my lovely feet

i've always complained about walking...for as long as i can remember anyway. but nowadays i take walks that take me nowhere but bring me right back to the house eventually. recreational walks. not something that was in my vocabulary. something's changing. oh yeah, it's the weather. and also that i feel like i need to get some exercise everyday now that i don't really have time to go to the gym so far this week. and a walk feels good. really good. even though somehow i just walked 15 minutes away from the house and then came back in a little over ten via a route i haven't been along before, by the river. did i mention that it's a beeeeaaaaauuuutiful day? a day to be happy about. i love those.

anyway, my real point abt mentioning the walk was that i need shoes. like proper walking shoes. it's going to be summer soon and i'll be doing a lot more walking i think. for which you need proper shoes. as much as i love my sneakeresque aldo shoes that i bought last summer (they're all scuffed from overuse and i can't find any of my shoe polishes since i moved), i miss the new balances that i lost. and i think it's time to get a new pair. i can't wear my cross trainers outside cuz i use them for gym. this is a perfectly good excuse to get a new pair of running shoes. yes, it'll mean that it's going to be yet another tough month on the visa (i'm sure the visa ppl are laughing right now...but they don't realise that i'm one of those ppl who pays off their visa bill every month), but i deserve it. especially after the fabulous job i did on my chapter-3 today. it's not done, but i achieved my 10 double-spaced pages goal (which i was hoping would be the entire chapter, actually). one whole section still left, and also the intro and conclusion, but that's for tomorrow cuz i hit the limit about 6 hours into writing. a reward is in order.

so i was watching the mom show today on the life network and they were talking about helping your kids with homework. i know, i know...i don't have any kids, and by the time i have them and have to help them with their homework, if ever, i'll not even remember this show. but it freaked me out a little. i'm going to have to do homework when i'm done with all my own education?! nooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! does it never end???

i'm sure that's not the worst it gets with kids.
