I did my second workout today, and my first by myself. I went to the Greenbelt gym, which is not nearly as nice as the one at Pentegon City, but it worked for what I needed it. I did 30 minutes of cardio as directly, all on the stationary bike. I managed to keep my…
For several days now, I have been having major allergy attacks. I’ve been taking Claritin during the day and gobs of antihistimines at night. Once again, I woke up this morning all itchy. It’s madness. I took a Claritin, but that’s about all I can do right now. I’m about to head over to the…
My arms, from my wrists up to my biceps are incredibly sore this morning. Bernard warned me this would be the case. It’s tough just straightening my arms out. Tomorrow should be the worst of it, and then it should pass and I should be in good shape for Tuesday’s session. In the meantime, I…
When I got home this evening, the auto insurance bill was waiting for me.
I realized yesterday that I had not yet received a bill for my auto insurance for this year. Normally, the bill comes in early July and is due August 1. It’s already July 13 and nothing. So I called and they told me the bill was mailed on the 6th and takes about 10 days.…
Down at Au Bon Pain a few minutes ago, I grabbed a bagel and a milk. I paid for the items, was receiveing my change, and noticed something funny about the dime that I got back. I took a quick look at it, and it was a Canadian dime. So I pointed this out to…
My first session with Bernard, my new personal trainer, ended just about an hour ago and it was a tough one. I was up at 4:40 AM. Bernard told me to eat something at least an hour before my workout, so last night, I bought one of those energy bars, and I ate that while…
Tomorrow morning at 6:15 AM is my first session with the personal trainer. Now, in order for me to get up, eat something, and get down to Arlington by 6 AM or so, I need to wake up at about 4:45. I just can’t stay up late tonight. In fact, it means I probably need…
I cheated a little last night and snuck a peek at the game in the ninth inning, and so of course, I had to watch the rest of it, even though I awoke bleary-eyed this morning. Another great save by Mariano Rivera. I must say, however, that what I saw of the game was pretty…
Well, it’s the middle of the 4th inning with the National League winning 2-1. Unfortunately, I’m not going to be able to stay up for the whole game. I’ve had a pretty bad allergy attack this afternoon and this evening, I’ve been loading up on antihistamines. They are just barely beginning to kick in but…
