I'm really having trouble getting work done lately. It's having a pretty detrimental effect on the rest of my life, and that sucks. I end up staying at the office later, which results in not going to the gym, which makes me just stay up later, which makes me get to the office later, etc, etc, it's a vicious cycle.

Clearly, I'm not accomplishing my goal of being passionate and intense about my job. Actually, let's check in with my action items:

1) Write out a daily schedule, down to the hour, that includes time for workouts.

This one I've done a couple times, have been pretty good about sticking to it when I actually write it out. I should do this more.


2) Pack my lunches so I can monitor my workday caloric intake.

I suck at this. However, I think I've been eating less at work. I got some bagel chips and hummus, which was awesome for a couple lunches, and I'm drinking more water. I think the key is just to have healthier general food items around rather than always going to Potbelly's or Fake Panera.


3) Stop using my work computer for anything personal.

Word.


4) Eliminate boring, non-interactive computer addictions.

I've dropped the online puzzle site. It was so awesome, but a pretty serious time drain. I still play waaaaaaaay too much Facebook Boggle.


5) Time spent watching TV will also be ab-workout time.

Did planks today and it was AWESOME.



So, I'm not doing great, but I'm on my way. Bad habits suck.

Spring league starts this weekend, wooooot! I'm sooo so stoked to play again! Yelena's friend Jessica from Nemesis drafted me onto her team! I hear she is very good at ultimate. I can't wait to play with her.

Jess Hellyer?! She is awesome! She was also my buddy for the season and got me awesome gifts and then her boyfriend wanted to be my buddy too so I got double gifts! Oh and you should ask her about breakdancing class. Apparently, she, her boyfriend and Val are taking breakdancing lessons together and it's just 3 of them in the intermediate class and Val now has a "breakdancing shoulder" whatever that means. Is it weird to comment in a work-out blog?

Ooooh I want to go to breakdancing class! That sounds awesome.

Not at all weird to comment in a work-out blog. It makes me want to work out more because I know people are paying attention -- hooray for public accountability!

I'm super psyched to meet Jess. We were supposed to do Bikram Yoga a couple weeks ago but I had the plague and it seemed like a bad idea at the time.
