Great and productive weekend this week, got in a surprising amount of dance plus some walking (my god it was beautiful outside, wasn't it?), and was very good about my calorie intake despite incredible temptation at Alyne's Chinese New Year's party. I seem to be down another pound unless my scale is lying to me in a vain attempt to get me to rethink replacing it with a digital model. I choose to believe it for the moment, as the momentum's got me in a good headspace and I want to stay there for a while. If I can keep this up I just might be where I want to be by Rakkasah and that would be so cool.
Alyne's party was a lot of fun and my Thai yellow curry rice with broccoli, Quorn, and tofu was a huge hit. Everybody was complimenting me on it all night. We got to see some fantastic juggling, then Aelf forgot I was a Gemini and did my evil bidding to go ask Alyne to dance for us. Halfway across the room I commented to one of the guests I'd just met that at that moment Alyne was saying, "I will if you will." To which Aelf replied, "But I'm not dressed for it!" and Alyne countered, "Neither am I, c'mon!" When Aelf stalked back over to me she growled, "You knew that was going to happen didn't you?" I just grinned back at her as she continued, "I fall for it every time, don't I?" So I went out to fetch some music out of the car and we did 3 back to back drum solo pieces and nearly collapsed by the end. Wow that's a workout, and even warmer in jeans and with my hair down. But it was fun, and hey a little more exercise is never a bad idea.
Yesterday I did a slew of errands and then cleaned the apartment top to bottom. Also got a lot of little tasks done that I should have gotten around to ages ago. When I finally had time to collapse at the end of the day I actually felt like I was on top of everything for the first time in a long time. That's a really nice feeling.
Quick Edit: Managed to catch an interview with Daniel Kim on an AZN show called "Dim Sum", and they were doing this quick question segment where he had to choose between two things. One of the questions posed to him was, "Jack or Locke". He paused, looked up as if considering, then slowly smiled and said, "Locke". That certainly made me go, "Hmm..."
