I'm impressed.

Today was a fucking fantastic day, and I'm impressed. I genuinely feel pretty good about it and if I could manufacture more days like this, or give them out like Christmas gifts, I'd be one popular motherfucker.

Why? Honestly I don't know. It wasn't because of anything in particular - some given event or revelation, but because of a lot of little things.

I will say one thing... It was not my wakeup. My 545am wakeup was yet again absolute balls. I have to do this twice a week? I am obviously no fan of this. However my morning warmup (yoga) was decent and my sizeable yet nutritious breakfast was good.... And then my day continues...
- I am FULLY engrossed in The Soul of a Chef by Michael Ruhlman. Reading it on the train to and from school is a pleasure. (and it's reinvigorating my culinary spirit)
- Class went well, I like to think my smartass comments were yet again a hit, and I think I rocked my management presentation.
- DESTOYED my back at the gym in the best way possible.... And ran a couple miles without feeling like I was going to die.
- Found an acceptable undershirt for Tough Mudder which not only makes me look stupid ripped but it was ridiculously cheap.
- Felt like a champ after getting a good trim at what will likely be my barbershop of choice going forward... And had a wonderful and enlightening discussion while getting it done.
- Bought a 4lb. jug of whey protein. New protein is always exciting.... Well for some of us it is...
- Got my groceries for the week (<3 food)... And last but in no way close to least....
- Made chili cheese burgers for dinner which were absolutely amazing. I mean fucking-epic-in-your-mouth and one day this-will-be-on-my-menu good. Not exactly a healthful meal but sometimes you just gotta eat.

Speaking of.

I'll start looking into posting 'easy, quick and healthy recipes for single people' as someone has requested it, and frankly it's a pretty good idea... Maybe I can make something of this blog. We will see. It shouldn't be too hard... Right?

Either way. I'm going to make a concerted effort to try and relish the little things in life that make my days feel like this one... I felt good, followed my gut and didn't sweat the small shit. Keep it up and maybe soon I'll have more fucking-epic-stacked-on-epic days like this one. I can only hope.

"Enjoy the journey."
