I'm a lifelong insomniac. I'll have brief periods where I sleep well, brief periods where I'll go days without meaningful sleep, and the rest: where I just sleep fitfully at best.

Super, super jealous. Sorry to hear about the car and knee, though.

Weighed in this morning at 169. Definitely gonna diet. Confession time: I'm a smoker. It's generally been light and social with a coworker (maybe 1 or 2 a day during the workweek). But it's escalated recently with stress, and it's been affecting my workouts and how I feel. I'm going to use...

I missed out on the premium Monster Manual; I procrastinated until it wasn't available directly. I've been kicking myself ever since.

I'm back to it tonight after a week off. I also stopped taking creatine over that break, so I'm curious what my strength levels will be when I go back. I'm feeling pretty confident with the Upper/Lower 4x/week split, so I'm excited about that. Now that I'm on the other side of Thanksgiving...

@Scribe: dang, dude! Congrats!

I've planned for an entire week off (which is good, as I was pretty fried). I'm already itching to go back, though! Happy Thanksgiving, all.
