August 30, 2004

Days until my birthday: 6
Birthday ideas: Amazon Wish List
Weight: 337.2 (+181.8)
Mood: Confident
Exercise: Rousing walk with Max, plus bunch of torturous exercises on our new Bowflex. My body is in much pain.
City of Heroes Characters: Apprentice is 27, Dark Radiant is 15.

Waking up around here isn’t hard enough, it seems. My alarm clock in the bedroom is 20 minutes fast. Thor’s is 10 minutes fast. So depending on which side of the room I’m facing when I awaken, I have to ascertain which clock I’m looking at and do the required math. Downright creepy to open one’s eyes…see 7:45 am and know one has to be at work at 8:30am. But wait…it’s not really 7:45…it’s 7:25, and I’m still in good shape. Oh crap…I’m staring at his clock. So it’s 7:35 and I’m borderline screwed.

On Saturday, we applied for passports for our upcoming Disney Cruise. I’m becoming cautiously excited about the trip. And now that we have a Bowflex…I will be a tropical goddess! Sunday I went to Atlantic City. No, I didn’t win. No, I don’t want to talk about it any more. 😉

To bed with me! It’ll be amazing to be asleep before 11:30 for a change.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

the wombsday clock graphic with two teal haired women in white rockers. It has reached 12 months and there are teal and white stars all over the graphic.
Well, that happened.
