Home Alone

This week has been weird. I'm home alone, minding the "children" (ie: the cat and dog... who are acting like little brats. Apparently, they do that when my mom is gone). It's strange being in the house alone. I don't think I like it.

Studying... is going...

I start work on Monday at Children's. I'm pumped about that. Need to get off my butt.

Speaking of... Met with the Trainer on Friday. He kicked my ass. Full out, on the ground, thought I was going to faint or hurl, butt-kicking. I can run 10k, but I'm out of shape. So I chugged some water, sucked it up, and finished out the hour. I haven't been in this much post-workout pain since the suicide practice in high school basketball (our coach was pissed at us missing our free-throws during a game and he told us that we'd have to run a suicide for every one we missed in the second half... Our point guard had an off day. My shots weren't dropping either. And we had 45 minutes straight of suicides... Resulted in one girl with a strained hammy, 2 people puked, and I didn't want to move the next day... So SORE!) Anyway. I said "please sir, can I have some more." I have another round with the trainer in 2 weeks, and I fully intend to have it go much better (and I plan on having breakfast before I go to train). The yoga is going really well too... kicked my butt yesterday, but it was HOT in the studio.

I've also been icing my knee. It seems to be helping the pain issue. Not fully fixing the clicking, but I can deal with that if I'm pain free. So... only other thing to add is the final Summer Soundtrack for 2009. It's more chill than my recent stuff, but that's because I'm not running. Workout music tends to drive things a bit faster on my itunes. Studying slows it down. But... it's great music.
