The Sober 165 - 3 Week Mark
Friday, October 10th, 2008
Yesterday marked the 3 week point of this 75 day binge on sobriety and all things shitty for me. I’m tired. I’m restless. And I’m in need of some rest and actual relaxation.
A week ago I went for a massage. And as good as it was it was more painful than anything. My back is fucked up for reasons X, Y, and Z. And my neck is fucked up for reasons A, B, and C. So while I would have loved to been able to enjoy the sounds of whales singing ballads and the wind rustling leaves, I was a little more in the mode of cringing and thinking constantly - “This is for the better”. After all was said and done, I was relieved. But not relaxed.
I had my first opportunity to go out with the wife and have a couple of drinks. Sorry - nothing interesting to tell you here. We chilled out, played some bar games, ate and went home. Even given the opportunity, I chose not to have a beer.
I’ve been keeping up with my diet - with the small exception of some pizza today at Remix. It’s been good to me, and very fucking refreshing. But I gotta be honest with you, the green tea is starting to make me sick. I need alternative tea choices and I need them now. Let me know if you’ve got ideas.
As for my weight? No real significant change. I’m at a consistent fluctuation between 172 and 175 and cant seem to break into the 60’s yet. Maybe some crunches and cardio would help this. I may even start to do some Yoga or something to get me a little more trimmed than these billion push ups are. But like I said - I’m fucking tired. And doing Yoga is fucking hard.
Right now I am terribly exhausted. I just got off the phone with my little bro in LA and I don’t think I’m gonna be able to make it out there for the Pacquiao fight. :’( Just rest assured, the payoff will be worth it.
Well that’s all for now. Sorry about the blandness of this post. If you didn’t already know - I’m tired.
Love&Respect as usual.
be.
