Paleo - Day 4 Recap - "C'mon Man!"

(Original FB Post Date: January 17, 2013)

Started today out behind the 8-ball...groan. Kept pressing teh snooze button on the iPhone starting at 5:15am...finally got out of bed at 6:30. This rendered me in a major rush as I ran out without having breakfast. So, today it was Dunkin's turkey sausage with egg sandwich, sans the muffin...so I forked it...ha ha ha...

Lunch was the same thing as the other night with the guys...9 oz. sirloin with double-veggies.

Tonight's workout was an ass-kicker: "Man-Maker" Complexes along with a 40/20 cardio/ab finisher. 5x5 with the following:
Sets 1, 2, 3: 20 kb
Set 4: 22 kb.
Set 5: 24 kb.

Had dinner at Fins A TropiCali Grill. I had the "Jacko Salad" (Paleo friendly version: whatever was not paleo-friendly was appropriately omitted). Thank you to the couple who was there from the gym (but unfortunately don't recall your names...I'm horrible with names) who recommended it. It was quite good!

I'm not sure why, but I was still hungry tonight. Ate some cashews, a piece of broiled chicken, and grapes. Maybe the workout had something to do with it??

Tomorrow evening will be a "cheat" (yay!) Al and I are heading to the Philly Auto Show for the Black Tie Event, so I'm going to enjoy myself. That will be cheat meal #1 of 2 for the week. Not sure what we're doing for the #2, but I'm sure Al will have an idea or two.

Grade for day: A-

Weather Closure

We got the notification last night that the State would be closed today, so another day off...yay!  All told, a short week between MLK day and closures midday Tuesday and today.  The major arteries were cleared today, so it looks like tomorrow will see me back at work. The day wound up being quite productive. We lucked out again with the way the snow came in; the snow didn't accumulate around our property with the exception of the backyard, which meant very little shoveling.  The only shoveling that had to be done was to dig out the cars, which between the two of them took 25 minutes. Hit the gym for the 9am class.  Today's workout was a challenge conditioning circuit.  There were two, 10-minute circuits.  I got through the workout okay, though I need to roll my upper back out tomorrow.  It may be time to order one of those rollers from Perform Better. Hung out at home for a bit, showered, and watched Let's Make A Deal and The Price is Right ...

The Avon Pavilion Stays!

There was some good news in the goings-on about the Avon Pavilion and the business owners who rented the space: the town is renewing their lease for the next 10 years.  The town had originally voided their lease in January once the structures were demolished from the damage from Sandy.  The tenants had an agreement and threatened to file a lawsuit against the Borough if they didn't reconsider.  Well, the town blinked, and the previous tenants have their lease renewed. It didn't make any sense that the town would withdraw their lease in the first place.  They are good tenants, and by the far, the best ones who ever occupied the space (that I'm aware of).  They converted the place into a nice restaurant, and kept it well-maintained, clean, and made it very successful.  If you have a good tenant, why not try to hold onto them? And now the big question:  Why the requirement for an additional 200 square feet of bathroom space?? Here's the article fr...

9th & Ocean

It was a sense of the familiar with a side of strangeness.  Nearly four months after Hurricane Sandy had done her cooch dance around these parts, we finally were able to walk along Ocean Avenue in Belmar this afternoon.  The town advertised specific businesses that were open along the thoroughfare.  I had driven to Ocean Avenue the other day, but the barricades were up prohibiting pedestrian and vehicle traffic.  Al wanted to check things out. We walked down 8th Avenue toward the beach, and saw folks walking and jogging along Ocean Avenue. We assumed it was okay to walk along the beachfront, and proceeded to walk south. A police van was constantly patrolling the area, basically making sure that everyone stayed on the western side of the street and on the sidewalk.  We walked down to the south end and back.  In a nutshell, there was a lot of cosmetic damage to many of the homes and businesses.  One home had some major structural damage, and an overh...
