the seat of lameness!

so due to hacking cough and lack of voice, cancelled new years plans to go away with some peeps for the weekend.
assuming that i keep coughing this much, its not so fair to the people on the bus or to the people i'd be hanging out with. and no voice to play celebrities. but so now we have no plans, no social interaction and no shabbat dinner. i don't give a shit about nye but i do give a shit about how lame we are.
this sucks.

well i made it, but the class sucked

was not into the teacher. if there are less than 7 students in class you should be adjusted more than once....i took occasionally with this awesome woman who would come to you at least 3 times in 25 person classes. she also ended the class 15 minutes early, but that was fine with me.

glad i got out, while the sun was out it was super pretty out, but totally amazing how many streets had not been touched--including ones next to the hospital. saw 2 buses abandoned in snow. on the walk home, not as pretty. kinda wanted to check out a book store, but it was on the other side of the street and too much snow to cross. i wondered on the 24th when i was out if the shops on 7th on the sunny side were getting more business and then today if the shops on the side with a bit less snow were (incidentally opposite sides)

also i'm lame for a lot of reasons, but espcially b/c we did not build an igloo with this snow, it would be perfect for it

55 minutes

so by my accounts if i want to make it to yoga, and honestly i'm not sure if i WANT to...i need to leave an hour to get there and that means out of my house in 54 minutes.
what to do in that time...
well i could tackle my general/vacation to do list...
plus...get out of bed and get dressed.
drink tea (make tea)
make bed
brush teeth
finalize grocery list

some big things i need to do...
make 2 doctors appts
plan and make and send invites for bridal shower
figure out wedding gift
holiday cards (since i missed the boat on christmas cards)
figure out what clothing i can get rid of and get rid of it.


i still have this thing in the back of my throat but its not that bad.

don't tell marathon about the amount of food i've eaten in bed recently/today

back on jigsaw puzzle kick. sad marathon went to work and i can't work on it without him.

i love brian leher but sometimes...i dunno he's a little pompous, but also he has a lot to juggle and its park of being on schedule. i shouldn't judge, but i just did by writing this down.

one plan foiled. no textile recyling on weds. not again til next mon. will have to wait for a couple more sats.
we don't take our recycling or garbage out every week, there is not enough to warrent it. but this week were totally needed to take our stuff out. and the snow has ruined those plans. sorry if you come over and see piles of recyling in places that aren't so pretty.
T minus 29 minutes. nothing done off that list.

we have our own reliable internet....ahhhh finally

walking around so many thoughts in my head, but now at the computer not much there

a comment on the nys blue law that prohibits selling liquor on christmas day--lame

still have some reports due. they are late, but not as late as most people so i'm not in trouble. its of course the hardest ones to do.

was going to go to gym today but forgot my lock. did make it to pilates thought.

sad that more things will be closed tomorrow b/c its also shabbes.

been a while....

went to the new streb show today. saw a couple new acts which i am always happy to see. while i love em, seeing the same peices can get old. i wonder if elizabeth streb is cool or awful to work for, i could see it both ways. there were some new troupe members today and they are having auditions next week. i couldn't do it though. not strong enough, not at the skill level and i get dizzy and nauseous way to easy. i got sick at the last lava class that had tumbling...

finally made it to blue bottle coffee, was totally different than i had pictured it and so was a little disappointed, expecting and wanting different aesthetics. i also maybe should not have gone for the moca since it was such dark chocolate but i would totally go back and try again. did buy some expensive beans though. was cool to see the hand pouring process though.

our landlord does not seems concerned about the serious amount of water damage in the stairwell, a good chunk of the ceiling is about to fall. oh well. would be easier to figure out if i spoke italian.

a farm that marathon and i super like had a farm in oct and we went to the benefit auction last night and dropped some cash. we will be spending some time in new paltz this spring as i got rock climbing in the gunks and he got mountain biking-i will likely pass on going so he can go on harder trails. we also got some dinner gift certificates. i think we both have a crush on this farmer and love her stuff. we are hoping she starts a brooklyn csa even thought we know it will be pricier and in less convenient pick up place.

one week of lava left this session, but signed up for the next one due to work stuff haven't been able to be consistent with one class, and due to aforementioned tumbling issues, don't know which class i should make up with on wed--intro which will have tumbling or handstands in a class that is above my level and i haven't been to in a while..

have i mentioned that i find security questions hard to deal with--as in how am i supposed to remember what exactly i wrote as my answer and while the questions certainly about to the stereotypical american and american experience, do they actually apply to most?

went to a yoga class i liked on thurs, felt like she adjusted me several times and that they were helpful. my body is sore as hell at the moment, but don't think that is yoga's fault.

other things to comment on but i'll leave it here for the moment
