Friday – 28 August 2009
Welcome to the weekend… well, almost the weekend. It’s my “On” Friday, but I’m off next Friday… which will kick off a four-day weekend, thanks to Labor Day. And, as the first one in the bullpen today, I kicked off the morning with Tank! and 2112. That’s not such a bad way to start the morning.

Last night, SaraRules and I went to dinner at Cafe Zupas; it was a nice change of pace. I had the Honey Bacon Club panini and the Shrimp and Sausage Gumbo; SaraRules had the Thai Peanut Chicken Salad and the Yucatan Chicken Tortilla Soup.

After dinner, we met SaraRules’ coworker – and former schoolmate – Melissa at the gym for a workout:

• Calf Raises – 3 sets/10 reps, 100 lbs
• Leg Curls – 3 sets/10 reps, 70 lbs
• Leg Extensions – 3 sets/10 reps, 70 lbs
• Lower Back Extensions – 3 sets/10 reps
• Bench Press – 3 sets/10 reps, 185 lbs
• Sit-ups (incline) – 3 sets/10 reps
• Curls (dumbbell) – 3 sets/10 reps, 25 lbs
• Tricep Extensions (rope) – 3 sets/15 reps, 50 lbs
• Core (plank) – 3 sets, 45 seconds
