Working Out: Went to the gym Sunday. 100-something calories in 12 minutes on the rowing machine. There were a surprising number of people at the gym. I was wearing my contacts, which kind of makes it hard to see some of the settings. 3X12X60 lbs on the pec fly. 3X12X85lbs on the lat pull-down. 3X13 suspended curls. 4X12 oblique curls. 3X12X30 triceps curls. 3X12X35 barbell curls. 3X4X12lb dumbbell shoulder shrugs. 3X12X12lb dumbbell uh, triceps pulls (I forget what they're called). Some random dumbbell upper-shoulder things. I'm sure something dreadful played on the stereo.
Wednesday
I'm in a funk. (Throws back of hand to forehead in a silent movie fashion and utters, "Then my world turned to ashes and the sun was darkened in my eyes.")
I'm not going to focus on it here too much--because focusing on it seems to perpetuate it--other than to wonder if it's summer and I'm in a funk, what's it going to be like in The Deep Dark Winter.
Unpleasant dreams last night, probably prompted by reading about a 1960 American biological psychologist who used electrical pulses to the pleasure center of the brain to condition psychiatric patients, including gay men.
The rains are coming back. Or at least the clouds. This morning is going to be a warm mug morning.
Thursday
Woke up feeling sore in my hands and feet. Looked out the window: yep, there are rain clouds out there all right.
Working Out: Went to the gym. 220 calories in 20 minutes on the eliptical. 3X12X60 lbs on the pec fly. 3X12X85lbs on the lat pull-down (I've switched machines to one with a different gradation of weights). 3X13 suspended curls. 3X8 oblique curls. 2X12X30 triceps curls. Then I needed to leave.

Friday
Slogging away at a short story. Writing has been difficult this week; I feel like I'm plodding away but not moving forward. This is the peril of "exploratory writing."
I re-read some old blog posts... and noticed the parts where I sound like a broken record. I need to fix that.
