I Do Not Have a New Year's Resolution

So suck on that, lady mags with January makeover obsessions.

However, on the subject of lady mags, I have started a new work out routine. It's Women's Health Ultimate Fitness Plan from 2008. And it's really, really hard. I did their cardio and strength thing two days ago, and the day after I basically fell out of bed and crawled to the remainder of my activities for the day. (Benefit of unschooling! You don't have to do anything if you don't really feel like it's physically possible!)

Anyway, that's the thing... that I'm doing... starting in early January.

Have you read any good books lately? I'm gonna be honest-- I'm getting real sick of The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. Yeah, yeah Tom Wolfe, you are a great experimental journalist of your :::generation::: and use a lot of :::colons::: (seriously, what's the deal with that??), but this book if effing repetitive and not that interesting. Acid, bus, Day-Glo, lather, rinse, repeat. And I know that I am not contractually obligated to continue reading a book that I don't enjoy, but I feel sort of duty-bound.

We'll see what happens. It's kind of bad when you find yourself getting jealous of other people reading other, more fun books. However, as with this stupidly hard Women's Health workout plan, I will keep trucking through 300 pages of Tom Wolfe. Because reading should totally be as hard as 45 minutes of interval running.
