on the plus side, i found a new skein of yarn in the closet yesterday

* I have been full of so many miscellaneous aches and pains this week and I do not care for it! I was supposed to compete in an open water swim this weekend (MY FIRST :( ) but I did something to my rotator cuff and the chronic swimming injury I have thereabouts flared up, so I have spend most of Friday through today icing it and being sad. Ugh! It is just super disappointing, and a little bit embarrassing. I was really excited to do this! I put it on my 101 in 1001! DDDD: It's not like there is all this wasted training, at least, because other than a few extra heads-up drills (for buoy spotting!) I didn't alter my usual swimming routine that much - the race was 1.2 miles (~1950 m), and I usually swim between 2000m and 2500m. GRUMBLES, basically.

* As a side effect of all the icing, I have been mainlining tv like nobody's business. I finished season one + season two of Luther (ksdjfdsafhkjddfksads), Sherlock (my oncoming Martin Freeman's Face problem :( ), and started Downton Abbey. I want moar Luther for forever, though, even if its villains are always the creepiest motherfuckers ever. *curls into a ball*

* My sister's wedding (for which I am the maid-of-honor, or as my sister called it when she asked me, "the girl person") is in under two weeks, eek. I still need to find shoes + write a toast to give in front of like a hundred and fifty people, NBD.
