Another cold?!

Sunday, February 8th 2009

Dangit, I feel worse today - i thought yesterday just feeling crappy was due to the dried out sinuses. I guess I caught something. I took a nap this afternoon and feel better after that.

I'm making some various flavored oils. I have an Ancho oil going & a red pepper oil going. The Ancho oil just needs to cool at this point and then be strained, but the red pepper oil has about 30 more minutes to go. I also have an orange vinegar going in my fridge.

Now I just wish I didn't feel li...

Oye.

Had my first cooking class today. I wasn't sure what to do about food - they say that lunch is a part of the course, but I didn't know what that meant. So, I took a few power bars and went to class. It took *forever* to get there on the subway this morning - I should have been super early - what normally takes 15-20 minutes took over an hour. It was nuts.

But, the class went well. The instructor is an actual chef who has a restaurant. He clearly has a passion for food - which is always hel...

mmm. Sleep.

Friday, February 6th 2009

I slept last night, and it was goooooood. I decided to make it an off night as my body was pretty tired and i didn't sleep much on Wednesday night. My shin splints don't hurt that much today - just an occasional amount of pain, so I think I'm going to do c25k tonight or tomorrow.

I have my cooking class starting tomorrow. Kind of nervous about it, but It'll be okay. I just need to remember to take some band-aid's because I have an amazing ability to cut my hands.

The deconstructed sand...

so, last night, i did a pseudo c25k night and p90 weights. i just wanted to see where i was at with running and see if i'd have shin splint issues with c25k. The session went really well, actually, my speed was really good. Although, started having shin splint pain towards the end, and today they hurt a bit. I've been working on doing the exercises for them that seem to help, and I'm going to make tonight an off night, so hopefully tomorrow I don't have pain. Going to try to do c25k tomorrow nig...

How to convince a foot

Wednesday, February 4th 2009

Now I have the arch supports for my running shoes, I've been trying to convince my foot to have an arch. I have flat feet. Super flat feet. Incredibly flat feet. The past few nights for p90, i've been wearing my running shoes getting my feet used to this, this morning, I walked in the park and wore them as well. I noticed that my foot on the right side hits a little differently because of them making it kind of uncomfortable. It was better about 1/2 way through the walk, and I think just wearing...
