Evening of 12-4-6

As I’ve been saying, Thanksgiving completely relaxed me. And now I have no motivation to do anything. This is bad. Very bad. Very. Very. Very bad.

I don’t work well long-term. I work well short-term. It’s hard to create artificial pressure to do things. Soon enough, I’ll find myself scrambling.

NaNoWriMo is over. …Now what do I do? I don’t know, I’m kind of bored. I’m staying up way too late. I’ll be tired at 8 PM, and stay up until 2 AM. That’s just not necessary. It’s never easy to simply GOTO bed early. I don’t know.

My previous strategy of notecarding for A&P based on the online quizzes didn’t seem to be working. I’ve been avoiding it. So I decided to try something different: Notecard everything in the book, the cross-reference with his powerpoints. Leave no stone unturned. What can I say, when I do things, I do them. Except I got up around 10 AM, and didn’t bother lifting until THREE. What the hell. I didn’t have enough time in the library afterwards to get much time. I got SOME notecarded, but…

Tomorrow may be an ambitious Tuesday. May. But, sleep is important. I’ll get up an hour later than usual (push it to 8 AM), as I don’t have class until 1 PM. I can afford it, basically. Because I won’t have much stamina if I don’t get enough sleep. I.. I don’t know. I still have spanish homework to do, as usual. I can foresee staying late in the student center. Library closes at 9:30 or something. Class ends around 9 PM. Man, I miss staying to 1 AM at the library at Rutgers. That was awesome. I’ll want to get that shit out of the way tomorrow night, rather than for Wednesday morning.

And I have a paper due in a week. Funny, wasn’t it due in a couple weeks just a .. couple weeks ago? Gah. I can’t do multiple things at once, it just fucks with me. Not like this. Spanish is easy because it’s small chunks that I can handle. but not giant tasks. I just need to study for this A&P exam, and THEN I need to study for the final.

Tomorrow’s my last Leg Day of Death. I intend to do some PR testing on Friday and Saturday because .. Because! (Okay, I frequent a forum where there’s other nerdy scrawny bastards. We challenge each other.) I want to move heavy inanimate objects! I’m not too concerned with how much my bench as increased. Benching is for girls! : D I’m going to play around with weighted pull-ups, push presses, and then bent-over row. Saturday, I’ll try to squat 225. That’s my goal. Okay, maybe 245, if I can swing it. We’ll see. 225 will be sufficient for competing with a complete online stranger who weighs less than me. Ha ha. I don’t want to exhaust myself. I just want to get that out of the way because my old PR is horridly outdated.

My current deadlift PR is 245 for a double. Now I can rep 225 like it’s my bitch, so I KNOW I have way more than 245. The mark to beat is 265. I think I can swing 275. Maybe. I’m way stronger than I was in June. All I need is 275. Naturally if I get it, I’ll try for 285. I don’t think I’ll crack 300, as that’ll be an insane jump in one day. But, I’m rather motivated. More motivated than all the other crap I have to do. To the think the current chapters in A&P are muscle cells, and the nervous system. Very fascinating stuff! ..Which I don’t feel like memorizing right now!

In other words, I intend to whip out my balls Friday and Saturday, and shake them around. Ha ha. Kind of exciting, actually. Well, at least I have something to look forward to.

I should sleep, right? Ah, I want to superset milk with cottage cheese first. I want to get my weight up over 157.6 so my average is over 157.
