after hibernation

Back straight into the driving seat. Well not really, just back in the office. My manager has taken some overdue annual leave and I'm taking on his day-to-day responsibilities, plus mine and the projects that he has gotten me to start on. Three pretty big projects. One that could shape how the firm will change its operations.

And as usual.

I'm slack.

The day is almost over and I haven't touched any of the projects. I see piles of paper work, plenty of emails to respond too and excel (and access) is begging me to play with them.

So far, what have I done...?

-> Looked busy.
-> Lunch.
-> Coffee breaks - and lots of them.
-> Looking busy again.
-> Munching on rice cakes (my new snacks at the office).
-> Hanging out with the receptionist.
-> Reading a magazine as "research".
-> Googled random words.
-> Looking at photos.
-> Looked busy again.

Yeah, not bad...

So during hibernation, a few things I noticed. I'm fat. Yep, I admit that I am. I've been gaining weight since the hibernation began. Mainly due to eating and drinking junk - Fatty, greasy food. And sugary drinks. Snacking on chips, lollies and the like. I haven't eaten a decent meal for weeks. I roughly put on 3-4kgs and thanked God that the scales didnt break under the tremendous weight.

So my workout will have to be intense to ensure that the bulging waistline (and sizable love handles) is nice and slim. Shu & Emma has offered some help - which is nice. Alistair wants me to join him in his kickboxing sessions - not too sure about that. But I prefer a weekly (no, make that twice a week) football match. I think swimming is on the cards again. Will have to plan it out and work with it. Oh and plenty of sit-ups and stomach crunches to be done too. I can actually feel my man-boobs jiggling.

I will provide a somewhat detailed report that I promise to do. Just that, I'm feeling slack and cant be bothered to type it up. So, I guess, people just gonna have to wait.

I'm in the library, procrastinating (as usual), and i'm about to burst out laughing at your post...
Love handles and man boobs hey? lol. Good luck with your back-to-shape regime!
And now that I've fulfilled my wish of distracting myself from work and having a good stressless laugh, I'm back to work.

:)
