Water Running
5 minute warm up
6 by 5 minutes hard with 1 minute east between reps
5 minute cool down
Back in the pool again, although not a run still good to clear the cobwebs and start moving again after a slack couple of days.
As is usual for a long weekend today was pretty slack, besides the pool run I was just generally laying about the place reading and thinking about doing the house work. Because I am back on the anti-inflams I have felt a little nauseous today, but I get used to them pretty quickly.
Poor Little Rich Girl
Good God, what a carry on. Paris is in jail, Paris is out of Jail under house arrest, Paris is in Jail again, the media surrounding this has been mad. Sure she is a stupid little bimbo famous for, well, not very much at all, just being really, but this almost made me feel sorry for her, almost.
Why? Well she needs to be accountable for herself, grow and and learn to take some personal responsibility, but what’s a girl to do when she has been cosseted and spoilt her entire life? I blame the parents really, it is obvious she has been brought up with a false sense of entitlement.
Still, it’s a little Faustian I suppose, they make a deal with the devil for love, fame and adulation, but it’s not so nice having all those flash bulbs popping off in your face when it all turns to poo is it?
But enough already, our old mates in the press are once again circling like great whites around a bloodied corpse, all thrashing around fighting each other to tear strips. Sure these “celebs” play right into it, but only because the press are there to lap it all up and feed it to us all in nice digestible chunks in trashy weekly rags. I despise it all, it sickens me, takes us right back to the Colosseum in Rome. They say us Australians have a bad case of tall poppy syndrome, I put it to you that the Americans are no better in that regard, they love a good fall from grace more than just about anything.
Total tangent…..
…..I am worried I swear too much. It is not at all ladylike and I hate to sound common, I certainly wasn’t brought up to swear, but it is just something I do. Poor Jo having to listen to my effing and blinding in the pool, I keep trying to change it to flipping this and fecking that, but it’s not the same. As my mother used to tell me, people only swear when they lack the imagination to come up with something better, I really need to be more imaginative, it will have to be a midyear new years resolution.
Another tangent….
…..there is a football oval next to my pool, guess who will probably spend a bit of time running around that oval before a swim in the next couple of weeks
Now time to give the shins a good working over.
