One thorough workout

[redbird]

I left work a little early today, because I had done what I had on my desk and both the people I could have asked "what comes next?" had already gone home. That meant I got to the gym about 4:30. I had a thorough workout: Most of the way through, I looked at the list of what I'd done, counted, and decided to go on and do some hip exercises, rather than stopping because I'd done 13 distinct things, which is at the high end of my usual range of different exercises. I am feeling satisfied, rather than exhausted, though my muscles may say less cheerful things in a few hours or tomorrow morning.
