everyday is day one

this weekend was: catching up on National Geographics, Glee, and loving the New Normal because it’s got Riley from National Treasure and because it’s about feelings; exploring new neighborhoods in the hopes of finding a new apartment; the most delicious sandwich I’ve ever had, and new Pink, DMB, Matchbox Twenty, and a surprising album from Jon McLaughlin; swapping clothes with friends; birthday parties, goodbye parties, and intense games of shuffleboard; more apartments tucked in the hills, coffee and a celebrity, bagels, and the Los Angeles Opera, the Two Foscari, and fancy dresses in ninety degree heat; delicious sandwiches from Grub, and politics, and the Master and everything that Joaquin and Amy and Philip have to teach us; Mario and blogging, and staying up past my bedtime.


 

Girl, please excuse me…

As I mentioned in my last post, I am lacking in some gym beats.

Luckily, after Lauren reiterated that I should listen to RadioLab (thanks again Jess for introducing me!) I have been listening away as I walk. Today I walked five miles, three of them home from M’s, and the time past so quickly because I was listening to a podcast about stress. Which, by the way, is intriguing — did you know if you are exposed to high levels of stress you will stop growing? Bodies are so cool.

OK enough on that. So Jeff and I sat down tonight after dinner to talk music. Jeff usually has the most recent radio hits mixed in with the gems from the last twenty years, so it was no problem to transfer some of those tunes to my computer, and BAM I have a new 2 hour and 30 minute gym mix, including, but not limited to:

* 10 Days Late – Third Eye Blind
* F*** You – Cee Lo Green
* Raise Your Glass – Pink
* All I Do is Win – DJ Khaled
* Uncharted – Sara Bareilles
* Caught Up – Usher
* Pump It – Black Eyed Peas
* Are You Gonna Be My Girl? – JET
* Get Out Of My Mind – Hootie and the Blowfish
* All or Nothing – Athena Cage

Monday 2 mile run, here I come.
