Stuff-n-things...

Spinning class continues to be very enjoyable.  Joe tried to kick our asses today, and I kept up just fine.  I definitely think my lagging a couple of weeks ago was due to illness.  So yay and all that... no class next Thursday 'cause the center's closed for Sukkot, but apparently one of the other teachers is adding a Friday morning session that I may try to make, depending on worky stuff.

I tried a WW experiment this week... Whenever the subject comes up on the forums, I say that I can't eat my weekly points allowance (those 35 extra points we get every week to spend however we want) and still lose.  But I thought about it and realized that I don't necessarily have good evidence for that - the last time I tried it, I had a lot of pizza.  ;^)  So this week I'm eating many more of them and we will see what happens.  I expect that my theory will be borne out - I use the Google 15 gadget (yay data) and so far I haven't lost any this week.  But who knows, maybe I'll get a surprise on Saturday morning.

The sun is shining and it is warm, and I am sitting on the porch in a nylon butt-sling with the computer on my lap.  Hooray.  Mark and I IM-conferenced about the paper and have found what I feel like will be good common ground to grow our paper out of.  I am industriously looking at my data about blog audiences right now.  (Well, ok, RIGHT NOW I'm blogging this here blog.  But there are windows and tabs open, and I will be going back to it in just a moment.)

The fabulous relentlesstoil is insanely, nay, stunningly, nay, the VERY DEFINITION OF fabulousity.  And I still think she should slough off work tomorrow and come and "evaluate" my class.  Also:  Hip, hip, hip-ahhhh!

Got a haircut & eyebrow wax today.  Hooray!  Also purchased TRex's birthday presents... she's so easy.  She asked for a teddy bear (never mind that she already owns about a zillion of them), and we decided that she needs a football.  That plus a cute outfit that I liked = 3rd birthday gifts for under thirty bucks.  (OK, not counting the tickets to the Wiggles concert next month.)  And a box that I know to contain a Thomas the Tank Engine Duplo set just arrived via UPS (from my parents).

Is the Thomas the Tank Duplo set different from the Thomas the Tank stuff that had lead paint?

[alphasarah.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the lead paint ones were the wooden train sets.

Oh, okay, good. Thanks.

[alphasarah.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we've been following those pretty closely. Especially the Fisher Price bath set that was in the first batch - we have that one, but outside the affected manufacture dates. Thank goodness, because it's one of her favorite toys.

I figured you probably were. It just seems like there are so many things to be on the lookout for these day :(

Glad she didn't have to lose one of her favorite toys, too.

Cute icon :) She's really a great subject, isn't she?

Oh yeah, she's a total ham. But she always wants to see the pictures I take RIGHT AWAY. :^D

You will be so relieved to know that I passed both HIPAA certifications.
