Just Drink Plain Water

February already! I know, I know, I don’t update!

Last month, I celebrated my birthday. 31 is like seeing the other side of your childhood. For me, my 20′s felt like an extension of my teens. But with money (from working and stuff).

Now that I’m over that hump, it’s got me thinking and making changes. So, of course, I’ve set up some goals to be healthier and all of that. I’ve been using FitDay.com to track what I’ve been eating and how long I’ve been working out. It’s really helpful. And having to type in what you’ve been eating really makes you think about putting it in your mouth.

I received several nice gifts for my birthday including dinner ware (I like to throw parties), gift certificates to book stores and Target. My friend Erika sent me third season of Animaniacs! I’m looking forward to watching that. I also gifted myself Doctor Who Series Three. I have to go watch it for more Rosex10 fodder. It’s my ship and I’m sticking to it!

Hm, looking at that list, most of it is still fun stuff. I’ve been spending hours playing Lego Star Wars – The Complete Edition for the PS3. I KNOW that it’s basically a child’s game, but it’s so entertaining.

Since it’s Lent, I’ve given up all sweets and sugar. It’s hard. I realized today that with Valentine’s Day around the corner, everything on TV has been chocolate. Well, at least on the Food Network.

So with all this chocolate food porn, I’m just pretending my water is delicious chocolate-ly goodness. It’s better for me. Plus with all these post-31 goals, I’m going to stick to it.

My brain has been foggy, I think. The year is just starting to hit it’s stride. It just gets faster from here.
