or—“It was more than just depression”— Yes I’m afraid that this morning all legs were up in the air, or more colloquially…”tits up”…”kicked the bucket’…”gone to meet his maker” …“deader than a doornail”…etc.
Kind of a cop-out I know, this repeat of the same title, but the moviemakers have been getting away with it for years. The only thing I promise you is that the sequel will be short.
I had a great morning at work today. I had the best nights sleep I have had in a while. I actually slept straight through until 4 am which is almost unheard of for me. I can’t explain it other than perhaps the frame of mind I went to bed in. I was up and had breakfast by 7am and on my way to the office, and as mentioned had a successful morning. So I knocked off just after noon with the intention of getting a workout in. There is a 3km block around the industrial area which I thought I could probably do 3 times, since I hadn’t run for several days. Well, I was disappointed. I did one lap and there was nothing left in the tank. I can’t blame the climate (it was only 39 C) as I have run successfully in this heat before, and the elevation is just a lie that Roo made up to justify her “affected my brain” insult the other day. Hermosillo is at the same elevation as St Thomas. I’m gonna try not to over analyze it, but I do feel inclined to try to understand it. This seems to happen often. I’ll believe I’m making good progress, and then along comes a day like today. My shoulders and neck get extremely tight, my heart rate goes steadily up, and it feels like I weigh 250 lbs again. There has to be some rationale. I’m thinking there must be experts out there (exercise physiologists or something) that can help me find the answer. Maybe it has something to do with my heart muscle or something weird. I know that when I wear my heart rate monitor and run accordingly I have more success sustaining a longer run. Maybe I’m gonna ask Dr Yoo (no not Who, Yoo!…I’m done with movie reference) or one of the other doctors that I have to see next week. Maybe they can get me hooked up with someone at the sports medicine clinic or something. Meanwhile If anyone has a brain wave(Cory) or even a stupid idea(Cory again) or is just interested in fabricating something(yes you guessed it…Cory), I would love to hear it…..sorrrrrry Cory….The devil made me do it!
I wish to dedicate day 10(wow how did that happen already) to my sister Elly who is more forgiving than me.

I am happy that you're back again here in this beautiful Mexico. I've read your blog entirely and man you are loved.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.
I also agree you should write a book. Think I told you, did I?
Cheers Pedro!
So in other words the grasshopper suffered and now your guilt from allowing this to happen, because of your Catholic upbringing, is just another reason for you to ruminate.
Pete, I understand how you feel about Cory especially on the fabricating aspect. She really doesn't lie she just makes things up.
Love unconditionally
Roo
xxoo
allright!!! just knowing I'm thought of is enough. And I'm proud my brain still works well enough to make things up! And OH MY GOD I'm very happy you decided not to OVER ANALYSE the way your body decide to react! Let me see. you were only able to do one lap of your projected 3 in heat you haven't run in FOR A VERY LONG TIME, after swimming for 2 days straight when you haven't done that in a VERY LONG TIME, with a body that has been through a bit of change and still tends to DEHYDRATE VERY QUICKLY because you SWEAT LIKE A PIG and haven't fed it properly for a VERY LONG TIME! Yes I think its important to call in the experts and find out what the trouble could be! And whatever you do, don't decide to respect your body for its insistence on an adjustment period and go try a treadmill or some weight work in an air conditioned gym for the first half of your workout and finish it with ONE lap just becsue that's what your body feels it can do right now! I say NO TO THAT!! Instead you should RUMINATE about it some more and call in all the experts to NOT OVER ANALYSE the situation. WE MUST HAVE ANSWERS! Are you out of your fuckin mind??? I know we're ragging on the catholic thing but do you think it would be possible to give this one horrendous failure to God, let him sort it out and just start beating yourself up again tomorrow? And Roo I love you too, you BITCH!!
