155 is the new 135. Today I was able to get 155 up ten times with proper form on my first set. That's the weight I was stuck under last week. I only hit 6 on set 2, but that's serious progress. I think this confirms that I need to keep my bench work to only 1 or 2 days a week. Still, this is a long time w/o an injury and another step closer to benching 225 (once).

I was walking home a distance behind a girl with long straight platinum blond hair. I couldn't tell you if she was 20 or 40 from the distance, but when I saw her stop on the sidewalk and pick up a discarded can...I thought she was hot.

I saw you from across a crowded room gym, but I was on the "upper deck" and didn't want to make a scene...

Hey, I'm stuck at Gold's from 4:30 to 6 today. I did weights yesterday...what the heck should I do to kill that much time?

Aw...you should have said hi! I look for you sometimes, but I worry that I look like some sort of stalker/vulture perusing the people on machines. Why do we act like, why do we act like...why do we act like machines!?

Stuck? Now I'm sad - I was thinking of going to the gym again today before class but I chose running around Iwo Jima instead. What to do...well you can always start cardio, do uh...something else, then return to cardio later. Perhaps there are weights thingys you didn't do, muscle groups that don't hurt today that you can tackle. There is always abs work in the corner, or if you're there at 4:30 the aerobics room is usually empty so you could have the sort-of-privacy the room offers for abs work and light weights.

Then again there is always reading a city paper outside and checking out all the interesting looking art students...
