Mar. 29th, 2022 10:34 amkid and i periodically talk about moving to forks, wa -- vampires, werewolves, rain, and fog are our jam -- and yesterday i checked the weather there:
45 degrees and rainy.
OUR weather, here in our lovely mountain community, was just about exactly the same! that was it for the similarities, though. :( we have no vampires NOR american indian werewolves. =\ bah. we did have some sun -- and one of my neighbors captured this:
i am DYING at that deer; they're always peeking in windows and being nosy.

our rowing machine arrived yesterday and while i like to think i made it halfway through the english channel, i actually only "traveled" 2000 (and some change) meters. i say only, but it was a decent beginner workout that focused on form, because apparently there's a right way and wrong way to row. this week is only beginner workouts so i can go slow and figure out where the power moments and neutral body positions are. i'm going to say this -- i hated actually doing pilates (although i liked the machine!), but they worked and because things were so controlled, i learned a lot about how my body worked when engaging specific muscle groups.
i'm going to add some yoga to the mix next week (or maybe this week) and focus on hip flexors. i also need to add planks into the mix, because my genteel core muscles need it.
srsly, they hear me contemplating strenuous work that engages them, and they're like "no, no, let's sit and have tea and scones and discuss art! or how about a nap, right-o, jolly good?"

mister's birthday is tomorrow and he was all about trying something from the indian restaurant. i'm ambivalent. for the most part, most indian food i have had, i haven't enjoyed; i think there's an indian-food-ubiquitous-spice that does wrong by me and sideways bitch slaps my sinuses. then again, there have been a few curries that i've had which have made me swoon. and i will fight you for a good chapati, for reals.
so tomorrow i am going to go with what has the most solid reviews -- the tandoori chicken tikka and a pile of roti and hope for the best.
*
there has been dog drama this morning. i gave two big chew bones to the big dogs and a little chew bone to the little dog. because they all are not exactly the same, there has been MASS complaint -- well, big guy onslow is chill -- and it's funny and annoying all at the same time. weirdos.
ok. i go. time to get more coffee, write, and wait for the sun to come out.
peace, lovies. <3
