DAY 6 0F 7

Workout: 60 minutes Stair Master
                30 Minutes  - New Precor machine. I am calling the Ellipti-stair

WORKOUT

Good workout after a day off. Not extremely hard but I stepped up the Stair Master a little. Shifted up the resistance every two minutes instead of every 3 minutes. Tried a new machine they have in the gym. It is sort of an eliptical and sort of a stairmaster. Can't say as I it was a great workout but it was a different workout. Good change of pace. Probably go back to the traditional eliptical where you can raise the elevation and the resistance. I like to treat the eliptical like a bike and I couldn't get the revolutions high enough. I like to be in the area of 180-190 per minute and I could only get this up to around 120. Plus I didn't sweat enough and that is really important when I evaluate a workout.

FOR GOOD OR BAD

I should be back in my old position at my current job by at the latest Tuesday but possibly tomorrow. I was demoted in the end of October and the person they brought  in to replace me was a disaster. So now I am back. Not sure if that is good or bad but I am going to learn from the past and do my best to make it a success this time. I am not saying that I couldn't have been a better employee/manager but I know that the guy they brought it was a joke, He is a nice enough guy but he has no clue to the business we have here in Las Vegas. He came from New Jersey and worked at 6 Flags over some hood in New Jersey. He just couldn't understand how different our environment is than the one he came from. It means more hours and more stress but it also means more money (that's important right now).


WEIRD DREAM # 2

I had another one of those weird dreams the other night. It started out that I had a pet monkey that I apparently got form some sort of a rescue foundation ( i have never wanted a monkey). After a while I came to the decision that I couldn't keep the monkey and I found a vet or a shelter to take it to (that's not the weird part). When I got to the vet they were examining the monkey and they asked me to pick it up and when I did I did it like I pick up the parrot Ruby that I work with (which is by the beak). When I went to pick her up by the beak it came off. I mean the whole top of her beak broke off and blood was spurting from the area. That's where the dream ended. Weird huh? I don't know what to make of that.


OBSERVATIONS


Two things I heard on the news this week got my attention

1. The US government invested in BLIMPS as a spy tool. Didn't the Hindenburg teach them anything. Plus, how damn secretive can a blimp be. I mean really they are huge. What is the foreigner going to think "Oh look it's a cute blimp flying over our encampment" . Very scary

2. The Pope said that condoms were okay to prevent Aids in cases like " when you're with a prostitute". Really prostitution is okay with the catholic church. Wow no wonder that religion is so fucked up.
