Saturday Anew

So. For some very weird reason, I woke up at 7:45 this morning. I guess that part isn't so odd; the odd part is that I actually got up! I know! It so gets weirder, too! I got up and immediately took 3 bags of trash and recycling out. I know, right? What the hell was up with me?? Hang on to yoru britches cuz here comes even more: I then proceeded to do my dishes!! These weren't any ordinary dishes either - these included a really heavy cast iron pot and a colander. I hate doing those kind of dishes!

So here I am, a little less trash in my house, dishes are done, and I finally get to the task that really trumps all the others - I need to do my laundry. I had intentions to put this off by doing the treadmill for a while before anything else but I realized I really needed to wash my walking clothes - they were a bit rank (except for the magic pants which miraculously never seem that disgustingly dirty). Ok, so I am in my room with my first cup of coffee of the day and I set to work. It's amazing - I am making piles, I am seperating whites, I am hanging up clothes! I am freakin' Suzy Homemaker here. Also, it is only like 8:45 in the friggin' morning here. I am a wonderkind.

So here I sit, 10:33am on a Saturday am and my clothes are in the dryer over at the laundromat. I came home to hang up the clothes that needed hanging. I also discovered that there is no crossword puzzle int he weekend Examiner so I got bored hanging out at the 'mat. I am pretty impressed with me today. Ok, I know regular people do this shit all the time but not me. I prde myself on not having the uality that makes thee kind f tasks easy. (Ok, I don't pride myself on it but it makes it easier than actually getting upset about it. I need like a grown-up person's version of Jone Bycell - she was my Ed. Therapist when I was 14. Odds are I am not gonna find one.)

By the way, exercise update - I walked last night for 41 minutes. I have been doing more incline. I walked at 2.5 incline and 2.7mph for about 15-20 minutes of the workout. It was a tad bit much, I think, but I made it. I am going to keep it at that for a while I think. The machine said I burned 200 calories but I am not sure what weight they take into account when they measure that. I did pretty well, regardless. And i finally remembered to keep a towel with me while I walk. i am one sweaty bitch!

Well, here's to change, people. Here's to keeping to a plan, working for something you want, and not having to wear pajama shorts as underwear cuz all your clothes are dirty. C'mon, I am still me.
