Hmm I'm torn between writing this and reading one of my books. I'm already way into The Girls and then a library patron suggested I read "Freakonomics" and at first I just smiled politely and said I would but usually I don't like things people suggest I read and I don't like promising to read things I end up not liking and dropping after the first chapter. But he was right, it is fascinating. I thought it would be something political or someone complaining about the state of the economy today like The World is Flat (which turned out to be excruciatingly boring, sorry) but its more of an economist talking about cause and effect of really interesting things. Yeah I can't say much more because I only snuck glances out of it while I was supposed to be working at the computer, but I checked it out on my lunch break.
Well there goes ten minutes just talking about the books I want to read. Guess reading wins.
Update on weight/exercise, no real change in weight but going to the gym in the morning has been easier than I thought, and it makes me more awake and prepared for the day. I'll try to go tonight too, then tomorrow morning, since we'll be gone all day Sunday. Looking at my torso pictures from before I got my tattoo, I have definitely gained weight and/or lost muscle mass in just the week and a half I was away. Just need to get back that way and down to 125 and my body and I will be cool with each other.
