Now that the pool at the gym is back in order, I meant to get back to the gym tonight on the regular triathlon schedule (as opposed to last week’s jogging day, 2 weight training days, and 2 biking days), but I haven’t been feeling all that great. A combination of some very late (though […]
Now I am tired again. Man, I hate being sick. I need to be at work tomorrow; I’m thinking tonight will be better than last night cause of the drugs and the fact that I’ll be back on the pod in half an hour, but man. I hate being worn down. I deal enough with

We had a big meeting today at work because our health benefits will change Nov. 1st. I’d known this was coming since I signed with the company, so I was nervous and busy doing math and looking up tiered drugs and in-network providers and going through all the paperwork and thinking, wait a minute, this

Note to self: the next time I suffer from these yearly sinus infection/allergy things, I need to get the right drug hookup from Stephanie’s Old Man, who, of course, has the best lineup of allergy meds on the market. I can BREATHE AGAIN!
