sexy_romulanToday I:
* played squash with my mom, and am finding that it's not kicking my ass so hard afterwards. I'm toying with the idea of getting myself a membership at this gym, which is a short drive from our place. The RA Centre is a little cheaper due to gov't discount, but not by much, and it's all the way across town. I hesitate, though, due to my history of gym flakiness. It's a lot of money. But it's also rare that I find a physical activity that I enjoy enough to actually return to it, and as it is I'm paying $10 in guest fees for every time I go. I guess what it boils down to is that I have to go at least 3 times in every two weeks for it to be worth it, and I could probably manage that. I think.
* went shopping with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
amazon_syren, which made for a lovely afternoon. Found some matte colours to match several items that need framing, but discovered that Michael's is not the place to order them. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. I will heckle Wallack's and my former instructor's framing shop and see if these places are more useful in getting me my supplies. Also snapped up some seeds at Home Depot - it does me good to see seed displays this time of year, it really does - and a Taunton book about shade gardening, which may actually be very useful if I can track down some of the gorgeous plants it's talking about. Ph33r me, Ottawa-area nurseries!!
* made dinner: chicken skewers and zucchini-chickpea couscous. This makes almost 2 weeks of eating decently. So far it's making absolutely no difference except to make me feel virtuous, but I guess that's something anyway.
