I has muscles!

Aug 17, 2008 18:52

Yesterday I spent four hours scraping ancient, disgusting wallpaper off our bathroom walls. Today I spent five. I'm probably three fourths of the way done, and my arms ache. But somehow, in the span of nine hours, my muscles have become more defined. It's much more satisfying than I could have imagined; I never really had much interest in upper arm muscles before. Maybe I'll have to start working out regularly...

But I have to say, a good night's sleep would be sorely appreciated. Even yesterday, after four hours of hacking away at what is surely the ugliest wallpaper in existence, I still slept wretchedly. I honestly can't remember the last time I slept well. I keep tossing and turning and having nightmares. It's sad, but I think I'm starting to get used it it - so much so that if I actually slept through the night, I would probably think I was coming down with something.

On a lighter note, congrats, Phelps! Eight golds are pretty impressive!

Lots of love,
Emily
