Wow...feels like it's been a week @_@

I haven't been on LJ in over a week. That's...not like me. We're going to blame real life and my own flakiness for that. So a quick run-down of what's been going on lately.

Got my hair cut. Now it's shoulder length and not quite so frizzy, whoo!

Went to a bridal shower/bachelorette party on Saturday for one of my coworkers, who's getting married next month. I had fun texting people with the phrase "I have a penis straw!" We also played Catch Phrase, and my coworkers learned that I have a bit of a competitive streak in me. Whoops ^^;; It was a great time - four and a half hours of girls' night out \o/

ammchan and I played a game together via Skype. It was not a terribly long game, as we started it on...Thursday, I think, and finished it last night. The game was called Again: Eye of Providence. Made by the same folks who did Trace Memory and Hotel Dusk. It wasn't the best game I've ever played or anything, but it was a pretty tight little murder mystery, and the supernatural aspect was suitably creepy. I kinda guessed who the killer was, though ;_;

Yesterday at work, I went in at eight-thirty. Had my moment of Total Stupidity for the day approximately five minutes after arriving. We had one person call in sick and one person go home sick, so we were two people down on a busier-than-average Monday (with Mondays usually being the busiest days of the week). Plus a third person was nursing an injured hip and couldn't move as fast ;_; I was supposed to be off at five. At five to five, I asked if they wanted me to stay for a while longer. I clocked out at a quarter after six.

kaitodoushi is coming over on Thursday to start our next game. Persona 4, here we come!

And finally, I updated healthycandy. Alert the presses. Mostly about the P90X program, which I started today. I did the workout less than an hour ago, and I can already feel my muscles protesting. I am going to hurt tomorrow at work...and tomorrow's workout is plyometrics. JUMPING, WHOO!

...I did take "before" pictures to see if there's really going to be that much of a difference between now and ninety days from now, after I finish the program. Seriously, though, trying to get those pictures taken was a chore and a half! Trying to find somewhere to prop it up was impossible! I wound up having to MacGuyver it! I'm hoping that there WILL be a big difference. If there is, I might post my pictures XD Here's hoping!

I am feeling the whole 'bridal party' thing currently. Correlle's wedding is in June (holy SHIT she's getting MARRIED, what the HELL), and so I'm trying the last-ditch LOSE 20 POUNDS OR ELSE! girl thing that we do before weddings/formals/funerals/that sort of thing. I'm going to be buying a very pretty dress in a 14/16 and I WILL WEAR IT TO THE BACHELORETTE PARTY.

DAMN IT.

I'm going to a wedding in a little less than a month. I'm planning on wearing the pretty dress I got for Beauty and the Beast last month. But it was still a little snug at the show, so I'd like to drop a bit more. It's also only knee length, and it's sleeveless, so...nice arms would be nice 8D

GO YOU GO! *POMPOMS FOR US BOTH*

...and now I need to update my weight-loss blog...

[ammchan]

I still think Again had one of the better/best murder mystery stories, even if it wasn't the best game I've played overall. ^^; And I think you said something to that effect too? At least at the beginning. It'll be fun to write fic for it \o/

And I'm glad your worky-outy thing is working out for you. Don't push yourself too hard though love :3 You need those muscles...

The murder mystery itself was pretty tight, although that bit right at the end was sort of "WTF?" but we already discussed that. And the surprise they sprang on us when we found out who committed the first murder was extremely well-executed 8D I'm also looking forward to writing fics for it!

I'm walking a fine line between sticking with it and trying not to push myself too hard. That ab workout is only sixteen minutes long, but I have yet to complete it because my muscles quite literally won't make it just yet ;_;

Oh no! What happened?? D: Umm...I could help you look up some exercises that you could still do, depending on what happened. I WILL HELP YOU, HAUNTY BB ♥ And I will do my best for you T^T

Busted my knee. Initial assessment SEEMS like there was no major damage, but the increased pain the last two days or so might point to needing a second assessment. >.> I'm not allowed to do any impact stuff (jumping, running, what have you) or anything that puts much stress on it for a while. Knees heal slowly. Sigh.

Good luck~~ Yeah, I've been guilty of lack of lj updates too... XD I had to quit working out as much as I liked because my chiropractor said I was getting a 'severe muscle imbalance' meaning that joints that weren't supposed to be clicking, started clicking because of taut tendons. -nodnod-

Between work and working out, I've been wiped out lately. I need to get back in the habit of keeping up with my f-list because I know I'm missing important things ;__;

*worries about you* Stay safe, love, okay?
