Proper Recovery.

I’m oddly calm. I’m not sure why.

There was a presentation I was supposed to give today. It’s the second one for my speech class. The one where you’re supposed to use a visual aid. Maybe it was going on the first day, but I didn’t know what to do. I couldn’t pick a topic. I really wasn’t sure how to organize it. I feel completely inept at explaining things to a group of people. I’m fine if I know the person and what they know or don’t know. Then you can base what you’re saying off that person. But a general audience? I don’t know.

I really don’t want to retake the course, so I showed up today. He counts attendence, and you have to show up for everybody else’s presentations, anyway. I figured maybe I’d get inspired by the way other people do it. The idea of showing up drunk is sounding better and better. I’d be calm as hell. Plus you can bet my voice would project to the back of the room!

When Erik and Liz absconded me the other night, I noticed a 24 hour gym. A light bulb went off. I’ve been thinking i should work at a gym, but I wouldn’t want to work at the gym I currently lift at. I have a policy of never working at a place you actually enjoy. That’s why I worked at Panera – I was completely indifferent to their food prior to working there. Eating their food was awesome when I worked there, but if I were to ever go there again, I’d probably dick with the cashiers and order something incredibly complicated. Ha ha. I rule.

The week and a half away from the gym screwed with my eating. I have zero desire to eat. Or maybe I forgot how little desire I’ve had to eat. Eating every three to four hours certainly isn’t a matter of hunger, it’s a matter of dedication and will. I’m getting a little more stressed, so I’m thinking I’ll start using whey in a pinch to keep my protein intake up. While gaining muscle mass would be nice, I’m more concerned with getting enough food to facilitate proper recovery between workouts.

If I did work at a 24 hour gym, I think I’d like the stupidly early morning shift. I’m weird like that. I’d like going to bed at 7 PM and getting up at 2 AM. It would be strangely fun. Better than sleeping in the morning. I think Paige has gotten in my head. I keep thinking I won’t be hired because of my hair. Yeah. That’s all her. I’ve seen the people that work various places. All I really need to do is trim my goatee. I don’t think I’ll shave it off completely, because I like keeping it around so it’s obvious I’M A MAN. Ha ha. Unless you can see my nutsac, I look like a chick from behind.

I don’t know. I’m always fascinated by what I can and can not do. I don’t even know myself what will happen!
