On the road to self-improvement.

Awoke early enough to work out before breakfast. Discovered, by reading my library copy of SHAPE, that I must increase both the cardio and the strength training I’ve been doing. I hardly broke a sweat today — which is not to say that I wasn’t working. But I wasn’t dripping buckets like last time.

I’m seriously considering joining a gym. Shall research more later. Am envisioning buns of steel, abs of steel, wee MB kicking major ass … mmmm (drools).

Smoking front: Yeah, so I still haven’t quit. I bought a pack of “CAMEL Crema: Creamy and Indulgent Tobacco” cigarettes today. They’re supposed to taste like vanilla. They’re OK. No one in Maryland sells my damn Kamel Red Lights, though, which is annoying.

Home front: Iain is sick today. His “twice-a-year” flu has turned into a quarterly flu. I bought him some Nyquil to stand in my stead while I am at work tomorrow. Wish I could be there to take care of him. This bout of sickness is possibly related to the snow we had today; thankfully, it’s supposed to get into the mid-70s by Thursday.

Apparel front: So I bought a pair of Italian leather sandals today … mmmm, discount. They’ll be perfect for when I can fit into last year’s summer clothes again … and for when the damn weather warms up. Would still like a new pair of short pants and a skirt to wear to work. I shall dress to impress. Perhaps not the suits and twinsets; am leaning toward urban chic [not Shaft MB, as was a previous fashion faux pas].
