An off-day for the Twins.
October 20, 2012: Unfamiliar
Last night marked the first time in years that I was told I hadn't gotten a job I applied for. Holy crap, I'd forgotten how damaging that feeling is, even though it was stressed to me that I was the second choice and that they value the hell out of me. A few compliments aren't quite the 50% bump in pay I was hoping for, but at least I feel needed.

We also want to wish a very happy birthday to Greek House and to freealonzo’s mother.

In my final workout I did 20 minutes on the treadmill at 3.6 mph and 3.5 incline (any faster and I get into that funky gait somewhere between walking and running). Then I did 20 minutes on the elliptical machine at a resistance level of 5, averaging 115 watts and 8 METs over the 20 minutes. Continue reading WGOM Fitness: Oct. 19, 2012 – Cost Effective
