i went yesterday to the gym. i saw CGG. i avoided making eye contact with him walking over to where the locker room is. he was talking with some guy amongst the machines. i get into the locker room and am facing the lockers and i get a pat on the shoulder “Hey Scott, working out again?” he went to the back of the locker room to get something, and then on his way back, stops and goes “you still rehabbing that shoulder?” “yeah” “cool, i rehabbed mine earlier”. that was it, he was gone. the awkward conversation was shorter than last time, but no less creepy. i went and worked out, and noticed he had left, so i’m thinking he gets done with work about 5:30, so i guess the key is to go after that time. i don’t plan on changing my schedule or anything, but i will remember for next time.

today was supposed to be a day i go running. i ended up not going, so i feel a little lazy, but i want to get to bed early tonight (BEFORE 10 pm!), so i figured it best not to go running 4 miles at 8:30. however, i did get some great deals on stuff on my way home. i went shopping for a new set of headphones to use when i go run, because the $8 pair i bought at Walmart have been falling out of my ears. apparently if i go on a long enough run, my ear sweats a certain way that makes the right headphone fall out. i googled some better headphones and found people recommending these funky green ones. i stopped by Target on the way home (i had stayed late at work, so it was like 6:30 when i got there). they didn’t have the green ones, and the ones they did have i wasn’t really into. i decided to take a walk over to Circuit City. before i left Target, i noticed the Lego Star Wars game for Wii was on clearance for $20. i was tempted, but i was on a mission. at CC i saw one of my friends from work so i talked to her about property taxes (we live in the same neighborhood) and work issues. after talking with her, i found my way to the headphones. they were a bit hard to find, and of course when you actually need an employee in this case, they are all somewhere else. anyway, i found the ones i saw at Target that i wasn’t too jazzed about, and they were $4 cheaper. nice! as i’m walking away, i look for any alternatives, and i saw the green ones! they were on clearance for $22! SCORE! i bought them. then i went back over to Target and bought the Star Wars game. i got home about 8:00 thus not going to go run. i’ll be back at it Thursday morning though (no work Thursday because of MRI and then RA ROAD TRIP 2008! [more on that later])
