I am never letting myself get so out of shape again. I broke the 2 mile mark today, 24minutes and 3 seconds. My goal is 3.2 miles distance, which is a 5k. Once I get to that, I'm gonna run a 5k race and try to get to under 30 minutes. At the same time, I'm doing strength training, working my abs and arms and my glutes. I have much greater muscle definition at this point on my arms and am losing fat over my body. My clothes are fitting differently and in general I feel more and more healthy.

I decided yesterday that I need a coat, one that reflects my personality, something elaborate and distinctive, I'm thinking potentially patchwork in some way. I don't know if I can find this anywhere, so I might have to make it myself. Which means learning to sew and such. But, I think it'll be worth it.


So, my current weird project that I'm working on is my iTunes/iPod oracle. I am using the tarot and creating a playlist with songs corresponding to all 78 cards and their reversed meanings. This is a huge project, but I think I can do it. Plus, I think it'll be worthwhile. Though, after this, I need to get back to work. I have copyediting to do, encyclopedia articles to write, plays to revise, a dissertation proposal to do, tons of readings to finish, my wife to murder, and Guilder to frame for it. I'm swamped.


i have a bit of a crush.

I feel your pain. I went to the gym yesterday for the first time in an undisclosed number of months and now I think I might die.

If you decide the coat is beyond your capabilities, you should talk to my friend Rose, who is an accomplished seamstress.
