Plan: work, load of laundry, clean up apartment, DVD or WiiFit, 3 miles, State of the Union, Biggest Loser.
Guess this means I should get ready for work. π
Later, lovelies. π
Running with whatever life throws my way
I have had a bad couple of food days.
But they are over now. I will start clean in the morning.
I did not run tonight as it was freakin’ freezing & there was (is) a sick boyfriend at home who needed some TLC. Tomorrow, however, it is on.
Tomorrow will be a day of bad-assedness.
I will be awesome, because I am awesome.
I will let you know how it goes.
Until then, I’m going to go to bed.
Night.

I realize that anytime I dream about running I’m running outside.
I’m running outside without headphones or iPod or anything like that.
I’m a pansy, I’m not going to run outside this winter. (I’m less of a pansy when you consider Vermont is headed into a serious cold snap with lows to the tune of -21, but whatever.)
Come spring, however, I think it’s time to make those dreams come true.
I cannot, for the life of me, find a theme I like for my journal.
I know most of you are reading me on your dashboard. And I mostly read off of my dashboard. But I do know that some people check in on my blog from outside of the tumblr-sphere and I can’t find a layout I like.
Boo.
Lunch/Dinner: homemade BBQ chicken pizza. (Crust, BBQ sauce, mushrooms, red onions, baked chicken, italian 4 cheese blend) No, I’m not eating the whole thing. The 2 pieces missing are mine.
And they were good. π
It’s lunch AND dinner because I’m on a weird schedule today–I go into the office late and for a short day on Thursdays, so I run around and do errands (and RUN) in the morning, which throws my feeding schedule off. And I have to be at work the 2nd at 5 PM…so I figured I’d eat this sometime in between. Seriously, so good. π
AWESOME dinner salad from Runner’s World. Mmmmm….
(Spinach, Bacon & Sweet Potatoes)
…but I have to say that I have fallen back in love with Biggest Loser.
I started watching in Season 2, and I loved it. I love Jillian, I loved the contestants. Loved it. It’s the one show that I have consistently been able to commit to.
Then it started to suck. And I was about to walk away when I heard that this was to be Jillian’s last season. So, being a loyal fan/follower of Jillian I had to give it one last go.
And I’m so glad I did, because this season has been totally worth it. Of course we’re only in week 3, so it could still go south, but I don’t think it will, because I really like the contestants, and I really like the trainers.
