It's a cold and dreary Monday morning and I just got back from breakfast.  I was rudely awoken at dawn this morning by some Yahoo pounding something metal with a hammer.  Wanted to strangle whoever that was.  I HATE having my window facing the parking lot - I get to hear everyone as they come and go, invariably talking, laughing, and generally cavorting at high volume.  The sound really carries and I can hear it all.  I also hate facing where I do because it's almost directly above the smoking area, and I get cigarette smoke wafting into my room 24/7.  It's disgusting!!
     Woke up with another deadly stiff neck...I can hardly move it from side to side.  It's incredibly painful, and while I try to do stretching exercises, it just hurts too much and all I can hear is the pop-pop-popping of my neck and upper spine.  I need some serious OT and will ask Klepser the next time I see her.  Need to go lie down and try to chill...not the best of ams.
     I managed to eat a healthy breakfast - cream of wheat, fruit, and coffee.  Will try to behave today and stay on task...I've been too lax this week and doubt that I've lost any weight at all.
