...moreover...

Sunday i did a strange, half-fast hodge-podge of an irongym workout. Wanted to get a workout in, but i was still torn down from the comp. Started out doing back. That looked to be the road to tendonitis, so i switched to chest. Did 20 sluggish pullups, then did a set of 5 differential pullups on each arm (where i used a strap and lowered one arm to start at about shoulder height). That was no fun, so i did incline DB press. Did maybe three sets, and i felt like poo. Didn't feel weak, just supremely unmotivated--low pain tolerance or something. Finished out with 3 sets of 8 on dips, and some flys. Then i went home and concentrated on getting a better night o' sleep than the previous night.

Yesterday (mon.) i did an hour run. Actually got an ok time on it. That is to say, i'm getting back to where i was before The Poisoning, and i can imagine getting much faster. It didn't hurt to do the run. i wanted to ride, but the bike was flat. That's the price you pay to ride in this place: i had at least ten goatheads all the way through my tires. 'Fact, i just dropped a c-note on a couple 'o new tires yesterday. Finally starting to get back into shape i think. Prognosis is kinda' bleak for a workout tonight, but i might squish a swim in tonight. we'll see. Hope things are going well in Allen. Sounds like a really good time.

Fellas!!! Comms through the radio silence. i thought maybe you'd dropped off'n the earth. Very good to see you're both kickin' and breathin'.

Hey B, i got about 5 mos. left of classroom. Then it's on to a year of clinicals. How's the flying going? still diggin' it?

Comp went ok, i reckon. It's somewhere in the last 5 or so posts. You back from the border yet?
