Travel blues...
Jul. 19th, 2005 04:47 pmMy call to Lufthansa in Moscow took a long time and concluded with my being put on the waiting list for departure on the 25th, as there are no seats available over the weekend, nor any for the several days following the 25th. I was told that unless a seat becomes available at the bottleneck (in Frankfurt), I would not be able to fly out Monday. So, I am now back to working other options.
I was very tired last night, to the point where I lay down around 7 pm and woke just short of 10 pm. Part of the tiredness might be associated with my treadmill session of earlier in the day, during which I walked off 600+ calories, I don't know.
Today is my self-appointed fasting day (no complaints so far), during which I've had only one slice of fatty ham that was eaten to conform to the instructions for my BP meds ("Take with food") and to get my fat-burning metabolism in gear, which hopefully was done by my 300+ calorie treadmill session immediately following "breakfast."
The treadmill sessions are becoming more difficult every day, psychologically, probably because I'm not seeing any progress (as mentioned a couple of posts back). Despite the increasing difficulty, I'm determined to continue walking daily, in air conditioned comfort (it's about 90+°F outside pretty much all of the time now), until we depart on Friday.
I should probably go nose around the ILS office to find out if folks are going to stay much past 5 pm. If everyone else is leaving, then I should go back to the hotel as well.
Cheers...
