half asleep

i just had a 10hr work day. gosh that's almost twice as long as i've slept for most days of the week. needless to say things are a little fuzzy at the moment. i've been working some crazy hrs lately because the other teachers are clearing what's left of their leave, but hey i won't complain cos the extra hours means more dough to spend in sri lanka.

i've also been trying to go to the gym. made it only twice this week, and plan to go on sunday as well. trying to get in the minimum three sessions.the knee has been sore so am taking things a bit easy. did 20 min on the bike followed by another 20 min walking at increasing inclines on the treadmill. no running for a while till the knee gets a bit better, which translates to not being pain-free but to where i can walk n work out wothout too much discomfort. my MRI scan is sheduled for next yr, which is like ages away. i sometimes feel like getting it checked privately, but i know of someone who paid over 400 bucks for an injury to one of her shoulder ligaments, and since i aint got no sugar daddy that is definitely not an option. so public healthcare'll have to suffice. maybe i'll be able to get the scan done while in sri lanka.hmmm. a definite possibility.

food has been so so. a few pigging out moments. had a half bowl of udon, a piece of murtabak and some kueh for dinner today. oink. am actually thinking maybe a few controlled cheat meals may help me break the current plateau i seem to be in. i know it worked the last two times.

spent some time with nadz, azz and sharm yesterday. it was like old times. haven't laughed so hard in the longest time. nothing beats the company of good friends, unless of course it includes great dessert. and the banana crumble served with caramelized bananas, custard and ice cream was near orgasmic, so it was top notch.

tomorrow is saturday but i've got work in the morning. arrgh. talk abt depressing. hope ur weekend beats mine...
