Various and Unsundry... Part 17?

I painted my nails red for the first time in a while. For some reason, I'm really excited to celebrate Valentine's Day, even though I don't have a valentine. I'm also wearing heart earrings, and a pretty heart necklace. Overkill? Nah.

Do you want to be my Valentine?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

New Guy is not at work today. 25 business days into the new year -- He's missed 4. Not that I'm keeping track of anything. Except for the calendar on my desk.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I actually enjoyed being at the gym/wellness center last night. Seeing as how I don't frequent these joints often (in spite of the fact that I have paid DEARLY for them), I really like this one.

And the best part... there's no drama! I don't know anyone, except for one of the trainers, and she only comes to encourage me. I love it.

I also ran a total of 7 minutes last night. For once, it wasn't because I was too winded either... my legs just felt like they couldn't carry me. Strange, but true.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had to buy a new Nalgene bottle because mine is AWOL. I'm sad only because I had a no-splash mouth insert in it, so now I'm worried about splashing. :( Plus, nobody carries them in store anymore.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've been struggling with uploading .pdf files to blogger. ARRGH.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I missed The Biggest Loser last night because I 1) worked out, 2) had to something to eat, and 3) had bible study. Regardless, I know who got kicked out... and I can't say that I'm sad for Joelle.

Having sent in more than one audition tape, I was aggravated with her from week 1. I did like Carla though... in spite of the fact that she could have squished me if I made her angry!!!

Even though I haven't blogged about it too much, this season is very different (my opin) from other seasons. More emotions. Less weight. Bigger people. But I love the twists of the game, forcing people to go home (even though not necessarily eliminated). Weight loss has to be in the real world.

But I would still scream like a 5-year old in KMart if I could work out with Bob for a week. Shew-Wee!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's 4:52, and I'm ready to go to the gym. It's going to be like 15 degrees outside when I finally leave!!!!! EEek!

You're inspiring me to kick it back in full gear when it comes to exercise. I have a love/hate relationship with the gym...but I'm getting back on track. :)

Rock Creek (an outdoor/camping store) over at Hamilton Place has the no-splash mouth guards. They're over in the strip by TJ Maxx, World Market and Michael's.

I looooove those mouth guards :) Can't do a Nalgene without them!
