hkellickI just got out of Josh's "Americana" concert. For those who dun know, for the most part, I can't stand Josh's concerts. It isn't that I'm not interested in what he does, but that waiting through what all the other choruses sing to listen to Josh can be boring and/or terribly dull. Especially since they tend to sing songs no one has ever heard of and that I don't care for.
Today's concert was a bit of an exception, but not a spectacular moment in any case.
There were songs I knew (Battle Hymn of the Republic, Chapel of Love, Blowing in the Wind).. some were done well... others... not really.
To my ears, they really did no justice to Amazing Grace. They were offtune for most of the song...
To make matters less fun, the damn woman beyond me spent most of the first twenty minutes loudly whispering to her husband (despite the fact that the kids were SINGING) and then kept putting her god damned high hells up my back (well.. she was, I think, swinging and moving them around on my jacket, but i felt them on my back through the whole god damned concert.) I really wanted to turn around and say, very loudly "DO YOU MIND LADY?!?! I'm TRYING to watch the concert!"
It doesn't help that I think I slept wrong on my shoulders because my shoulders/upper back ache! It ached enough I couldn't jog today :/
I suspect tommorow may be the no gym day.
I dunno why, but I feel riddled with gym injuries. It started Wednesday.. I was lifting weights and I felt a.. pain in my right shoulder blade. So I tried to work around it. Friday and Saturday I didn't work out, of course, but Sunday.. I still felt the pain, though a little dull. Monday was back and legs day, and I thought i had a really good workout, but now my back ache (at least it's only an ache and not PAIN, though!)
Add that to the agitation of something my mom said (and she's not wrong). She asked me how much I'd lost lately. I said "not much" so she says "You're maintaining?"
And I AM Maintaining. I'm NOT really losing weight. I can't explain it.. but I haven't lost weight in two weeks. It's POSSIBLE that I *AM* losing fat slowly and am gaining the same weight of muscle, but my overall weight isn't REALLY going down :/
I wanna be 245, dammit.. I wanna be able to say "Lookie me! I'm NOT OBESE anymore!"
Spring's coming.. maybe spring means I'll start moving more and not losing days at a time due to illness. (Fairly, I've lost too much time this past two months... between being sick and busy due to conventions and stuff...)
I know my eating isn't perfect.. I'm still eating sweets and, probably, too much fat, but I don't think my eating is it, per se, so much as... I dunno. I dunno why I'm not really losing weight.
It was, otherwise, a fairly quiet and productive day. I got a couple of books, started working on my Groundwater group project and I got time online to read people's LJ and hang out (if only briefly) on Chaotic.
Just agitated.
*sigh*
I did have something interesting happen at the gym.
I was getting dressed into my gym clothes and listening, vaguely, to a couple of people across the room talking. One of the guys (the younger of the two) leave and the older guy turns to me and starts talking to me. Out of nowhere he says "Let me guess. You're a Law Student."
"Um... no" I reply "What makes you say that?"
"Oh, you seem like you have a serious side."
*blink*
I dunno, *I* found the exchange amusing.
Well, I don't really have anything I want/need to post about, atm, so I'll just post.
Hasta, folksies.
