May. 26th, 2006 09:36 amArgh, moral dilemma. I really, really want to leave early today and get on the road for Raleigh before rush hour to A) avoid traffic as much as possible and B) get there before dark, since I don't know my way around at all. I can definitely have all my work done by 2:30 or 3, but the coworkers advise that it displeases the boss to make such a request. However, on a scale from 1-10, the severity with which I want to leave early is a 9, at least. I think I'll ask. And he'll probably say yes, but I don't want him to be disappointed in me. I've come in at least an hour early every day this week, though, so it should be okay, right? Sigh. I just don't want to be labeled one of those "kids these days," you know?
I trained with Jen again last night at Gold's. She had me do a lot of the reps from the Bodypump class, and she said I had perfect form. She asked me if I could keep count to music (yes), and then suggested that I train to teach the Bodypump class. I was flattered:) I think it's something I'll definitely consider. I'm sore today, but in the wonderfully stretched and relaxed kind of way, as opposed to the tight and stiff way. I feel very good. I also found a cute new tank top in my laundry - I'm assuming my mom picked it up for me and put it with my things for me to wear, so I'm workin' it today:) Since I'm seeing all these bridge folks again for the first time since I really started intensifying my workout regime, I want to look great. Nine times out of ten, I don't give a shit what I look like, as long as I'm covered up in all the right places, but I feel like I want to make an entrance today, for some reason. I told Nate, my goal is to look awesome, but also look like I didn't try to look awesome. He said, "Well, you've definitely accomplished your goal." Major points for Nate on that one. :)
It's a beautiful day outside, too. So all in all, I feel great. I just wish I didn't feel so conflicted about leaving early. It should be okay...I mean, the work will be done, I've been coming early...I've earned my two hours...but I know it won't be seen quite that way. I'll be the girl who wants to leave before the end of the workday when we've already got a three day weekend on the horizon. Yeesh. I am a good employee, really!
On that note, I think I'll get back to work....
ETA: Yay, I did it. I asked, made my case, and got an affirmative, non-I'm-disappointed-in-you-for-asking answer. W00T. (Somebody get that term out of my vocabulary!)
Peace.
