Jumping Hurdles
I did two things today that were unexpected, completely unplanned and spontaneous. For those of you that know me, this is completely shocking.
First off, I went to see a movie after work (actually, I snuck out a few minutes early) by myself. Yes, thats right. Ticket for one. In the theater for the 5pm showing of Waitress were 4 others also solo and 2 couples. Woohoo - I like being in the majority!
The movie was one of the best I’ve seen in a while. Apparently the not-so-subliminal messages during the Felicity marathon yesterday totally worked. Go We TV!
Previously I was only an admirer of Nathan Fillion, having been coerced into watching Firefly and completely loving it! But now I am his biggest fan. He is a heartthrob! (Sorry Viggo, George, Brad, Matthew, Christian… but you’ve been replaced)
Oh wait, I realized I did a third shocking thing today. (Yes I know I haven’t mentioned the second.) I talked to someone I didn’t know. I actually had a wee bit of a conversation with a complete stranger - a friend girl who had the unfortunate experience of being next to a smoker during the movie. Ick!
So here we go, last big announcement. Dun dun dun. I worked out on my sorta-dusty elliptical for 12 minutes. Yes, a whopping 12 minutes that my burning lungs are very proud of. Why is this exciting you say? Well, its been longer than I care to admit since I’ve done anything physical…(i.e a good number of major holidays have come and gone… some of them twice!) So this was a major hurdle for me, just getting my increasingly voluminous ass off the couch long enough to break a sweat. And I did it.
I’m not promising anything for tomorrow, but since the hurdles have been jumped, I might as well just keep running!
