Another Bad Week

It’s been a long, bad week. I’ve been mostly unproductive and I’m glad that it’s over. But then, it’s never really over. If nothing else, I’m working all weekend, again. That kind of makes the week never end, but at least I don’t have to worry about going to class for the next two days. A friend of mine from HS is getting married today. I had wanted to go, but I can’t. At any rate, I decided to start the day off by doing some stuff around the house that I’ve been meaning to do for some time but have never gotten around to. In particular, I was doing some painting, which I generally hate doing. I know that Milenka will be happy to see the painting done in the dining room when she sees it though, and that’s really why I did it.

One of the few positive notes of the week is that I’m continuing to lose weight. I’m down around 6 pounds from where I was two weeks ago, which is actually lower than I’ve been in a long time. I can mostly attribute this to actually eating properly (or at least, not over-eating). This has been helped out by the fact that, due to the way our bills have fallen, the past couple of weeks money has been tight. This has made it unwise to stop off for fast food or order a pizza, which for some reason we had gotten into the habit of doing fairly regularly over the past month or two. This week the budget shows a surplus again, but I’m pretty sure we’ve decided to continue the trend.

I finally started watching Babylon 5 again as well. I’m actually starting watching about half way through the third season (half way through the show as well, actually) to expedite matters a little. I actually saw up through the end of the third season when it was on the air, but then it got dropped from the channel it was on (it was syndicated) so I never saw it again. The show has a very strong arc, so it’s not really something that you can just jump into the middle of and expect to have any idea what is going on. As such, I’ve turned to The Lurker’s Guide to Babylon 5 to read up on the older episodes to get me up to speed. I actually do remember some of it, but it’s been a long time. I’m not a big fan of soap operas really, but I love the format… :)
