way too tired

yippee

1. Went to the gym on Tuesday morning, and I'm planning on going this morning as well. Thursday and Friday look like they're going to be in my gym schedule too. I'm really trying my hardest to get in shape.
   
2. Went to dinner with Amy and Cathy on Tuesday night. We went to Applebee's in Hayward. I had part of the spinach/artichoke dip appetizer, a house salad, and a teriyaki chicken rice bowl. I was pretty full by the time my entree showed up so I packed it up and I'll eat a bit here at work. Maybe I'll eat the rest for dinner this evening.
   

ugh

1. As you read on my previous blog entry, an aquaintance of mine passed away over the weekend. His viewing is on Saturday. I wasn't close to him, but Amy knew him well.. and he hung out at my house a few times, and stopped by my Halloween party last year. I'm going to go pay my respects. Also it wouldn't be right to go out having fun with friends when it's a friend's viewing. I think you understand, right?
   
2. More depressing news. One of the dancers from Cathy's bellydance troupe died over the weekend as well. Cathy's really not having a good week. Well, apparently God needed a few good recruits and picked em both in the last 3 days. *sigh*
   
3. I feel really exhausted today. I only slept 4 hours on Saturday night, 4 hours during the day on Monday, and 5 hours on Tuesday. That plus my 30-40 min workouts and pushing my dad around Walmart in a wheelchair pooped me out. I think I may take a power nap here at work. I want to hit the gym after work this morning so I need so kind of rest. I won't get tons of rest today since Dad has a doctor appointment in the early afternoon and I have to do groceries with Michelle, getting back in time to see Criminal Minds tonight. They say stress causes an excess in the body chemical Cortisol, which makes belly fat. Now do you understand why I still have the buddha belly? Don't ask me for medical citations from websites... look it up yourself on Google.. LOL
