A Fun Night

Before I get started on today's post it occured to me that I never fully explained last night's post. I got this calendar for free, I've always been bad a page-a-day calendars, but this one has kept my interest. It sits on my desk (sometimes the pictures/info is inappropriate for the office) and I trade my poo facts with a guy I work with's useless information calendar. So, to be clear, I don't have some type of weird fetish.

Onward.

Since it's 2:50am some random thoughts:

- Half-day Fridays at work are nice, but stressful.
- Work in general is stresful and filled with too much drama.
- The Gap's clothes are really crappy.
- Running two days in a row gives you (and by you I mean me) a stiff knee.
- I had a pretty perfect dinner with 2 friends.
- Then we went to a really fun birthday party where I met this guy I liked and he might have liked me. I don't know, we'll see what happens.

AND THE SUN FINALLY CAME OUT!

Random Conglomeration

While I'm up in MA at reunion I'm not sure if I'm going to have access to the internets so I'll have some generic posts going up...

I email myself stuff I think I should post all the time, but then I never do. So here's two of them:

Irony from a daily publishing newsletter I receive:

Tomorrow morning on the Today Show: Christine Avanti, author of Skinny Chicks Don't Eat Salads: Stop Starving, Start Eating and Losing.

Also on Today: Paula Deen, author of The Deen Family Cookbook.

There's really nothing I can say for this.

This is week two of the Couch to 5k. Wednesday night we did the first workout of week 2, jogging for 90 seconds and walking for two minutes. I wasn't sure if I could do it, but I did and it wasn't even too bad. The only thing I wish I had is a bottle of water with me, but it's so annoying to carry. Anyway, so far, so good.

A Random Conglomeration

Another random post because I'm too tired to put my energy into a real post...

- I went to the doctor for my yearly physical yesterday, she did an EKG and when she got the results back she said, "It actually looks like everything with your heart is fine." And I said, "Excuse me?" I'm 24 years old, what would be wrong with my heart? But apparently that's just what she says normally. The rest of my test results came back today. Everything is great, I am very healthy. My cholesterol is 156, which is apparently quite good.

- Bad thing about the physical. I need to go to the dermatologist. She recommended this to me last year, but I never went, so I need to go. I made an appointment for Tuesday morning. My boss scared me by telling me the first time she ever went to a dermatologist they cut something out of her face. At the FIRST visit! If anyone comes anywhere near me with a knife I'm going to have to have been heavily sedated. Any way, finger's crossed!

- I'm reading a great book:

American Lion

Quite enjoyable on the subway in the morning.

- At work today, in our weekly marketing meeting, we had a contest to see who could name all the books that in this season have netted over $100k. I tied with 2 other people to win. We each get use of the CEO's Kindle for 1 month. I will report back. I'm intrigued by the Kindle, I'm excited to see what it's like, but I'm also afraid I'm going to break/lose/have it stolen while in my possession. Which would not be good.

- What else... how about this disturbing NYT article? This guacamole is delicious. I can't wait to see this movie. Part of which was filed in this restaurant; one of my favorite brunch places in Park Slope. Speaking of restaurants, I am intrigued by this one. And for when you're finished eating you can brush your teeth with this; forget the electric ones, this is what I'm using from now on.

A Random (Cheerier!) Post

So I've been skewing a little negative lately, here's to improving that. Some random thoughts because it's late and I don't feel like working in paragraphs...

- I spent 6 hours in the park today, alone, reading. It was great. Unfortunately there were more children than I would have preferred, but it was still wonderful.

- I Love You, Man is a very funny movie, I definitely recommend it.

- State of Play is a fairly ok movie until the end when it's just lame, I don't recommend it.

- Sunburns behind your knees are incredibly painful. I'm so pale that even with reapplying sunscreen several times I still burn. Thank god for Advil and aloe.

- I got a cardigan, workout capris, and 2 tee-shirts from the Gap today for $60. Not too bad. Without the sale it would have been at least double.

And I'm off to bed!
