longer than planned

Tuesday, August 30th, 2005

but at least I didn’t get sick.
I slacked all last week, since Otto was sick, and I was just feeling beaten down. This week I’m feeling better, and moved my workout to T-R-F so that I can actually get in my workouts. Mondays and wednesdays I’m just too tired after hammering plaster for [...]

not bad so far…

Thursday, August 25th, 2005

…but 3 hours standing on concrete chiseling plaster is very much making me not want to work out.
Geology is going well… but I am slightly concerned that I may know more than my teacher. about geology. It just seems that way. But maybe it’s just her acclimating to the new position. [...]

Maybe you should try driving on the correct side of the road, instead of swaying this way and that and into the oncoming lane. If you really have something so damned important to do that it takes your attention away from the road you are barreling down with a quarter-ton car, [...]

slackin’

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2005

So, since I didn’t workout friday, but did it saturday instead, I was too sore still from squats to be able to deadlift yesterday. So I shifted my workout to today. And all damn morning (afternoon, for all the ‘normals’ out there) I’ve been sooooo damn tired I haven’t done a thing. [...]

Watching my Space Ghost. El Yaaayyy!!!
Interview with Judy Tenuta. I just figured it’d be my quote of the day.

My new schedule will be:
Monday:
11a-12p — Geology
12p-1p — Engrish (expository writing, again)
1p-4p — Sculpture
Tuesday:
2p-4p — Geology lab

1p-4p — Sculpture
Thursday: (OFF)
Friday:
11a-12p — Geology
12p-1p — Engrish
So, workouts shouldn’t be all that hard. I can’t see huge amounts of homework here. Papers shouldn’t take that much time, assuming [...]

TAP Phase 3

Monday, August 15th, 2005

So, today starts phase 3. 3 different workouts, which I’ll post here so that Otto won’t ask what I’m doing till next week.
Straight sets, 3-5 sets per, 4-6 reps. Doing as is unless noted. 4 weeks, but may do a 5th.
Workout A (today)
Deadlift (5 sets) (which will be figuring [...]

W….T….F….?!?

Friday, August 12th, 2005

Utterly speachless.
wait… is that the point?

So… for today….

Friday, August 12th, 2005

I am not lifting. Thought I’d be doing a deadlift max rep test. No way, no how, NUH UH!
I am seriously in DOMS territory. Not a horrible thing… I was expecting it, and it’s certainly better than I thought it was gonna be… but NO. I can’t. I can barely [...]

Fly away, little birdie

Thursday, August 11th, 2005

So, Otto comes home and says that there’s a humming bird in the garage. Since the garage has 12 or 15 (can’t remember which) foot ceilings, the bird was too high up to reach to help out of there. He seemed very agitated, can’t say I blame him, poor guy. [...]

Max rep tests

Thursday, August 11th, 2005

My plan was for squats, deads, bench, pulldowns, and shoulder press. Didn’t get to do the deads, squats killed my legs. Being not used to them was definitely part of it. On the bright side, I stopped just short of actually hurting myself, so at least by the end of the night [...]

Princess Mononoke

Thursday, August 11th, 2005

Very nice. Not really what I was expecting, but I liked it very much. Rated it a 4. (very seldom do I give a 5… outta 5.) Good story, decent pacing (for an anime), very nicely animated…. Glad I rented it.
Annoyed that Space Ghost is taking so long to get to me… [...]

the widget is finally right

Tuesday, August 9th, 2005

So, after nearly 2 weeks of the dashboard weather widget telling me it’ll storm (day after day after day) it is finally raining. I guess eventually it had to be right…
I’m pretty sure today is gonna be a lazy day inside. In addition to housecleaning that needs to be done, the background on [...]

Damn those blasted shiney things

Monday, August 8th, 2005

I headed into JoAnns just to get some beading needles to actually make my hematite necklace… but then there were all those nice, shiny, pretty beads… so what was supposed to be a 5 minute detour after returning a pair of jeans at Khols turned into about 1/2 an hour picking out beads and such. [...]

bleh

Sunday, August 7th, 2005

I’m just not feeling too good at the moment. Wish I could work out, but between feeling like leg day gets me nowhere and just not feeling well… that’s a no go. Maybe in a bit I’ll at least do some bridges and movement prep. Otto’s working out tho, so that’s good.
Kinda [...]

yesterday/last night

Saturday, August 6th, 2005

Was a bit of a cheat… but prolly not much. I’m guessing that the fries were the only unclean thing I ate, I estimate dinner at 900 calories (it’s prolly a goodly overestimate,) and I didn’t have much else in the day anyway. I’m thinking I was undermaintanence, no problem.
Yesterday was supposed to [...]

Tyler’s Tap Room

Saturday, August 6th, 2005

Not a bad place. Food ok. It’s a bit cold in there, considering it was very, very warm outside. I think they crank the AC up more than necessary. We happened to be under a vent while eating, and the food did not stay warm for too long. But, it [...]

bawk bawk bawk bawk

DAMMIT. Got that fucking Robot Chicken ’song’ stuck in my head again. DAMN YOU SETH GREEEEEEN!
GAH! Can’t wait till they have dvds out so I can get it on netflix. Spending the latter half of my day here adding a bunch of adult swim to my queue. ‘course, I still [...]

So my plan for next week

Friday, August 5th, 2005

Since TAP phase 2 technically ends monday for me, and I don’t really wanna start phase 3 in the middle of the week, I think I’ll take wednesday and friday to do a few max tests, to help calibrate for Phase 3, since it’s 4-6 reps. Things like squat, deads, bench, pulldowns…. get a [...]

new look

Friday, August 5th, 2005

I positively love this theme, it soo makes me giggle. I was gonna use the “girls-suck” theme, but it requires a hack (aka, some actual work done by me) to make the pages show up in the links, and I really don’t feel like bothering at the moment. Maybe another time. And [...]
