Life, working out, life, repeat...

Skipped my workout on Friday because there was too much to do to get ready for this weekend. Multiple birthday parties, and just stuff to catch up on, and trying to make sure I have Christmas presents ready to go for when I meet with the fam on Thanksgiving.

Plan is to do another week of 15 minute runs, and then more or less stay at the workout level I was at last week. My shoulders have been hurting a little on and off, so I'm making sure I'm not going to push it too far.

Not a setback, I keep telling myself! :)

So when I'm not working or playing video games or working out or being sassy, I'm usually sleeping, but I'm also doing a year long challenge of writing 12 novels in 12 months. I'm on book 11 now, which is actually a memoir, which is a variant from me because I'm typically a fantasy author. But it's interesting to me, how much it turns out I have to say when I write. It's typically easier for me to write than talk. I have daily word goals that make this challenge a lot easier (my goal is for every book to be about 50,000 words, some are more, some are less) and I'm typically writing every other day for this book, because at one sitting I'm writing anywhere from 3000 to 4000 words. This is the book that I'm definitely sure won't be published, or really go any further than my computer, but it's still good for me to write it, I think.

In other news, just started watching Walking Dead with the fiance. I think I could do a whole post praising the writing, the pacing, the suspense, the cinematography, the character development, but I'll just sum up with: SO FRUSTRATED WE COULD ONLY WATCH THREE EPISODES TODAY.

This Thursday I'm taking a day off work to go to a community college near work to register for classes for the spring. Intro to computers, probably, maybe two classes if I think I can afford it, both time and money. I am a little concerned that this is going to be tough, but I'm also concerned that it's going to make it hard to keep up my current gym schedule; in that case, I'll probably have to start going before work, which will add a whole new list of problems to deal with, but it'll be worth it. I think. Routine helps with a lot. Just gotta be sure to keep things going fresh, too.

Blah scatterbrained post blah.
