Here's my ingenious solution to the heinously bright fluorescent light in my new cube - a blue theatre lighting gel, found in the art room. It's lovely now.
But blue is definitely the color theme this week - I've had some bouts of loneliness that I know are normal, esp. since being so sick and bedridden - plus the shitty Chicago weather - and the that-time-of-the-month-ness, etc. - but there's just no getting around the fact that I want to be in a relationship, am ready for one, am willing to work on it, and really be in it, etc. (those are the great things I learned about myself in the last one), but it's harder than ever to meet eligible, sane, cute guys. That gets me down.
I'm going out with my friend M. tonight for rockabilly, and may see some folks outside of my normal pod, which is good. Then on Sat. I'm canvassing for Obama in Indiana with some other friends/acquaintances. All are good things. I will for sure meet my Habit #1 quota for the week in the next couple of days.
As for Habit #2, I did 5 pushups on the office floor after teaching today. It was funny. (Hope no one saw me!)
