I am wretched, sluggish, headached and tired. I'm not moving fast b/c of the wind, calories and lack of desire to do so.
I have no backpack today and I cannot summon the will to even listen to any music. Yesterday, lunch was catered by my employer and I overate to a disgusting point. I did manage to hit the gym last nite, though, working my shoulders, tris, one round with the punching bag and a 5k, and felt a little better. Today, I can still feel the effects of the gorging and I feel gross.
Today marks the official end of the Iraq war and, in reality, it won't end. You think that place isn't going to revert to something just as bad, if not, worse? It's great that the Hussein reign is over, but you know there's something truly awful just around the bend.
Maybe a half-mile south of the meatpacking district I passed Christy Turlington running the other way. Sure, she's hot, but she looked like a normal woman jogging in the running outfit that my wife sports. I only recognized her, though, b/c she was on CNN Heroes on Sunday. Her organization supports mothers in Bali who don't have proper healthcare.
I will finish In Our Time today or tomorrow. I'm at the last 2 stories, which is a two-parter.
Finished watching "The Apostle" last nite with Robert Duvall. Excellent movie. Love the movies about the journey -- and the man/woman who leaves everything behind to rebuild themselves inside and out.
I'm being catered again by the events group today for lunch and I will be more responsible.
Thank you for reading.
