Class kicked my ass last night in so many ways. We were back to stand and do the same move for 20 minutes until you want to cry for mommy. My bod's a good deal stronger than it used to be, but my god I just wanted to curl up and die after a mere hour's class. I like Una a lot, I think I've gotten a lot of the fundamentals from her, but I also think this is the last class I'm taking with her. I don't get corrected any more, she just glances, nods and moves on. I've got it and I don't need to keep doing it over and over again at this point.
So different classes next semester, maybe I'll check out the Wednesday night one in Sunnyvale, just for a change. We'll see.
I also came to a conclusion last night, I've lost all the weight I need to. I can see my bone and muscle structure again. All the excess flab has been burned off, and even if I am only a pound away from my goal, it's close enough. Now I need to maintain my current weight and focus on exercising more to turn the remaining bits of flab into muscle. Then I will be happy with my body, or at least content I think.
It'll be the first time in a long time for me, just feeling kind of attractive again is such a nice change. A year + of hating myself is turning around at last. I'm pulling myself up by my bootstraps and getting my life back into order, I think I've moped long enough.
Oddly enough I also discovered last night that I have next to nothing left to eat in the house. Must go to the grocery store for real food, not snacky stuff. If I could subsist on crackers and soda alone I'd be set for the next month. I don't, however, think that's such a bright idea. So food, definitely. Maybe I'll stop tonight and grab some along with more of my cool yarn and I really should get some more soil for my compost bucket. Thanks to food prep on Saturday we've got loads of green in there, and I need some brown to even it out.
Xmas shopping starts in a serious way this weekend, as the housemate and I are planning to head up to the city, Chinatown specifically, to get going on it. I always start there and come back laden with stuff for family and friends. It's very easy to find cool gifts in many of the little out of the way shops in that area. Wish me luck.
Watched the Taboo episode on witchcraft last night with
silkblade,
jimweasel, and
aelfsciene, and we all giggled nearly hysterically. My favorite MST of the evening was Aelf's, "I believe the scientific term is 'nutter'." *G* Someday people making a show on witchcraft will bump into some non-looney practitioners and actually document them on film. Unfortunately they always seem to find the ones who've left the lights on upstairs, but nobody's home. It reminds me of when I ran an ST group back home, any camera crews that showed up to interview us at events inevitably zeroed in on the one person in our group that embarassed the hell out of us. The one we'd try to "forget" to invite to events. Apparently Wicca is no different *sigh*.
Oh, one more thing before I forget, someone left a nice gray sweater over at CF II on Saturday. Anyone missing such an article of clothing?
