don't call me romo.

"In a back-and-forth game that ultimately hinged on a botched 19-yard field goal in which Tony Romo bobbled the hold, the Seahawks survived 21-20 on Saturday night to send Dallas into disarray" From ESPN

I watched in horror as Tony Romo huddled in shame on the bench. I wanted to go over and tell him, shit, Cowboy, we've all screwed up before.

But then I realized, we haven't all 'bobbled the snap that would have led to the game winning field goal in front of 60,000 people.'

Ouch.

I went skiing today. (No kidding, says someone, somewhere, sarcastically).

The road to the mountain was closed due to howling winds. So around Noon, went up w/ one of the coaches, and did intervals. Well first we skied oh, 5 k, then we did 4, 4 min intervals in fairly heavy ungroomed snow.

So it was inelegant, but sweet. I love intervals.

Friday was an easy classic ski. IN the pitch black. And my head lamp sucks. (too cloudy for moon to help). It was awesome.

Thursday was a 1.25 hour skate ski in crummy grooming, in a huge storm. Also, awesome.

Tommorrow, 2 hour classic ski, with 3 x 3 minute intervals (monday is rest, er... except for all that teaching stuff)... but it'll depend on the weather...

Ate like a champ... waffles/fruit/yogurt... little later, more of same... skied... pear, pinapple juice, baked potatoes, meat, cheese, carrots, hummus, salad, shopped, got my new vest (broke the zipper on last one, nice factory warranty, thanks desente

oh wait... then i ait more. black beans, rice, and kale greens in a broth... yummm...

Tommorrow, if i don't ski, i'll grade the other 32 sets of essays (each set is 5 essays), (18 done), and er... eat.

lots.

too lazy to do a real post today, ate a nice breakfast, went for a 45 minute ski, then 4 x 4 minute intervals, with 3 minutes recovery... might do a short run this afernoon, just to turn 'wm over and start re training the running systems for the fall (haven't done any running since before thanksgiving, except for, you know, that i hustle)... i'll lift starting tommorrow, probably ease into it w/ a pm lift, then, m/w/f cleans/squats/lat pull/bench...

breakfast, waffles,fruit (3-4 servings),maple syrup
lunch, chips and fresh home made salsa. then, salsa was so good, and chips so crummy, i just ate a bowl of salsa, er, let's call it gazpacho w/ some crumbled chips...
then, turkey/salami/cheddar on wheat. time to chill for an hour or two...
