God Bless the Internet

My newest discovery: Workout videos on the Instant Play list on Netflix.

Seriously, it's amazing. I hook up my speakers to my computer, roll out my yoga mat, and go through 45 minutes of Slim and Sleek Fast, or Fat Burning Ab Attack. All from the comfort of my home, where no one will see just how pitifully out of shape my abs are. I do 2 sets of crunches and I'm in pain. Apparently, I will have a six pack in four weeks (hah, right).

Also, it's getting really beautiful here. Spring has arrived and we set our clocks forward tomorrow, so I might actually get to see the sun when I leave whatever basement I'm working in. This week I went running on the beach, and it was glorious. I'm really happy to have my foot back in working order so that I can get beach ready.

I need to get out of the city - I'm thinking of taking a trip to San Diego and Santa Barbara in a couple of weeks. Sundresses and flip flops - that's my ideal spring break.

Oh, and I'm playing the Bach B minor mass here tonight (sorry the pics are so small):

What's up, immune system???

Dear immune system,
I'm not really sure what I did to you to make me deserve this constant sickness, but seriously, I can't believe I'm sick for the FIFTH time this winter. I have pumped you full of vitamin C, I have exercised (maybe not as consistently as I would like, but no one's perfect), and I have treated my body kindly. Please, enlighten me as to what you want from me, because I really can't figure it out!!! I know I was stressed out this last week and I do appreciate you holding off the nasty runny nose until after my audition, but I think I've paid my sick dues for the entire year so far. Let's talk and see if we can't work something out- I want to get back to where we were last year, when things were good.
Thanks,
Amy
