Thoughts:
This wasn’t the most amazing workout ever, but I’m happy that I got it in first thing this morning.  I should have done arms as well, but maybe it will happen later on tonight (after drinks with an old coworker, during which I’m going to try to limit myself to one drink).  I wanted to have enough time to make and eat breakfast, which was really good!  I had an egg white omelet with some vegetables, and a small piece of rye bread toast with smart balance.  Bonus – I was able to successfully keep the omelet together.  I rewarded myself for working out this morning with a gigantic coffee with soy milk.  I remember why it’s so worth working out in the morning, I feel so good afterwards!  I really want to try to make this a routine for myself – gym in the morning, making and eating breakfast, and then getting ready; ideally in a non-rushed fashion.  I can dream, can’t I?  I had all the lights out and tried to go to sleep at 11:15, but I don’t think I actually fell asleep until 1.  Sleep fail.

On a personal note, because that’s what I sometimes do on SW – the guy that I’m now going to refer to as my fake ex-boyfriend (After 2 dates, we became “exclusive” and then had this ridiculous “boyfriend/girlfriend” title and everything was moving so fast.  On  our 4th date, he jokingly named our future children.  On our 5th date he wondered if we might have run out of things to talk about.  And THEN in a moment of complete annoyance and really, bitchiness, I told him that while we were being honest, said boyfriend/girlfriend title made me nauseous.) called last night because we’re “friends” now.  Moving to friends and slowing things down completely after all of that is a little hard, although we did have dinner as friends last week.  So then he asked me what my weekend plans are (I thought he was going to ask me to hang out) only to tell me he’s going to Miami for the weekend.  I’m actually really surprised he would want to talk me to after that comment, but it made for a motivated workout today.
