the_vultureToday was an odd day (and it should have ended hours ago), though a relatively pleasant one. It was odd in that there was a strange dichotomy between health conscious activity and complete couch potatoing (new verb!). I woke up quite late, spent a number of hours on the computer fussing about with my MP3 whilst playing Scramble (lost one game, won two), power walked to downtown, bought groceries, power walked back (at least forty minutes of power walking, all told), fixed a lovely chicken salad with raspberry vinaigrette, broke out the ab belt pro that arrived in the mail today, then abused my gut muscles whilst watching disc one of the Twin Peaks series (How the heck did Lynch and co. keep that many story lines straight and running smoothly?).
About the ab belt: when I lose weight, I generally tend to lose it from the most active body parts first. As such, I'm trying to get my gut nearer to the forefront of active body parts. So far, I've run the belt about four hours at as high an intensity as my muscles could handle without cramping (just holding my gut in all day seems to lend them a bit of staying power).
It's now about 20 past 1 in the morning (glah!). Having that chai at about 7 was probably a bad idea. Methinks I'll pay a quick homage to the Goddess aspect of Divinity (as I've just confirmed it is a Full Moon tonight) and then get some sleep. I need to be reasonably well rested for the 11:20AM doctor's appointment to discuss the results of Monday's blood tests.
