It’s a long-shot, kid, but your aim is true.

12Apr10

Count ‘em. It’s day one of my new work out to feel better routine*. I woke up at 5:30 a.m, saw it was snowing out(yeahthatsodd), and decided to spend the next 45 minutes dusting the stationary bike in the living room with my lump of a tired body, rather than hitting the trail.  Did some core exercises for 15.  I figure that’ll cover me, unless it magically turned into a beautiful day.  I’ve been purdy lazy lately, and I really need to get back at it. Sitting at a desk isn’t helping me at all. Especially when I have to hop up and chase ambulances in some sort of bizarre sprinting routine at the shop.

I’m definitely jumping on the annual spring “get yourself in check” thing. I’ve been a lot tamer lately. I’ve been consiously reading more and going out less. Enjoying the company of some wonderful people, cleaning house, as well as pondering the future (“Where to next, D?”).

CBC’s a blast.  The only complaint I’d have is the insecurity I have about early summertime hours.  So far, I have one week off that I’d rather be working, but that’s not going to stop me from sticking around the shop and filing some freelance pieces if they’ll have me. 

What’s up today?  Well, I’m on the slow pursuit of Dr. Allison Thiele, an obstetrics and gynecology resident at the University of Saskatchewan. She’s co-authored an article in a medical journal calling on physicians to delay answering the question, “is it a boy, or girl?” Reasoning? Sex selection in Canada.

Add a couple follow-ups, and I have myself a dreary Monday. I wish spring would just verb itself already.

    Let’s do coffee sometime. Now that I’m done school and have a job (shocking) I should have somewhat of a sked that allows for things like a coffee at home.
