Good Things

I got up early today and did Pilates before work. I'm out of shape, but I feel pretty good for doing it.

Driving over the Charles on the way to 128, and marveling on how beautiful our hood can be: Watch Factory on the river, Mt. Feake Cemetary on the other side, colored leaves all over.

Had a good, interesting meeting. It makes getting there for 7:30 AM a bit less painful.

It's Friday, and we're seeing friends tonight for pizza and Clone Wars. I may even bake some cookies after work to bring along if I'm motivated. Yay baking! Or maybe I'll just buy something schmancy from the bakery a couple of blocks down.

Wearing a funky scarf today that I bought at my first Dragoncon inside the little Asian store that used to be along the walkway between the Marriott and the mall that connected to the Hyatt. I'm not a big scarf person, but this reminds me of the magic of that first year (kind of like the silk scarf I got in Como reminds me of the magic of that day, and being on the shores of Naboo).

Excitement for fall activities: NEG/AB events, halloween, foliage, walking through seaport town faires, pumpkins and apples and that kind of thing.

The yummy homemade black bean/veggie stew, just waiting for me to heat it up for lunch. With the last of the pumpernickle bread from Russos.

I have a video cued up on my laptop, so I just have to roll out of bed and make it to the geek room (which doubles as our exercise room). The one I have is http://www.amazon.com/Pilates-Beginning-Workout-Ana-Caban/dp/B00005M1XE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1255008828&sr=8-2 . I bought it years ago at the Discovery Channel store (along with another yoga video) and haven't tired of it yet.

I tend to be a morning person naturally, so though getting up at 5 am is tough, it's easier for me than being motivated after work to do these things. Getting them out of the way is nice.

I just ordered this and threw a couple in my wishlist so that if I like it, I can try a couple others. Thanks for the recommendation; I'll let you know how it goes! And if I get the others and like them, I'll pass the info along as well. :)
