March Fatness: Days 1 & 2

Day 1

Motivation: It's day 1, I don't need no stinking motivation!

 Ate: Berry & mango smoothie, a homemade flax milk mocha, 60oz tea, 8oz plain water, PB&J sandwich, 2oz peanuts, flax crackers + raw cashew cheese snack, a giant veg and tofu sandwich, a few spoonfuls of peanut butter for a treat.

Moved: Jogged, then did some mild stretchy yoga for 10 minutes


Felt: Sleepy! Then stressed from work, then sleepy again. Overall I'm feeling pretty good and optimistic about getting 31 days of exercise in.

Etc: My pace per mile times are slower than when I left off before it got too icy to go outside in the morning, so I'm hoping I can get back to those and eventually beat them before the month's up!

Day 2

Motivation: It's only day 2, I can't quit now!

 Ate: homemade flax milk mocha; flax crackers and cashew cheese; raw chocolate; PB&J sandwich; 60oz tea; 16oz water; tofu, potatoes, garlic, and peppers sautéed into a delicious bowl of dinner.

Moved: I didn't do much, since I was having a weird hamstring thing when I woke up last night, but I did exercise!


Felt: Awake, then randomly SUPER sleepy, then enraged as I blogged about my shitty car dealership experience, then sleepy again as I hung with the roommate watching him play a game.

Etc: I wore pants that are a little too small to work and I feel awful. I really hope this month helps get me in better shape!

Gratitudes: Week Eight

Image
I got little sleep early in the week, but once I managed to get a full day I felt great! So, naturally, this week I'm messing myself up again by not sleeping enough. I'll get better, I swear!
18 February  Cody was dog-sitting over the weekend and through part of the week, so I was home alone with the cats, which is great except when vomit happens. I don't do so well with barf, but apparently Maxwell knows that so when Reuben horked, he took care of it. The less said about that the better.
19 February I don't have the tax refund yet, but supposedly it should be more than enough to throw into savings and have at the ready should something go wrong. Hooray! Hopefully it hits my account soon. 🤞🏼
20 February I have no idea how, but I discovered the My Favorite Murder podcast and I'm LOVING it! I've been listening to little else, despite the fact that the hosts have suggested other podcasts that I've grabbed and ALSO enjoyed the first few episodes of! It's a …

Gratitudes: Week Six

Image
This week was my SIX YEAR Veganniversary, guys! I'm so happy. I wish I'd been vegan for longer, honestly, and if I could go back in time I might slap my younger self and ask her what she was doing  still participating in needless animal exploitation, but I can't DO that because I don't have a kooky scientist neighbor and it's not the 1980s (thank god), so all I can do is celebrate that I've been vegan for over half a decade and make tofu from scratch.
Anyway, here's Wonderwall my gratitudes.
4 February
There was some weirdness with the delivery of said tofu supplies, which I think must have come down to the delivery driver being stoned or something. I was home all day last Sunday and then at around 11am, I got a notice that the package could not be delivered because I didn't give the delivery company my "gate code." I don't have a gate code. My fence is such a piece of garbage I barely have a gate. I checked on the website and the package …

OUT TODAY: Gut Feeling (An Empathy in the PPNW short)

Image
It's October and I'm celebrating by giving you all a free short! Gwen and Mel are thrown together again, so naturally they bicker and then everything goes to hell.



Gut Feeling Despite how things went last time Gwen helped Mel on a case, she gives into the bribe he offers and agrees to let him drag her through miles of gravestones and gobs of mud on a freezing, stormy night. It's not for nothing, at least: Mel's been hired by a rich couple to locate their stubborn kid and drag him home, even if he kicks and screams the whole way. Mel's a werewolf, after all; he can handle a steel-toe to the gut if it comes to that. It's only after Gwen's fingers are numb and her patience is strained that she realizes Mel may not be the only dangerous creature out there among the tombstones. A cemetery, a necromancer, and the promise of a boatload of cupcakes: Gwen Arthur's about to have a very interesting Halloween.
