Friday Five, Simple day
I decided I would do the Friday Five for the first time ever
Could be something interesting to look back on, so, why not.
1. What was the last TV show you watched?
The last TV show would probably be Real World/Road Rules challenge, and the last movie was Jerry Maguire.
2. What was the last thing you complained about?
It was either to my mother about how my father has been moaning all day from being "sick," or to Matt when I was playing SWG and I couldn't find any mobs to kill.
3. Who was the last person you complimented and what did you say?
I told T-Fee he was a very pretty kitty
4. What was the last thing you threw away?
An empty bag of Reese's eggs, which was some of the Easter candy that my mother got me the otherough.
5. What was the last website (besides this one) that you visited?
Muted.com, a site I rediscovered last night (I thought it had closed for some reason) and where I got the idea to do the Friday Five from.
Anywho... on to my rather boring day. I had actually intended on going for a walk, had really honestly meant to, but when I stepped on the porch I felt a few droplets of rain fall on me. I looked up at the sky, and it was cloudy and it was darker than it should be for 1PM. That pretty much decided for me that I would just fiddle around in the garage on my mother's exercise equipment. I only worked my arms (it didn't cross my mind to really work my legs until I was inside the house.. I seem so absent minded recently) and I did not even do that for very long. Possibly for about 15 minutes or so... I did it until my arms were aching, and then did 30 after that point, just so there'd actually be some benefit to it, but no pain tomorrow. I probably should have done it longer, but I can just never force myself to feel bad like that
I wonder how other people can possibly exercise, since it's got to be straining them and making their muscles ache during it (or maybe I just have the wrong definition of what effective exercise is?)... I try to do the same thing and I just can't. I suppose I'm just weak.
I'd much rather ride a bike than I would go for a walk or hang in the hotp" oelly garage (that has a large assortment of bugs as well... a trapped bee scared the hell out of me while I was doing my arms when it buzzed by my ear angrily) but my father, being the intelligent man he is, gave all of our bikes away when we had not used them for a year. Not like the garage was full and he needed the room they were taking up... he just started cleaning and decided to do something stupid. And I really don't feel like investing in a bike now. So, blah... no real choice in the matter.
I fed the axies today. I did it in the kitchen, so my mother could watch, because even though she still insists their hideous, she always seems so interested and giddy when they swim around and eat. I noticed that Cayenne's tail has like, two rather large bite marks in it, which are from Kasey. I should probably move them to a bigger container soon (even though I don't want to - I hate the next sized container I have here) but I know the nips are primarily due to me forgetting to feed them for almost a full 48 hours a couple days back. Whoops. It was the first time I honestly just forgot about them. Hopefully I won't do it again.
Herbie also seems to be getting darker in color. Before, she was noticeably brown. A very dark, chocolate brown, but still brown. I looked at her today, and she's literally almost black. I have no idea if that's a good thing or not, but I'm just going to take it as a good sign... when I ordered her, I had requested "the darkest one they could find", and it's cool she's starting to really live up to that. But ehh, either way...
I spent about an hour or more reading my old entries from October 2000, and I'm jealous that I had more of a life to write about back then. It's not as easy as it looks to stretch 15 minutes of working out and an hour worth of axolotl feeding into 4 sizeable paragraphs.
