shanmonster: (Lost in a velvet morass)
Today I changed my workout routine a bit. Instead of doing two sets of twelve on the weights, I'm doing three sets of ten. I feel a big difference. I also switched my tricep pulldowns from an M-bar (I think that's what it's called) to a rope. I had to lower the weight significantly, when I did this. Yeowch! My workout was cut short by a prior commitment. f00 and I met with Kathryn in order to do a photoshoot.

We took a bunch of photos at the extremely creepy old Fredericton hospital. We were in the dimly-lit, dank service tunnels and corridors. Hopefully, some of those shots will turn out nicely. Afterwards, we did a series of pictures inside the Cathedral. I'd never been in there before. It's gorgeous. The Catholics really know how to pile on ostentation to a wondrous degree. The handicrafts are beautiful, from the hand-tatted lace wall-hangings to the handcarved stone baptismal font. The stained glass cast beautifully-tinted light down on us, and I felt like I was a brightly-coloured particle inside God's kaleidoscope.

I'm really not certain what's going on tonight. Girl Jodie is coming over, and we might barbeque some chicken then watch The Wizard of Oz. I haven't seen it in years, and I've also had a hankering to read the novels again. I remember reading them as a child, and finding them deliciously creepy. I know I greatly enjoyed reading Wicked a few years back.

In other news, I have a bright red crop of new bruises courtesy of Dabney in kung fu, last night. Ouchies.

If you're talking about the Christ Church cathedral downtown, it's Anglican, not Catholic. Anglicans must also know a thing or two about ostentation, I guess ;)

Well, they're pretty much Catholics, sans Pope...
