Summer of George, Day 28
Tonight I grilled salmon with my aunt, or rather mostly watched and helped a little bit as she grille salmon. However you look at it though, the salmon was delicious! I am going to do that again sometime pretty soon probably. And we also made dill sauce from a recipe that I found online, and it turned out quite good as well. With that we had grilled zucchini and yellow squash with onions, and brown rice with crushed nuts and chopped green onions. It was a very tasty and healthy meal! Most of the afternoon was spent out at my grandma's house as well, and before that was grocery shopping for tonight's meal, and the early part of the day was spent on breakfast, coffee, and about a three hour workout, which I wanted to shorten but just couldn't.
My workout was shoulders and chest, and of course abs and cardio. Shoulders are coming along quite well, and the chest exercises I did went pretty well too. I screwed up something in my back doing my barbell shrugs on the last set, with 295, I'm just not used to standing there holding that much weight. I had someone crack my back not too long afterwards, and that seemed to help a lot, and it is only a minor ache right now. if it gets no worse, I think I dodged a bullet, because I could feel somthing slip or crack or something, and then feel out of place. Perhaps I'll switch back to dumbells for next week, though historically those are even worse, because it's awkward to twist around and rack them. How my back feels tomorrow and Saturday will determine whether I squat Saturday.
I must also write about my book. It just keeps getting better. Without going into long detail, suffice to say that the future in this alternate timeline, or whatever it is, is very interesting. They jumped 25 years into their future, basically all the DS9 regulars except Nog, who is now a captain and works for the senile Admiral Picard. Well anyway, the DS9 crew jumped from before Voyager returned to the Alpha Quadrant, and so was unaware of those developments. Then they met up with the Doctor! Shortly after that, Seven of Nine came into the room, and they were making reference to Admiral Janeway waiting for them! This is where I had to stop, so I don't know who else might pop up. I'm hoping maybe Tuvok though! Anyway, it is quite a good book, and I will likely spend at least some time reading it at some point tomorrow. But that is all for now.
