PreProgrammed To Workout

I did the preprogrammed workout again today. This time I made through 20 minutes of walking at 3.2 mph at a 15% incline. Wow. I'm glad it's Friday.

I seem to be making more friends at the gym. Of course, it may be because I've taken the time to stop and talk to people. I'm not a snob. I'm just introspective.

I have my girls all weekend. I'm picking them up from school tonight, and then they'll be with me until Sunday. I'm really looking forward to seeing them—as long as they don't dig any more holes in my backyard.

The stock market is continuing to tank. This is a major economic threat. You know. When the hijackers flew those planes into the World Trade Center—our financial center—this is exactly what they intended. As a country we're so naive that we think if we're bigger and stronger than everyone else, we'll always come out on top. But maybe rather than being the biggest bully, we could use some brains. For the most part, since 9/11, the stock market has been on a downward spiral. They don't have to beat us through military actions. They can just hit us in the pocketbook. The Surge is a fairy tale. This isn't a war on terrorism. It's an economic war. And we aren't winning. They are. Wake up people.

OK. That was my political soapbox for today. It's just something I had to say. And you thought this was a weight loss journal. I should change the name, huh?

OK. Next Wednesday I'm entering into a "get healthy and fit" contract with JD
