An abbreviated workout today. I had an intermittent sharp pain in my ankle last night, which wasn't quite gone this morning, but decided to go anyhow. And then I was overwarm by the time I walked into the gym (with an outside temperature reported around 73). So I skipped the cardio altogether, and dropped a couple of other things:
Hip adduction: 105 pounds, 3 sets of 13.
Hip abduction: 95 pounds, 13, 13, 11
Chest press, 50 pounds, 13, then 9+4. Third set, 45 pounds, 11 reps. I watched someone else
doing these on Monday, and realized that I'd gotten in the habit of not lowering the weight
bar as far as I should (or, at least, as far as he was); doing that makes it harder.
Seated leg curl, 60 pounds, 3 sets of 15.
Adjustable row, 100 pounds, 3 sets of 15.
Triceps: bar handle, 80 pounds, 2 sets of 12. Rope handle, 45 pounds, 15 reps.
Crunches and arches, 1 set of 15 each.
Then I went over to what used to be my usual Thai restaurant on Ninth Avenue. The summer lunch special comes with salad, as ever, and a beverage, not soup. I had hot tea, and what appears to be a seasonal special, soft-shelled crab, with ginger sauce. Not bad, but I've had better soft-shells. I'd walked in thinking of duck red curry, and may have to do that soon.
On the way home, I stopped off for a loaf of rye bread, and again had to stop them from slicing it after I'd explicitly asked for "seeded rye, unsliced". Of course, I also had to point out where the bread was, after she told me they were out of it. When I was a girl, they asked if you wanted the bread sliced, instead of assuming. Of course, it was better bread then, too (a better crust, mostly). A different bakery, too.
Then I went to the supermarket, and learned that I probably shouldn't actually put "melon" on my shopping list. We now have a quarter of a watermelon and a canteloupe. Also flour and peach ice cream. I took out the list to check these things off, and discovered that I should have bought cooking wine. Ah, well, I doubt it'll matter tonight.

Or is that flour ice cream and peach ice cream? Maybe they make flour ice cream in Japan -- they make lots of fish-flavored ice creams.
Flour ice cream just sounds all gummy.
Ooops, gotta go.
