My friend and Vox neighbor Heather recently (and not at all hypocritically) pointed out that I haven't updated in 3 weeks--and she's right! I'm sure you've all just been lost without reading something from me in your 'hoods, so here goes a little update-age.
Life has mostly been pretty boring for me lately--thus the lack of posting. Thanks to our slow but steady weight gain since living together (and my graduating--you really underestimate the exercise you get walking to class carrying 50 pounds of books), Brian and I have been utilizing our Wii Fit to try to motivate ourselves to get into shape.
Side Note: If you're interested in Wii Fit and don't already have one, I'd recommend waiting for the newer version, announced at this year's E3 and coming out soon.
Besides failed attempts at improved fitness, I've been working hard to "train" Fritz. (I put that in quotation marks because with cats, I think it's less training them and more requesting they behave differently.)
His playful aggression was getting to be way too much to handle.
Brian and I have also taken to nature a bit lately--with mixed results. On the one hand, we're thrilled to have this lovely trail that starts at the park 100 yards or so from our apartment and winds through the woods and past a lake to another park about 2 miles away. It makes for a great walk with some interesting sights.
A week from tomorrow we'll be leaving for California for Brian's family reunion. I'm looking forward to some vacation time! And what I'm (selfishly) looking forward to the most is getting on a plane knowing it's not taking me away from Brian for an indefinite amount of time. Barf, right?
Hope all of my neighbors are well! And I'll try to post more. In terms of quantity of posts, that is. In terms of length of posts, I'll try to post less from now on. I'LL POST MORE AND LESS.
I leave you with Regal Fritz:
Remember this?
IT'S HAPPENING, PEOPLE.
Joie is going to see Wicked in Los Angeles on Thursday, May 22nd.
...Excitement cannot be put into type. Except by saying, "OMFGZ I'M SO EXCITEEEEEDDDDD!!!11!1ONEONE!!!111!"
Some of the stuff in this entry is a long time coming. I'll try not to make it a novel (partially because I know you don't want to read my detailed explanations of everything that's happened to me in the past month, and partially because I should be reading right now).
I really doubt my trip to California could have been any better. Brian and I spent the entire trip being lazy, watching movies, cuddling to the point of excess, eating beyond the point of excess, and doing all those little things you miss so much when you live so far apart. Though I enjoyed all this doing-nothingness endlessly, by far the highlight of the trip was a day-trip to San Diego!
