Blah. I feel horrible. I have been awake since 2:45 AM. I finally got out of bed so that I wouldn't keep my hubby up. Nothin' like listening to someone toss and turn and blow their nose in bed, right? I think I will send him into my office this morning to get my laptop and tell the boss I am working from home. We have a bunch of stupid people at the office who do not stay home when they are sick.....so everyone gets it. I AM NOT GOING TO BRING THIS CRAP BACK TO WORK! We all have laptops and cell phones so that we can work remotely--so why not?

I am going to go grab the soft blanket, my pillow and my tissue box and get cozy on the sofa. Oh yeah, and turn off the AC while I am at it. It is kinda cold in here.

Update: Hypocrite, anyone? Here I am, one of the stupid people, at work...but I'm not feeling too bad, really. The DayQuil seems to be keeping my little cold symptoms at bay. It's not really contagous unless you are runny and coughing and sneezing, right?

I'm planning to keep our schedule of going to the gym today. However, I think I am just going to keep it to moderate cardio and not do the weight training. That shouldn't be too difficult...and I won't be touching anything really, on the treadmill. Just the buttons to get the thing started. It should be alright....I won't infect anyone who comes after me.

More: Okay. I am bored. Really bored. I was thinking about going shopping, but I have nothing to shop for. My boss blew off our meeting--again. I wonder why I ever expect him to NOT blow it off? I have four more hours of "work" to sit through. As a professional seat-warmer, I wonder if I would be jeapordizing my job if my @ss was smaller? LOL.

You know this weight loss could really affect the efficiency of my seat warming. If my rear gets too small, I'll have to keep shuffling around in my seat to keep it all warm. Heaven forbid my boss actually come and check out how warm it is one day, and *BAM*, parts of it were actually cold. Oh man, I'd be in real trouble then! Add one more to the weekly unemployment rolls.....

Further Update: We had a great workout. Did I pass on the weight training? NO--But I did go back to last week's weight levels and cut the reps to 12 from 15....Did I take it easy on cardio? HELL NO--I PUSHED MYSELF HARDER. And it felt great.

I remember from my old body building days that if my nose was runny, that would quit while I was working out. Same thing happened today. But, the second my body realized my workout was over, the faucet turned back on. I hope I don't have this issue tomorrow.

Well, I just couldn't keep myself off the scales. I lost another 3/4 lb during this workout. I'd really like to be able to understand this more. It is fascinating to me. I should do some research.

It seems like I am really light on the calories today, but I am not hungry. I'm not going to fill up my calories on crap, either. I did enough of that over the weekend, thank you very much.

Well, Scott and I are both exhausted and are going to go to bed a little earlier tonight.

Hasta manana.
