Oh My...Time is Ticking On By

Some days it is so easy to get out of bed and others, not so much.

Yesterday I was up and at it at 5:30 and on the spin bike a little after six. I didn't push myself too terribly hard but I broke a good sweat and I am feeling better and better about the bike leg part of the race. I am a little worried because I haven't been out to Spruce Grove to go along the paths and roads that the race will take us on. I still have a week, but I know as well as anyone that a week is a very short time.

Getting out of bed was near impossible this morning. My back is not letting me sleep well and although it has gotten better it still hurts quite a bit. I went to the massage therapist over my Lunch yesterday. It helped a bit but I think I need a chiropractor now. I don't have time to be hurt or get to fixing myself.

Tomorrow I hope to go through the full cycle at the gym. Afterwards I'll be heading down to Chestermere to train with Kate again on Sunday. I am very much looking forward to that. It is nice to have someone keep me motivated.

I am still unsure as to whether or not they will allow iPods or not, I am guessing not. I am a bit worried about not having music to keep me moving. Actually, to be quite frank, I am terrified of not having music to keep me going. I'll find a way to get by.

Other than that there is much to report on training.

Tanner dropped off my Office fish and he has settled in nicely. He has made some friends around campus already. Norm, the security guy, wrote a response to a note I wrote on the whiteboard hanging on my door. I wrote "in case of a fire please save my fish" Norm wrote back "I will" and signed his name underneath as such:

  Norm
(Security)

On that note, in the unlikely occurrence of my early demise I herby leave The Fish Who is Not Yet Named in the care of Norm, the campus security-man. Norm may also obtain custody of The Fish Who is Not Yet Named should I be deemed physically or mentally unfit to care for The Fish Who is Not Yet Named.

I should also mention here in that Ahkmed goes back to the custody of my favorite brother Travis and Mohinder goes to Miss. Hailey Hailstorm.

Now back to being serious... Oh wait I forgot about Deliah and Charlotte. Um, Travis will also be godfather to Deliah and Tanner to Charlotte. Should any one or more of those mentioned above choose not to accept their responsibility I leave the creature/s left without care to Melissa Mieir. (Sorry Melissa)

Okay, now that I have safely willed off all my babies on my blog, back to blabber.

I still have a ton of work to do at the campus and of my own stuff before school starts. I think The Fish Who is Not Yet Named needs to pick up some slack. I've been neglecting a lot of things while working towards my goals for the triathlon and while training for and settling into my campus job. I'm exhausted by 20:00hrs (8:00) each day. It's ridiculous. Last night I went to take a hot pan out of the oven with my bare hand. I stopped myself in time thank gawd. I kept opening the fridge or a cupboard and just stared into it because I forgot what I was looking for. I had to look at the five ingredient recipe eighteen times to complete it. I need a sleep in and lazy day but there is no time for such things. On the 6th however, I will turn my alarms and phone off and hide in my house watching movies and reading. It is going to be great.
