Evening workout.
Back
Pull-ups - 8, 7, 6.
Bent-over barbell rows - 6x135, 6x135, 6x135. I tried varying my form as discussed in another thread (http://www.discussbodybuilding.com/BB_Rows_and_form_in_general%3F%3F%3F/m_24287/tm.htm) and found that I actually prefer going completely parallel. I'm not sure how well it'll work when I use a really heavy weight but I'm going to use it from now on.
Laying back extensions - 6x50, 6x50, 6x50.
Triceps
Warmed up with close-grip decline bench press, 10 reps at 95 lbs.
Close-grip decline bench press - 6x205, 6x205, 6x205. Feeling awesome on these. I did 2 reps at the start and they felt really off, turns out I had 225 on the bar. Oops.
Weighted dips - 6x35, 6x60, 6x60. Woo! My new second favorite tricep exercise. I felt like a damn fool with the weights hanging between my legs but they sure worked well. When I first put on the belt I looked at my brother and said "Yeah feels about normal" referring to the weight haha and some chick gave me a dirty look, it was great.

Evening workout.
No training partner tonight, it's his wedding anniversary. I can forgive that one.
Legs
Warmed up with squats, 10 reps at 95 lbs.
Squats - 6x225, 6x225, 6x235. Squats get more and more fun the more my form improves. Almost failed on the last two reps.
Leg curls - 6x130, 6x130, 6x130. 130 was easy enough.
Calf raises - 8x80, 8x80, 8x80. I did all sitting raises this time, they feel better some how.
Shoulders
Warmed up with dumbbell shoulder presses, 10 reps at 30 lbs each.
Dumbbell shoulder presses - 6x60, 6x65, 6x65. Oooh yeah! The 65's felt great. I had two guys looking at me cus my head looked tiny between those dumbbells.
Side lateral raises - 6x25, 6x25, 6x25. Easy enough tonight, I might raise them next week.
Rear lateral raises - 6x25, 6x25, 6x25. I raised the weights on these without realizing it but hey, it worked out fine.
Pretty good workout tonight, I enjoyed it. My workout on Thursday will be my last for probably a week, I have wisdom tooth surgery on Friday. They can extract the teeth in my upper jaw but they have to shatter the ones in my lower jaw. The oral surgeon said that I can expect 3-4 days of swelling and another 3-4 for the swelling to go down. I'd better buy some pain killers.

There's been quite a delay in the journal, I've fallen on rough times. Getting the teeth yanked on Friday was fine (the ****tail of morphine and other stuff they gave me was awesome). I threw off the anaesthetic in ten minutes afterwards and went home with a pocket full of pills. Stopped taking the pain meds, it wasn't enough to bug me. But then it came...
RAGWEED! I got nailed hard with my ragweed allergy AND some other bug that my wife has. I tried going to work today (Tuesday) but I was completely out of it. It's a scary proposition as a programmer to go over the last thousand lines of code you've written and have no idea what it does or why you wrote it.
So tonight won't be a return to the gym for me.. I've had at most two meals a day since Friday, I have zero appetite. I'll be taking at least another day or two off before I go back to the weights. God I miss em.

Evening workout.
First time back in the gym since getting my wisdom teeth yanked and being sick. I'm still low on energy but at least my appetite has started to return.
Back
Pull-ups - 8, 5, 6.
Bent-over barbell rows - 6x135, 6x135, 6x135.
Laying back extensions - 6x50, 6x50, 6x50.
Triceps
Weighted dips - 6x75, 6x75, 6x75, 3x75.
I skipped the close-grip decline bench press because my training partner cancelled. I was out of energy any how.
