My plan for this year was to get back into running. the woofer likes it, I like being outside and I find it easy-ish to want to do.

Way more than anyone could possibly want to know about my body and my running )

  • Books unpacked - collection now only fills two bookshelves which I intend to keep as an upper limit. So many books I now want to re-read - on hold until this Trimester is over.
  • Feldenkrais class Part the Second still very interesting, am learning a lot about how my body moves.
  • Archive of Our Own volunteering - back on Accessibility, Design, and Technology (ADT) for the 2012 term - Yay!
  • Couch to 5km just finished week 3 - am doing about 3km in 30 mins. Woofer is loving it. Made ridiculously easy by mobile phone app which vibrates, goes 'bing' and says run to me at appropriate intervals. I just obey!

Have a bright red harness for Kenobi; with enough leverage he can cheerfully drag the hairy_peril behind him on a choker. I can effectively make him her minder which in turn means I can take them both out running with me. He wears it happily. I thought he might look like a dork dog but it's just cute. Need to make vet appointment, he is favouring the right shoulder way too often.

EDIT 9:58 pm Best. Idea. Ever. They ran neck and neck at my left knee for 4km. It was like synchronised swimming except with dogs, they should have been wearing tutus or something.

Kenobi and Wendy )

Night of company and singing with [livejournal.com profile] fred_mouse; and company. Pity I can't sing but all you have to do is hang out with louder people than you.

Family time with mother who came over bright and early to woofer walk and have breakfast with me.

Embarrassing failure to secure sound card tightly enough resulted in having to dissect the whole freakin box and put it back in again. The benefits were immeasurable because [livejournal.com profile] vegetariansushi; shared her delightful giggle with [livejournal.com profile] maharetr and [livejournal.com profile] cupidsbow as we watched the SGA pilot. This is hilarious, I've mostly related to SGA through the fic and I'm watching this and having the BEST time.

The woofer inveigled me down to the beach with scathing commentary and bribes (wet tennis balls - "Oooh!"). Am very pleased, made the distance I wanted and back again and felt good. Got wet through and went book shopping after, now have 4 of the E.E. 'Doc' Smith Lensman novels that I've been eyeing off for a while and a couple of books of short stories.
