Exercise: A kind of crappy upper body workout. Never got on the elliptical machine because it was full. That should teach me to go work out at 6 p.m. Gotta get back on there Friday afternoon.

Here's the deal. I am kind of taking tonight off. Well, I did a few things for work, and I really don't feel like writing any more. So here's one quick story for you.

Apparently my problems with Subway are in the past. It seems that I have gone there so much that they actually know me now. If there is a new person working the vegetables, they are told instantly by the manager that they need to use a shitload of pickles and olives. I suspect they have an embarrassing nickname for me. Anyway, the guy I got today was pretty cool, even if he doesn't seem to be able to go without fucking something up. But at this point, I don't really care. I kinda fucked with him today and told him to put as many olives on as he could. I swear there were at least 200 olives on the fucker. I didn't really want that much, but what the hell, right?

So I guess there will be no more stories about how much I hate Subway sometimes. I love it, actually. Probably a little too much.

Some quick hit thoughts:

I am down to 317; lost a pound since Monday. So yeah, that's cool. That means 17 pounds in 21 days. This could get interesting.

Last night's South Park was fantastic. I expected a satisfying ending to Chef and I got exactly that. I think Trey Parker and Matt Stone are my heroes.

I can't stand working out in a really crowded area. There are too many meatheads and old ladies all in the same place; it is almost impossible to get the machines you want when you want them. I gotta stick to my afternoon routine. No more of this going after work bullshit.

I am going to try to get some new photos up as soon as possible. I kind of need a haircut, so I might do that first.

That's about it. I should be back Saturday morning, so if you want to make a weekend stop by, feel free.
