Sweat Roundup of the Week!

Like I said last Sunday, each weekend here in my blog I'm going to try to do a roundup of the workouts I've done over the previous 7 days. Hopefully it will help hold me accountable in my workouts this summer and prevent me from becoming a lazy sunovabetch. Here's what I've been doing in the gym this past week to try to look fly.

My younger sister Markie arrived here in Vancouver on Friday night for a visit!! She and a friend just completed a substantial road trip across the entire country, beginning in Massachusetts and ending in Portland. Markie flew up to me from Portland and will be here till mid-week this week.  For that reason, I'll probably skip a few days of blogging while she's here, so that I can spend some QT!
