But only by a super-narrow margin.
I had to stay home from dog class tonight to do some work stuff-- we had a telemarketing (no really, you heard right... telemarketing) training today, and I have to write and practice my script for tomorrow. Because, get this--in front of the whole class, we have to go one-by-one and make calls in front of everyone to observe and critique--- sweetbabyjesus. Last time I checked, I was not only a branch manager, trainer, sales manager, recruiter, receptionist, HR, babysitter and coffee-maker, I am now *also* responsible for telemarketing.... Add one more by-line to the resume. Riiight...
So, needless to say, I made excuses about Day 2. And, you know what? I think it's so cliche when people say they feel *so* much better after they've worked out (even though I know that it's true.) But somehow knowing I'll feel EVEN BETTER than I do right now, sitting on the couch, munching a thin mint, doesn't really motivate me. So I stopped rationalizing and put in the stupid dvd.
I AM glad that I did it, and I DO feel better, for the record. I also think the pressure of having to be accountable after I wrote it down in the last post for the world to see (... or my two readers and 0 commenters... heh heh... gulp.)
Right. Too bad the 20 minutes of workout DID NOT negate the catered pizza for today's training session. And the mini chocolate-covered pretzels for dessert....give a girl a break!
Anyway... light a candle for me tomorrow or something...
Lys,

PUT DOWN THE PIZZA AND CHOCOLATE. I REPEAT: WALK AWAY FROM THE BAD FOOD.

note: telemarking requires a 2 day training? WTF?
