I want a shirt, because one of their logos is the mudflap girl wearing rollerskates.\n<p \/><\/li>\n<li>I&#8217;m so proud of my workouts lately. I&#8217;m working on endurance now, so I do an hour at a moderate pace instead of 30 minutes, pushing hard. &#8216;Moderate&#8217; is a challenge for me, in exercise as in life. I tend to follow the advice of one of my old instructors: push to the point of exhaustion, and then push a little past it.\n<p \/>Which brings up a good point: lots of people seem to not realize that fatigue is just a part of the energy cycle, not the end of it. Slow down and push through it. That&#8217;s my bit of personal-training advice for today.<\/p>\n<p \/><\/li>\n<li>The Y took down their heavy bag. I was punching the hell out of it yesterday, and now it&#8217;s gone. I am so not down. I&#8217;m not a big believer in violence, but I will, however, dedicate these bruised knuckles to you, beeyatch.\n<p \/><\/li>\n<li>I am also very proud of myself for having put aside $4000 this month. This took some restraint (see above re: moderation). To celebrate, I went on a shopping spree. No, wait! With other money, I mean; this bunch has been earmarked for the bitter income-taxation.\n<p \/>My favorite purchase is the cutest pair of Vans ever, black with an orange stripe. So me.<\/p>\n<p \/><\/li>\n<li>The outlet mall up in the DMZ between here and St. Cloud is growing virally. Mostly that&#8217;s scary, but they <i>do<\/i> now have a Carhartt store.

Insert goofy polaroid here.\n<p \/><\/li>\n<li>Saturday night, we had a movie premier on this here new computer. Surround sound and all that shiznit. It&#8217;s such a stupid novelty for me. I&#8217;m convinced I will never need to own a TV, though. I gots all my DVD-lovin&#8217; right here.\n<p \/>Granted, you have to lay on my bed in this particular theatre, but whatever.
