• Finish my oatmeal.
• Pile a whole lot of hair dye on my head.
• Do a short, low-intensity workout that won't result in gobbets of dye flying out of my hair.
• Take a shower.
• Sew until it's time to leave for work. 

Let's recap April so far, then.

On the first, baronmind went for a Total Party Wipe in the most convincingly awful way possible. Thankfully we'd discussed possible April Fools jokes that morning, and I realized fairly early on what was happening ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I updated. Rather than attempt a detailed and cohesive post about everything I've been up to for the last little while, I am, instead, going to give you some bullet-pointed highlights.

• Tiffany had an extra ticket to go see Wicked a couple of weekends ago, and very generously offered to take me. I'd never seen a traveling ( Read more... )

I had an incredibly odd dream last night ( Read more... )

We got upwards of ten inches of snow Friday night into Saturday. It didn't interfere with our Friday night run (started late), but as of this writing our neighborhood still hasn't been plowed. Micah and I spent an hour or so this afternoon shoveling snow and putting down icy-melt (okay, he did most of the shoveling), and when we were done, he ( Read more... )

When I looked at the run scheduled for yesterday, I thought it might kill me. We ran immediately after a brief (but intense) rock climbing session, so I was already a little tired.

But after the responses to last night's twitter/FB update, I kind of wanted to share this in a more public forum ( Read more... )

Micah and I came home from our run as usual. I went straight upstairs to rinse off the filth generally associated with that sort of cardio and when I came out, Micah was ensconced in the next room, poking the internet. I asked if he wanted any dinner, and after he said no, started down the stairs in order to make something for myself ( Read more... )

I'm really loving my hula hoop, and hoop dance workout dvd. Hooping has quickly replaced belly dancing (which I still love) as my favorite cardio/core strengthening work out. In fact, I just came in from hooping outside. I prefer the comfort and warmth of my "workout room," but there are far too many computers in here for me to comfortably move ( Read more... )

I missed blogging yesterday. This post still marks the 17th post in 17 days, so I'm trying not to be too irritated with myself, but still.

On an unrelated note, I need to buy a hula hoop. Mom gave me the beginners Hoopnotica workout dvd for my birthday. maezr_rackham was kind enough to loan me a dvd player he's not using, so I can actually start doing my ( Read more... )
