Watching: It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. I kept hearing of it, but not about it, and it turns out that it's the perfect comedy for me. So much snark. SO MUCH. I love it. And I watch too much of it. I also restarted watching Veronica Mars, because it was one of my favourite ever shows (once again, snark factor comes into play), and if you didn't hear about the Veronica Mars Kickstarter campaign, GET ON IT! They exceeded the $2 million goal in only 1 day. If we keep going, they're going to make a terrific movie! I'm just waiting for the negotiations about opening the campaign up to non-US residents, so that I can make my contribution (and get my digital download and copy of the script! For $35! WORTH IT). Also, Veronica and Logan end up together or we riot. RIOT I SAY. actually rewatching the first episodes when he's SUCH an asshole is really so enjoyable. Oh, Logan. We will come to love you. But it's going to take some time (and some mellowing).

Laughing about: My first Zumba class the other night! I haven't taken an exercise class since the 9th grade, so to "dance" in front of a bunch of people was an intimidating thought. The class was only about 20 people, and while I definitely didn't get all the steps (is that step turn step step? Or step step turn step jump?) I threw myself into it, had fun, and sweat a LOT, which was the point. I'm glad to know that I have an alternative to running for my cardio requirements, at least for one day a week! And it's good fun and the right amount of endurance for an asthmatic like me. So three cheers for looking really stupid and not caring.
Listening to: I always forget how embarrassingly honest I answer these things *sigh*. Alright, I've been listening to a lot of Katy Perry while I model build at work lately. Apparently I have a pop deficiency. I was never a Katy Perry fan (wouldn't really call myself one now, either) but I watched the Katy Perry documentary, really just looking to see if they would deal with her religious upbringing and history as a christian rock singer. They did, and actually I found the movie really humanized her for me, and made her more than a tabloid figure; it made her totally relatable. And really, I never found her music bad, just really really shallow. I still do, but damn if it isn't fun to work to. And I work out to Britney Spears (except for Zumba class, which hilariously included Gagnam Style), so there you have it. Colour me guilty.
Working on: Designing some brooches for Premonitory Dreams, and my stick-shift driving skills!
Wishing: I had a chai latte. I am a simple creature.
Haha, I always laugh so much doing Zumba. I have a blast, but I have AWFUL rhythm and I always mess everything up but it's alright. It's a personality trait I've long accepted. ;)
ReplyDeleteOh my god I have never felt so uncoordinated in my life!! But I move as hard as I can, and I think that makes it still count as a workout, and not just flailing.
DeleteI was the same my first (and only) time trying out a zumba workout class! But reading that I might not be the only one who feels soo uncoordinated is making me reconsider trying again. haha
DeleteI've been reading Blog Inc too, it's a pretty good book. I haven't read fiction in ages, I've been super into marketing books lately. Also, hell yeah It's Always Sunny! Love that show. <3
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit further into Blog Inc now, and I'm reaaaally enjoying it! Such interesting insights, and I love the interviews.
Deleteso funny i always hated brussel sprouts too until i had a non-mushy one. although i never make them now. way to go in zumba not caring! i am the same way and just go for fun and a workout and love it (or loved last summer i should say). hope you had a safe drive!

It's horrible when he (Logan) smashes her car. Later on in the series he calls it foreplay.
ReplyDeleteForeplay? Hah, oh Logan, you little rascal, you.
DeleteCongrats on the Zumba!! Something I have never been brave enough to do! Aaaaaaand I was one those weird kids that loved brussel sprouts. LOVED them. Still do. You should try cooking them with some brown sugar too. Super good. :)

I've been the same with books lately. I had been very frustrated with how uninterested and unenthusiastic I've been about reading BUT as soon as I tried a few non-fiction books, I regained my interest in reading. And here I thought non-fiction was not really my thing...
