Day 4: A Little Trouble
Yesterday I got stuck in a situation that was almost disastrous...a coworkers last day of work. What do you do on these days? Everybody goes out to lunch together. We ended up at Chilis, and I have never been able to resist those giant southwestern eggrolls as an appetizer before a big, greasy meal. I *barely*, and I mean barely made it. I ordered from their lean lunch menu. It was some boring chicken sandwhich with steamed vegetables. At least it was sort of healthy.
Also, being that this was Dan's last day of work we ran into some problems just as he was getting ready to leave. He stuck around to help us fix them, but that turned it into a 10 and a half hour work day. Normally I would have skipped lifting, but that's a rule breaker. I started out on my biceps before realizing that I was really tired and it was getting late. So I cut that workout a little bit short and ran another gruesome 23 minutes. I swear my heart almost exploded and I almost collapsed with fatigue this time around. I was watching the clock to keep with another one of my rules - total workout time: 1:00. I left for work at 6-something and got back at 8-something. I don't like these 14 hour days.
