Today I went to the dentist! Other than my poor receding gums, my teeth are doing just fine. The floss they give you is so misleading though…it looks like a full size, but there’s really only a little bit inside. After the dentist I went and tried on new running shoes!! I’ve been buying the same pair of stability Asics (21 series) for a few years now, but I was a bit disappointed when I tried on the new model.…

Man, I feel like a whole new human today! Whew! I went into work a bit late and I think the extra sleep must have helped. It also made my day fly by. And, today’s weather felt just like a normal American city’s – I didn’t cringe when I walked outside. It was so pleasant that I took the little one to the park for two hours while babysitting. I read my novel and basked in the sun. Delightful. I…
The sickness is back:( I woke up this morning feeling ten times worse than last week – with chills and aches in every single joint. I knew something was really off when I practically had to force down my gooey, sweet oatmeal. But, I had a busy day of work, so I zombied through the day anyway. I obviously took yet another day off from the gym as well as a long nap this afternoon. I was especially sad because…
Hiya. How goes it? Work was blah – I’m feeling so tired these days and I’m having a hard time feeling motivated. I got eight hours of solid sleep, so I’m not really sure what it is. Perhaps it’s still the lingering effects of my cold? Anyway, in order to keep myself awake between arriving home from work and leaving for my spinning class at 5, I did a little summer bag browsing on le internet. I found a steal…
I’m starting to get really lazy on Sundays, but I like it! I finally attempted the gym, but after getting a weird feeling in my stomach after 20 minutes of running, I decided to call it quits. The gym and I need to get reacquainted! Maybe tomorrow. Matt and I had a restaurant.com gift certificate for a cute Indian place in neighboring Brookline, and since we didn’t get to hang out last night (I was babysitting till midnight), we decided…
Yesterday was so much fun! I skipped my workout yet again because I’m still feeling exhausted from this cold. I walked downtown to meet Matt and help him celebrate one of his coworker’s birthdays. The only sign of spring out there was the bright sun – the highs are still only reaching the 30’s:( I finally got to try another Unibroue beer! La Fin du Monde is one of my all time favorites, but I’ve never tried any of the…
Well, my body is back to normal, but I have a lovely runny nose…I’ll take it! T’was another productive day at work. It looks like there might only be one more big wave of testing referrals before the end of the school year. Yippeeee. I headed back to the gym today and got back in the kitchen! I went to a 5 o’clock spinning class, and although I opted to just go through the motions and not really push myself,…
It was back to work today, and despite not feeling great, I crossed a lot of things off my list and enjoyed a few laughs with the other interns. Aside from feeling sick, the real reason I haven’t been cooking these past few days is that Matt has been away on business. I’m rarely by myself at night, so its been nice controlling the remote, but I’m ready to have human interaction back in my life. I’m a talker, especially…
Today, I took my first official sick day. But it wasn’t that fun because I felt sick:( I’m not sure if this is a cold or something else, but I just feel blah and my throat is sore. So, I caught up on sleep, read my novel, and watched a a ton of tv. I wasn’t up for exercise, but I did walk to the grocery store for an orange just to see how I’d feel getting off the couch…
