Be the Change

tuesday

Okay, now this is more like it! I got lots of work done today! Ah, how I love these productive days!

I even managed to get outside and walk for about 10 minutes. (Hey, every minute counts, right? And there's a heat warning today, so I shouldn't be out too much anyway)

I challenged myself as part of "Invalid Item"  to get out and walk every day this week, and to not drink any soda for one week. It's been a little tough, actually.

Do any of you have trouble explaining WDC to your friends and family? My husband wanted to know why I decided not to drink soda for a week. He said, "If you really want a soda, just have one? Are you trying to lose weight or something?" It's hard to say, "Well, I promised on a message forum that I wouldn't drink soda for a week."

I ended up explaining what I challenged myself to do, and explaining that there isn't any reward for it - it's just important to me to do it because I challenged myself to do it.

I do have some items that I've read that I really loved... but I'm not going to mention them here. The reason - They're going to be my Editor's Picks in next week's Comedy Newsletter! I'm the guest editor!

So instead, how about Lyric of the Day:

"November" by The Drama Club (listen to this song at www.myspace.com/thedramaclub)

We're the lonely, broken-hearted
We're still standing, it's not over.

Back to work!
