much better mood today...
Because I did 5 miles on a stationary bike! Woo Woo! And sit-ups and free-weights! I'm so proud of myself for doing 5 miles, I've only done 5 once before. I'm totally high on the endorphins right now. Much better then a sugar or caffeine high, because there's no jitters and no crash afterwords. And my Dad totally came through for me today. I had to go to the doctors again to get blood tests done, which is pretty much number one on the list of things I hate doing. Needles are seriously evil, I swear. Anyway, my Dad took me there, and came with me into the room were they take blood. Having me there calmed me down a whole lot. Honestly, he looked like he was more scared of the needle then I was! That made me laugh, and then it was just over. I felt this huge sense of relief when it was over. I think waiting for something you don't like to happen is worse then actually going through it. Then when it happens, your just like, oh, was that it? That was easy! Other examples of this: algebra finals, cross-country plane rides, and job interviews. So, after the blood test, we went to this really amazing brunch place. I had the best eggs Benedict of my life, and this really good watermelon iced tea thing. Not exactly constructive for losing weight, but I didn't even care. I was hungry! They make you fast before you can do blood tests. I'm glad i worked out though. I probably didn't burn it completely off, but still. baby steps!
