Day 9: iPod

It's becoming a miracle that I get up every morning and get to the gym by 530a. But alas, I did it again today. Now, honestly, this blog is stupid. I know the readers (my friends) could care less how my daily gym routine goes, and honestly I'm surprised I have enough to say about this journey I'm on to write every or every other day.

But today, today was a little piece of drama that sucked. I did my 45 minutes on the elliptical, and as a reward, I get on the bike and race for 15 minutes to get my 700 calories burned. Well, at the five minutes to home mark, Ms. Beyonce started to belt out her "Single Ladies" and I did the bike sprint. Thirty seconds later, my beloved iPod dies. Now, this thing is amazing to have lasted four years with little to no problems. But now, the battery is shit. I have to charge it every other day. But honestly, I never thought four minutes and thirty seconds would be so long.

And echoing the blog written yesterday, who was on the TV when my iPod died? Mariah Carey!! Between Ms. Sports Bra, Ms. Could Use a Sports Bra, and Ms. Stupid Tattoo I had the privy of seeing whose movie yesterday, I'm surprised I'm up and ready to take on the day.

Tuesday. Welcome to the Suck!

Day 8

Today started with a bang. Somehow I made it back to the gym. That makes two Mondays. Yeah! I did okay on calories, but I did make some seriously orgasmic jalapeno corn bread, and damn I'm awesome.

But watching Mariah Carey on the big screen at the gym and staring at the ass of a tiny girl on the bike in front of me wearing a sport bra, I got some perspective. I'm on a fantastic track. No, I'm not near where I want to be, but you know, I made it to the gym. And that is an accomplishment.

The office was incredibly tense, and you know what? Stress increasing your heart rate and makes you perspire, so in effect, did I burn calories at the office? I certainly hope so because I did have a low calorie intake, and a high calorie burn, but a little extra off never killed anyone.

Not much else to report. No, I haven't started writing. Even an outline. I'm hoping to start on it this weekend, but maybe this week some time. On track though. That's what counts.
