• So...

   

  It's Monday. 

  And I'm wearing three scarves, which is great because it makes me feel so cozy and warm. 

  And it's because of the scarves that I realize that my skin on my neck turns into the palest it can possibly get ever in the winter. A thought that never crossed my mind before ever. 

   

  So during the week, Ben and I have taken to drinking protein shakes instead of eating normal meals (mostly for breakfast and lunch for me.  And also because I can't resist the call of some actual food for dinner... like carrot sticks! Wheeee!). With the shakes, we're also working out for at least an hour every night at Lifetime.  And by working out, I mean that it's MOSTLY free weight training, machine work and resistance training with a little bit of cardio.
  It's amazing because over the course of a few weeks I've already seen a lot of improvement in my upper body, which is saying something since I kind of turned to mush after starting MCAD (Sit in class, go to studio, sit in studio for hours, sleep, repeat). 

  Last Friday at happy hour, someone said I was the most muscular person at the table! It made me feel pretty awesome. 

   

  Anyway, I think it's time for me to get back into posting regularly.  Like I said before, I've been looking back at my really old posts (way back in 2004) and really like documenting my weird little moments in my life. 

  For instance:

  My awesome win from the Yankee Swap/Greed game at the office Christmas party.  AWESOME.

  

   

  I think it'll be nice to get into this again.  I remember the reason why I posted so much before was because I had so many friends with Xangas when I started. 

  Now, I look back at their blogs, and all I see is some post saying "Wow! I totally forgot I have one of these!  More posts soon!" from back in 2006.
  It feels good to have maintained being so committed to this blog.  And I shall continue!

   

  All the best,

  Mary
