So, I'm going to turkey for 1.5 months.

I'm about to buy a tub of ON protein from costco and pack it in my checked bag.

How arrested will I be? I've taken it on domestic flights before, but never international.

Just buy some when you get there, I can guarantee you that they'll have plenty of protein powder available. Order it now and get that poo poo delivered to where you're going.

Leaving work this morning on the way to the gym I got pulled over for speeding. When the cop asked why I was speeding I said "the pre workout is kicking in". Then he let me go because I'm a firefighter.

True story.

Getting really tired of showing up to the gym and the free weight rooms absolutely trashed by idiots who can't wipe their sweat up or organize plates. All manners of plates jumbled together on bench and cage weight pegs, while the many plate holders are empty. The round plates disappear from the dead lift platform and cage area, and the only set of bumper plates ends up clear across the gym on a smith machine all the time.

Hm, will do. I've been trying to fit this big fuckoff bag in my duffel and I don't think it'll fit without getting whacked and popping open.

Since my job had me all over greater LA (until I quit 2 weeks ago), I'd be driving down to my gym after a 10 or 12 hour work day, total of 15 or 16 hours a day sometimes (work + gym).

Gotta keep it up.

Late night lifter here as well. I work until 2 or 3am usually and most of the time when I get here the only car in the parking lot is the janitors. gently caress daytime lifting, especially at this gym. So awesome having this place to myself basically. Never have to wait on anyone to squat or deadlift, and no one to recoil in horror when I unleash mirror shaking farts.

Sometimes I wish I could quit being a vampire and get a daytime job. But then I remember how insanely packed it gets during the afternoon, and especially between 5 and 9pm. So packed its hard to find a place to park in the gym's lot.. And then I think maybe being a vampire isn't so bad after all.
