This is where I'm going to be on Thursday--Niagara Falls. I love the Falls, and I've been there so many times I've lost count. My friend, Reilly, however will be seeing them for the first time, so I'm excited about that. I'm mesmerized by moving water, for some reason. Anyone else feel this way?

Weigh in day today and I was down 2.5 pounds, which means I've lost 12 pounds. Woot!!! Yay!!!!!! *Happy Dancing*

I forgot to mention that I went to the doctor's on Thursday about my Achilles tendons. I, inauspiciously, have Achilles tendinitis. How mundane. I'm supposed to ice it after I work out, put heat on it twice a day, and take two Aleve twice a day. The doctor I saw (who was not my regular GP) pointed out that this injury was caused by exercising too much too soon. Yeah, piss off. At least I'm moving, you know?

I've decided to sign up for a watercolor painting class. And I got some books out of the library to try to learn how to draw. I'll be shocked if I can ever produce something that resembles an actual object, but hey, it makes me happy.

I've also downloaded a lot of my favorite photos from Flickr and put them on my computer's slideshow as well as my iPod. I'm making every effort to surround myself with things that feed my soul. And I feel so much better for it!
