I'm spending more time at the gym. Not buff yet (I like food too much for muscles to show up), but I can deadlift 115, bench 65, and squat 95 on a good day (bad knees = not many good days).  So that's nice.

I get home each night and all I can really think about is how badly I want to crawl into bed and stay there, and every time I think of going in to work, I'm now ( Read more... )

Feeling really shitty lately, on an emotional and physical level. The ingrown toenails are one hell of a pain, literally and figuratively, and having had the podiatrist hack at them only creates a new pain on both levels, because of the after-care involved.
