Ramblings of a Tainted Mind

Not surprisingly, I've been stress eating and not working out for a while, so I felt like a slug. Things picked up when Corey got out of the hosspital, I've done some cleaning, though I have a lot to catch up on.

I have scads of workout DVDs, but today I went back to fit TV and did their All Star Workout. It changes every day, and they usually have an option for folks with injuries or in my case, crappy knees. Today it was something called SlowRobics. I liked it, I feel like my muscles got a good workout but I didn't have to stop like I do with most cardio. For a while there, when I was doing Yourself Fitness every day, my stamina was much better. I'd like to get back to that again, we'll see. Anyway, the All Star Workouts are on twice a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon, so since Corey's on thirds now I'll try and do the afternoon one. The schedule looks pretty good, lots of variety.

Schedule

I'm noticing that I'm having bad allergy attacks when I'm sitting in my back room at the computer. OMG! I can't be allergic to my computer, I'll just die, LOL. Actually, I think it's because I don't ever dust back here and it's pretty bad. I'm hoping that's what it is, so I'm going to try and work on that this week. mezzanoterose and I are going to do a day by day swap, I go to her house and help her get motivated to clean, and she does the same for me. I always feel more motivated if there's someone helping me--even if they just hang out, I still get more done.

Corey and I don't really agree on much when it comes to video games, but one of the silly games we've always liked is Monster rancher. We love going through our Cds and DVDs to see what monsters might be on them--so lately we;ve been playing with Monster Rancher EVO and having fun. It's kind of nice to have him around in the mornings, when I'm awake. Maybe third shift won't be so bad. I'm also hoping to learn to drive a stick since the truck will be here all day anyway. Maybe when mom comes to visit she can help me with that.

...and because cucumbereater brought it up, and it's the coolest thick chick video ever, here's 'Skinny" by Lo-Rider, one of my favorites. If you've never seen it, you simply must take a look:
