Oops

Oops #1

While I finally cobbled together a costume for work today (apparently people really get into the whole "dressing up" thing), I still have no idea what I'm wearing tonight to Mae and Pat's party.

Oops #2

It seems I've gotten complacent. Since I started working my desk job, I have apparently put on 5-6 pounds. This stops. This stops now.

Here are my rules for making it stop:
1. Even if I don't get to the dojo, I'm gonna do at least 15 minutes of training a day.
2. No more pastries when I go out for coffee for a while. Just the tea, ma'am.
3. No more overeating at games, parties, catered work lunches, etc. If I've already eaten, then simply no eating at the event, or only produce. If I haven't: one plate and that's it. (One serving of dessert is okay if I've been good the rest of the day.)

We'll leave it at that for now, but let's just say I'm unhappy about this state of affairs.

More from the "all you need to do is ask" files

Got into work today and saw I was assigned a horror movie. As I'm fond of saying, "You don't want me doing horror movies. I close my eyes a lot, which doesn't help when I'm supposed to be editing subtitles."

So I playfully mentioned what they'd done, offered to do it anyway because it was Halloween, and let it sit for two minutes.

Five minutes later, I'm no longer working on the horror movie; I'm working on Mr. Bean.

Life is good.

Yes, yes, I know

It's the world's biggest cop-out for a SCAdian to go to a Halloween party wearing garb. Yes, I know. I'm doing it anyway, 'cause I'm running on short notice here. So there.
