Spring "Sleep" Break

This has pretty much been my position for the past week. Although I have arisen for some activity. For example, Vance and I went for a bike ride last weekend. Monday I finished reading Memoirs of a Geisha and did some Pilates. Tuesday I invited a friend from Ghana, Yawa, over for lunch ( I cooked some kickass pesto pasta) and we watched Rent. Wednesday I spent the morning on trains (Boy do I love them!!! Not really!) to arrive for lunch at my friend Dani's house. Her mom and dad are completely adorable. She'd let me steal them if I wanted! Oh, Congrats Dani! (She's our valedictorian.) We watched Crash which I had not seen and lounged. I do NOT agree with the Academy Awards on giving it the Oscar! Brokeback was duped! Then I enjoyed yet another train ride home. I can't complain though cuz I was laughing my butt off reading Sherraine Mackay's book Running with Swords. Today I went on a workout frenzy..Pilates..Power Yoga...Body Sculpting...and then what the hell, some more ab work. Maybe it was from the overall lack of activity for the week, but I had some serious energy. Now I'm limping around from too many squats, lunges and crunches. Oh how I love the pain. Yes, I'm a nut and a tad bit freaky! Tomorrow I will be going to makeup some hours at work, since I will be going to Russia in April! Then Vance and I are meeting Sherraine for dinner while she is in town competing in the fencing World Cup...which she is currently ranked #1. And Saturday Vance and I will go walk her compete here in Rome. I'm pretty excited! It'll be my first fencing competition viewing. I'll let you know how she does...til then...Ciao Ciao!!!
