I’m still alive, but have been feeling rather irritable lately. But it’s not the training causing it this time. I’m actually on a recovery week this week and my volume is way down from where it normally is. It’s the same old feeling where I want to just disappear from everyone and everything for a while.

I have a bunch of vacation to burn before the end of the year (it’s use it or lose it at my company). Maybe I’ll take a week long trip somewhere relaxing by myself to just get away from everything. A nice trip to someplace warm and tropical may be in order. Hot sun, ocean waves, white sand… and not having to talk to anyone or do anything. Mmmm… dreamy!
