Went to the gym with the man, ran/walked 3.3 miles. Go me! This is after yesterday's loooong workout. My knee was acting up so I kept having to take walk breaks, but then I did some sprinting at the end and my knee doesn't hurt when I run fast, just when I run 5.5-6 mph. Weird. Now he's making me a yummy lunch, because he's AWESOME. Soba noodles and tofu.
Last night I ate lots of guacamole and chips at the restaurant, plus a glass of wine (even though I told myself and the man very clearly that I would NOT drink.) I did anyway. Poo on me. I was hanging out with a bunch of strangers, and it just felt better, and easier to ramble on about my vegan-ism, with a little liquor in me. It's alright though. I feel good today, and I won't drink tonight since I have an audition tomorrow. Tonight I'm going to the animal shelter for the volunteer orientation. We have to pay $25 to volunteer, which sucks, but if I stay there and like it and make friends and feel good helping all the animals, it will be worth it. I've wanted to volunteer my time for awhile now, and I think this is just the perfect way, with my passion for animal welfare. The hours should be flexible, and since I don't have a day job, I'll probably be available when other people are not. It will be nice to have something else to focus on besides auditioning during this time, something that doesn't cause stress (hopefully), and will give me some exercise, if I get to take the dogs out for walks. I really hope I like it, and the people are cool. It would be cool if the man could do it with me, but he's allergic to cats, so it's not the best job for him, although he has the same love of animals as me.
I'm on a coffee high right now. Definitely had a bit too much. For the rest of the day, I need to study my music for tomorrow, look at Adele's music, do Jillian Michaels level 2, and leave by probably about 5:30 to make sure I get to the shelter by 7.
