special k

at last! at chuffing long last! it’s taken me three days to post those entries! i’d even set up paypal membership to join od+, but it’s a real arse to even set up membership! they’ve docked a pound from my bank account already! fume. if fod takes another funny turn, i may be forced to join for real.. if not for me (unable to save entries) but for the lovely people who read this and are confronted by the ‘server error’ page everytime they want to leave a note. i’m not so keen, though.. joining od+ is like being enveloped into the bosom of middle america. shudder.

in other news.. i went swimming for the first time in about a year yesterday. i went with my mother (there’s not much for me to do now i’m back home) and we swam for about an hour. i took a real funny turn on the way out though.. i felt very dizzy and sicky and thought i was going to pass out. i think passing out would be an interesting experience, really, because i never had. i’m dead ‘ard, me. i blame it either on only eating a bit of special k and a banana and then over-exerting myself in the pool, or just general unfitness. i’m inclined to go with the latter. but i weighed myself today and i’d lost two pounds! woo!

oh yes, and we are at war. boo. since i’m reading politics at university, i feel a bit obliged to mention it.

After taking such a funny turn and losing weight I think you deserve to spend this evening on the sofa wrapped in a blanket watching films and eating ice cream.

Ryn: Sounds like a plan. Shall we say 8?

You’ve lost THREE if you include the one OD+ nicked! Don’t join… nooooo… join Afrodiary instead.

FOD always has these funny turns. I like to think it gives the place ‘character’, unlike horrid sterile OD-for-people-that-pay. I remember I went swimming and thought I’d finish on a ‘high’ and swam the last length as fast as I could. Then I climed out of the pool, gravity yanked all my muscles out, and I sat in the changing room for half an hour trying to see straight and not be sick.

Nearly passing out isn’t good, you should definitely eat more. Yes.

Mmm. Character is not the way I usually descibe it after half an hour of trying to leave a note. I’m impressed about the swimming – today I ate a disgusting amount of food and did no exercise. So I think I also deserve to spend the evening wrapped up on the sofa eating ice cream 🙂 much love xxxxxxxxx

Eek, if that’s what good, healthy exercise does to you, I’m glad I’m allergic.

Why does swimming have to be so hard though?
