Catchup
Hey guys. Sorry, I'm really bad about updating this thing lately. I'll get better, promise!
Right now, I've got my fingers in too many pies. Work's going well, er... should I say... I'm getting more proficient at my job - figuring out problems and such. It's nice to be able to solve things. I'm trying to take more initiative.
I got a letter of commendation last week. One of the higher ups is leaving and he wrote a letter to each of our supervisors for every individual on the team. My supervisor put me in for an award and a $250 cash bonus. Which was nice. That was a good time to ask for a promotion, which is exempt from the salary freeze. So we'll see how that turns out.
What else am I doing? I'm writing articles for Craig, and one's due right now. Top 10 lists that deal with meeting women. It'll be some extra cash, which I could use, and I'll learn from the expert. Always a good thing.
Parkour = excellent. I learned cat grabs the other night. Kicked ass on it. Tonight, monkey kongs. You'd know what it was if you saw it. Looking forward to it, but praying I don't get hurt. But by the end of the night, I'll either have it down solid, or I won't.
Doing really well with CrossFit this week. Kick ass performance. I'm beating some of our firebreathers.
We did this one the other day:
2 Rounds
10 GHD Situps
20 Knees To Elbows
30 Situps
10 Deadlifts @ 225#
20 KB Swings @ 24kg
30 GH Raises
10 Box Jumps @ 20"
20 Jumping Lunges
30 Double Unders
10 HSPU
20 Ring Dips
30 Pushups
32:01 Rx
That was a lot of fun, actually. As you can see, 4 triplets (3 exercises that target one muscle group). Although I gotta say one round was more than enough. Ouch!
I'm also participating in the CrossFit band, which we've named AMRAP. We've decided to debut at the CrossFit Prom in 2 weeks which doesn't give us a lot of time. And this is the first time I've ever played with other musicians, so it's an interesting experience. I'm loving it.
I'll leave you with a commericial we shot last night for the band. Enjoy.
