Surprisingly Good Weekend
Friday came and I was not looking forward to working at all. I could not go out that night and I could not attend a picnic I had wanted to attend either.
On the plus side, I went to the gym that night and set two new PR's. I did 3x10 with 265lbds for the close grip barbell bench press and 3x12x385lbds for shrugs. The best part of the shrugs is that my grip did not fail even once, although I did use a reverse grip.
While on the topic of training, my conditioning has been improving weekly. My waist is getting tighter and my muscles pop out more. Begone winter padding, begone!
I worked all day Saturday, got home, and sped off to Ocala with my consort to eat at Sky Restaurant. They serve asian fusion cuisine and I think it is impossible to get a bad meal there. We met up with a friend and his date and surprisingly, I had a really good time. I usually feel uncomfortable and I clam up in situations like this, but it felt natural and fun.
Upon our return to Gainesville, we visited some friends for Chron_Job's and Masterbunnyfu's dual birthday celebration. The vibe was definitely pleasant and it was good as always to see so many friends at once. It reminded me of some of my early clubbing days, when I would go to Simons, Full Circle, or The Castle and see 20-30 people that I knew at once.
Today was another day at work. I am looking forward to dinner and the Roller Derby game. I don't work tomorrow, so I feel really relaxed.
