...and there is a reason I'm not working out today.

I was MCing a function last night which kept out of my bed till 3:00 this morning. I may have also had a few too many beer, not enough for a hangover, but enough to leave me just plain tired.

I had about four hours of sleep this morning and was really dragging my behind today. I felt much better by about 5:00 this afternoon and was all pumped and ready to get to the gym as I wasn't able to make the usual morning workout.

At 6:20 I pulled into the parking lot, scan my card for the back door to let me in (this is the usual, the back door is always locked but the front one is open during business hours). Now, keep in mind, the gym I go to and will be working at part time is small and caters to an executive sort of clientele, so it really shouldn't have surprised me when I walked in and the gym was dark, quiet and empty.

That quiet ended abruptly with the sound of alarms. A few phone calls later, the matter was cleared up and all was well.

On my way home I got to thinking it was probably a good thing I wasn't working out today. It's easier to explain to just a few why the alarm went off. Not so easy explaining why I have a big bruise on my forehead from an Olympic bar.

Tonight will be an off night and some rest. Tomorrow I'll be getting my CPR and work out in the evening.
