I get paid for this
I worked most of this weekend, well mostly I was on-call and I overall feel like I finally got rest. However,
spent hours Sat prepping a witness for a Monday deposition, getting an objection to the depo followed by an Order from the Judge overruling the objection, and drafting a settlement agreement on the same case while arguing over terms.
Stayed in and didn't even hit my club Sat.
More of that this Sun AM,
and got a ton of stupid things done - like finding out I had an extra batch of google stock I didn't even know about because I didn't factor in the stock split. I'm not sure if I'm happy to be that more liquidy or embarrassed I didn't know I had that. Then I hit the gym with my insane friend, and confirmed that I will never, ever, take time off again.
About my gym addiction - it's better than the alternative. All my pretty callouses were flaking after only a week of not-gym time. My back started to hurt - and if you didn't notice, I went fucking crazy. I made a t-shirt that says (f/b) Bacardi: cheaper than prozak. It's more true that the endorphins from working out keep me less symptomatic. But hitting the gym today - my body was stupid. I had trouble with form, I was weak, and I got all sorts of pings and aches for no good reason. I managed the workout but it seems the down week low weight work isn't something to blow off. Plus, the pain from my gym time sucked less than an aching back. So, hey working out sucks less than not working out. Good to know!
Returning from the gym, we swapped more settlement drafts & terms. I returned to work on the document; while working I got a call from KS. It was my witness from the deposition I set up for Monday - he was in the hospital! So the depo was off - but being another witness, who was coming out of retirement to testify just because he wanted to get the truth into the record (I call it patriotism, to country, job, or truth or all I don't know). He said well gosh, while he had surgery that meant the scheduled surgery which would prevent him attending the hearing, the reason for the depo, might be postponed - so he said if he could he'd attend the hearing! I can't make this stuff up.
But I feel less silly being a gov worker working the weekend.

Re: gym addiction, yeah. Yeah. I need some kind of addiction that doesn't get me too high. Wtf.
