Rainy day

It’s raining today. Which is weird because I made grilled cheese and tomato soup last night, which would be perfect rainy day food for today. Is that ironic?

I have a new laptop on order. I’m very excited. I got a great deal on it and it should be an improvement over what I had, not even meaning that the computer will start up, which is an automatic improvement.

I did a short run in the rain. I’m almost smiling!

I’m still doing walk/run intervals but the running is getting longer and with this cooler weather, it doesn’t feel too awful. If I lose some weight it will feel even better and yeah, I’m working on that. I find that eating more vegetables helps.

I had a discussion with a friend yesterday about avoiding things for fear of failure. I could write a long post about fear of failure and how it can hold us back, but I won’t. I will say that generally I don’t worry too much about it, but I know many who do. For me failure is a big part of life, but I generally find that the upside of trying your best trumps any fear of failure. At least career wise, though I’m still riding high on a successful audition…that I really didn’t want to take because I was tired of failing. I’m glad I did. Now I’m trying to incorporate that idea into my diet and exercise routine: tired of feeling like a loser so I just need to get back to it and I know I will succeed.

Typing on my phone is harder. That paragraph didn’t really make cohesive sense but perhaps you get my drift. If not I’m sorry. Perhaps a picture of a cat will help.

I never said it would be a good picture of a cat.

  1. Good for you going for a run. I hate running in the rain!

    What helps me lose weight is to eliminate the booze. Which sucks. 😉
