car update.
"So I didn't buy a Prius." I wanted one, but they're awfully expensive. I bought a Toyota Corolla instead. It's the most awesome color of shiny blue. I'm excited. It doesn't get as good of gas milage as the Prius, but I'm probably still ahead based on the amount of gas I use and how much more my car payment would have been if I'd gotten the Prius.

Someone stole my car.
Last night, TD woke me up when he came to bed and asked if I had parked my car somewhere other than where I usually park it (in my parking space). I asked if he was kidding. He wasn't. I walked to to make sure he hadn't missed it (I'm not sure what I was thinking, but it was awfully late and he had woken me up). He hadn't ( Read more... ) -
The good and the bad.
I drove down to my mom's house last night. For Christmas, we had both been gifted with gift cards to a new salon. The place is absolutely beautiful and awesome in every way. Sadly, it is closing (it's only been open for a couple months). They were open this week only to gift card holders ( Read more... ) -
running, after a break.
I didn't run yesterday. It was cold and wet and dark when I got home. It snowed yesterday morning. Running could wait. The goal is to not make this whole thing so unpleasant that I never want to do it ( Read more... ) -

Day 4 (belated)
I've moved on to week 2 of the C25k. Yesterday, we went to the rock gym and climbed for a little bit. I accomplished probably my most difficult climb to date (although I did have to stop and rest about every step up towards the top and I think that at some points, my faithful belayer was hoisting me up). Then, I got on the treadmill for day 4 ( Read more... ) -
Frantic cleaning day
My father and step-mother are coming up for a visit today. I knew this; he and I had scheduled it sometime late last week. However, I didn't make the connection between "parents visiting" and "apartment filthy" until sometime yesterday ( Read more... ) -

Day 3
I've made it to day three of the C25k. It's been ridiculously windy for the past several days, but today it's nice and sunny out so I layered and headed out. My layering was perfect for the beginning of the run, but by the end I had totally overheated and had to take off my coat. I also wore my hat and gloves to keep ears and fingers warm. Those ( Read more... )
