Cardio 5/week: so far this week => 3

Sick Day
I’m taking a sick day today, staying home. I’m running a fever (based on chills/sweats experience, didn’t actually dig out the thermometer) and suspect I just may need a day at home to take care of myself a bit.

Goal-Setting
I am not very good at setting goals for myself. I surf through each day. There are some advantages to that — I could argue it’s very zen, that it’s being non-controlling. But I think the truth is that I’ve just never quite gotten my head around the whole notion of setting goals and organizing [...]

Saturn’s Day
Oh, it’s dark. Where has the sun gone? And the forecast for all of the coming days on the weather maps are dark, dark, dark.
