Three noteworthy things have happened in the life of Samantha today. Firstly, I finally went to the gym again. I pushed myself to do 50 minutes (5 miles) on the elliptical, while being very glad I hadn't brought a book this time. A couple next to me talked the whole time I was there and very loudly. What was worse was not only were they noisy and annoying, they were also running just as fast as me and I can't even imagine trying to have a conversation and still breathe at that speed.
Then after that, I drove to the crotch doctor to make an appointment for birth control and was told he was on vacation (I swear to got my OBGYN is always on fucking vacation). It was at that point that (thanks to the weird looks from the nurse) I realized my entire middle finger was covered in blood. Apparently I had unknowingly cut my knuckle and hadn't noticed it for long enough that at first I thought the injury must be more serious. I realized I'd gotten it on my gear shift too. Gross, odd, and confusing.
Probably the most exciting news I have though, is that I got highlights. Or low lights? I don't know hair terms but they aren't blonde. They are a sort of coppery red. I hate to say red though because when you think red you can't help but think stop sign/fire truck/dixie cup. It's much more subtle than that and I really love it. I was petrified since I'd never dyed my hair before, but I'm so glad I finally did it. It's a very dark winter look and I think it looks good on me if I do say so myself.
exercise,
