Not that this is going to be my blogging schedule, but it appears I only post on Mondays this year. I might as well keep with that and post something today. I'm not sure last week really counted, since it was just a youtube I shared with you. Oh well.
I'm feeling pretty good today. For one, it's my 4th day off in a row (back to the grind tomorrow). I got up and went to the gym this morning and took my frustrations out on some equiptment. I wasn't really frustrated, I'm not sure why I just said that. I'm finding I actually get more done at the gym when K isn't there. When she's with me, we talk too much. I'm not going to tell her that though.. and you better not either. She and I "worked out" yesterday, but it wasn't any good because she was late. I had already put in 29 minutes on the treadmill at a 5.0 incline at 4.5 speed. Shut up, I have asthma. When she arrived and wanted to do another 30 min. (our usual), I didn't feel like it, so I walked on the one next to her while she exercised. We moved to the cardios and gabbed some more. I made up for it today though. I went to the lifestyle machine and stuck my arm in it so it can take my blood pressure and do some other things to me. My b/p was 85/59. My heart rate was 90. My f*cking BMI was 24. Let's face it, I'm never going to have %10 body fat. Never ever.
Someone wants back in my life. I care about this person, but I don't trust him. I can't even allow myself to love this person. It really doesn't bother me at all.. but it bothers him. This person doesn't understand the magnitude of his multiple deceptions and how that has contributed to the fact we are NOT together. He reads this blog.. but don't let that stop you from commenting. He says he doesn't read it anymore but I know better.
I've stopped all communication with this person several times in the past but he's a weasel and figures out ways to semi get back 'in'.
I did my taxes last night and I'm one of those people that are going to be delayed due to the AMT. Lovely.
I'm not really bothered too much by it though, apparently the IRS is going to start accepting our returns early to mid February. That's what I get for taking classes and working.
Did any of you hear about the 70 vehicle pile-up on interstate 4 a couple weeks ago? It was probably 15-20 min. from me. I wasn't affected by it and I certainly wasn't on I4 at 4 am but it involved 20 semis and 50 cars. Not only were they dealing with fog, but there had been a "controlled burn" in the area the previous day that got a bit out of hand. So the combination of fog and thick smoke created a blanked and these vehicles all drove into each other. I guess there is some controversy because the FHP said that smoke/fog "wasn't a factor" and then later it was reported that the FHP's were on the news saying they couldn't see their hand in front of their face if they held it out, which was a contradiction to what they previously stated. They launched an investigation (people died in this accident) and the FHP started writing tickets to the people in the crash for reckless op!!! A few days later, it was demanded (I'm sure from attorneys) that the FHP hand over their audio and video tapes from that morning. Sure enough, there were several on there saying how thick the smoke and fog was... how they couldn't even see, but failed to detour traffic. Ok.. so do the crash victims still have to pay these ridiculous citations??
One guy was trapped in his vehicle with pretty severe wounds. They were having extreme difficulty tryint to excavate him from the metal mess that was once his car, so at one point, he had an FHP or rescue worker dig for his cell phone and call his wife, so he could tell her goodbye. The FHP admitted they didn't think they would be able to remove him alive. They eventually did. I don't know how it turned out though.
