With a week off from running, I've become quite used to waking up, having a sweet coffee, and then stepping onto my mat for over an hour of yoga. This morning I just could not do it. I went to unroll my mat, and knew it just wasn't going to happen. So I ate something (my appetite is sort of back today), had some tea, wrote some fanfic, and tried ( Read more... )

If anyone saw a custom-friends post today and then noticed that it vanished that was me realising I totally wasn't ready to be all self-introspective (and borderline hippy-ish) with people just yet. My bad ( Read more... )

1/ What the hell is with all these people who lose their snakes? Is it really that fucking hard to learn that snakes need TIGHT, preferably LOCKED, lids? For the smaller snakes, fair enough, you might not think they're strong enough to push up a clipped lid, but for the large snakes made almost entirely of muscle? Are you people dense? I'm going to ( Read more... )

What I should do: 30-50 minutes of yoga to ease all the tension I can feel building up in my legs and lower back.

What I am actually going to do: sit around and watch anime, eat soup, leisurely get ready for work tonight.

So, yesterday, I decided that today, I would lounge around in bed, shower, stretch, do some belly-dance practice, and follow it all up with some yoga and meditative breathing because I feel like I need some exercise but feel too tired to go out on my bike ( Read more... )

It could be psychosomatic but my new meds seem to be working nicely. Took one 20 minutes before dinner last night as advised and I managed to eat everything with no stomach cramps or bloating. I was getting pain before bed and again in the morning but not nearly as bad as I've been dealing with in the past 2 days ( Read more... )

Look at the pursed lips in my icon! This embodies my snottiness today due to men who will not take 'no' for an answer. Had a long rant about it but a hot bath has made me feel like a calm, wet noodle so that'll have to wait for another day ( Read more... )

I had an eye test today and my prescription has changed but otherwise everything looks good. My favourite glasses are having new lenses put in so I'm wearing my back-up pair until next Friday. The wait at Specsavers was ridiculous; they forgot I was there and I had to ask to be seen, getting a little bit of attitude in return. I've been grumpy ( Read more... )

I really need to find a cycling icon.

So the incompetent Halfords people did not collect the fubared bike yesterday. They did, however, collect it today and the man I talked to on the phone was much nicer and very helpful ( Read more... )

I have been super productive today! I cleaned out my desk drawers, went through my bookcase removing books I no longer need/want, cleaned my bedside table, sorted junk into piles ('throw out', 'donate', 'sell'), did the washing up, cleaned my make-up case, organised my desk, and finished unpacking my suitcases. I also found some possible bikes, and ( Read more... )
