The New Adventures of...
Thrilling tales of mild discomfort and general complacence

Music: N.E.R.D - Rockstar (Jason Nevins remix)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm off to a good start.

I didn't get up until 10 today, but on a whole, the beginning of my day went as planned. I got my shower in and grabbed a pop-tart on the way out. Italian was *amazing.* The teacher is very cheerful, I can kind of understand what he's saying in Italian (using my powers of Spanish and French) and my old Spanish buddy Michelle is in there too! This is gonna be great!...even if he did assign us a buttload of homework on the first day. I'm also one chapter away from being done with my Goya homework.

In other news...I went to the gym...

Please. Contain your gasps of surprise and alarm.

The fact is, I always feel good after I work out, but I have just this thing about the gym. People go there all the time and they're always frighteningly skinny. I'm....more on the curvy side, to put it gently. On the plus side, it wasn't the temple of degredation to the human spirit I thought it was going to be (stick figures bobbing up and down eternally on the elipticle machines of Hades, forced by some inner compulsion to run forever in place unto death. Think some hidden, tucked away circle of Hell). On the other hand, the place kicked my ass. But I feel pretty good. Bree, Emily and I are gonna try a Monday, Wednesday, Friday schedule. Here's hoping I keep it.
