This week I finally went back to the gym after taking a month-long hiatus for various reasons. The cardio didn’t really faze me, but I am sore from the (meager) weights that I lift. Also, it appears that they’ve changed the radio station at the gym to some sort of lite soul station. Much as I do love the smoove grooves of Sade and the greatest hits of Pebbles<\/a>, they’re not really good for getting that workout blood pumping. I much prefer the brainless, 140-ish bpm dance music they played in February. Harrumph.<\/p>\n

Most hilarious thing Gus said this week: “Mommy, are my elbows heavy?”<\/p>\n

And speaking of fish, we had a pretty excellent (if too short) time in Florida. Gus liked SeaWorld, though he was a bit disappointed to discover that there was no place for him<\/i> to swim there. But the hotel pool<\/a> was really nice. It was hoooooooot at SeaWorld, though the orcas and manatees were really, really cool.<\/p>\n

So here’s a question for you: should I shave my head? No, this is not because of Natalie Portman<\/a>, though she is a cutie and I am so so so happy that the whole Star Wars fiasco hasn’t ruined her career. And actually I don’t really mean shave<\/i>, I mean just buzz it really short. I’ve never had hair that short before, and it seems enviably easy to deal with. On the other hand, I’m a wimp. And while my long hair is often a pain to deal with, I think it flatters me. And it’s been this long (with a retrospectively bad though blessedly short phase when I had a sort of long bob) for the better part of 20 yrs. And I might look like the opposite of a dalmatian: it’s getting pretty grey, but it’s hard to tell where the grey is: what if it’s in spots all over my head? Also, Gus might freak out.<\/p>\n
