I'm actually not *that* pale. Showing off my sexy stomach while running does that.

70% are mansions. . with at least 3/4 of an acre. . and thousands of trees.

It is sheer brilliance to be able to mix as many math terms in one sentence.

Actually, only 64% of the current adult population, figuring out of the 5/8 that made it thru high school, are even able to make up a couple hundred of such statements.

Saturday September 19

Superset 1

Static Lunge
3x10 @ 35 (EH)

Face Pulls
4x12 @ 60

Superset 2

Incline Bench Row
3x12 @ 45 (EH)

DB Shoulder Press
3x12 @ 35 (EH)


Reverse Crunches
3x12

Barbell Curls

Had no idea that I went up 10 lbs (but down two reps) on the static lunges and 10 lbs on the rows. I guess this was a good workout. Here's to not remembering last week, I guess...

slowly.

I look better than I did in May. Not drastically, but slowly. The running is actually hindering it I think. (And I think the deficit is why I bonked in the last weeks of Core Performance)

After the race is over, I need to have a plan and just get stronger, fat be damned. I can probably do better by not freaking out.

Not in a mansion either. I doubt I ever will be. Except to visit.

Awesome about looking better.. Slowly is okay. (Nothing at all wrong with that) It is a tricky balance to get deficit and performance. It seems like you are actually doing that to a degree. WTG. I would never be able to do that on my own.

Well, it's actually been more of an unconscious thing than it has been planned. When I get pissed, I don't eat, and I've been pissed a lot lately, so therefore I'm not eating as much.

It's no way to go through life--as I'm finding out first hand--but hey, there's at least a benefit.

(And I've found that I do much better writing snarkily and cynically when I'm not pissed. When I'm mad, I can't do it. If I'm in a good mood, I can be much more scathing. Weird.)

You're 23. I can imagine what you're missing. You guys are kind of predictable in this area.

Well, sure, that's on the list too...

I'm more worried about being happy than anything else at the moment, and I figure that may happen if I'm happy. (or it could make me happy. double jeopardy...)

I graduated with the right major--for me--at the complete wrong time, and I just wish life was actually moving forward. Instead it feels like an endless cycle of nothing.

It's horribly brutal to go from being told that you're extremely ahead of the curve to being hopelessly behind--even though you did what you were supposed to do to stay in that position--in the span of three years or less.

Plus, I'm working at a job for a company that I basically have no future with, and add in the fact that working there makes me feel like the season two version of Jim Halpert, and life suuuuuuuuuuuuucks.

Looks like somebody has the case of post University blues - it happened to me big time. Hang in there mate - deep down you know that you'll land on your feet, it's just a time thing...which sucks.

I never thought that I'd be one of those people that wanted to go back to school afterwards. Of course, I thought that the circumstances would be a lot different.

Wednesday September 23

Superset 1

Face Pulls
4x12 @ 60

Single Leg RDLs
3x8 @ 40 (EH)

Superset 2

Bench Press
8, 7, 7 @ 185

Inverted Rows
3x8


Superset 3

Planks
3x40 seconds

DB Curls
3x12 @ 30 (EH)

Dips
3x8


Holy balls, another great workout. I tend to forget from time to time what the last workout was--especially since I had to think back to last week--and so I was a little aggressive in the hopes of a good workout. Figured that I had gone up 5 lbs on each DB on the RDLs, but had no idea that I went up 10 lbs on the bench press, even though I missed the last two reps on the last two sets.

Forgot to add that I ran a set of hill sprints on Tuesday at the asscrack of dawn before work. It was about a two mile route with 10 hills. Sprinted up the hills, and walked down them. It was awful.

Quarter-life crisis hit me at 23 too, but because of the opposite reason of yours. I had a stable job and was like, "this is it?"

Eventually I realized life is funky, there are no guarantees, and I really can pretty much choose how I feel about circumstances. Not that I usually exercise that ability, unfortunately.

You could always go read the FML site for a pick-me-up. Other peoples' dysfunction is cathartic like that.

The tough thing is keeping the faith that this is temporary, even though most of the time it doesn't feel like it.

Oh hell, I was one of those people that had life all planned out. Yeah... right. And that's fine. But can I enjoy the unplannedness with steady income and my own place? That's all I ask...

Oh, People of Wal Mart and Lamebook are daily stops. It helps to remind myself that yes, 50% of the population is below average and I am not one of them.

So are you looking in other cities for opportunities? I found that the best things happened to me when I did not limit myself to the vision I had for myself. There are all manners of places to go and things to do if your world if bigger than KS.

Also what is it you do and what are you looking to do. The fact that I don't know tells me you are networking well enough. You have a HUGE arm with all your internet connections. Use it to sweep the world and open doors. Life should be exciting and fun and fullfillng. If not actively change it!
