Friday, September 7

Does it get better than Fridays?

Really and truly.  I love Fridays.  All the potential of the weekend ahead, people are pretty chilled out at work, sometimes traffic is lighter.  It is all good.

In other good news, The Post Lifers was a finalist for best horror/comedy at Dragon*con in Atlanta on the weekend.  We didn't go, but it's another feather in their cap and Mr. Lina is quite happy. 

I also had the BEST passport experience ever.  My passport expired last November, so if I want to go to New Orleans in October, I needed to renew it.  There is an office close to one of my clients office, like a block up the street.  When I got my passport 6 years ago, I walked up with my paperwork and pictures, got a number and the security staff thought it might be 2 hours before my number was called, maybe 3.  All in all, last time, it actually was well over 3 hours and I went back to work in between getting my number and being served.  I expected the same this year.  Not so.  Two people ahead of me to get the paperworked pre-checked, got my number and there were 9 people ahead of me.  Seriously I was in and out in half an hour.  A very high five for the passport office.

Day two of the couch to 5k program went pretty well yesterday.  I will be happy when my thighs are used to this because they are rather unhappy at the moment.  Mr. Lina does run faster than me but I just let him go ahead and catch up on the walk cycles.  It does feel good to do it together.

One week to seeing my fertility doctor.  Those weeks went pretty fast, didn't they?

  1. I'm pretty excited that Friday is finally here too, because it means I don't have to share my two favorite men with anyone else for a couple of days. I'm selfish like that. ;-)

    Now if only it were so fast to get a driver's license renewed.....

    1. I've been pretty selfish myself. We haven't seen anyone but each other this weekend and it's been great.

  2. For your muscle soreness try making a whey protein drink with some glutamine powder asap after you are done exercising. Speeds the healing of your muscles and therefore they don't hurt as bad. Glutamine isn't cheap, but when you say ouch every time you move cause it hurts so much, it feels like a bargain. 8-)

    1. Thanks for the tip. Yesterday's run went much better and I'm feeling pretty good today. But Monday we step it up, we'll see how that goes.

  3. Fridays are great. Especially when it is my Friday off.
    I did the couch to 5K to start running. Great program. Keep it up!
