Knackered!

No exercise today - I’ve been walking around like John Wayne since yesterday’s epic bike ride – my arse feels as red as a baboon’s at the moment. How attractive I must look - it's a good job Kim loves me!
A short entry today because I'm just too tired to sit at the computer. I've been doing really long days at work, and they're really knackering – I worked 66 hours both last week and the week before, and it looks as if this week isn’t going to be much of an improvement - I did a 14 hour day today, left at 8pm and have a 6am meeting tomorrow. Oh joy.
When I get home I’m too drained to do much more than eat dinner, and my exercise plan is really suffering. I HATE it when work erodes so much of my personal time – even on an average day I’ve been leaving the house at 5.30am and not getting back home until 7.30pm, and it hardly leaves me any free time in the evenings at all. I guess I ought to start asserting myself more at work and leave at a decent hour (especially since I start upwards of 2 hours earlier than my boss in the morning). Boy, I am such a sap!
Unfortunately accountancy is one of those professions where your commitment is (wrongly) judged by the amount of hours you work, and so any desire to keep my hours below 55 a week would be seen as being a slack-arse.
Anyway, enough of the self-pity – since when did feeling sorry for yourself ever solve anything?
So the plan for tomorrow is to get home by 6.30pm and to get at least an hour's exercise. I don't want to get into the habit of having more than two free days per week, so having had a rest day today, I've got to get back on the exercise treadmill tomorrow. No more excuses - what are they gonna do, sack me?
