Be flexible when the boat comes in

In my continuing efforts to achieve My Perfect Squat, I have: More hip-opening exercises! I started incorporating these movements yesterday with the exception of Super Frog, which I can't due to lack of weight plates at home. Those first ones, in the runner's lunge? Those are intense. I can't get even close to having my elbows on the ground. Yet.

Even though I have a short day at the office today, I still felt like this about coming to work.



The faculty administrators are taking the staff (i.e. those of us without tenured teaching positions) out for drinks at 3:00. FUCK YEAH.



For dinner I shall attempt dining at a restaurant for the first time since New Year's Day. We're headed to the Burger Stand because I figure a Kobe Beef Burger on a bed of greens should be marginally okay. Just no salad dressings (even their oil & vinegar is made with soybean oil) or fries (unless their duck fat fries are 100% duck fat, no canola, etc.).

And tomorrow: VACATION DAY!

Topping Friday's agenda is packing away my winter clothes finally. It's unbelievable that it was necessary to keep my warm clothes out for this long. Granted, I haven't been layering, but still. Sheesh.

Seasoned iPod users: Is there a way to shuffle a playlist on an iPod classic? I can only get songs to play in the order I added them to the playlist--which means albums are always clumped together. Not optimal for a playlist, IMO. Is there any way to mix them up without dragging everything around by hand?

I love the "burger on greens" option. Be sure to ask if they are using any pickled veggies in the salad today, and tell them to leave them off your Kobe. Since it's not a purist's Kobe, I'd just get a Classic without the cheese, really, why pay for the truffle butter if you aren't going to eat it?

Good gods, I think I can also finally put away my wooley scarves and neckwarmers. YAY.

The burger was small, the greens miniscule, and the whole experience was unsatisfying. I shan't be going back. =(

Well, *that's* disappointing! I hate it when a good place goes downhill.
At least you won't miss it.

Oh, they're still delicious, but without all the goodies (and a sadly small amount of greens), she just didn't have much to eat. Next time, I shall ask for a LOT of salad under the burger.

It used to be so much that I could pick through it for the best bits. Wah! At least I will know to ask next time, too.
