Meeting Brian & Susan, and other stuff

Today I got to meet Brian & Susan from Virginia (near DC). Because my apartment is a pig sty, I insisted on meeting them somewhere other than home. The downside is they didn't get to see Abby hiding under the bed and meet Xena.

They met me at work at 3 p.m. and we hung out until 4, then they had to leave to drive to Manteca. I've never seen Susan before and Brian seems bigger (bone-wise) than I could see in the one or two pictures I've seen.

We took pictures. Susan doesn't want her picture online, so I'll either not use pictures with her and/or crop her out. Pics of Brian and I shall follow as soon as I can get them on the computer, edited, and uploaded.

I did get to work out today - yay! I got in 30 minutes of weight training and an hour of cardio. I was sweating so much my towel was damp when I was finished.

I made the bed this morning, stripping off the twin bed blanket I've been using for the last week and putting back on my full/queen bed blanket. I really need another one. The cats keep shedding and I keep having to wash it. I threw a twin bed flat sheet over the bed. That will be easier to wash than the blanket. I haven't seen Abby shedding when I pet her, but Xena is in full molting mode - lots of fur comes off just from petting her.

I bought a shower kit at 24 Hour Fitness. It has a small mesh bag with the logo, a large towel with the logo, and a small, thick plastic bag with drawstrings containing a washing sponge, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and body lotion. It was just $10. I mostly wanted the mesh bag, but I can use all of the other stuff in practical ways so it's a good deal. :)
