero to enjoy with my vodka for dinner. From my house and back it’s about 1.6 miles, I know you were curious.
This weekend is looking pretty typical so far, no plans for tonight as of yet, and then kickball shenanigans tomorrow. I’m not making the trek home for Mother’s Day because I have to go home for my sisters college graduation next weekend, and I refuse to do that drive two weeks in a row. No thank you. Who’s got fun plans for the weekend? Mother’s Day related or not.

1-11-11
Make a wish! Haha I’m one of the dorks that always makes a wish if I catch the clock at 11:11, so hopefully today will be full of good luck and wish making. So thanks to everyone yesterday for their positive and wonderful comments, if not for you guys I probably would have been drinking by noon. Some of my real life friends were not nearly as supportive, and were actually kind of judgmental and harsh. So yeah, yesterday was rough, as can be expected when you’re getting yelled and cursed at all day. Here’s to hoping today is better.
Needless to say, by the time the end of the day rolled around, I was more than ready to head home and hit the bottle. I managed to talk myself into a run, thinking that would help get rid of some of the negative energy. It helped, a little. I still went home after the gym and made a vodka and soda. Nothing notable about the work out, 3.2 miles, 10 minutes on the stair mill.
Something that is notable, apparently I am completely incapable of tending to a fire without burning the shit out of myself.
I don’t really have much to say today, still kind of in a crappy mood. So, instead leave me some suggestions of things I must see and do in Chicago in March. Already mentally noted is Deep Dish pizza. Enjoy your Tuesday.
