I'm all over the place right now. I have nothing pressing that is a concern with my training or progress and everything is going quite well but ... a bit mundane. Instead, I will just whine and complain a little bit this week.

I am curious how the person that scheduled the World Series knew my workout schedule for the week and somehow was able to schedule almost all of the games on days I workout? NOT COOL. The only game I didn't have to tape and watch at 2am (when I should have been working) was the game on Sunday night during the Cowboys game. Now, I'm no diehard football fan but ... scheduling Game 5 on Sunday night at 6pm Mountain Time? Damn.

Schedule for this week? I don't train today (Monday) so I hope they schedule Game 6 tonight. NOPE. I train Tuesday and Wednesday so ... guess when Game 6 and Game 7 is? You would be correct. *sigh* So, now I have to go to the gym, avoid every TV in the place to not see the score and not go anywhere near social media until I can get home and watch the taped version at midnight or so. Last time I added a 3 hour extension to the taping so I wouldn't miss a potential extra inning situation and the extension didn't add for some reason. Can you imagine? If I could just train earlier in the day that would be awesomer. Yes, I said awesomer.

I know I said it last week but I will say it again: I hate training on the weekends. I am training on Saturdays right now to have more time to get more work done on Mondays without having to rush to the gym after not finishing everything I need to get done on the first day of the week. It is AWESOME on Monday but by Saturday - when it is unseasonably warm and beautiful here - it blows. The weekends are for family and friends with the exception of a bit of client work mid-day Saturdays so that everyone is set for the weekend and the following week. I work my ass off all week so that I can spend the weekends off the computer and with family and friends as much as possible. I MIGHT train Saturdays through November due to Thanksgiving but that is going to be about the extent of it. It will be back to M-F very soon.

Halloween candy. I have eaten more Heath Bars in 2 days than I eat in 365. I am miserable and I feel like a dog that has eaten too much chocolate because it doesn't sit well with me. I don't eat it because it is awesome (though it does taste good); I eat it because there is so much of it and it is just SITTING THERE waiting to be eaten.

Happy Halloween! Go Cubs!!
