Another bulletproof day

I got a call from NRMA this morning. There will be no second interview. It's a little disappointing (it's been nice to know I can get to the first interview stage and it would have been nice to know I could get to the second interview stage also) but it's not a problem. I am still confident there is work out there in the event that I feel like a change after the election when there is likely to be some flux. Also, there will be an election in March which will almost certainly result in the odious NSW Labor Government being turfed out after 16 years, and that would shake things up further.
There was good news though. The overall market may have droppped but two of my stocks that have been dropping recovered (and may have a clearer run ahead.) Even better, a mining service company (AEC) is apparently going to be the target of a takeover offer. It jumped by nearly 30%, so I sold a stock I was thinking of unloading anyway. I just sold it for a lot more, and instead of waiting around for the cash and risking the chance that the deal would be withdrawn or voted down or somehow rejected, I got nearly the full amount immediately. Lucky day.
After work I ran to the gym and had a core centric day.
TW: HIIT with a total of 140 lateral jumps and 100 dynamic pushups to warm up. Then 20 sit ups, 1 minute plank, 20 leg raises - 5 rounds. Then 100 twists left and 100 twists right. Then 100 side dips left and 100 side dips right. Then run home, for a total of about 9km.
Bulletproof! This seems to be a recent trend.
One more thing, I hope I get selected for this so I can tell the Bureau of Statistics that my personal health choices are none of their bloody business.
