it's midnight and we're still watching tv:
Discovery Atlas: Australia.
I'm diggin' on this series.
Unfortunately, we missed the Italy episode, but
luckily, my baby found that we can download it
from the 'net.

Ate wayyy too much chocolate today. At least
it was the dark kind. I really should have worked out.
I was actually feeling a little restless.
not quite sure why, but i suspect
that it was due to the carb-loaded breakfast I had
this morning. It was healthy, but probably
a bit more sugar than I needed to start my day.

a bunch of my co-workers and i took
a 4pm break and walked to the cafe nearby.
i'm really glad that more people are down
to hang out like this.
we have mostly new staff now
so I think people are more open
and want to build community and friendships
amongst eachothr.
before these new co-workers of mine arrived,
the office was just that - an office...
a quiet,non-interactive, boring office.
people just came to work, period.
there were literally only a handful of people
that kept me alive and sane.
now, 50% of our staff have livened things up.

yesterday, I worked out and found that I gained
a couple of pounds from not working out
continuously for 3-4 weeks.
i'm feeling a bit anxious about it.
i just want to be healthy, flexible and balanced.
i'm looking forward to losing my first 10-15 lbs.
i'm hoping I can accomplish it in the next month.
[cross fingers].

i was happy to speak to my nephew today.
he tries to speak more now. he's less than
3 months old, so he can't really speak, but
he reacts much more. it melted my heart
to hear him and his baby talk over the phone.
apparently, he is smiling now, too.
man, I can't wait to see him this friday.

for now, i must sleep. tomorrow is yet another day.
