TGIF

Well well, the week is finally over. Over all it was pretty good, seemed to be a little long. I think that was because I started new hours so I had to get up earlier and had more time after work. I don't know about you all but I am pretty excited about this storm heading our way. I hope we get 2 feet, but I'm not looking forward to the cold that they are saying is coming next week. Oh well take the good with the bad. One step closer to ice climbing and most the out door rinks are up so that's sweet.
So after work today I went to the gym, again no place to park. This is seriously getting frustrating. The work out went well. I felt really motivated and felt strong. While at the gym I noticed a few things. No matter where you work out there are always the weird people. Not like I'm one to judge, but you know what I'm talking about the dude with the super short shorts and the Pantera tank top with the hair sweeter underneath or the lady that just walks around with 7lbs weights doing shrugs and curls with this puzzled look on her face, not sure what she was trying accomplish. The other thing that I noticed were the people that do exercises that are doing nothing productive for them or may even injure them. I'm not saying I'm an expert or a trainer but this guy by me was doing sit ups on a Swiss ball but he never went backwards just sat there moving his shoulder and head up and down with his hands on his head....? Or the old guy just swinging weights around, I can't believe he doesn't have torn rotators cuffs. Sometimes I just want to say something, but I guess it's not my place but maybe the should get a trainer just to show them how to do proper exercise. Oh well at least they are tying to work out and stay healthy.
After the gym I went to Kelly's parents and helped her dad hang out some Christmas lights and then ate some pizza. I'm a sucker, will work for food, haha. Then I was subjected to a Christmas movie until Kelly's mom enlisted Kelly's help in decorating the inside of the house. I don't know call me scrooge if you want but Christmas lights don't make much sense to me. Yeah they look cool some time and set the Christmas mood, but they take a lot of time to set up and take down and they make your electrical bill super high. Seem like a waste of time to me.
If you guys get bored this weekend the us cyclocross championships are this weekend and they are streaming live video on Sunday -www.usacycling.org/news/user/story.php?id=5726 check it out.
