bit of trouble sleeping...
The long nap in the afternoon when my eyes were fubar-ed caused that...had nothing to do with me staying up this late playing LotRO, nosireebob.
I wasn't going to play Lord of the Rings Online...but some friends were having fun, I was bored, and I got a free copy for GamersInfo.net. Sigh.
(Mental note: must blog there, too)
I haven't been able to find the lock I use at the gym. It's fairly distinctive; it's my trigger lock from my Remington.
Unfortunately, while that's not a bad thing normally, as it's gotten nice enough out that I can go to the gym in my workout clothes and not having to worry about ditching a ton of stuff in a locker, I haven't been able to drive the car the last two days thanks to the registration snafu. (The SR-22 has been sent to the DMV, so I should be able to register it tomorrow. Whew.) Which means if I want to go...I've got to put my stuff in my locker.
And while my locker has never been robbed, nor anybody else's that I know there, I still don't want to put a several hundred dollar helmet, several hundred dollar leather jacket, jeans, wallet, whatever, that I need to carry and/or wear in order to ride legally and safely in an unlocked locker.
Today I was going up the wall about it, and driving Matt & Cathy a bit up the wall, too, I think. I was also being cranky, and I knew it, and I was trying to stay out of the way.
Finally I got a ride to the gym, which meant I got home from there around 9:15 PM and then ate. And hey - I'm in a much better mood now. Fancy that.
There's a definitively less amount of the feeling of bloat that I had from last week already this week. Abstaining from drinking and getting back on the diet helped. For instance, today's eating was:
100 calorie Nutter Butter - breakfast (2 pts)
5 Morningstar Farms meatless buffalo wings, 100 calorie pack Doritos, 100 calorie pack of cheetos, healthy choice ice cream sandwich - lunch (4+2+2+2=10 pts)
1 Weight Watchers lemon cake - snack (1 pt)
1 bowl of soup, 1 salad, 1 white chicken egg roll, 2 salmon burgers, one ice cream sandwich - dinner (2.5+1+3+3.5+2=12 pts)
28-56 sticks pretzels - snack (4.5 pts)
That's 29.5 points out of 32 that I'm allowed for the day. That's not counting the exercise points (30 minutes vigorous walking, to the doctor and back (2 pts), 60 minutes on the exercise bike (10 pts), 30-40 minutes lifting (2-3 pts)) which I could cash in.
I really, really, really wanted beer and pizza today. After last week, though, I know what it can do. And after I had some soup that craving went away. (Also the realization that I would need to get delivery...)
Oh, and the final fun bit - last night realized that the tail light on my bike was drooping. I think I have it fixed now, but that's another thing to add to the list when I take it to the shop in a while for a 20K service...
(And no, it was on the opposite side of the bike from where dad wrecked it.)
