The Pain/Pleasure Threshold

I can't get over how nice of a day it was! Between my most
amazing workout ever and the sunshine, I felt almost
medicated - only actually happy!

Gen, Sam, Cyrus, Kiki, Keenan and I had coffee for the
first time in forever this morning. Gen, the kids and I
have coffee a few times a month, but it's rare that the
men folk join us. Neither Sam nor Snookums really likes
having coffee with us, although Sam at least tries to join
the conversation.

I mailed Snookie another love box before heading to the
gym. Usually I send Snookums junk food and candy, but last
week he sent me an email saying he wanted to get into
shape, too. I think he looks fine, but the Navy wants him
to be 220 and he's 245. He has to be within standards when
it comes time to reenlist (later this year), so that's not
going to work. He's a man. All he has to do is think about
losing weight and he'll lose it. As long as he doesn't
look sickly-thin like he did in his boot camp pictures,
then I'm behind him 100% :)

I had THE BEST workout today. The most satisfying workout
I've had in a very long time. Lately I've been
experiencing a great deal of sexual frustration. I bought
a vibrator from Castle's, but for some reason I'm
incapable of making it work for me. Intense vibration is
not a normal sexual sensation. Unless you only have sex
with toys. I've discovered that there's a fine line
between pain and pleasure. This line is present during sex
and during exercise, so if I can get myself right to that
point (the pain/pleasure threshold), my workout can be
almost as satisfying as good sex. Minus and orgasm, my
body feels the same afterwards. Weak-kneed, jelly-legged
and very loose. I love it :) For the next three months
exercise will have to do.

The rest of the day was typical Monday. Rush home from the
gym, do some laundry, feed the little ones, get Annie to
focus on her homework for an hour, rush her to Girl
Scouts, do the grocery shopping, pick Annie up, get them
home, fed, ready for bed and asleep. Now I'm
procrastinating. I need to get the kitchen and living room
picked up and I still have two loads of laundry to put
away (sunny days make it really hard to do laundry in the
windowless basement and I tried to stay up to do it last
night, but I fell asleep on the couch). I have to get it
done tonight, or I won't get it done at all. I've got a
long workweek ahead of me.

I have to work from 3-10pm tomorrow and our district
manager is coming. I'm feeling a little stressed about it.
Probably because of Tamara. She called around 7:45pm to
tell me to take out my nose ring (technically it's against
our dress code, but I wear it anyway). She sounded
stressed and it kind of rubbed off on me. My availability
doesn't start until 4pm. I was wondering why I was
scheduled at 3pm. Now I know why and I don't know if I
should be flattered or irritated. I'm a tenured associate
and I guess it makes sense to have your best working when
corporate comes, but I don't need Tamara's stress in my
life. I'm trying to get rid of my own. Oh well, I'll deal.
Ciao.
