Wednesday (last week). I did 200 cal on the elliptical (and critiquing). The rowing machine was in use. 10X3 chin-ups and dips at 14. Downstairs, I did 3X12 at 40 lbs on the pec fly. 3X12 at 80lbs on the lat pull-down. 3X12 curl-ups. 3X12 35bls. bar bells.
Writing: I have been getting up at 5:30 or 6 and writing. Obviously, I get more done when I arise earlier. This week has been difficult, but I've managed to write, finish up and edit the short story (5500 words) that I started at the Ken Scholes workshop. I'm hoping to have it critiqued by the Wordos next Tuesday (on track for that).
Thursday was a retrograde Mercury morning from Hell. I couldn't find my work key (which I'd had to do without the day before). Then I couldn't find my car keys, which I think were moved either by Car Key Gremlins or The Child.
I managed to get The Child to school. Then I got to work and realized that I did not have a valid parking tag, nor did I have the Office Birthday Snack for one of my office-mates. I drove back home, got the parking tag and thought... I wonder if my work key is at the gym. I tried to look up their number, but as soon as I did, the internet on the home computer went out. Not even ipconfig \renew * would fix it (which pretty much assured me that it was there).
I zipped over to the store and got the supplies I'd need for the day. I wound up driving by the gym, and picked up the key that had in fact, fallen out of my pocket (or something) Tuesday night. Surprisingly enough, there was a parking stall open when I got to work (I can only assume that Retrograde Mercury caused one of the undeserving SUV drivers to have a flat tire).
