12 April: Well I'll be damned ...

I've been swept away by Hamilton - the musical, the man - the genius of both.  So it may well be this blog occasionally incorporates apropos lyrics, hence, the title of this entry.   The first time you hear this is in the song "It must be nice, it must be niii-iiice to have Washington on your side."  Later the melody reprises to "Well, I'll be damed, well I'll be daa-aamned ... Hamilton's on your side" referencing the influence Hamilton had on the electoral results of 1800 when he endorsed Jefferson (over Burr).  While this may have your rapt attention, I digress ...

Well, I'll be damned ... well I'll be daa-aamed ... she got to the gym and ran.
Before the sun rise, before the goose flies, the time on the clock had a disguise
Else how would I have done it, why did I do it, tell me please sir, how did I not puke it all up ...
It was before six, no, it was before five and there I was ... dead or alive.  I couldn't tell which.
Well, I'll be damned ... well I'll be daa-aaamed ... somebody's on my side ...

Accomplishments:
1. I got to the gym (I repeat ... this is still a big deal)
2. I got to the gym in the morning before work (HUGE deal)
3. Elevation grade to 10% on the treadmill.   Total distance varying grade 2.3 miles

Startling revelation:  I actually had more energy today when I expected the opposite!  (Well, I'll be damned ...)

For anyone who really might be interested, if you have Amazon prime membership, the Hamilton soundtrack can be streamed for free from the Amazon music app.  Check it out.  So cool.
