ugh - part 2

Today was a bad day.

I'm hoping tomorrow is better.

ugh

Getting up early to go to work downtown for stupid reasons really sucks.

Trying to have a positive outlook on it... but really just pissed about the whole deal.

Almost forgot

Breaking Bad is coming back for a second season.

If you haven't watched the first season... go do so now. It is amazingly good. Quite gritty and real compared to a lot of stuff out there.

Plus, seeing Bryan Cranston (the father from Malcolm in the Middle) being a badass is awesome in its own right.

Consequences

Some of the consequences for being sick are that yo send a lot of time doing nothing. So I've been spending time doing nothing. Well by nothing I mean watching TV and the such.

Anyways, I watched My Name is Bruce.. which is just hilarious. Check it out. So what if I have an unnatural affinity to Bruce Campbell. I've also been watching Dollhouse. The new Joss Whedon thing. Honestly, it sort of sucks. I'm trying to give it fair shot and the story is pretty interesting. The only problem is that Eliza Dushku is really bringing it down. I don't know if Joss is just trying to do a cross between Firefly and Buffy... but man.. it isn't working. Give me more spaceships.. seriously.

Let's see, what else. The Bridge is really good, yet incredibly depressing. I'd only suggest watching this if you have someone to talk about it afterwards with. Blood In Blood Out is epic in its cheesiness. Lots of medium name actors in this, I was sort of surprised. A decent watch though it drags on a bit in the middle.

That's about all I've watched lately. Can't wait to exchange TV time for workout time.

Sort of sick

So I've been fighting off a semi-cold for a few days now. Probably acquired it from some few Aikido practitioners during last weeks crazy aikidoness. It isn't excessively bad.. I sound like crap and my nose has decided to leak like a broken faucet (I really tried to come up with a better analogy.. but couldn't. I'm sick, leave me alone). I took yesterday off from work and just lazed around the house trying to drink a lot of fluids and not get snot over everything.

Anyways, today I woke up early since I didn't do crap yesterday. I went to work... putzed around there for about an hour.. then went to the gym. I'm tired of putting off things that I like to do only because I'm sick. Lifting wasn't so bad.. though I might have annoyed the fellow gym-goers since I was sniffling like a girl dumped the day of the prom (better analogy!)... but I felt good lifting. Probably taking the last 5 days off from lifting allowed my muscles to feel much better. After I lifted I went and swam for a bit. Hopefully the excessively chlorited YMCA water will help clear me out.

My throat still hurts, but I don't think it is from being sick. It isn't that sort of soreness. I think it is still from getting elbowed in the neck over the weekend. Since it only hurts on one side... and it is tender to the touch. Yes, my neck was tenderized by a guys elbow.

Ok, I'm out.
