running, volunteering, and all that

for someone who has nothing to do and has been really bored...i certainly have taken my sweet time finding constructive things to do with my abundant free time. but...i am proud to say that i have started running on bayshore a minimum of three times a week, and walking at least two. danielle and i are trying out a schedule called "from the couch to a 5k" which is interval running...very cool, but draining in the florida sun! it was pouring today, which was our walk day, so we were stuck indoors.

i also went back to the SPCA for the first time in months to volunteer, and had the best time. dogs are awesome. i have made a resolution to get back to volunteering at least once a week...probably on sunday afternoons.

it looks like i am very close to lining up a job, which is awesome. i'm going out in the field with a rep on friday to see how i like it. that should be really annoying for the poor rep! that's all i'm going to say about that, because i read an article saying that blogging, twittering, facebooking, whatevering about potential jobs can backfire, so i'll do a quick subject change.

i have become addicted to shows about fat people. this is not good. i never watch reality tv, but all of a sudden - all over 4th of july weekend - i got sucked in to two shows: "dance your ass off" and "ruby." i cannot believe it! i like ruby because she has a southern accent. i like "dance your ass off" becuase i like seeing the drastic results from show one to the finale. and also because the people can dance better than me despite the fact that most of them weigh over 200 pounds! i cannot dance.

i can, however, watch fat people dance their asses off on tv from the comfort of my couch.
