Lifting for 7-8-9

Uhh, hung out with Erik, Liz, Trent and Matt last night. Matt’s growing on us. He’s quiet, but witty. I like that. We played some Super Mario Bros. Oh yes. We started a running commentary on how the game makes absolutely no sense. Not that modern games make sense (Drakengard), but things like flames underwater and hopping turtles or only being able to smash bricks after you’ve had a mushroom… Yeah. Someone was high when they made Super Mario Bros. Good stuff. We got stuck on 8-2 for a little bit, but we got through. Kind of makes me want to play Super Mario Bros 2. I’ve beaten it on Super Mario All-Stars, but it’s freaking hard as hell.

Squat:
5 @ 95, 135 lbs
5, 4, 3 @ 175 lbs (+5 lbs)

BB Bench:
5 @ 65, 95 lbs
4, 3, 3 @ 125 lbs (+5 lbs)

BB Row:
4, 4, 4 @ 125 lbs (+5 lbs)

Felt a little weaker today. I’ll keep the weights next workout. It’s either because I drank too much on Saturday, that I missed my monday workout, or both. No biggie.

I got the brilliant idea of buying a bigger bed. If Candi and I could sleep in my room, it would mean we wouldn’t be bothered in the morning. Plus when we move out, we’d have a bed. And. Ha ha, I’d have a bigger bed. Who doesn’t like having a bigger bed?

This has given me motivation to continue to clean my room out. I know, shit accumulates, but. There used to be three boxes of stuff under my bed. Now I think there’s only one. Just progressively trying to have less and less “stuff”. I could stand to put the dozens of CDs on my dresser in the bottom crate. I’m afraid of how many CDs I have. I used to be able to fit them in one crate. My closet doesn’t have much stuff in it, but…

I have a box, still sealed from when we moved back in 2002, of Nintendo Powers volumes 1-100. I’m such a packrat. Why keep something like that? I almost want to post it on eBay and see if there’s some other loser that would be interested such things. I realize you can look on GameFAQs to look stuff up, but it’s the freaking original Nintendo Powers. Though, the Super Mario Bros 3 guide stays with me. Ha ha. Completely torn up by this point, but completely useful.

I should either donate or get rid of most of my childhood books. I’d swear I did that once before, but I seriously don’t need them. Or, at the very least, box them and make them more compact and easier to transport. Could grab a box from work for them…

Candi’s going to have a dinner party on Sunday the 19th. At least, that’s the date we have so far. I’m just assuming she’s timing this so her parents are out of the house. Some parents are parties are okay. Hers are simply not.

Reminds me, I want that picture of me she took on her iPhone.
