Not that anyone other than me is remotely interested, but I hit another two (recent) PRs doing strongman training in my garage this morning (saw a post online that the owner would be manning a booth at a downtown event today, so I assumed the group wouldn't be training at the gym this morning).
Overhead log push press of 145lbs (lifetime best is 155lb x 2 reps, back in 2015), and wagon wheel deadlift of 355lbs (I did that weight at strongman, but it was on a longer, more flexible bar, which made it a bit easier). Wagon wheels make the lift just over 4 inches higher (so rather than 8", it's around 12"). My best-ever standard deadlift is 365lbs, and my best 17" deadlift is 400lbs, both of which were also in 2015. I'm hoping that by August, I'll be able to beat both of those numbers.
Oh, I also got my Indian back yesterday. I forgot how nice it is to ride that bike! Was going to take a ride today, but made the mistake of answering the phone when my cousin called around 3p - he kept me on the phone until 4:45p, and by that time, I needed dinner & decided it was too late to go anywhere. Disappointing, and one of the reasons I don't pick up the phone with certain people. I did enjoy talking with him, but would've preferred to do so this evening.
Oh well.
Still no luck on the dating front, and not many in whom I'm even interested (locally). I'm honestly beginning to wonder if maybe I should just exclusively date long-distance. I've found some women who interest me, but they tend either be lesbians, or live at least 4+ hours away (some of them much, much farther!). I don't want to drive that far on a regular basis (or fly, for that matter), so I've been 'passing' on them, but if it were less frequently? I might be able to swing that. I mean, after all, it's not like I want to spend all of my time with someone - I definitely need my space, so maybe I should stop looking so nearby?
Even though I'm no longer desperately lonely, I'm still missing the comfort and intimacy of a relationship.
