Whatever issue I was having with my night guard last week (or the week before, whenever it was) has resolved itself and I'm happily back to sleeping very, very soundly with it in.  I don't know if there's actually a connection between my sound sleep and the night guard... maybe I'll have to do a systematic study.

I got 2 compliments on my hair today - one from a stranger and one from a friend.  So yay on that.  I am very much still loving it.  It's kinda like my hair was in 11th grade, actually.  I'll have to dig up a copy of my junior pic to really compare.

There is only one HP geek in my class.  See, I talk about how language creates meaning and use words like "muggle" and "kneazle" and "Voldemort" to illustrate how these concepts didn't even exist until J.K. Rowling made them up.  And only one person snickered.  I also got to tell the story of baronessmartha, mittenydoom, and me accidentally spoiling the book for the poor woman in line in front of us at Wegman's.  Poor woman, I hope she's forgiven us.

New gym clothes make me happy.  I can totally understand why people live in their workout pants - I got these (in both black and grey) and they are oh so comfy, and they don't look awful.  But I know what Saint Tim would tell me if he knew I was considering wearing them anywhere but the gym.  I also got this shirt and this one in white & grey.  I already have a couple of tank tops, so I'm set in that department, and when spring/summer roll around I'll have to get a couple more pairs of shorts.

Sadly, I managed to forget my snazzy new exercise gloves today and so I had to deal with rings pinching and losing my grip due to sweaty palms.  Thursday I will not forget them, but Thursday I won't be doing the Gravitron which is really when I need them most.

I have the best husband ever on the planet.  Deathly Hallows arrived with the mail at about 11:30 yesterday morning.  I got about 100 pages in during TRex's nap and then started reading again when she went to bed (I was reading again by 8:15).  When I sat down, I figured it would take me until about 2 am to finish it - I was right; I got in bed at 2:15 this morning.  Normally Sunday is my day to sleep in, but usually I get up around 8 so M can shower before he and TRex go off for their traditional Sunday morning trip to Tim Horton's.  M showered last night, though, so he wouldn't have to wake me to watch her while he got clean.  They came up to get me when they got home at 10 'til 10 (and TRex had brought me flowers she'd picked on their walk, too).

There will be an actual review later.
