sunrays and saturdays

I woke up at 11:30 this morning. God it's good to be lazy after going through the three weeks of hell since Thanksgiving. Even though I don't have class I'm still going to try to go in tomorrow to get a good start on my research.

By the way? Holy crap I need exercise. The most physical activity I've had in the last month has been walking to and from my car every day. Granted, I have to park about two blocks from the Weather Center, but that's still not enough. It's nice today, so I should go out and do something. Maybe I'll walk a few miles and actually appreciate that it's going to be almost 70 today whereas it would be in the 30s if I were in Iowa right now.

Well, since I can't get the screenshots to work on my XP system at home, I'm doing this for my work desktop...

I have done nothing but sit around inside, watch tv, and eat for the last two weeks whereas during the two weeks before that, I was walking all over campus and eating much smaller portions since I was always on the go and busy. Hence, I may not have gained much weight, but muscle is converting to fat, and I feel pretty out of shape and not fit. I need to go for a walk or a run or a swim or something today.

I care more about feeling healthy than I do looking good. I can be in shape but eat like a pig and gain weight. I can handle that. I can't handle sitting around, getting weaker, having dizzy spells, eating all day long, and then getting soft and just generally gross. I have to get out. The weather's beautiful, and I'm wasting a beautiful day off typing on this computer and watching movies.

Adios.

Working the night shift sucks. On one side of it, it's nice because I do absolutely nothing and get PAID for it. On the other side, my sleeping patterns are totally whack now, and it seems to drag on for a freakin' eternity. Plus, I only get minimum wage. Grr.

Oh well, I guess it's work.

Ugh, I was up until 3:30 this morning posting on HS. I got up at 11:30 this morning and started posting on HS. Been doing it ever since. This place is a gaping black hole for my weekend time.

And I wonder why I woke up with swollen eyes this morning.
