goals! and stuff!

I am tracking my food again, and this time I am going to stick to it. I need to eat less carbs/sodium and more calcium/protein. Part of that would be so easily solved by cutting out soda, but I have tried that so many times that I think I need to take a different approach.

I'm also going to start doing that whole exercise thing. SparkPeople (which I use to track my food) also has like, sample fitness program things... so I am going to try doing that in addition to taking walks/running a bit on weekends. (Given my recent encounters with gravity, this might not work so well). I have some fitness type DVDs on my laptop too, so I might just work those into my weekend. (or DDR in the living room, [livejournal.com profile] zeenell I am looking at you).

The goal here is so that I can feel good about cosplaying and possibly fitting in my egl stuff again. (...I mean, I fit NOW but it also feel awkward about it? Floofy skirts don't equal feeling skinny). Also, I keep seeing dresses I want to buy and then realizing that they would not look good.

SO THIS IS AN INSPIRATION POST. FOR THINGS I WANT TO WEAR ONCE I AM DOING BETTER.

i just want pretty things )

(This was basically an excuse to spend an hour looking at pretty things while at the lab. Oops)

oh the retail therapy

I might know where I'm living this Wednesday after I finish looking at a few other places. yay!

Lab is good. I'm trying not to think about the fact that I have to pack up all my stuff and move it again.

I am totally hooked on the tv show, Suits. Harvey is exactly the sort of character I love in my shows. And Mike is adorable (even if he annoyed me in this last episode).

I bought lots of things today.

First I went to Borders and bought a pile of books. Figured I should get some more value out of that Borders Plus card before they stopped accepting them. I am annoyed though because I want a copy of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy to read, and they didn't have it. Will have to check the store near me in Boston.

Then tonight I bought shoes!
happiness for my feet )

So yes.. this post is not at all informative or useful. I am just bored.

edit: Oh yes, and a car update! The light turned off randomly as I was driving to CT on Friday. Car still sounds fine. On Monday I will check the oil cap and go buy a new one if needed. *shrug*
