Welp. I'm in Big D again. I'll be sitting in a hotel conference room for the next two days trying to ignore training for Accounts Payable implementation in Oracle. I'm two hours into this and the droning echoing in the back of my brain is becoming unbearable. I'll never understand why drinking on this kind of job is unacceptable. I've been working out where possible. Pulled 495 a few days ago. Haven't pulled over five since I pulled 510 a couple of months ago. Benched 355 for a horrible single on Saturday. My head hasn't been in it since the holidays set in a couple month ago, but I'm getting there. As an encouraging reminder to myself, I go through this every year at the end of the year. Typically, the first few months of the year are when I make my largest gains. I think because by then I'm completely tired of being tired and hungover. At least I got one goal last year. I pulled over 500 for the first time. I still have to get my squat up there and my bench is still nowhere near the 400 mark. Honestly, I'll be happy to put another 20lbs on my bench this year. I'd love to keep driving my squat and DL to 600 each. I just hope I can stay focused on it this year. Looks like skiing is going to be a fantasy I'll have to pocket for another season. That sucks, but I guess that's life at the moment. I'm really trying to focus on getting out of debt at the moment. As it turns out, this is very difficult when you continue spending money. Fortunately, lifting costs virtually nothing. All things considered, this has the makings of a good year. I'm looking forward to it. I'm planning to get back up on the competition platform soon. There's really no better motivation that getting your ass kicked publicly.
I didn't realize how horrible it could be to be in accounting. My ears just started bleeding from the mere thought of doing what these people do for a career. I just caught the end of a lengthy discussion on how to code trash disposal from the offices in the accounts payable module. WTF. and I thought my job was boring.

No matter how bad it is, it could always be worse. Accountants are a different breed--on the order of DNA separation dysfunction in the zygote. They're the folks that would'a' been cops if they'd only had the balls.
