Heading out to hike Ptarmigan Ridge tomorrow, which might be kind of intense since I haven't done a real hike in a few years. I definitely wouldn't have been able to do this 25 pounds ago, but now I'm feeling a bit more confident. Also, I can now wear shorts, which is what it's all about. I'm totally outdoorsing it up with my AA lederhosen cord shorts and tall socks with hiking boots, my new bright green sports bra and exercise shirt, my trusty Northface jacket, a bandana and walking stick. Oh, and the backpack. Other hikers will be pointing at me and laughing. But still, I'm pretty excited. I'm also tremendously bored today as I'm stalling as much as possible with the cars and lights on my painting. This is bad, as I have to finish it in two weeks to enter it in the Fair and I've been working on it since last September. Hmm.
