hot monday

it's 1800 hours pm in the evening, it's like...7000 degrees out, i'm sweating like an overweight eastern european on a bangkok sex tour.  today was super fucking hot.
yesterday sort of sucked a bit, work wasn't too bad, but overall i just felt beaten down.  came home exhausted, went to bed, slept amazing, so i got that going for me.

woke up today and went to the gym, lifted more weight than last time.  each time i go, i try to increase weight, even if only a little bit.  i used to think i should do a set number of sets at the same weight, then move up each week.  fuck that.  each time i go to the gym, i am increasing weight, even if only for one set.  and i like it.  i like my new routine, i pared away the extra crap (for now) and i'm just doing basic big moves with heavy weight.  eventually, when i feel like it, i will start to do other exercises and spend an hour or two indoors lifting weights because yeah, that is what i want to do with my life.

didn't ride today though, it was windy and about 800 degrees out.  tomorrow me and george are gonna ride, we are going out at about 1030 because he has kid stuff he has to do, so it should be uncomfortably hot.  if i start hydrating now, i should only be slightly dehydrated tomorrow and only suffer just a little.

tonight i am making citrus marinated salmon with a watercress coulis, and caponata.  no they don't really go together, but i don't much give a fuck. chef thomas keller isn't going to come to my house and get all upset because i made caponata to eat along side his salmon, so i aint sweating it too much.

nothing really going on at the moment, and that isn't too bad.  i sort of like it.

ok, time to blanch some watercress and get on with dinner.  life aint too shabby right now.
