I broke off my sideview mirror backing out of the driveway, the one time I actually get to use it. It was less expensive to replace than I figured and really, everyone's done at some point, I'm just glad I managed to damage my car when I have the money to repair it. Of course on my way to a work-related event tonight I hit a HUGE pothole at the bottom of my block and further screwed up my wheel alignment (not 2 hours after picking up my car from the bodyshop). I really need to get that looked at.
Speaking of work, I'm going to be participating in my reporting town's weight loss challenge for the paper (think Biggest Loser of sorts sponsored by townhall). The lengths the town went to run this is pretty impressive: consultations with hospital nutrition experts, free use of the high school's weight room, discount gym memberships, free dance classes, cooking classes, etc. Now I don't really NEED to loose weight, but nothing motivates you to get in shape like having your failures broadcast in the newspaper (nobody is gonna know my actually weight though, thank you very much).
