Convenient! I've been doing some cleaning. Got rid of a bunch of junk the other day. Filled a box of kitchen stuff to take to Goodwill, and did some cleaning today. I'll be doing some more cleaning over the week it looks like!

Well I only slept for three hours. Joy. Cat went to sleep next to me but was under the bed when I woke up. He came out on his own when I got out dishes to give them all some canned food though, ate, had a few treats, drank some water, then curled up on the couch with me for a few hours. I fed him again a little while ago and he had more water. So I hope he's feeling a bit better. He's chilling on the couch with me now. Thankfully they ruled out a urinary tract blockage, which is fatal without immediate action, because he was able to pee (in his crate, on the way to the vet lol) He did not enjoy the bath I had to give him. Basically just waiting for the emergency vet to call me back with results on the blood test and a deeper analysis of the xray they took. Then I can schedule an appointment with my normal vet, who's right down the street, to take the next steps. Also, my mother runs an animal rescue and they picked up the emergency vet bill for me! That's a load off my mind... I ended up only having a couple gin martini's last night, which is good. I didn't go overboard, so I'm going to take the next seven days off from drinking again. Narragansett is launching a Lovecraft honey ale with Revival Brewing Co. on the 19th that I am more or less obligated to purchase and try, so that gives me seven days, continue giving the liver a break... Unless this weekend gets crazy (a friend is visiting from another state), but I can probably abstain.

Ugh. So, I'm sipping a gin martini as I type this, which means I broke my 30 days of not drinking. Had to take my cat to the emergency vet today. He wasn't eating or drinking (much), hasn't used the litter box and was hiding under the bed (odd for him) all day. Spent money I don't have and got a vague diagnosis, but they're upbeat that he'll be okay... Took an x-ray and some blood to run tests. I'll know more tomorrow. Ugh... He's feeling better now that he's been hydrated at the vet and is back home though.

Owning pets sucks. See my thread for details.......

Corolla's are good. I have a personal hate-grudge against honda civics so I never recommend them to people, but everyone I know other than me has always had amazing luck with them. I just think there are better cars for the money.

I'm focusing on running because I hate it. LOL. But in all seriousness, I want to specifically work on my running endurance, so that's my plan. I'm going to run on weekends though.

Something like that. No workout yesterday. Too fucking cold.

Tell people that those food items have been making you feel ill/bloated lately, so you're trying to cut them out to feel healthier. That usually works. Or tell them to shut up, which is usually my tactic (but I'm an asshole). Today is... cold. Yeah, that's about it. Cold.

You should actually probably tell her she can't act like that at work, it's liable to get her in trouble with management because someone else could take it the wrong way and report her for misconduct.

If you're considering new shoes... not sure how much you want to delve into the barefoot scene but... Vivo barefoot make some awesome shoes, and I've been thinking about getting a pair of Zem Gear's split toe shoes.

Suggested makes/models offhand. This is based purely on reliability: Subaru Outback (amazingly reliable, great in New England weather, roomy for transporting gym equipment) Jeep Cherokee 2000-2004 models (these are seriously unkillable. I see several of them driving around my neighborhood in near perfect condition for 10+ year old cars. Plus, great in snow, good gas milage for an SUV, and roomy) Mazda 6 (GREAT car... that's about all I have to say about these. Pricier though) Ford Escape (These... for some reason.. are awesome, especially the newer models. They drive and handle like Mustangs. It's weird. It's the only Ford car/stationwaggony thing I like... other than a mustang). I highly recommend any and all of those vehicles. I will come back with more info when I talk to my friend... Oh and the Nissan Altima is really nice too. I don't recommend the Sentra though.

lol <- Also a Scorpio. (does that surprise anyone?)

Can I dig a bit and give you some car advice? Some of my friends are mechanics and one of my best friends use to race professionally, and we're in your area. Let me see if I can find you a good deal on something worth the money.

Hey, I just came back after a 4 month hiatus too... mutual missing.

Autosubbed, because it's required.

Holy shit, it's a Sarah.

Subbed. For encouragement. And lols.

Subbed for the encouragement.

Yeah don't do NYRs so I'm interpreting it like this: Make a plan. Be S.M.A.R.T. about it. Stick to it. Done.

I noticed. Nice. The Pistol Squats and Jump Lunges KILLED my legs today, jesus. I might start doing those instead of barbell squats (haha no).

Oh hello shipment of protein powder. How convenient of you to arrive today. *gulp gulp gulp*

First day of the challenge! Let's get back into this! Gym time! *steps outside, feels negative wind chill* And body weight workout in the living room it is... eh, it's still better than nothing.
