1)
It’s
Friday night and I just spent two hours researching—and hoping that I
have—bursitis.
2)
I had scrambled eggs for dinner and bananas for
dessert.
3)
Bananas.

I can't figure out how to turn on the television:
Although this blue screen is maddening, it might be an indication that I am close to cutting off the cable (#31).
Donnie knows how to turn on the tv, but he’s out in the
world socializing like a normal person on a Friday evening.
A few updates:
6) Study Yoga: I bought a
new Groupon to the Bikram Yoga studio in Madisonville. Of all the yoga practices I’ve experimented
with this year, this is the one that gets me closest to Zen. Maybe because the temperature in the room is set at 110 degrees
and the heat causes me to slip in and out of a hallucinogenic state. It’s like a sweat lodge. And when I’m done, don’t bother trying to
have a conversation with me because I’ll be catatonic for at least several
hours afterwards. I made the mistake of
meeting some friends for lunch after my second class and I could barely string
together a sentence as I shoveled food and water down my gullet.
1) Run a Half Marathon:
I tried, I really did. But after
my third week of 9 + mile Sunday long runs, the dull, hollow ache of an
impending stress fracture crept into my hip. I’m going to the sports physician
on Thursday. Best case scenario is
bursitis (see above).
15) Join a Book Club: I’ve successfully hosted two sessions
of “Books and Booze” and have been reading my way through Unbroken, which is the selection for May’s event.
7) Update my Style: This is the best outfit I’ve managed to
put together lately. None of these
pieces are new. Two of them were
purchased from Goodwill (shoes and jacket) and the flimsy little dress is from
Target. Pure class.
11) Join Toastmasters: Two meetings down and I’m scheduled
to give my “Icebreaker” speech on May 19th. I was originally going to do a bit called “My
Life in Spreadsheets” but it felt like a cry for help.
Speaking of spreadsheets, I created a point system to track my progress
towards the thirty-one things I have to accomplish this year. In case you think my lack of posts on my progress means I've not made any, here is evidence that I've been busy:
Booyah.
I laughed out loud at #6. It made me curious to try hot yoga sometime. :)
ReplyDeleteJaime, you should definitely try hot yoga. It made me feel so good that I went around the next day telling everyone how good I felt.
