i separated this post into 2 so it shows up as separate workouts

i may be behind on the workout bandwagon this week, but i have a solid excuse: two weeks straight of visitors from california staying in my bedroom! luckily, my older sister, kelly, is in the process of shedding pounds, so we have woken up early two days already, headed to the gym, and worked it.

Day-2, Martini's are not power drinks

OK so I went out swith some friends from work last night and a few Martini's and mussles later i was home by midnight. Per normal convention both i and my roomate who already ahs a Crunch membership were up after 4am.
