Preacher Curl: 30 lbs.
Straight Arm Cable Pulldown: 45 lbs.
Wide Grip Lat Pulldown: 60 lbs.
Seated Row: 60 lbs.
One of the treadmills (my favorite!) is out at the resident's center, and there are a lot of people wanting to use the one remaining. I figure I would let them use it and try again tomorrow and (hopefully) Saturday.
There is a new poem, "Drone," on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
writerrabbit. Please stop by and tell me what you think!
Thank you all so much for all of your birthday wishes. :) I got quite a few of them over LiveJournal and text and e-mail, and I'm in the process of trying to respond to all of them. You guys rock, and I appreciate all of the good thoughts. It really does mean a lot to me.
Yesterdaytoob and I helped andreal celebrate his birthday at the Melting Pot. mut and I had briefly considered holding our dinner there, but quickly scrapped the idea once we saw the expense. There's no way we could ask people to pay that much on such short notice! (Though this is precisely what Andreal did, and we were delighted to, so no worries there.)
This was my first time having fondue, and I have to say it was a singularly lovely experience. We had a brilliant three cheese fondue for appetizers, a 'fondue feast', which was essentially a sampler of all the meats the restaurant was most proud of, and Smores chocolate fondue for dessert. Some of the food was so good you just had to laugh out loud, it's that ridiculous.
I got a deluxe onyx edition Scrabble board (thanksharlkyn!) and a signed copy of Fables: The March of the Wooden Soldiers (thanks mut!!), and a chocolate cake from the gang at work. I'm hoping that we can invite a friend or two to help me break in the Scrabble board some time this weekend.
For now, though, I think I will watch Derailed, drink some wine, and cuddle with my dragon.
