Today was an exciting day...I left the building. My first big adventure included going to the post office to pick up a gift my uncle sent to me. It was supposed to arrive a week before Christmas, but it didn't and then I was in the suburbs for 9 days. By the time I got back, my mailbox was too full for it to fit into and I received one of those notes indicating I needed to pick it up; well then the flu happened all week and finally today I was able to collect my gift and put this saga behind me. It was a very active morning! Then I decided to workout for the first time in almost 2 weeks and dry heaved quite a bit...my lungs weren't used to the activity. It's amazing how easy it is for your body to become accustomed to doing absolutely nothing. So clearly after my 30 minute boot camp cardio workout, I needed a 2 hour nap.
My second big adventure of the day was meeting up with a couple of friends to go see a movie downtown. We saw "Up in the Air", starring George Clooney, which was about a lonely guy who was about to earn 10 million frequent flyer miles who fires people from their job. It was actually a really good movie that made me appreciate the fact that I have loved ones that I look forward to chatting and visiting with. The strangest part of my day was participating in a debate about whether or not to feel sorry for mothers who abandon/kill their babies. I argued against feeling sorry for them given the Safe Haven law and the basic being against murdering other humans aspect. We agreed to disagree.
So there you have it. Wasn't the most exciting day, but given the past few days, I'll gladly take my two adventures and keep them.
