gym and job and this and that

So a week ago we decided to join the gym around the corner from us. T has been missing the gym since her power skank house gym in the city was closed down, bankrupt, went under...whatever and she was only working out twice a week with her trainer. As for me...I've been laying low for the past 19 months since moving to the states and even a free gym access at the school didn't help me so we thought it would be a good idea to workout together. Now T is a hardcore bad ass when it comes to working out. She does not F around...she printed out some circuit workouts and off we went on Saturday morning at 8am. I was so done that I was only able to finish 4 of the 5 circuits (each consisted of 3 different exercises) before feeling nauseated and having to go rest and catch my breath at the locker room. I hadn't eaten anything beforehand so I was also hungry and physically tired afterwards. We went to Dunkin Donuts, got some breakfast, took a shower and relaxed for the rest of the day. We did go to Target to get a George Foreman grill because we wanna make healthier food and we've been talking about it for awhile. We haven't tried it yet because the fridge is full of leftover but soon...but back to my gym story!

I was walking like a duck yesterday and my ass, thighs and chest were hurting! We didn't go to the gym on Sunday even though we were thinking about that. Chasing after Carly at T's moms yesterday was plenty of exercise. Carly is walking now so you need to be careful cuz if you leave her alone for one second, she's up the stairs so fast! On our way home we were talking about going to the gym this morning at 5:30 as T usually does in the mornings...I guess she was thinking I was full of it when I said I'd be there. Her alarm goes off, she goes to the bathroom and when she comes out I'm half way in my gym clothes...She's like OM, I wasn't thinking you were coming or I would have woken you up! So at 5 friggin forty am we're out of the house! we rode the bike 5 minutes for a warm up and did our 5 circuits. Boy is my ass hurting right now! It took us about an hour, we came back home, I made my coffee, fed the cats and T got ready for going to work. I dunno how she does it but she's s SUPERWOMAN! The dedication...Wow! After she was out of the door I finished watching Monk, took a shower, ate some breakfast and was out of the door at 9:10. I am gonna try to do this every Monday with her because the workout is so much more intense when you do it with someone else than by yourself. We are gonna try to workout 2-3 times a week together and the rest alone. I might go 4 times a week and when I go alone maybe do have cardio, half circuit or just cardio...since we joined a week ago on Monday (the first day of actual workout) I've been there 5 times now in 8 days! Are you impressed or what??? Tomorrow morning though...I'm sleeping in!

Moving on...About an hour ago my phone rang and now that I'm looking for a job I can't turn down phone calls... This is somewhat how the conversation went:

Woman: hello, is this Jenni
J: Yes
W: I'm calling about the resume you posted on Monster. Are you currently employed?
J: I'm graduating in May so I have 1 more month to go
W: From where are you graduating? High School or College?
J: From college with a Master's Degree
W: With what degree?
J: Environmental Management
W: Oh, that's a big one...So you don't have any work experience?
J: Actually I do and I'm currently working at the school also.
W: Oh, filing and Stuff?
J: Among other things
W: Oh ok...well let me tell you something about the company...we are something something company, and we provide supplemental insurance coverage for blah blah blah........
J: Actually I'm an international student and can only work on my major field of study so I cannot work for an insurance company.
W: oh, ok...bye
J: bye

Yeah...INSURANCE COMPANY!!! not that there's anything wrong with insurance company's calling but a) I cannot work for them, that's the law and b) before you call me READ MY RESUME!!! I mean seriously! I posted my resume so that I could find a job BUT I also spent hours on doing it so the LEAST you could do before you call me is to READ it and get to know my qualifications! ARGH!

But I'm over it now...

Gotta go back to work! Later
