Weight training: I tried surface triceps extensions but this was too hard for me at waist level. Next I tried hip ups, and these were too easy for me, so I immediately switched to advanced hip ups which were better, harder. I also found I could easily do 1-minute hip ups with no problem. Hip ups are easier for me to do with shoes on. I ate nonfat cottage cheese and yogurt with berry granola. Using a guide of San Francisco walking tours I inherited from Chris and Nate (Walking San Francisco, Wilderness Press), Will and I took a walk in Bernal Heights starting at Precita Park where upon arrival about 100 skateboarders were making love to one particular piece of concrete. We hiked to the top of Bernal Heights Park and enjoyed the panoramic views and some flat pretzels from Trader Joe's. Lunch at Progressive Grounds with Will: tuna salad sandwich and blueberry-banana yogurt smoothie for Will, falafel wrap and iced chai for me. To home. I took a nap while Will played World of Warcraft. Weight training: yes no maybes. Dinner at home with Will: fresh, pan-fried, panko-encrusted trout for me; breaded shrimp from frozen for Will; mashed potatoes for both. Watched Transformers (2007) on Netflix DVD with Will. This film should be played as a drinking game: not counting the existence and transformation of the Transformers, drink every time something laughable, implausible, impossible, or nonsensical happens. Or when Sam Witwicky says, "No, no, no!"
