flexagonToday I feel maybe more like this, despite Sundays always being a little depressing in terms of work (again the weekend did not magically provide enough time for me to do everything I wanted to do).
I've had a satisfying time prioritizing the gym, email, snail mail and getting rid of stuff though; feeling more caught up on life. There's been lots of chatter with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
norwoodbridge, lots of playing The Witness with heisenbug and, perhaps most amazingly, Hypercube and Nala actually snuggled on Saturday.
(In honor of getting rid of stuff, btw, here's a pretty hilarious send-up of Marie Kondo, in case anyone else has read The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up.)
I did Turkish get-ups at the gym on Saturday, in accordance with my 2016 goal of trying to catch up toheisenbug on them. I didn't feel like lugging the weights very far, so I moved some benches aside and hung out in the free weight area boosting a 35-lb weight three times and a 40-lb one twice... nobody was smiling or meeting my eye and I thought maybe I was in the way, so I put on my game face and moved when I was done. But, back in the bodyweight area, a cute girl caught up to me and said I was amazing, and that her partner had pointed me out to her. I volunteered to teach both of them the TGU next weekend and she took me up on it. :) Annoying or not, perhaps I'll start a fad?

I felt like the weekend was too short also. My lawn and yard look great though, and I hope my bananas start being more productive now that I cut them back a bit.
