Date with a treadmill


In a brilliant move I picked up a towel at the dollar store on my way to the gym as opposed to paying double at Walmart...yay me! I did forget one more vital piece of equipment on my trek back to the gym yesterday....my ipod shuffle. The picture is one of the new colours but mine is blue.
The treadmill was totally monotonous without my mp3 player. I looked at the readout, then the wall clock and back and worth until I could take no more. I lasted 30min at a quick walk. I want to start running on the treadmill but yesterday I wasn't feeling it. Tried a couple of the bikes and then just called it a day. The elliptical wasn't calling my name either.
I'm going back tonight and I've got the trusty Ipod with me.
Watched Survivor last night, it was alright. I couldn't get over the girl from New York who commented that being there was nothing like NY. Ah...duh...what where you expecting a deli around the corner. She couldn't handle how positive people were being...oy vey is all I can say. Aaron the surfer dude is nice eye candy but apart from that we'll see how long I watch this. I do like that it's in China, that's a nice change.
Finally getting together with H on the weekend, we haven't seen each other in months so it's a get together at Starbucks with textbooks.
I definitely need to put my patio set away this weekend, there was frost on the ground this morning and I might as well do it now rather than when there's snow.
This weekend I'm also going to make another recipe from ESBM or WW to add to the rotation of Smackeroni and Chili.
The other thing I realized after the gym yesterday is I need to plan my dinners carefully on gym nights or else by the time I get home I'm ravenous and far more likely to snack.
I hope everyone has a great Friday!

ohmygosh. I've skipped many a workout because I left my iPod at home. I might be a bit too dependant on the thing!

I have come home too many times from the gym and just eaten whatever I could get my hands on in less than 10 seconds. I need to start doing some planning too!
