holy capriotti's

Dan does it again.

The restaurant review man himself comes through with another wonderful recommendation. As I wandered the office today, one of the NOC guys offered to get me a sub from Capriotti's. I of course said yes since Dan had raved so generously about their sandwiches. I ordered the Capastrami (hot pastrami, coleslaw, swiss cheese, russian dressing on a roll) and loved it.

I highly recommend it, although stick with the small ($6.75). I was a little stuffed after eating it, so a large would be way too much. A medium if you're extra hungry. They are located on the south side of Chandler Blvd, just west of I-10.

drama and weights

Well. My life is a soap opera apparently.

I wanted to talk to Lori a bit more, so I asked her to dinner last night to return some of her things and talk. I was completely honest about what I was thinking and while she's still concerned about what she said, we are going to go out again.

The oddest part is, for some reason I don't feel all that confused now. She had misheard a key part of something I said the previous night, which no doubt skewed her thinking pretty dramatically.

So, to give everyone an update on exercise, I am doing 3 arm/back/abdominal workouts every day and riding my bike. On Wednesdays I actually do 6 weight/stomach workouts and do not ride my bike. I've been doing this for a while, and I finally upped my weights this week. It's good to feel some burn in the old arms again for a change, I had really fallen off the proverbial horse.

The oddest thing to me is the tricep workout I do. I ride bicycles. On my road bike the muscle holding up my upper body is my triceps. They are flexed pretty much the entire time and load bearing. You think they would be huge and strong. But no. I have issues keeping proper form with 3 sets of 6 reps and 20lb weights doing a "tricep kickback". Anyone with suggestions on other tricep workouts to do with dumbbells that may help, bring 'em on!
