xaotica @ 1:25pm: wanna buy some stuff? i have stuff.
since i'm unemployed and extremely broke, i decided to leave google ads up on livejournal. so far i've made $1.10. hey, that's sweet. perhaps you'd like to click a google ad and feed me.
i'm feeling happy about being alive again and have started refocusing on all my productivity / life improvement goals. i got a silly iphone app called iachieve which is the equivalent of a little kid's star chart for good behavior. currently i'm tracking which days i went to the gym, took my vitamins, slept for 6, 7, or 8 hours (i know it's sad, but even 6 is an achievement for me), how many hours i spent studying, and which days i brought coffee from home instead of buying it. i usually bring coffee instead of buying it, but i want to remind myself to keep up the good work ;)
i'm also using shapeup to track everything i eat. this is a major pain in the ass but it does help me eat better. it also helps remind me to drink more water. i'm constantly dehydrated. when i ended up in the hospital earlier this year people were freaking out about it and couldnt get an IV in. bad news. so i'm trying to carry my water bottle everywhere i go again and drink less coffee. i'm also putting these
zenergize electrolyte things in it. i went through a dark period post-breakup this fall where i drank excessively and spent a lot of time cuddling ice cream. i can't say it was all bad, but i'm reformed now ;)
i still have a membership to 24 hour because i have some old personal training appointments to use, but once i'm finished with those i'm going to have to cancel my 24 hour membership to save money. but the UW gym is quite awesome. the elliptical machines have a plug where you can plug in your ipod and it shows the video on an attached LCD.
i have to sell a bunch of my furniture now 'cause

stereo99 doesn't want it upstairs :( are any of you in need of a
giant suede-covered love sac? retail price is ~$660 after tax but i'm going to sell it for $200.
i'm also going to sell my
solio magnesium (solar-powered charger for ipod/iphone/cellphones/etc) once i find the rest of the parts. great for travel, camping, burning man, etc ;)
i talked to
clamoring for awhile last night about teaching english in japan. the more people who i talk to who have done it, the more interested i become. i'm going to have a lot of student loan debt and it would be awesome to pay it off before starting grad school.
i wish
simplify media had a way of telling me who's actually using their account. i get a lot of promos from the radio station now and am sharing a bunch of stuff, so i keep getting requests to add me... but i have the maximum number of users on my list already (which is only 30!)
i'm going to try being vegan again after i get back from san francisco at the beginning of january. i've been eating out too much & not eating as well as i could in general. granted, i've been eating $5 pho on the ave, but still. i have lots of great vegan cookbooks (veganomicon, how it all vegan, etc) and everything i've made from them has been delicious.
