It was nice to go back to the gym. I hadn't been there in a month because of scheduling and the flu from hell. I'm glad to report that I didn't have to drop any weights. However, I'm at my lowest weight in years: 133.5 pounds. Although I'm glad my little bit of fat is melting off, I want to bulk up my muscles. I guess I'll be making more protein shakes, hmm?
I went to the grocery store afterwards to restock my larder. I needed breakfast cereal. It's difficult to find a cereal which doesn't have sugar as one of its top ingredients. I finally settled on Carb Fit Special K and Alpen. I love Alpen. I've been eating it since I was a kid. I also bought some fresh strawberries and a couple bottles of pomegranate juice. Yum!
And now for a couple of links before I grab some lunch and do some dance isolation drills....
Water Everywhere, None To Drink? NASA May Have Answer: Think stillsuits from Dune (thanks, Doyce).
Sapphira: I think this was the first Middle Eastern dance clip I ever saw, back in 1997 or so. Check out the backbend and recovery. I can do the first part, but I'm not certain about the latter. I'll have to give it a shot.
IMAX theaters reject film over evolution: I recommend they just bleep out all the bits about evolution, and then the Southerners can still watch lots of IMAX explodey goodness without compromising their fundamentalism (thanks, Kat). I wonder if someone is working on reality filters for people, so you can bleep out things you don't want to hear or see? Hmmm.... I'd choose to filter out thick clotted cream and sugar, because I always want that with my strawberries.
Safety First: "Video captures a DEA agent who accidentally shot himself while conducting a presentation on gun safety." I saw this clip about two weeks ago. I'm impressed the guy was able to keep giving his presentation, but perturbed at his own personal gun handling skills.
Woman Kills Herself So Blind Sons Can See: Way to give the kids a complex, Mom.
Pet Pillows: Sorry you can't snuggle with your dog or cat after it dies? Now you can!
