A new low for a Wednesday. That's good. :)
My butt is so sore today, but I love DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness)! That's when you work out one day and feel fine, but are sore the next.
I've had a serious case of the hungries lately, wanting to eat and eat and eat. So far I've pushed through it.
I slept in today a bit. I walked from the train station to work for my exercise. I stopped at WalMart on the way, looking for a pair of workout pants for the winter. It's getting too cold on some days for my bicycle shorts. The yoga pants April gave me are loose in the waist and feel like they'll fall down when I run on the treadmill. The leggings I bought last year are just plain worn out and I had to throw them away.
I tried on five pairs of pants and they were either too long, too short for winter, or didn't fit in the waist (too loose!). These were size small, which at WalMart is like a medium anywhere else. Anyway, I walked out with nothing.
Well, tomorrow is the big hike from Sibley Park to Tilden Park and back. I'm making Brad bring a flashlight because it's a long hilly hike and we may still be out after dark. I need to make sure I have a flashlight, too. Pictures forthcoming.
We are supposed to eat out this Saturday night. We haven't eaten out in AGES, so we promised each other that no matter how broke we are, we are going out! Period. He wants to eat at New Zealander, which is fine with me. They have been very good about doing substitutions for me so I can stick to my diet. I suggested a light dinner before we go to cut down on our costs.
On the "God front," He sure knows how to get my attention. I have let my devotional readings and prayer slip since getting my computer and satellite TV back. (If you don't know the backstory on this, it can be found here and here.) Well, I had a bad experience on a forum yesterday. It's supposed to be a forum about health and fitness - things are are close to my heart as any regular reader here knows. Instead, it was about attacking people and porn; even the admin of the forum attacked me.
Avoid Lyle McDonald and the people he surrounds himself with. One person there asked me why I was a Christian (I was not the first to mention it - they were). I didn't answer because I don't need to defend God, but really - the people in the forum are the best argument for Christianity. They are an example of the world - mean, backbiting, focused on sex. They are the best argument in favor of Jesus that I have seen in a long while.
I know from experience that when people attack me for no reason that the best thing to do it take it to God and ask that I would see my attackers through His eyes. So the bad experience got me to pray last night, and this morning I did my devotional reading before leaving for work. :) God knows how to get my attention when He wants to.

Where is that non-immediate juxtaposition??

*Sniff* My baby sister's all grown up. You really have matured astonishingly in the past four years.
