Today (well, yesterday, it's past midnight) was probably one of the better Saturdays I've had in a while - I spent it mostly with myself and interchangeably with Kyle (new roommate), but accomplished a lot!

I woke up early - not as early as I had planned, but early enough - and got an essential load of laundry done, then geared up for my 6-mile run despite the threat of snow around noon.

Well, there was no snow, but there was a lot of cold wind and freezing temperatures, which made it not the worst run I've ever had, but certainly not pleasant. I believe there were points where I literally said aloud, "Please stop!" to the cruel, cruel gusts of wind that overtook me as I ran uphill in Prospect Park. Then I felt my legs turn to rubber in the last mile and part of my brain shut down just so I could make it home on autopilot. And then I couldn't walk for the rest of the day.

Okay I can walk. Just not without some pain...

Anyway then I had a nice lunch, took a nap (a novel activity for me... I hate naps) and worked on updating marcialeichter.com for the rest of the afternoon and evening - made me a little bit of money.

Then it was time for Arrested Development! I don't think I've mentioned this on my blog yet but I'm very much into it right now. I know there will be people who will scoff at how late in the game I am, and how back when it was on television I didn't watch it, but I don't really like watching shows during the height of their popularity. Besides now that it's on DVD I don't have to wait a week between each episode.

I've finished Season One - I'm about to get into bed and start Season Two.

Oh I should also mention that I called Sam, my Australian friend, and we chatted for a good chunk of time. I can't comfortably say that I'm still mad at him about the holidays - because I don't necessarily think that my reaction is all due to him alone - it was good to talk to him again as it had been a while. Still kind of wish I'd seen him though.

Okay good night-
