One great thing about working out in the winter is when I finish, I walk outside in a t-shirt and shorts in 30 degrees and it just feels good! By the time I get back to the apartment, I am on the verge of getting cold, but not quite there yet.

I went to the DCG meeting for the first time in months. I had kind of not been around them in a while because I've felt more like being a shut-in for the past couple of months. But I miss caving and needed to pay dues before my membership ran out. DCG are an interesting sort - much redder than I care for, and much more into drugs than I care for ( Read more... )

It's started. Everyone got their bonus checks, and now I think people are going to start jumping ship. Jim put in his resignation today. He's moving to Northern Virginia. I'm happy for him - he's going to be closer to his daughter and he's going to buy a home somewhere between Manassas and Front Royal ( Read more... )

I cant believe it, but I am going to buy a sewing machine. I have no idea how to use one, but I have a project and figure it is about time to learn how to use one instead of saving all my stuff for mom. Mom lives too far away for that now ( Read more... )

I can't check my private e-mail address. VT has been hit by the recent rash of viruses and shut down their POP3 mail server. Mrr. I want to check my mail ( Read more... )

I didn't do JACK yesterday and it was great. I slept in, let the dog out, came back and slept some more, woke up and had lunch, watched tv, slept some more, did laundry and read, then went to bed. Yeah, exciting, but I dont care. The weather was crappy and I didn't feel like going out in a 35 degree downpour for anything ( Read more... )

I went hiking with the Atlanta Outdoors Club yesterday and had a great time! The weather ended up being perfect - about 65 degrees, sunny, dry. I started off wearing a thermal underwear top, t-shirt, long-sleeve t, and winddbreaker jacket, but ended up stipping down to the T-shirt and being perfectly comfortable ( Read more... )

Going hiking tomorrow with the Atlanta Outdoor Club. It'll be a 7 mile hike, so that'll be enough for me for a day. Dogs are invited on the trip, so Bailey will be coming along. Anyway, I'm looking forward to it. I had a lot of fun the last time I went hiking with the AOC ( Read more... )

Oy. Massage is a wonderful thing. Every other Friday, my company has a massage therapist come in and give chair massages. You still have to pay, but it is convenient and a nice idea. The massage therapist also happens to be my massage therapist, Terisha. So, yeah. I just had a 20 minute chair massage, and I am just feeling good! I'm afraid ( Read more... )

The heel is feeling a little better. We'll see if the improvement continues. In the meantime, I'm holding off on working out for a wee bit. Other than that, not much is going on ( Read more... )
