Opening her mouth and removing doubt
Limbo
June 15, 2005
 

Did you know that Limbo is actually Dante's first ring of hell? Described as (roughly) a green, lush meadow of sadness. That sorta sums it up for me today, only not so much sad but restless and bored. Ennui. But only 14 more days til vacation.

Anyway, work is clothes-rendingly dull. Sure, I have projects, but not enough to keep me busy really (I suppose if I were being honest with myself, I have plenty of things to do, I just dont' want to do them).

So I've had to amuse myself by reading the archives of a couple of bloggers (gah, I just hate that word, but what else to use that isn't just as twee?). All I have to add to that is: please, for the love of pete, please update more regularly. And leave comments for me that let me know you were here so I can stalk you too. And say sweet things to me. sweet. cake. mmmmmm.

Which reminds me, I did make it to the gym again this morning, although it was a passionate battle of wills (me v. my brain) when the alarm went off:

Brain: Look, the alarm is off, you're already awake, your gym bag is packed - the hard part is over, just get up!
Me: NGgahha
Brain: Just think how proud of yourself you'll be if you make it to the gym 3-days running!
Me: tbaljxlkj
Brain: Perhaps if you're doing so well at the gym, then you deserve a treat?
Me: akflgglkas .. wait did you say..treat?
Brain: Yes, but nothing fattening like chocolate - just something that says "hey I got up and went to the gym"
Me: chocolate treat? yes. good idea *springs from the bed*
Brain: uh. okay. good. gym, thats a good first step.


So you see, gym (check) healthy breakfast (check) healthy lunch (*ahem* the brownie was healthy... that's right and it has eggs in it. protein! and flour. grain! and milk. dairy! (insert old Bill Cosby routine here....)).

Won't somebody please entertain me so I'll stop talking to myself?

which cosby routine?
 



"Dad is great, he give us the chocolate cake." (it was from, I believe "Bill Cosby, himself") Where he justifies feeding the children chocolate cake as a legitimate and healthy breakfast option.

It was also the first time I'd ever heard someone, other than my mother, say "Don't roll your eyes at me, I'll roll your eyes right outta your head."
