I just sat with my hands poised over the keys, fingers absolutely still. No words came to me for the above title, as if it matters. But really, how hard is it to title a post? Why did I freeze like a deer in the highlights? I stared at the Christmas tree into the bright of the white lights that are woven through it’s branches. Nothing. Ham? Ham sandwich? Then…eureka! Tree Lights! So there you go. : )
An eventful Friday night. That’s to be read with sarcasm, in case you didn’t relate it to the above, wink wink.
Ouch, this is painful. For you. Let’s do this and be done with it.
Mood:
Groggy. A few tears were shed this evening, followed by me splayed out on the couch. Followed by dozing off. Followed by an hour and a half nap. I woke up a bit before 8:00. Oh, I am definitely Zombie right now.
Fitness:
Ran 4.5 miles. With the sun setting at 5:30, it’s hard to get a run in after work. The treadmill at the gym is always an option, but my gym becomes a hot, humid, smelly zoo between the hours of 5:00 and 8:00 pm. Who wants in on that? Not me. So once or twice a week I will pack a bag with running clothes and shoes, leaving most of my other things behind at home (i.e. cell phone, wallet) so I can run home w/out any baggage. It’s a nice run, with the exception of the couple of fast food joints that I have to pass that render me temporarily suffocated with their greasy, chemical smells of fried fish and chinese food.
Food:
Early evening snack: a few teensy weensy bites of a deliciously rich and chocolatey brownie, a taste of a blueberry muffin, and half of a tiny cookie, all leftover treats that Lucas had brought from his holiday party at work.
After my shower*, I had a bowl of vegetarian chili, also a leftover from the party. It had a nice variety of beans as well as some baby carrots, muy rico (that means delicious in Argentina). And after my unexpected nap, I had a ham sandwich with cheese and tomato slices.


Green heart:
*Black heart. I am bad, bad, bad at wasting water and energy in the shower. I LOVE a long, hot shower. All of my showers are long, hot showers. Green heart? Oh, how the mighty have fallen/are falling!! Maybe short, cold showers can be added to my list of New Year’s resolutions? What’s that? The list is full? There is a waiting list for the list? Whew…
