vicarzI'm happy - killing the urge to write.
Since coming home I've been indulging in a minor diablo 3 addiction. Not sure why I like putting this puzzle together over and over but I do. I had a great weekend with the gf, who is showing her patient side as I ramble and fail to plan things. She's more a schedule events type, I'm the laze around type and motivate after work is done. We made the time to lounge a lot, failed at some planning things mostly due to me, and as always ate and drank out a bunch.
I'm a bit tame about eating out as my last credit card bill was huge. A grand of it was for the vanity in the house, but the rest was not - holidays or not, that's got to stop. Food and booze can be had at home.
The house had a sad lack of progress and I met with the contractor and Scott about it yesterday. I have no set move-in date. The key is getting the heat on, which despite prior projections is not yet done. The kitchen cabinets haven't arrived from the manufacturer yet, but they are a usual 6 week turn-around time so they're about due (not sure why I heard they'd be in earlier). I know a lot more about my hvac systems now.
I'm a little proud I kept the gym up and diet reasonable on this past work trip. Sat I confirmed my squat max is 345, though unlike last time I was able to do that weight for 2 or 3 singles. I'm probably too satisfied with my slow progress and am trying to do DL on squat day and squats on DL day too, but not 8 sets of 3 or sets of 10. I OP 145 for 4 on the federal employee only holiday MiLK, but that still only counts as a max 155. Tomorrow we see if I get a new DL max and the outlook is bright.
I have tons to do at work but the time to do it. I'm still enjoying work, but pushing myself to apply for that much more lucrative FDIC job even if I don't really want it.
I'm a bit slack in the rest of my life and probably need to focus a bit more. Tax time...oh and DC sent me the notice of the refund they meant to pay me but still have not done. They say these last 2 months or so are delays due to the need to compute interest. So they not only haven't paid me because they can't do math and/or don't use free easily available online calculators, but have now all but billed me for the money they admit I didn't get.
As you see I'm lazy about writing but not feeling guilty. I definitely have been cashing in on mental vacation time.
