It Hurts So Good

Went to Applebee's for lunch today. I wanted the appetizer trio with all kinds of badness on it (mmmm), but I resisted and ordered a sirloin with vegetables. Thirty minutes later, just before we were about to walk out, arrives the food; some cut of meat thing that looked and tasted nothing like a sirloin, and two raw stalks of broccoli. Seriously, it took them 30 minutes to make the worst tasting piece of meat ever? (And I don't know how you screw up raw broccoli, but they did).

On top of being slow to get food, it was slow to get the waiter's attention and get a check. My co-worker's salad was also kinda crappy, but edible. Since it was going on an hour and we had to get back to work for some meetings, she took care of the bills and I ran to get the only thing I knew I could get quickly and eat; a McDonald's cheeseburger. I couldn't really tell you what it tasted like I ate it so fast, but I do know that it made my stomach a bit blah later. Also, I regretted it after I realized our cafeteria was doing taco salads today, one of the only things I will eat from there.

Anyway, after consuming that crap for lunch, I dragged my sore butt to crossfit. I must admit, I debated going tomorrow instead, but if I'm going to make it into that red dress, I need to go as much as is healthy for adequate recovery. Right now that's 3 days a week, and I honestly wasn't THAT sore; I didn't need handicap stalls. :) So today's torture, er, WOD consisted of:

8 Hollow Body Holds (I just did the leg part, which was enough)
Then
1. 5x5 Ring Dips, rest 2 minutes then compete 1 set of failure (Failure set will be recorded)
      Here, I could do 3 at a time with a red band to assist, so I did 6 sets of 3
2. Max Unbroken Double Unders (3 attempts)
      I somehow managed to do one!! Just one and probably a fluke, but it was cool.
3. MAX Calorie Row in 6 minutes
     I got up to 73, which while second to last wasn't the least AND I was right on par with others who are in much better shape than I. They were getting 81/74/78

All in all, a good day. Have to drag myself out of bed for a 0500 or 0600 on Friday since I won't have time after work. But tomorrow, I'm sleeping in until 0700 :)
