I haven't run since last Monday. I haven't actually worked out since Tuesday. I decided to take a break because my shins hurt to a ridiculous degree, and it wasn't going away as I got (I think) stronger. So, in an attempt to prevent further injury, I took a week off.

It's basically exactly what I wanted, but couldn't describe. So I am definitely sticking with this stylist, and I'm really glad I found someone I can trust ( Read more... )

Can we talk for a moment about what's going on in North Korea? No? Okay fine. I will say that it's fucking crazy.

I forgot my allergy medicine this morning and it is bad. It's so bad, I'm writing about it. Allergy medicine and birth control are the only pills I take. Both are to reduce chances of getting enormous headaches.

Homemade pizza with mushrooms and spinach last night. Yum! Also my first attempt at pizza sauce, which was interesting. Sweet and spicy ( Read more... )
