1.Next week is going to be a short work week for me. Monday, our work is going on a canoe trip down a river (which by the way, the trip embodies about 5-10 of my biggest irrational fears, like amoebas in the brain through the ear hole, drowning, snakes, rapids, tanning). And then I go out of town Thursday through Tuesday the following week. Who doesn’t like 2 day work weeks? 2.Happy Countdowns 5 more days to Boston to visit BFF. 3.Mixed Feelings Countdowns 2 days to work canoe trip 4.Goal Counts Books read in 2011: 11/50 Slow cook dishes in 2011: 1/10 Vietnamese dishes in 2011: 1/10 Straight days of eating vegetables: 12/30 5.Internet Counts 612 posts published on this blog 207 posts published on food blog 3,336 tweets on twitter/curious_notions 1,372 tweets on twitter/lindaeatsworld 82 videos on Youtube channel 6.A couple of my girlfriends convinced me to take a pole dancing class, and it’s happening tonight. Actually, originally, it was supposed to be a lap dancing class but they took that off their curriculum. Ha! I never thought I could seriously say, “Oh yeah, they took lap dancing out of their curriculum.” Anyway, this should be really hilarious at the expense of my own embarrassment. You see, I already have a POLE in my back. I have scoliosis and it was corrected with spinal surgery. My pole dancing range of movement will be limited by two poles instead of just one. Oi. The things I do for my friends. 7.This week’s moments of bliss: ♥ Back to the Future Pt II, watched for the first time ♥ sitting in a comfortable human recliner that hugs during a movie ♥ sense of accomplishment that happens when a girl who doesn’t work out works out 5 days a week ♥ sharing a park bench and eating lunch with Naz ♥ girlfriends who let you call and bitch ♥ dark chocolate with orange flavoring and bits of almond Questions: Are you counting down to anything? If yes, what? |
