you know what I really miss about working out? the endorphins! nothing better than after a good workout getting your arms, chest, legs, back, shoulders, or butt all pumped up and walking out of there exhausted but in a really good bloodpumping way. man I miss that. I'm not huge or anything, a good midsized frame lean and 6'1, average overall. but I've gone down from over 170 to near 160... yikes. I quite hitting weights some time after spring break. did cardio all summer, swims, biking, running at the gym every other day etc.. then fall break I quite any cardio at gym. blah blah...
well now I'm back at it. last night was up there running and then some light work outs to get me going again. saw the little bro of the half Mex/Irish guy that looks like the Rock only sort of that I mentioned before. well anyway, he had grown huge arms since I saw him last and I told him so. ha he said, yeah he's been hitting it hard lately. he asked about how my school job was going etc..
anyway, so tonight it's cold out, I'm tired from working all day job then night class (I picked up a THursday night class for the next month) and I was driving home thinking, man remember how great it felt getting up to the gym every day or every other and going to it. when running on the treadmill was a warm up to a WORK OUT!!
Dan is going to get disciplined again and get back to the ROUTINE!! yes sir! so watch out next spring, going to be a winter of workouts. oh man am I going to be sore the next couple weeks getting back to it.. ughhhhh. but also yay! :P
hope everyone is having a good week. day job is going well for me,and night classes also good. I sort of had some small talk in the office at the night job with the secretary who posted a video on a social network about Christianity and how they should burn the bibles and not worship them. I jsut mentioned it as interesting and how I disagreed, made some more small talk and left to my adjunct prof office. she emailed me later saying i'd made her uncomfortable and we should discuss it other than the office etc... she did end the note with a happy face, but still my heart sank and began beating and my face turned read and I felt really embarassed. thing is I hate to make ANYONE feel uncomfortable, last thing I'd want to do. so I emailed her and said very sorry and of course I'll be better and keep my mouth shut in the office etc.... I really do love seeing her when I go into the office before classes to check my box. She a really sweet dear dear person. boo! anyway, I think we'll move on from this, I jsut hate being an adult and still having those instances where you're thinking, OH MAN, what did I say and What am I doing?!? those times are so FEWER as you grow up and get some self control. I was sort of questioning my social skills filter on the drive home . ha
SO!!! TONIGHT it's all about self control and discipline. WATCH MY MOUTH! and GET BACK TO THE GYM!!! cheers everyone.
ED:: we've since messaged and all is good, she said don't take it so hard, just let's not get into deep discussions while she's there in the office but perhaps over coffee. we're both respectful and open to hearing each other's ideas discussion etc..

She told you how she feels, which made you respond to her. Unless you were offensive I think you should stick up for what you believe. The nice people are worried what others think and the opinionated people say what they want and then get "hurt" when others disagree.
Well, she should be more careful with putting her opinions out there, but she won't!!
i'm with drew. if she's gonna dish it out...burn Bibles?! then she damn well better learn to take it. if someone told me they wanted to burn Bibles i wouldn't tell them they made me uncomfortable, i'd tell them they were crazy, act a little crazy myself and scream something like "you're going to burn in hell bitch." hahahahaha! but then i'm a little more demonstrative than you are buddy. :)
cheers!
you are too hard on yourself Dan, she has the problem not you. and btw I'm 6'0 and 190 so I hate your fit self ha, ha

Always make friends with the secretaries on your job. Sometimes they have more influence over "the boss" than you might think.
Good idea to stay away from religion and politics in the workplace.
I agree with Drew and Rugbysex...stay away from any controversial topic in the workplace. (burning bibles??).
I'm an atheist, but I sure don't want to go out and burn bibles....talk about making someone feel uncomfortable...live and let live, baby....
so, men are only here to make sure women are "comfortable"? if she stayed at home sweeping her house
never interacting with men, she might be unfulfilled but at least she would be comfortable.
Anon @ 1:18, you make such a stupid comment.
This is not about women's rights, comfort, or exchanging ideas. Its about not pissing off a secretary, over a non-work related issue, when your a part time faculty member hoping to be offered a full time position.
On the other hand, if the secretary is working in an English department and posting videos advocating book burning; she might create an employment problem for herself.
