More ouch

Ouch

Still hurt from Saturday’s workout.

I have to pick my stocks for the Employee Stock Market Game. Gotta get the entry in by 9:30. Each entrant picks 5 stocks, and gets an imaginary $10,000 to put into each stock. No buying/selling allowed during the (I think) 10 week period of the contest. Whoever’s portfolio does best at the end wins. I traditionally stink at this game, so I’m not putting much effort into it this year.

Mood: Happy
Wt: 145.4. WTF?!?!? Lemme get this straight…after not having dinner on Saturday night, and having only 2 apples and a half a banana for lunch yesterday, I’m UP? Excuse me here, I’ve been walking the demonic creature that I call my dog every day, rain or shine, for almost a whole lap around the apartment complex. I went to yoga on Wednesday, did a gym workout on Thursday, and did a Body Pump class on Saturday where I worked so freaking hard that my entire body STILL feels like it’s been bludgeoned with a bag of oranges and I STILL walk like I have some sort of neuromuscular disorder. And my weight is UP? Where is the Justice here??!?

Damn, I’m pissed.

Work docket: Did Ingle, and a frameset for a special section that we’re linking to. Have to pick my stocks, and work on a promotional site for a contest that Marketing’s starting. A contest for which all I have is a list of rules. No logo. No artwork. No list of sponsors. Nothing.

And I’m 145 again?!??!

Lunch plans: Lean Cuisine Herbed chicken thing.

Not that it’ll help things…I may as well eat a can of lard and a Butterfinger bar.

Afternoon plans: Stop at bank, walk the dog.

Which, apparently, gives me NO physical benefit at all.

Evening plans: Have to continue laundry. Would like to vaccuumm (sp?) the floor as well, and maybe get rid of the deadness which is my garden.

I have a fantasy football team on Smallworld.com. I sold my soul (actually, just downgraded a few players) to get Brett Favre on my team. And he sucked yesterday.

And I’m 145 again?!?!? AIEE! That’s NINE up from my lowest point.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
