Buffy ,'Showtime'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I should download the zombie run app (which in my case would be zombie walk faster than a stroll).
Yes, you should! And it'll totally work with strolling most of the time and walking briskly when the zombies are after you if that's what you want to do. The story is quite good, I often want to go for a run just because I want to find out what happens next.
There's also The Walk, if you want to incentivize yourself to park farther away from stores and things like that. It counts total minutes walked in the day (when it's on/tracking). Not so much with the endorphins, though.

Seriously, the switch to working from home has really reduced how much I walk throughout the day, because my bathroom is 20 steps away, instead of all the way down the hall (or in the other office tower, which is what I did to add steps in).
Tim suggested that every time I go to the bathroom, I head outside and walk to the corner and back. Because the neighbors don't think I'm crazy ENOUGH already.
Oh, I think I've asked this before: does the Zombies, Run app work if you're on the elliptical? That machine is evil and yet it's my BFF. I can haul way more ass on that than I can when I'm walking.
I have not tried it, but I believe that it does, you'll just have to use the accelerometer, rather than the GPS>
Stupid oatmeal. You had one job.
We went to the zoo on Sunday. At the front entrance we gave Ryan the map to carry. We got five paces before he dropped it. Hand to God, I looked at him in mock outrage and said, "Ryan! You had ONE JOB!"
It is possibly not my finest parenting moment. Biyi, however, thought it was hilarious. (Which is possibly not her finest parenting moment.)

Ellipticals are of the Devil. At leasat for me. I think it's my shitty sense of balance--as soon as I try to use one I'm struggling to maintain my balance and my thighs get super tense and painful. The longest I've been able to manage on one is two minutes.
I think cholesterol numbers are as much genetic as dietary. The first time I had mine measured, when I was ~21, I was going through a cheese omelet phase, and they looked like what you'd expect for a vegan triathlete. They've fluctuated since but not in any way that I could correlate with my lifestyle. Maybe I just have weird blood.
HDL up: good + LDL down: good = overall up: bad?
My sister in total cholesterol annoyance. My HDL is bananas good, but my doctor wants my total numbers to go down.
Also my sister was just diagnosed as pre-diabetic, so I need to bring that family history up again when I go in.

HDL, woo!

They always test my glucose, too, and that's always fine. So I've got that going for me. (To be fair, my dad not only has super mega heart disease, but also diabetes, so I'm happy to check my glucose, too.)
