I need hobbies!
Well, I'm getting a tiny bit more accustomed to this schedule but there's still a certain resistance. Finished out Monday with a bit of energy left and got to play with a good friend all night. Tuesday? Well, it was something...
I got up
Did 2+ hours OT
Went to the store
Took a 3 and 1/2 mile walk (found out the frontage road on Mopac has no sidewalk, but it was too late to turn around at that point lol)
Went swimming
Dyed my hair
Took a shower
Finished a book
And then, when all of that was done, it was still only 7:30!!!!! *sigh*
Another reason this schedule isn't too beneficial for me? I get bored so I go out and buy things I've wanted/needed but never taken the time to get. Like new sheets and a new duvet - 400 thread count for each. It's like sleeping in a hotel bed, crisp and cool. Did I want them? You bet. Will I use them? Of course. Did I need them? .....
This week I spent a little more time with a few other friends, and even made a trip downtown to finalize things with my tattoo. I am chickening out a little bit though - Thursday the 1st I'm going in just for the blue jays up on the collar bone. I'll go back for the cross and designs to tie it all together around my birthday. I just don't think I'm woman enough to last the whole 8 hours. Ah well. It's still exciting and terrifying. I'm also thinking about taking something up. Not sure what. Maybe looking into a community choir or sign language classes at ACC. In closing, I got another little book case (so my bedroom is officially the way I want it) and got to make a trip out to Ancient Mysteries and Crystal Works for a few new "toys"... this month should be shaping up on its way out :)
And so it goes. Today's my Monday and only 8 and 1/2 hours to go (4 of which are IRC, 1 of which is lunch), so it's looking pretty good so far.
