On thursday, my workout partner was a no show. Quite sad, because that was a light day, too. I still did my thing, starting out with 28 minutes on the elliptical runner. Got the heart rate up to 84% om my max (max being 220- age[24]).
He did show up friday. A little late, but he showed. I was halfway through the first circuit when he arrived, so I started over again. He actually had a dip in for the first half of the first circuit. Problem is, if I remember correctly, niccotine causes blood vessles to restrict. This makes it harder to replenish the oxygen in your muscles. Personally, I recover very quickly. Him, not so much.
Sunday was an interesting day. First off, the power went out in the morning, and took out my alarm clock. I ended up sleeping through the morning meeting, which is never useful to me anyway. More importantly, I was too late for eggs-to- order, so I didn’t get my scrambled eggs with cheese.
Later that night, I got reacquainted with the sewing machine, and finally put the SF patch on my right shoulder (I’m entitlaed to it because m past and current jobs both have me workng for the Combined Joint Special Operations Task Force, CJSOTF). I first learned to sew after graduating from Airborne school, and needed to sew my wings onto my uniforms before returning to West Point. I have also been sewing velcro onto certain patches in order to prepare my ACU’s for when I get back to Italy.
I swear that the sewing machine is one of the most fascinating things to me, or it was until I figured out how it worked.
Black 6, out.

Yeah I must admit.. i spent a great lenght of time starring at that image as well.. kinda one of those hypnotize things… So things are happy again.. not extremely happy but happy enough… anyway.. yay for you..
You and your fascination with spinning objects…
yea i still dunno how that thing works. that’s badass that you got an sf combat patch. so your unit still has you wearin the desert cammies?
ACU’s…. *GAG*
I always wondered how it worked! That’s cool shit!
Hey I got a workout down a hill, check out my site. I made up a new exercise, called GETTING OWNED. Sorta like the Romaina squats.
Coolness.
I was actually wearing long pants when I fell. I got what I now call a “Thunder Mountain Wedgie”, since I fell down Thunder Mtn.
I guess my ruck didn’t stay centered on my back the whole time. I’m going to have a bigass awesome scab to rip off now!
Actually the cookies arent what I have been working for.. its was kinda.. humm a cover up for something.. I mean I was working hard to get over the girl and be me and was using the cookie as a symbolism for a reward so maybe thats what I was working for i dont know.. Hard to explain.. and I know cooking scores high on the women charts.. but its only gotten me anywhere once… which would have been better if I had pursued it but I didnt… glad I didnt but not… if that makes sense…. So yeah i just got home from work and things totally hit the fan and Im in one of the shittest moods ever and I dont know what to do and have no one to talk to and Im not going to talk to xanga or this comment bcause there is too much and never an answer ……. its just… yeah… Maybe I’ll survive but the fact is.. inside.. Im not.. not for now.. . I’ll be crippled…
