Weather, Weights, Watch, Weekend

According to top meteorological sources in Europe, the weather in Ireland today can be described as being, speaking in scientific terms,


Nippy.


Thanks, Europe. I'm no longer surprised that the US won the race to put a man on the moon, or decode the human genome. Your use of scientific terms is depressingly lagging.

LOL



SO! FRIDAY, HUH?! YEAH IT IS! You'll have to pardon my excessive peppiness; it stems from a killer workout yesterday and a trip to Starbux this morning. That's right: I had a few extra minutes for Starbucks this morning. Could it be because of....





SLEEP WATCH?! Hell yes, it could be because of sleep watch. And you doubted it! Fi, fi! Sleep watch woke me up this morning a couple of minutes before my alarm, and despite all inclinations to head back to bed for a few, I dragged myself up and got ready. And surprisingly, I was more alert than normal. I'll be gd'ed. The thing works.

Well, so, I'm keeping sleepwatch on the bedstand for the weekend, but other things I have planned include more gyming including my weights training meeting with my personal trainer (bleh), reading Book Thief, cleaning my woebegone apartment, heading to the indie cinema, and going out for a "few scoops" (beer, that is) with some friends. Fun times, n'est pas?

Oh, gym. Yes, I have to tell you. I was stopped short by a harsh realization yesterday at the gym. The realization can be best expressed in an equation:

A + B = C

where
A = smell an average man gives off while lifting weights

B = a European disdain for use of deoderant
C = funkiest weight room ever



It's........so sick. So, so sick. As I passed into the weight room last night, I was fairly toppled by the stench. It was knock-em-down funky. Bugh. Buh. Ugh. Uh.

So, stay clean this weekend. Use deoderant. Work out. Drink. Watch movies. In general, be merry.
