It was still snowing when I woke up this morning.
And there was a trace of accumulation.
Madness!

Workout
Today’s routine was less… stellar than some recent ones have been. But, it was a workout, nonetheless:

  • Leg Raises: 3 sets / 20reps
  • Bench Press (barbell): 3 sets
    • Set 1: 5 reps, 225 lbs, 5 res, 185 lbs
    • Sets 2 & 3: 10 reps, 185 lbs
  • Curls (barbell): 3 sets / 10 reps, 55 lbs
  • Flys (Nautilus): 3 sets / 15 reps, 95 lbs
  • Curls (dumbbell, Hammer grip): 3 sets, 10 reps, 20 lbs
  • Decline Oblique Crunches: 1 set / 10 reps per side

The inside of my shoulder started to twinge a bit during the first set of bench presses, so I decided to back off on the weight. That seemed to help some, but there was still a little sore-/tenderness. I’ll be keeping an eye on that.

Pre-workout weight: 172.8 lbs.

Stray Toasters

  • Last night, while waiting for dinner to cook, I read this week’s four-color haul. There were a LOT of reveals in different books:
    • Action Comics
    • DC Universe 0
    • The New Avengers

    And not just throw-away stuff, either. Some good solid “Oscillating blades, meet fecal material” setup for this summer’s events.

  • By way of : Stupid, stupid burning brightly or how not to win an election
  • You’re charging me for what?! Airline fees way up since January 1
  • The bottom line.
  • pinged me this morning to say that he had just seen the new trailer for The Incredible Hulk. As he put it: “…didn’t realize there was going to be Hulk-on-Hulk action” I explained that it was actually The Abomination… but that it technically was Hulk-on-Hulk action.
  • I am going to miss CSI: tonight, as SaraRules and I are going out with friends, but this amuses me:

  • As I neither saw a mushroom cloud nor heard calls for evacuations from the valley, I am going to take it on good faith that now has his PS3 and GTA4… and that no innocents were unduly harmed in the process of him acquiring it. The guilty, however… well… sometimes, you just have to set an example.
  • Speaking of GTA4: For everyone who is so worried about its content, repeat after me: “It’s a GAME. I really should get over it.”

Namaste.
