So today I did a thing I haven’t done in a while: exercised in the morning. I’m using a slightly modified version of the Canadian 5bx program; I was originally introduced to it by the Hacker’s Diet and used the simplified version in there to pretty good effect. This morning was the first time in a long while I’d done any real strenuous exercise – the last time was somewhere in the middle of summer, before the burlesque class I was taking stopped. And I’ve got to say, it felt good after I was done running. I was a little winded, sure, but my legs were pulsing with the sensation of being well-used; my body was taking a simple joy in moving.
Hopefully I can re-build the habit and keep it up. It’d be nice to have a flat belly again like I did last year.
Also yesterday I went in for another tattoo session; we ended up doing the white lines and some of the stars on my left arm. It was looking pretty cool before, but having the white there contrasting against the blue/black/purple? Wow.
Plans for today: get paper so I can run off the prints for Kickstarter fulfillment, grab the mail I had held at the post office while I was down in New Orleans, possibly go by Jason’s place for some gaming.
