Thanks guys.
We don't have ushers that wander around unfortunately. Would have killed for one. My bruise, though light in color is surprisingly large! I did a number to myself giving that 'woman' a piece of my mind!
We do have some theatres that offer reserved seating, but I'm not sure if it's only for new movies or what the deal is with that. I have done that twice (for 2 of the hunger game movies), but usually have chosen close to the top and near the middle as that is 'ideal seating' as far as viewing goes, but maybe I should choose the outer rows which have fewer seats, and an aisle seat to hopefully give me the highest chance of not being near talkers. It's ridiculous that it has to come to that though.
I'm not sure what is all in the Napa Cabbage salad as I have personally never made it, I've only had it when my mom has made it. It has ramen noodles in it. It's very good and I'm not a big salad person, it's a bit sweet.
I do remember you le_squish. Nice to see you back!
A big jump up to 159.8 this morning on the scales. Not a total shock as I wasn't sure the 157 weights would hold, but a hair disappointing. It's also the start of TOM which can funk up the scales a bit. Though I am 'very happy' (if one CAN be happy about TOM) to get it now rather than during my horse show as it's much easier to deal with when you are not on the go for 16 hours a day wearing white or beige tight pants.
Work was decent. My work computer died on Friday afternoon so it was a bit funky dealing without it. Thankfully I should have my new one going tomorrow.
Got to the barn just as they fed the horses their hay, which always sucks because my horse is 3rd on the totem pole. This means that when I bring him inside and work with him, the other horses are still munching on their hay. An hour later when I turn my horse back out, the other horses are finishing up their hay then go over and run my horse off of his hay. If I get to the barn before they feed I just ask them to leave all the horses hay out of the pasture and I just feed them all when I am done. So I decided to be quicker I would lunge Elis instead of ride. I was really worried that he would have been cold as the temperatures were down to -8 and snowing/wet and even though I had his heavy winter blanket on with a neck cover, he is completely clipped short now (in preparation for the show) so has no help from his coat. Thankfully he was still warm enough, though when I turn him back out I did add an extra liner under his winter blanket since it would be getting colder at night. He gave me some lovely work today on the lunge. He had been being a bit tense on the lunge for the last few weeks, when normally he's really good and relaxed, but it seems he's finally coming back to his normal self. Turned him back out and threw a few extra flakes of hay in to the field just to make sure he got enough food.
REALLY wasn't feeling like working out today. I spend a lot of brain power thinking about the movie theatre incident today, which I need to let go of. (It's the other people's problem (and my friend's problem) not mine) which I think was a bit draining mentally. Plus TOM, and I was just feeling tired and wanting to sit around and do nothing. I especially didn't want to do my circuit training which is what I really SHOULD be doing today, especially since I didn't even do it once last week.
I decided to compromise to make it easier to convince myself to do SOMETHING. I decided instead of having to go down to the gym and do something, and instead of needing to do 45-60 mins of something, I would stay in my apartment and do a Jillian Michael's Ripped in 30 workout. About 35 mins, in a similar workout format to my tough mudder circuit training.
I could definitely tell my heart wasn't in it. I was surprised for how much working out I've been doing how hard I found some of it, but I also think some stuff felt harder just cause I really had no gumption. I made it through and finished it, but it certainly wouldn't be classified as a 'good' workout, especially in the sense of feeling good about it.
Lunch: Sour Cream Pork Chop
Supper: Pizza muffins (my sodium was sky high today haha)
Snacks: Mini Eggs, mini cream eggs, white cheddar popcorn
Total cals: 1479
I really need to add in some veggies or salads. I would love to make that napa cabbage salad, but salad ingredients go bad so quickly I have a hard time buying that stuff. I need to do something veggie like though, and trade it with some of my snack calories.
I also need to stop writing novels on here. No one wants to read a massive block of text when trying to make it through and comment on 10 different people's diaries everyday!
