"It takes a long time to grow an old friend." - by John Leonard

What a weekend it turned out to be! My girlfriends came up and visited. We went to Chinese the night they got here and caught up over crab rangoons and mongolian chicken. Then we just came back to the house and crashed after a busy day of work for all of us. We woke up Saturday, hung around for a bit, went and grabbed coffee at a local coffee house while we chatted it up, ran to the mall for a little lazy shopping, and then we went out to a New Orleans cuisine place that night. We chilled out with margaritas and Super Mario on Wii. Sunday was another chill day at Buffalo Wild Wings while we watched part of the Vikings game.

Monday was pretty productive. I did P90X - chest and back, cleaned my house, and went to my orthopedic doctor for my wrist. I have learned that I am going to get surgery on my wrist. We scheduled it for Feb. 10. They are going to cut the side, clean it out, stitch it up, and cast it for 2 weeks. Awesome, right? So as much as I don't want surgery, it might be the best thing for me at this point.

P90X - Week 2: Chest and Back and Plyometrics

I did chest and back last night and it was much easier than week one, but it still kicked my butt. I feel stronger and better as each day goes on.
Plyometrics was as horrible as I remember. I did it tonight...I know that it works SO well and I sweat, but geez, it kicks my a$$! I have to keep thinking *bikini in Miami*!

I need to do a little more work on the diet, which will be easier once I get paid Friday and can shop for some more healthy food. I won't lie, eating healthy is more expensive. Fresh fruits and veggies cost more. I like how I feel now that my food choices are better.

Okay, I need to grade some papers and get ready for bed. See ya!
