It figured that it would rain on me, so I had to bide my time and wait until it was much more manageable to pack and drive. Once I had found a chance, I took it and ran! I crammed a bunch of stuff into Devil that it was ludicrous! I mean, I have played grocery Tetris before&#8230; but this was moving Tetris! The brunt of things was more realizing that after my break up, I didn&#8217;t have much to my name&#8230; After packing up my roadster, It was time to pick up a few essentials. Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and hair spray. After picking those up, I&#8217;d proceed to drive out to Commerce in a torrential outpour of rain. Most of my driving was below posted speeds with good reason. however once some of the moisture dried from the roads&#8230; I wanted to reach my own personal state of divinity. There was one point where I had to back down my speeds and that landed me in first gear again&#8230; from there, I could begin my ascent to the 7th level of Heaven. I would shoot my gears to 7,000 RPM and just engage gear changes at that point until I hit 5th gear. When I finally hit 5th gear&#8230; I was at a nice 100mph. Though I quickly backed down when the roads began to get uneven.<\/p>\n<p>On finally reaching my dorm, I noticed a torrent of people waiting on the elevators&#8230; My mind instantly thought &#8220;This is going to be EPIC failure, but maybe the stairs can&#8217;t be that bad&#8230;&#8221; So on the first round, I went fully encumbered up 9 flights of stairs. I could feel the sweet burn from my muscle tissue tearing all over. It was something that broke the ho-hum plateau that my workout has been stuck in. However, on the 5th repetition, I was about to pass out&#8230; Lucky for me, it was about due time for lunch as I was running on nothing for a full 12 hours.<\/p>\n<p>My first meal of the day ended up being a grilled cheese sandwich, fries, a meatball sub, king chicken casserole, potato salad, a brownie, and Powerade. Take account that I have basically been walking to and from places and using my roadster on a seldom basis, I may have found a solution to burn off my excess!<\/p>\n<p>For pictures of my excursion, check out my Flickr album! <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/zeroxr\">Zero&#8217;s Flicker [Click me!]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So&#8230; Move-in was interesting..!
