I need to figure out what time I’m getting up in the morning to go to the outreach thing. I’m also debating whether or not to go by work before I go downtown in the morning because I could use to get a tablecloth and maybe a few of the book stands so that I can prop up some of the books on my table at the Charlotte History Museum. At the same time, that means getting up earlier so I can leave earlier and of course I’m not a big fan of that.

 

It would be a good idea to do that though since it would make a good impression and I’d like to be a good representative for the library. It doesn’t really seem right not to go by and grab those things. Also, it probably wouldn’t be a bad idea to grab the library iPad instead of taking my personal one, though that feels like more responsibility than I really want.

 

So if I’m going to get to everything on time, I guess I could leave here at 10 am. That would put me at the library just after 10:30 am and then from there the place isn’t too far. Man, I’m so annoyed that I didn’t think of the tablecloth to begin with since that is going to mean going in earlier tomorrow. I’m just going to have to get over it.

 

I went to the gym today and spent an hour there doing some weight/strength training. I’ve had people give me routines before and I’ve always ended up being way to sore, like into the “injury” territory pain. I don’t mind a little pain/soreness. I kind of like a vague level of soreness actually. But every time I’ve tried to follow someone else’s directions for my body, I’ve ended up with limited range of motion for days afterwards. I’m not sure that I shouldn’t have done just a little bit more today or used weights that were just a little bit heavier here and there, but I’m trying to find the balance between pushing myself and punishing myself, for lack of a better way to say it. I want to be sore tomorrow, but I don’t want to be near immobile. I want to get stronger, not tear something vital. Unfortunately, since exercise was always something I avoided, I don’t have the experience to know what I should feel like while I’m exercising to get the “strengthening me” but not “injuring me” balance going. I guess that’s going to take practice. I feel good today. I felt a little ill at the gym, but I haven’t figured out the food beforehand stuff either. I think I probably hadn’t had enough to eat even though eating too much doesn’t work well either.

 

Hopefully I won’t give up. That’s going to be the most important part of all this, really.

 

Ah well, we’ll see how I feel tomorrow and I’ll have a better idea from there.

I was going to talk about seeing "Black Panther" too, but I need to get myself ready for tomorrow and then head to bed.
