I broke the short and sweet rule yesterday, so I'll try to make up for it today.

Went on a small cleaning spree this morning. Met Fern at her apartment around at 2ish and we went to the YMCA for a workout. We were both desperate for some physical activity and getting back on track for our overall fitness goals. Both of us have expressed a desire to reach a new level of fitness, and we were making steady progress before all the pigging out and inactivity surrounding Christmas put a temporary stop to it. At the gym, I spent about an hour on stationary bikes and 15 minutes or so in the circuit training/weight room.

After working out, we drove to The Benchmark outdoors supply store to reserve some snowshoes for tomorrow's adventure with Leah and David. Then we satisfied our craving for Asian food at Oriental Express. We both had General Tsaos Chicken-tasty! Then it was on to Rite Aid to pick up some necessary house hold items. Finally, we spent a half an hour or so at the Flying M. I read a few pages of a Carl Sagan book over a mocha, and Fern did some knitting.

For our evenings activity, we went to my apartment and watched a little TV, as well as most of The Borne Identity (which Eric had gotten as part of the trilogy of Borne movies for Christmas). Then there was a little more quality time spent together before I bid Jennifer goodnight.
