We may have some bags of dirt. I'll have to look.

Anyways, Friday AM work out didn't happen. I got up bright and early...stood up out of bed and... Ahhhhh my legs! So sore. Back to playing this game again.

LOL, yep.

iron_worker · 05-27-2009, 05:05 PM

Well between laying tile at my mom's place to getting sick to being away every weekend... well I've really shit the bed at the gym. And thus I have put on a great deal of weight (the bad kind)... gah. I think I must set myself up on a real diet here... not whatever the hell it is that my mother makes.

P.S. living at home with your mother when you're an adult sucks. If I wasn't so hard up for a job I would be outta hur! In fact, I'm looking into other jobs currently.
