Normal day... got up at seven to be at the pool at 8.30, swam - worked on push-offs and freestyle arms - then used the free time before my next class to browse around the Reitz store with all the Gator gear. Didn't buy anything, but saw a couple of shirts I'd like when my money gets here. Then had LIN 3201 (homework was postponed until Wednesday!), then TESL, then anthropology, then came back home. Chatted with Martin via webcam and Skype (new software which works just like a telephone, only free), then went to Old Navy and Publix. Found a sale on the Old Navy long-sleeved stretch shirts I love so much - $11 a pop - and so bought three. Figured that would be a good way to wind up Mom's and my shopping spree this weekend, consisting of three bras, a jacket, seven shirts, and three pairs of pants. (Hey Mom, know which shirt we forgot which will go well with those American Eagle pants? The magenta stretch one!)
Then went to Publix, which finally had milk again, and, along with the usual salad and meringue cookies and SmartOnes dinners, bought a box of strawberries. That's one fruit which I can choke down as long as there's sugar or whipped cream or something alongside it, so I had that for dessert tonight. And then I came upstairs and sat down in front of the computer, and that's my day in a nutshell.
Oh. Or not. Did I mention that I rode my BIKE to Publix - a round-trip distance of about six miles - after having swum 500 yards this morning and 1000 last night with Natasa? Well, I did. That wasn't really the problem, but when you combine BIKING UPHILL with POURING RAIN with TOO MANY BAGS TO FIT IN JESS'S BACKPACK, then I start to get a little cranky. And then when a car comes by and splashes a wave of water all over me, then I really get angry. I hope they didn't hear what I shouted at them. (But I was rather proud of my spur-of-the-moment system of using my bike lock to lock my extra bags to the handle of my backpack. It was impossible to bike with them on the handlebars. Only, a gallon of milk was in that backpack, too. So my shoulders were dying. I need a massage.)
Oh well... at least I got to use my raincoat. :)
