An Irishman is sitting at the end of a bar. He sees a lamp at the end of the table. He walks down to it and rubs it. Out pops a genie. It says, "I will give you three wishes."
The man thinks awhile. Finally he says, "I want a beer that never is empty."
With that, the genie makes a poof sound and on the bar is a bottle of beer. The Irishman starts drinking it and right before it is gone, it starts to refill. The genie asks about his next two wishes.
The man says, "I want two more of these."

So anyway, here's how my monday/bench press workout went.
Regular bench press
bar x 10
135 x 10
2 board press
225 x 6
315 x 5
355 x 2
3 board press
385 x 3
4 board press
405 x 5 Felt lighter than I was expecting. I was hoping for one or possibly two, but ended up completely failing at 5. It's the little things that keep me going.

i feel ya. Those li'l things, it is. i went in to the climbgym hoy for to get a last hard boulder session in 'fore a comp on fri. Absolutely demoralizing. It turns out there's a statistical correlation between my recovery time and having replaced my nightly glucosamine supp with 6-12 oz. of brandy. Also i whacked my elbow, where the common tendon of the ant. forearm bundle inserts, on a hold, and it still hurts to contract. So now i just finished a mayonaise salad, and'm considering plugging in a lipful while i get about huffing sundry hydrocarbons. Healthy times. And i think presently i'm with yer Irishman there: i'd see if i could finish the second and third before the first refilled. That's pure sport, that is.
I have a tendancy to be at my most unhealthy right before a comp. Of course, I typically finish second to last. Still though, do something healthy. Brandy and Skoal are both poison and won't make you feel any better. And running doesn't cause a hangover.
Let us know when you guys get of the hospital, eh?
Looks like today's the day Katja cometh home. They've already pulled her pic line, and steph's waitiing on the discharge order. Prayers please. (They hafta measure the pic line to make sure they got it all out of her. For my part, i'm hoping they got it all.)
