One of the joys of city living is public transportation... Good for the planet, great for interacting with the mass, awesome for blog fodder. Here are a few of my experiences from yesterday evening (and yes, this was all in ONE leg of the commute):
A man roughly bumping into me to get on the bus ONE person earlier.
A person whose gender was unidentifiable... And not in the trannylicious way - in the unfortunate way.
A girl smacking her gum so loud I thought she was possibly having some sort of breathing issue.
Countless crimes of fashion. (sadly, none caught on camera)

Squat it Out
So I'm on a quest to get skinny/skinnier... Let's call it SkinnyFest 2009, shall we?
I'm meticulously counting calories, and have stepped up my workouts (stepped up = actually started working out again).
I lost 3 pounds last week (a PMS week, to boot!) and am hoping for at least 2 this week. I cheated like crazy over the weekend... Um, 3 hamburgers in 2 days = delish / terrible for SkinnyFest 2009. We'll see what I'm actually able to accomplish post-burger(s).
A girlfriend of mine, who also happens to be a fab running buddy, gave me some tips-n-tricks for firming up my rumpapotamus. (Now, I don't have the most defined tush in the world... my college roomies lovingly referred to me as Flat Ass. You see the need for firming/defining) Her advice? While watching tv, get up and do squats at every commercial break. Not full on scary squats, but the pulsing ones - in sets of 30. Allrighty, bring it on.
My first squat session was last night. During a 3 hour movie. With commercial breaks every 15 minutes. Whoah. My butt is gonna be awesome.

I Feel Goooood
You know the kind of morning where you wake up feeling (semi) refreshed, take a long shower, realize that your hair looks great and doesn't need any retouching, put on a cute outfit, get smiled at twice on your walk to the office, and get to work to find an elevator waiting for you?
That's my day today. I'm golden.
