Snickers idea of “down time” and my idea of
it are totally polar opposite, they couldn’t be more opposite actually. When he wants to hang out with a mob of
friends during his off time, I am all about chilling out on the couch or at a
local coffee shop with a hot cup of cappuccino.
Of course, however, now days that coffee shop cappuccino is now a luxury
I’m only able to treat myself to once a week but that’s beyond the point. My point is that I really do value my down
time but it also needs to be silent, do-nothing-but-veg time – no loud noises,
no constant people in my face and definitely no flash mobs of people or
friends.
Tonight Snickers left work early and headed out to Suwon. He wanted to go to the beach after work. I would have gone with him if it weren’t for
the five other people tagging along – no thanks. Two is cozy, three’s a crowd, four is a
party, and five is just way too much.
Count me out.
He always wants to do things with his friends -- he always does fun things with his friends -- and this is becoming somewhat of a problem, at least for me that is. Yes I like my down time but I want to do things too, fun things, but he seems to save all his "fun times" for others. Can't help but feel a bit neglected. It'd be nice if he'd just plan something for him and I as opposed to inviting others, letting friends "crash" our couple time or ending our date time so that he can race off to see friends. I've become that wife that randomly turns her husband's phone off and acts like they know nothing of it because sometimes Snickers can be so Korean -- cellphone attached to his head. I used to complain about it but I've kind of given up. Now I text friends or play Words Free on my phone to distract me from really caring about it. Maybe that's bad of me to do, after all it's not really solving what's turning into a problem but I just don't care to be that annoying nagging wife.
But anyways...
Friday’s are “free train days” at Hulk’s,
meaning that we’re open but beyond any class being offered, both Snickers and I
don’t coach anyone. Members can come
train but they train at their own pace and do their own thing. I anticipate Snickers not returning until
Saturday so this means I’ll be managing the club by myself. This will mean extra loud, ultra old school
beats being blasted on the speakers. He
can’t stand it when I crank the music but I love it, especially when I’m doing
my own training. I’ve been consist with
training hard and training late in the evening, around 10:30pm. I anticipate tomorrow’s training being
exceptionally awesome!!!
When I came home tonight from work I took a
shower and then, while vegging out with my four-legged beauties, I remembered I
had forgotten the laundry. Ended up
running all the way back to the club and then walking the laundry back
home. Talk about training overload
tonight! I had just recovered from my
wickedly insane leg workout on Tuesday and then there I was, after a long day
of training others and doing my own training, running back to the club at
2:30am.
Needless to say, by the time I did get to
sit down for some overly much needed down time, I wanted nothing more than just
to sit on the couch in the family room.
I didn’t turn the TV on, I didn’t even turn the lights on. Only the kitchen stove top light was on,
dimly lighting the room. I was beyond
exhausted but I wanted to spend time with Pyen Chi, Balboa and Pac. I miss them when I'm at work, I really do, so I make it a priority to spend my morning and after work time with them. Pyen Chi usually comes to work with us but I'd like to see about switching it up and taking one of the others with us every other day.
I had had a coffee date in
the morning with a friend at 9am today and then finished my day 19 hours later.
