Oh, and 134.2, even after having a Costco hot dog yesterday (bun and all!). I figured it into my FitDay totals, so I was a tad high in fat but OK otherwise. For a workout, I tested out a tape for the basement group (Walk With George, or something like that, with George Foreman and Petra someone).

This morning I'm going to run, and this afternoon I'd like to do some upper-body work.

Spoke a little too soon. Another long e-mail trying to convince me he knows things he doesn't know and is interested in things he's not interested in, and professing his love (that he knew from the minute he saw my profile, he says). And saying he's going to call one more time to leave me a funny message. Why he thinks I'll find anything from him funny at this point, I don't understand. I didn't find him funny BEFORE.

Anyway, he asked me to just let him know that I received the tickets. I e-mailed, "I received the tickets. Please do NOT contact me again." Partly in case I need any kind of proof later on, if I need a restraining order or anything like that.

No concert in the garden tonight, I think. It's supposed to rain. Again.

[DogMa]

And I know I shouldn't have e-mailed back, even just to confirm that I got the tickets. He's already e-mailed me again. I haven't responded, and of course I won't. No matter what. In fact, I'm blocking his e-mail addresses.

BTW, on a completely different subject because I've devoted MORE than enough energy to this ... despite what the scale has been saying, my size-4 Gloria Vanderbilt capris still fit perfectly (yes, she sizes things pretty generously). I'm off to pick up vitamins and some groceries, plus spend my $40 in Kohls Cash that I got last week.

Then I'm heading home, before the next wave of storms hits. The prof said he's not feeling well and can't go tonight (but the concert was pretty much out of the question anyway). Don't know if it's true or an excuse. Should I stake out his house and start calling him every 10 minutes to tell him I love him?

lol glad you have a good outlook on things

As someone who has had to get a RO against an X - yes, please save every email, IM, and if you can voicemail/answering machine messages. And of course document all instances of him showing up unexpected. I didn't have to use any of it in court - too bad because I would have loved to play the 60+ messages on my answering machine outloud in court for the judge - crazy messages. You may not ever have to use it but it is easier to have it all compiled ahead of time just in case. Stupid X agreed to a 3 years RO because it was what I wanted - he didn't realize the impact of a RO. Oddly enough all the calls and emails stopped the minute he was served by the sherrif at his work, but I still went through with it.

[DogMa]

Yeah, with his security-clearance issues, I suspect just the threat of the cops showing up would be enough to keep him away.

So far, nothing since the e-mails this morning. I've got my fingers crossed.

The good news is it's been really nice to get back to my normal routine. I've already done two workouts today, plus made my breakfasts and veggies for the week, so I can kick back and relax tonight. And my proteins are lined up for the week, too. I'm thinking of trying to mix things up a little and do two nights of chicken, two of beef, two of fish, and one free choice (OK, yeah, ribs or other bbq of some sort, most of the time) so I don't get into such a rut (which I tend to do). Found some yummy frozen, marinated tilapia at Costco that I had last night. Cooks up either from thawed or frozen, so I can just pull it out last-minute and make it if I want to.

134.6, which is fine after a somewhat free day yesterday (nothing awful, but ribs plus a multitude of low-carb tortillas for some reason).

Ran this morning. Doing a tape this afternoon.

[DogMa]

Hey, yet another guy contacted me today. We actually IM'd briefly (through the site) and exchanged phone numbers. Seems pretty nice. Can write a whole sentence and even spell the words correctly. Is a self-described news junkie. Seemed funny in his messages and profile. (I'm crediting Biki's work on that Mojo photo for the sudden interest.)

Only drawback is he's in Dallas, but what the heck. He says he's not too far from American Airlines Center, and it doesn't take long to get there from my place, if there isn't traffic.

I'll keep ya posted. I know you guys are getting bored with the summer hiatus.

[bikipatra]

Let me know if any more of my help is needed is speeding this process along.

[j0j0ruca]

If he is willing to travel - then go for it. I use to drive out to see the guy I was seeing prior to the BF I have now. The current BF drives to me - can't tell you how nice it is that he does the driving. I felt bad at first but figured if he was willing to drive out then it was fine. Of course now we make it into long weekends together with him just staying at my place.

[DogMa]

Yeah, when I think about it, JDG lives that far, too. It just doesn't seem as far when it's the other direction. But if he's willing to drive, or meet partway, what the heck. And maybe he's willing to go out at night.

The prof was reluctant to go the concert because it would get out too late (10-ish) and he said he likes to keep the same schedule on the weekends (bed by 10 or 10:30). Ummm, so no shows or evening movies or anything?

Then again, I haven't heard from him since he said he was sick yesterday morning, so maybe it was just an excuse. His loss, right?

[j0j0ruca]

Totally his loss. He wasn't my type to start with but then again It isn't me

[DogMa]

134.6, with some sandbox problems. So no big deal.

Did half my morning workout because I didn't get much sleep last night plus I was running late this morning (and I did some lifting last night, which means three workouts in one day). But I didn't want to skip it entirely. Will do the tape this afternoon.

YAY, DUCKS!!!!

I went out with a nice Jewish doctor (I was 21 he was 45)and it was the same thing. He didn't want to be cutting on someone without a good 8 hours.

[DogMa]

Well, I'd kind of want that in a surgeon.

But this guy's a college administrator.
