Happy birthday ND!
I got lazy and didn’t go to the store last night and now I am lying in bed remembering I do not have milk for my coffee. Sigh.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
This whole working for a living thing does not spark joy.
So much this. Really really want to retire.
Glad the report was good, dcp
Happiest of Days to ND.

Happy birthday, ND!
I had mentally prepared myself to not go running this morning, but it's so sunny out now I have to reassess.
But that might just be the Onerous Task Avoidance talking.

Speaking of onerous tasks, I just got my colonoscopy scheduled for May 6!

Go Tom! I did manage to finally do an send in the at home test a few days ago, so should know in a couple weeks if I also have to do one.
David, go run! Then when there’s a bad weather day you can say “well I did that run on the nice day so I can sit this out”

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Yes, go run! I did strength-training & cardio this morning, because I have appointments after Peanut's dropoff (when I would usually run).

I need to make sure I get in a walk or two today. The other night traipsing around the theatre & then making our way to the Stage Door really re-emphasized how much strength & stamina I've lost. I think in the back of my head I've been telling myself, "When I get better I'll get strong again," and I've allowed myself to be rather a slacker. Well, if I'm not going to actually get all-the-way well again, then I guess there's no time like the present to work on getting as much strength and endurance back as I can.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

Don't push yourself, though. It's better to start with a small amount of exercise and add very small increments gradually. (I'm only saying that because I am famously *terrible* at treating my body with any kind of respect. And in the back of my mind I secretly believe things like "If I was able to do this workout when I was 32 and healthy, surely I can do it now when I'm 52 and long Covid-y!" [SPOILER: I could not, and then it wiped me out for days.] Tim would say stuff like "Add 1 minute per day! Or even 30 seconds!" And I would be like, "Bitch, I am adding 10 minutes!" [Narrator: She learned that she was not still 32 and healthy.])
