Holy Monday, Batman!
Posted by Sarah in classes, food, me, music, smoothies on Jul 28, 2008 | 4 commentsSo this weekend was kind of a drag in some ways (dad’s deathaversary) and good in some ways (Saturday’s class, Marsha’s wedding celebration) but it was a general downer in that my sleep hasn’t gotten better (bad dreams/nightmares for the last week).
This morning I decided to wake up, make a smoothie and do some studying for my exam tomorrow. But before I could do those things, there was a ring at the doorbell. A few weeks ago, through a complete fluke, I won a Wii and Wii Fit from dooce.com. Today they arrived! Clearly the gods do not want me to study for my exam. Fie on them! Instead of preparing for the Drunken Wii Fit Invitational, I WILL study anatomy and physiology. Really.
I also made my smoothie. Today’s blend: handful of almonds, handful of dried cranberries (blend those first), 8oz OJ, 1/8 of a block of tofu, frozen smoothie fruit mix (pineapple, strawberry, mango), one plaintain (because it was black), handful of blueberries, 10 baby carrots, large spoonful of plain yogurt, splash of skim milk. I totally forgot the flaxseed/bran but it’s pretty delicious anyhow and the almonds give it some texture.
AND, because it’s a super double spectacular Monday, I ALSO have a a new music mix! This is an 80s mix (66 minutes) that I’m going to use in class tonight. My plan is to have Madonna play *before* class so that it works right into the hourlong class time.
Things to do this week (in blogging) review the podcasts and Wii Fit Yoga!

Dang! I entered that dooce contest too, but I knew I stood no chance when my comment number was 6666. No way her Mormon mom was gonna pick that one. Good on you, mate!
It was completely dumb luck because I somehow managed to be comment number 2. And of course, with 43,000 comments I thought there was NO CHANCE she’d pick something so early.
I plan on sharing the love by posting any Drunken Wii Fit Invitational photos…
I want a wii…Lucky you! And if there is somewhere you post a list of smoothies will you direct me to them??? Please please pretty please!
I don’t have a list of smoothies, but I can do separate entries for them. I tend to change them up pretty frequently and they make A LOT (about 5 cups) so I use them for breakfast *and* a snack or lunch.
