No snow here, surprising, I know.

I dreamed of old college boyfriends randomly showing up while I was traveling. Like serving bbq random.

I woke up weepy. I hope it is not hormones. If it is, my body is really and truly off anything resembling a cycle and I'll need to get back on meds. I suspect it just might be life though.

I am about to go do 18 miles (roughly 3.6 hours) on an ellipitcal machine since I still can run. Pity me.

Go Pix!

Jesse, yeah, supposed to be. When I have put in practice I have found exercise actually helpful, but make by myself do it is still hard.

Coffee in my cup, cat on my lap.

My mother suggested I could wait to shovel until later, so I will! Even the super diligent neighbors aren't out there yet, so that's good.

Home quite safe and sound. I had a couple times where the ABS came on, but mostly it was slow and steady, and aside from a pitstop for gas and donuts, I kept moving from 6 til almost noon.

Now if I could just do something about this headache, so I'll be applying a steamy shower and see if that does more than just plain old painkillers have managed.

I was trying to squeeze some pity out past the envy of how in-shape you are, but no. Sorry! Oh, wait, here, I do have some pity for you for using an elliptical machine; my knees and I hate those things.

Just barely too warm for snow here; it's raining instead. I opened a window for fresh air and now the cats are all frisky, running around chasing each other.

We just bought a rowing machine because it was the one exercise machine we both like and will use. Setting it up today.

At this point, I can't bend over to load the dishwasher or get vegetables out of the crisper without ending up with a cat on my back.

I love rowing machines. One of the fitness centers I belonged to had electronic displays, like stairmasters where you could set times and levels, etc., and you could see your little boat rowing across the screen. Plus, sharks. The sharks just cracked me up.

Three hours on an elliptical! Oy, so boring. I admire your tenacity, Pix!

I still haven't gone to the new health club around the corner, despite signing up a month ago (it's $10/month!). Right now my explanation is that I have a cold, and my congestion is making my head feel all swelled and awful. Scar tissue in my inner ear is still a problem.

I do notice that as I age I just get less... flexible. Everything is more awkward, and it takes more work to maintain any agility. So I will go to the climbing gym in half an hour, at least, which will help with that a bit.

Last night I ending up mainlining three episodes of Jane the Virgin, which is Totally Awesome. So funny, so much heart, so creative. Lots of women, vivid setting, plenty of people of color, and a spectacularly wry/funny narrative voice. Reminds me a lot of Wonderfalls, actually. I'm bummed that I have to go to the theater tonight because I'd rather binge on the rest of the show...
