Scared of my office!!!!!

Yeah, if I could sit on top of my desk right now, I would. I got to work at 6:45 this morning (sadly, that's only 15 miutes early in my world) and there was only one other person here (luckily!). I walk into my office and as I am getting stuff out of my purse, I hear a kind of scratching and rustling sound. Well, there was a slight mouse/rat problem when we first moved into this building, but traps were set and we haven't had too many problems in the past year. About a month or so ago, I did happen to see a rat outside and I have been hearing noises in the walls again, but I choose to think that they can in no way get inside. Until this morning. So, I go running down the hall to get the other person here (luckily, it was a man). I have him look for something but the noise stopped and we couldn't see anything. He goes back to his office and I start to hear it again...only louder! I walk to the front of my desk and a giant cockroach (waterbug...whatever...doesn't make it any less disgusting!) crawls out from some boxes I have sitting in here and up the wall! Needless to say, I scream, run down the hall, and get the guy to squish it. All day I have felt like bugs are crawling up my arms! And, we have someone here working on our AC and I didn't realize this. So, yep, I heard something crawling up the wall (my back wall is the side of the building where they always put the ladders up) and I screamed. REAL professional! :) LOL!

About the lack of CrossFit postings...I just suck. That's all there is to it. We go, but I am so busy that I forget to write about it. So, I'm giving that up. And we are giving up CrossFit as well. When we first joined in December, it was great! The workouts were hard and effective, the gym was run somewhat efficiently, we liked everyone. Well, we still like everyone, but the gym doesn't seem to be run as efficiently anymore. The workouts are sucking (not in the good, push the limit way) and we generally just go in and do our own thing. Plus, I want the hard, CrossFit, cardio/weight classes. Not so much weightlifting which is all it seems to be lately. So, what's the point in paying them still? I get a free 24 Hour membership and Jonathan can get a great discount through our work, so we might as well just do that. Plus, we want to learn self defense. He took self defense for a few years, but he wants me to know some just in case the need ever arises. We are most interested in KFM as it is the most encompassing. We are checking out several places right now to see what fits us best and what is the most bang for the buck.

Anyway, that's about it lately. I'll try to get better about posting more often. :)

UPDATE: Yeah, KFM is weird. Not going for that so much. Probably either Krav Maga (cheapest and good workout) or Jiu Jitsu (I took it in college and loved it!).
