21 ... surely it's a habit now?

Today was 21 workouts in a row! I made myself go this morning even though I am extremely sore from yesterday's weights workout. After I get back from walking the dogs, I'll do the upper body workout. I'm going to have to decide if I'm going to replace the cardio workout with the weights on some days, or if I'm just going to do the entire weights workout 3 days per week and do upper and lower in the same day. I cannot maintain on a daily basis - for any length of time - a cardio workout at the gym, then a weight workout at home, in combination with my dog walking. It eats up a good 3-4 hours of my day, depending on how much I dawdle in between activities. Anyway, I'm still planning to work out both days this weekend. On Monday, I'll decide if I'm going to go for 30-days-in-a-row, ala Vy. I must say, the fact that I just decided to do it everyday has actually made it much easier. Not allowing myself to debate whether I'm going, or trade around days I'm taking off, just makes the daily battle of going much more minimal because my mind knows I must go, so might as well go now.

FYI, my menu blog is not displaying properly. I'm working on it. Very frustrating. (Edit: Fixed! I had to recreate the entire blog, but since there were only 5 posts, no big deal. Thank goodness it didn't happen with this blog else I'd be quite annoyed).

Finally, before I go on our walk I really must complain about this: I read that a bunch of NY politicians are protesting the new season of Survivor because of the division of teams by race. How stupid are you to actually protest before you see the show? First, all it does is fuel the fire and make people want to watch the damn show. Second, you can't very well judge something you haven't yet seen. It's like judging a movie before you've seen it. You certainly have the right to say the material is not to your taste so you're going to avoid seeing it, but you just sound like a prejudiced moron when you criticize the content without even watching. Finally, it's a game, people! No one got their panties in a bunch when groups on these shows were separated based on gender, or based on age, or based on high-school education vs. college education. Why should race be any different? The outcome of these shows means nothing. It's a stupid reality show. It could very well turn out to be a horrible idea, but I prefer to wait and make up my own mind. Not have it made up for me by politicians. I am really starting to loathe politicians. Except for Barack Obama, who should be our next president.

  1. You remind of me of my Dad. He is a self proclaimed anarchist since he hates politicians so much.
