WTF Wednesday.....thought I knew better Thursday.......ffs TGIF

Having a private office is great… but sometimes it can feel a little too isolating. I love having my own space, but I also feel a bit trapped in here at times. I know the second I open my door, I’ll have people stopping by to chat, and there goes my productivity. All I really want is to sneak into the break room, make a coffee, and pretend I’m invisible for five minutes.

If I make the mistake of opening this door… it’s over. 😅

I’ve been trying to write a blog every day since Wednesday, and honestly, this week has been chaos. I’ve even lost weight from being glued to my desk — barely getting up all day. I come in, eat a big breakfast, work straight through, and suddenly it’s 5 p.m. and I realize I haven’t eaten since. I guess that’s what we call accidental intermittent fasting: one meal around 8:30 a.m., and then nothing until after 5.

Anyway, the goal search is still on! I’ve got my eyes on either the Donna Marathon in February or the Rock ‘n’ Roll San Diego Marathon over Memorial Day weekend. Until then, I feel a little aimless without a solid training plan, but I’m ready to shake things up a bit fitness-wise.

A few weeks before Chicago, I got a call from OrangeTheory Fleming asking if I was still interested in their classes. I definitely don’t remember signing up for anything. The girl on the phone, Molly, was super nice — and it got me thinking it might be fun to try something new. I actually joined OT briefly back in 2017, so if I go back, I can take advantage of their intro pricing again. I’m planning to try a class next week and see if it’s worth the hype. OrangeTheory is definitely contender #1 right now.

Option #2: my sister-in-law has been begging me to try Burn Bootcamp with her. Matt’s sister goes a few mornings a week and swears by it. I can’t explain it, but something about it just gives me the ick — maybe it’s the vibe? Still, I promised I’d give it a fair shot. It’s popular for a reason, I guess.

And then, of course, there’s the third option — a random “hole-in-the-wall” gym I found through social media that offers Hyrox-style classes on Saturdays. They’re even hosting a partner workout tomorrow, so Ash and I might go check it out.

For now, I’m logging off and heading to my hair appointment — getting these grey roots covered and maybe bringing a little blonde ambition back into the mix. 💇🏼‍♀️✨
