- sept goals:
- keep moving 600 cals a day >> upped to 650 lately
- keep strength training at least 3x a week. 4x is ideal!
- run 2x a week at least (getting ready for 5k)
- 10,000 steps a day. 15,000 is even better!
- stretch every night
- not stretching as much on my work trip but that's ok
- continue eating healthy (salads, veggies, less chips/alcohol)
- feelings
- 9/6-7: feeling moody, kind of depressed. annoyed with work and not able to be nice to cris at times.
- 9/9 friday night mom called me to tell me about how her sister needed money again. the whole family pitched in and i sent money to them through wise saturday night.
- 9/12 curisu and i have been jog/walking together and i'm happy about staying active. i still want to start walking in the mornings soon.
- 9/12: was feeling annoyed at cris's lack of planning skills. he sucks at trying to remember dates or what's happening with our calendar.
- felt annoyed at cris again for doing things like slacking at work or not setting reminders for his morning pills. why do i feel that way?
- 9/16: dinner with mariluz and tama @ red robin around 7pm. it was really nice to catch up and hear about how've they've been. mariluz had many stories about guys she met with or 'dated' on and off. tama had a long distance one for a time but nothing since. i also told them about my concerns w/ curisu and it felt good to talk about it with other girls.
- 9/18 trip to granite city / st. louis missouri
- sunday 9/18
- arrived at the home2 suites. my room is really spacious and nice. it has a big fridge, microwave, dishwasher, all kinds of bowls/plates/cups/paper towels etc.
- it's walking distance to forest lake!!! i took advantage and walked to whole foods. bought some pumpkin brownie blondies and other bougie things.
- monday 9/19:
- got off early at the warehouse and took connie and layton's recommendation to check out the gateway arch in downtown st louis!
- it was really convenient - i bought a ticket to go up the arch online for the same day and also reserved parking at the iparkit parking lot also.
- these nice white people took my picture and i met some cool young university students on my way up the tram. i'm glad i went and looked around!
- also bought a really cute mug + magnet
- things i watched/was into:
- house of the dragon ★★★★★
- g4tv recaps of she-hulk and keeping up with the targaryens
- watcher ★★★★1/2
- i really liked the main actress - she was fashionable and had a cute voice like kat dennings
- the ending was a welcome surprise, because they could've easily had her die and the serial killer get away with it. the dynamic between the main char and her boyfriend (the guy from the 1st ep of devs!) was believable and infuriating. i wanted her to leave him and go back to the states.
- the king ★★★★★
- 9/15: g4tv had a bunch of layoffs and it's sad to see creative people lose their jobs like that. bcomp on the she-hulk and house of the dragons recap was a fun person to watch. i was always impressed by how much comic knowledge he kept in his head.
