My Apologies

My apologies for not making an entry here in over a week. It's been a while since I lapsed like this. At the very least, I could have made a small entry of some trivial bit of information. But alas, I didn't. I guess it's been a combination of laziness, procrastination and other things swirling around in my life that has kept me from making an entry.

I'm still dealing with what I think are minor bouts of anxiety which I think I will need to bring up with my doc when I see him next. I think I will be seeing him towards to end of the month to go over some blood tests I'm having done next week. *sigh* We'll see what happens with that.

To some degree I've been thinking about the holidays. I plan on going down to Boston to visit the folks this year. However, the question is: how do I get there? Right now, airfare is pretty high. I'm looking at over $700 round trip for a direct flight. The alternative would be to drive. But I have never driven that distance on my own. I'm sure I could do it. Anyway, the holidays are more than a month away. I think I've still got time to figure this out.

This weekend, I will be having some friends over for hot pot. The weather is getting cooler and this is a great way to have friends over, have some good food and conversation and not really cook for them. :) Essentially, everyone will be doing the cooking themselves. It's usually fun. Hopefully, I will be able to crack open a couple of bottles of wine.

I'm hoping to go to my cardio class tomorrow morning. It's been a couple of weeks since I last went, so I feel like quite the slacker. And I really need to get the blood flowing and burn some calories. At the same time I really need to keep an eye on my heart rate. I think my instructor is being more conscious since that one girl went down at the beginning of this session. I believe it was because of high blood pressure. I think I should be fine as long as I am taking my meds (which I have been lax about on occasion) and pace myself. And I really need to make sure I pace myself because it's very easy to overdo it and not realize it until it's too late.

Anyway, gotta get some stuff done today. I'm planning on meeting up with some friends downtown for a pint and some food.
