Two and a half weeks.

So I'm at the two and a half week mark.  Things have been pretty smooth sailing save for a few snags... all of which I'll try to quickly summarize.

First, went back home this weekend but not before I thought, hey I should get a nice designer beer, relax and have a little reward.  Yeah, designer beer turned into 5 drinks and a 4am bedtime.  I was having too much fun harassing people online with my buddy Shawn in Battle Pirates.

So I missed hockey this weekend, and when I get home I ended up having a nice lunch with the Mom's (belated bday) and again, had a few drinks and too much food.  Then on Sunday, too much food again although the roast beef sub I got from Royal Pizza was pretty much all I ate for the entire day.  I figured I might as well kill off the last beer I had in the fridge and had 3 sips and fell asleep on the couch watching the Dark Ages (History Channel).

I've recovered well from this weekend's mishaps, and had a pretty solid routine going this week although I have to admit the cooking is taking up way too much of my time.  I get home, work out, and then cook until 11pm.  To be more specific, I get home around 7... work out around 7:30 or 8... done at ~9 and then I eat my big meal and then do some dishes and cook food for the next day.  When it's all said and done, it's 11 freaking at night.  It's a little draining, but I'll just need to become more efficient at it.

I'm also on week 2 day 2 of Couch to 5k which I'll be doing tomorrow (Thursday) although the bottom of my leg right above my ankle is stiff as hell and is bothering me a bit.  I've been running on the front of my feet, instead of the heel to toe... but tomorrow maybe I'll try normal running.  I have normal running shoes, and my friend Carl suggested that the slope it has in it may be putting extra pressure on my joints.

P.S. I have a new showerhead, and it's the most amazing thing that's happened to me in a while.  It's like standing under concentrated rain, it's brilliant.  I don't need to lean into the showerhead anymore since it's above me, and this thing puts out a good amount of water.  So, so good.  Heading there now - highlight of the night.
