New Year, New Me

Happy New Year!!!!

I'm all excited because I have lost 3 pounds since I started going back to the gym. I had a job interview today (it went well!), I finished watching Babylon 5, all 5 seasons (cried like a baby all through 'Sleeping in Light'), I had my first job interview in almost 10 years today and it went well!

I started back regularly at the gym last month, and if I'd watched my eating habits- well, #1 it wouldn't be the holidays, and #2 I'd have more to show for it. But, my dietary habits are improving (yes, that means that all my holiday munchies are gone) and my exercise is continuing - I do water aerobics at the gym- form counts for SO much. I used to just do the exercises and not worry about form, and I could do an hour class without a problem. Now, I worry about form, and all of the sudden these exercises are HARD! But, that's a good thing.

My job interview was with a temp agency I used to work for, and I really loved temping. I just hadn't had to try for a job in a long time, and so I was nervous. I had worked out with Erin (Kangaroo Regina) what to say for the hard questions (I've never been so prepared for an interview, she's great!) and they never came up. The good news about that is that if they come up from a posting, I know what to say, so they can't trip me up!

My Christmas present from my parents this year was all five seasons of 'Babylon 5.' Oh, I could rhapsodize for hours about B5. I was surprised at how many episodes I missed while it was airing regularly. I liked Sinclair and Talia for the first time, loathed Mr. Bester and Byron as usual, and loved everyone else (well, Lyta falls from my good graces when she takes up with Byron, but I still love her), Marcus, Oh, my Marcus- I do adore my Marcus. *sniff* Anyhoo- I cried so hard during the very last episode of the series that I had to pause and rewind three or four times to get it all. Wah, it ended. Even the gag reel couldn't cheer me up properly (and there was some funny stuff on it.)

So, I plan to post about once a week this year- keep me honest!
