PO Box

what's cheaper than a gym but gets you exercising? get a po box near where you work, within walking distance and then get your mail sent there. i pay about $6/month to force myself to walk 1.4 mi at least once a week. without that i think i'd be a noodle. and i have to get the mail since important stuff does come every now and again.

Envy

i confess that i am envious of two friends who ride bikes well enough to actually participate in events. i've never been good at bicycling and this past quarter i certainly haven't even come close to keeping in shape. if i ever do decide to take up biking i might do it by joining a team to go on a ride through team in training. apparently you get coached to do some momentous event and all you have to do is raise money for a good cause. i could get behind that. plus then i would get a more rapid rise to competency with the aid of professional coaching. yup i believe you work harder with someone telling you to work harder.

Post-Pre-Thumb Hole

i finished the thumb hole and then made it all the way to the end, even knitting my final row and binding off. but i'm going to undo it. the thumb hole needs to be bigger. i thought about just leaving it because i can make it work but i think i'll be happier if i just redo that part. so here's some pictures before taking it apart.
