Sparkdiet: Day 9

A friend of mine pointed out that if I couldn't get through stage 1, I probably shouldn't move on to stage 2. So I'm trying stage one again.

Goals: Home packed/made lunch 5/7 days this week
Exercise at least ten minutes 5/7 days this week
Write in my blog 5/7 days this week.

So far, so good.


Tonight my roommate and I needed to go get groceries. No big. But she had a flat tire. So we got the spare put on. Ok. The gas light came on, so we stopped at the gas station. Decided to put some oil in her car because it was really, really low. As in, almost none. But we couldn't get the cap off. This gentleman in the car next to us offered to help, so he tried... and he couldn't get the gas cap off either.

Eventually, I called my friend Nathan. He's probably the strongest guy I know. I told him to bring pliers. He showed up, got the oil cap off. We got some gas. Then the donut was almost flat. And Citgo doesn't have an air pump, so we went to a different gas station. I suggested we go to Valle's for groceries, since they are so close. We showed up at 9:09, and V's closes at 9:00.

It was a really long trip, and it culminated in me eating almost an entire pint of ice cream. Which wasn't as satisfying as it should have been. Sad day.

On a different note... I'm really, REALLY sore from the Shred workout yesterday. It's an accurate description. I feel as though someone has indeed taken a cheese grater to my leg muscles and shredded them. I still worked out today, though, which I was pretty proud of.

Until tomorrow, my friends.
