Jello is a lot harder to work with than I thought...

My friend HC's last day at NM is tomorrow and I couldn't think of a better farewell for her than a calculator in jello.

"it's not easy being green"

mr. roshbosh and I have been in our place for a little over 2 years now and I've just about had enough of the beige walls. We've both had enough actually but it's taken some time to agree on paint colors. Bold? Neutral? Earthy?

WE'RE GOING GREEN!

I came across this picture last week and it just made me so happy. It took some time to track down but I got the manufacturer and shade name and it's going in the master bedroom. I can't wait.

Poser!

I signed up for this race with friends from work on a lark but it turns out this 5K thing is pretty serious. A friend offered to pick up my shirt for the race for me since I had a meeting during the designated pick-up time today, and when I got back to my desk, there was a real running shirt (as in not made from 100% cotton) waiting for me. With a real number thingy. And an orange thingamabob for my shoes. I feel so "official" but kind of silly at the same time since I'm not a runner in the true sense of the word. I have regular appointments with the treadmill but it's nothing serious.

After the race, runners get free beer and food.

I think I'm going to like this whole 5K race thing.

Triple Nerd Score

I bought book 3 this past Sunday. It's been 4 days and I haven't caved. I've been waiting for mr. roshbosh's next trip (he leaves for Jacksonville on Sunday).

But here's the thing. I kinda don't want to start the book.

Because then I'll be one book closer to it all being over.

"Alright, stop whatcha doin'...'cause I'm about to ruin, the image and the style that ya' used to."

Went to a yoga class last night - my first one in a few months - at my new gym, and it was everything that yoga isn't supoosed to be. I left the class more tense and stressed and ANGRY than I was when I walked in.

I didn't think it was possible to miss a gym so much. My old gym was a good fit and this new one is...different. Nothing I can't get used to but it's going to take some time for it to feel comfortable.

Just like breaking in a pair of shoes...
