I'm feeling good lately.  In the past I would have never been able to handle this kind of volume.  That was all in my head though.  I still feel sore but being sore is not a very good contraindicator to exercise.  And I like to train.  Once I get going I'm in the zone and I get done what I need to get done.  Bam.

Tomorrow is the NX Level company Christmas Party.  My contribution is going to be bacon wrapped Lil' Smokies, Christmas cookies that my wonderful Grandma Donna, Aunt Patti, and mother Cindy made for me, and 1L of Jameson Irish Whiskey.  I'm going to eat so much food and maybe enjoy a few aperitifs.  That last statement is only 3/4 true.  I'm going to drink more than my fair share of that Jameson.  Last year we stayed up until 4 am and then I had to work at 7 am the next morning.  This year it's on a Saturday so there will be nothing holding me back.  I'm going for an eight to ten pound Sunday bloat.  I'll probably only drink coffee and cranberry juice to help get some water out.  Maybe some sweating down in Nitro St. Justice's Barbell Club & Gentleman's Lounge as well.  We'll play that one by ear.
