So I don’t know about you but I dread Monday’s. I actually count down on Sundays until I go to bed, knowing that as soon as I close my eyes it will be Monday morning. However, this morning and today was a whole different story. I don’t know if it was the 75-degree weather, the sun or that fact that I was bouncing off the wall from natural adrenaline, but Monday was off the hook. My workout with JC kicked my ass, but I never felt better. We started off with my normal warm up and then moved right to the arms, biceps and back. To refresh all your memories, I have NO upper body strength. NONE! But slowly, I am getting stronger and gaining more control in my arms when lifting weights. I have even noticed that my shoulders have gotten broader and then other day I was mesmerized in the mirror at the sight of biceps and muscles on my arm. That’s right, I stared in the mirror and gazed at the beauty that I call myself. Please, don’t judge me. You all know you do the same thing. Well, maybe not. But hey, give a guy a break. If I am going to bust my ass and sweat the fat off I might as well take the time to enjoy the sight of it. So after my session with JC I showered and then headed to work. I walked out of the gym and it was like my vitamin D levels exploded and my body fully charged before hitting the PATH train. I was actually jamming on my iPod while I was on the PATH and I am pretty sure that I was singing out load. That’s right, I was signing. I was waiting for the new directions to jump on the PATH train and start a musical number about Vitamin D and then I would join in and become an honorary member. Yes folks, I have let you all in on a little secret; I am a GLEEK and proud of it. You have to give it to Ryan Murphy. He has reintroduced the American public to the beauty of singing and dancing and now, slowly but surely, it is becoming cool to be a member of the glee club, show choir and theatre club! The revolution has begun! Ok, so I digress. Back to the Monday work day.
At the office, we opened the windows, pulled up the blinds and enjoyed the sunshine on our pale white bodies! It actually made working more pleasant. Now don’t get me wrong, I was still extremely busy with casting the season finale of Law and Order: SVU and The Big C, but I was enjoying the day and not stuck in the Monday blues! Before I knew it, the clock read 7:30pm and it was time to head home. It was still light out, still warm and I was going home to cook myself a nice home cooked meal, enjoy some good TV before calling it a night. I just wish that everyday could be like that. How amazing would that be? But I guess that is why some people are depressed in the winter and vibrant in the summer. We just need some good old vitamin D. It doesn’t hurt that I am also staying active at the gym and eating right. Who knew what I was missing? I sure didn’t. Well I am almost to the half way mark of the challenge and I think I am doing pretty damn good! How about all of you? Any milestones or goals that you have met?
Well tomorrow is another day. Let’s hope that it is just as fun as today. Till tomorrow.
