Skipped weigh in Wednesday because of work. I did weigh this morning however and am up a pound which really gets my goat. I have no one to blame but myself. Stupid, delicious beer. I had unofficially weighed on Saturday and I was at 181 even and honestly thought today I would perhaps, just mayyyybbbeeee dip my toe into the warm soothing water that is the 170s. Nope. I was shocked to see a gain, but then remembered my Sunday afternoon beerfest. I've also been a little more liberal than usual with the nuts as well, but I find it so difficult to believe any of this would add up to an entire pound. I realize that there are many variables at play and one pound is actually nothing, just a quirk, but I feel if I look at it in that light then every week that a new pound is added instead of subtracted I'll rationalize it that way and in no time I'll be back to where I started.
Exercise has been almost non-existant as well. My so called part-time job this week is beyond full time. I really shouldn't even be here doing this but honestly I have no enthusiasm whatsoever to get up and do anything with another 10 hour day of tourists and springbreakers in my very near future. Another fabulous thing about living in Florida (I hope the sarcasm meters are going off) is that if you (me) are employed on a boat, the company who owns said boat, does not have to pay overtime. How nuts is that??? Stupid loopholes. Luckily my schedule for next week is a little more in line with what I want to work. I never wanted to work 10 hour days, but that's the shortest day possible unless your called in to cover a specific trip. Friday I have a 14+ hour day this week and again on Tuesday of next week. Blah!!!
Hopefully the schedule for next week doesn't change too much. A guy who is even newer than me walked off the job yesterday afternoon which is for the best really. He thought sleeping on the job was acceptable behavior and when he was approached about it from the 1st mate he said he didn't need this shit and took off. Anyone want a job on a tour boat? We've got an opening and you'd be doing me a favor.
HAPPY ST PATRICK'S DAY!!!
Beware of green beer
Slainte!
PS I've been reading journals while I'm at work on my iPhone and wish I could comment, but am too slow on that little keyboard, but I'm with you, my buddies and others, in spirit. Carry on!
