A nice little Saturday. Had to pick up my mom in the city at 11PM last night, so I slept in ….until 7:30. I used to live to sleep when I was younger (and I don’t just mean a teenager – I loved to sleep even as a kid). Now it seems that time has passed. I still love to sleep (who doesn’t?!) but my body knows what time it is, even without my alarm clock. I set my alarm for 7:45 and woke up instead at 7:30 sharp. It’s still more than two hours later than my normal workweek wake up time. I got up and exercised. I also realize that my running ability just plain sucks in the morning. I haven’t figured it out yet. I get winded much more easily, and I get side cramps. So I decided instead of pushing it, I would just walk for 25 minutes, and then do my weights/push ups/ sit ups, etc.. So it was still a work out. In a couple of hours, I will go down and do the running portion (and some more weights). I was introduced to the name of a diet plan called The Paleo Diet. I haven’t ordered the book, but it seems to be based off of how people used to eat. The whole hunter-gatherer mentality without actually hunting or gathering. I can safely hunt my meat and gather my veggies in their specific departments at the grocery store. I think I may try it. Cut out sugar and pasta and bread. We’ll see how easy this turns out to be…
I also caught about 5 minutes of Whitney Houston’s ‘coming home’ celebration. I believe they said it was to start at 11Am and last 3 hours. When I turned it on, it was 3:45, and still going strong. Hope that incorrect timing doesn’t throw off all the later programming…. (really, that was sarcasm, as a) I don’t really watch TV enough to care, and b) obviously, a funeral of such a celebrity trumps and Saturday night movie showing)
Onto school work/midterm prepping, then some Som Sak for dinner with the sister. We’re overdue for a dinner date.
