Must Do Things.

[kiya]

I have to figure out how to hold this front situation more consistently, I'll get more accomplished.

Must finish Stromgarde quests on the elf.
Must go get fabric and such to make altar cloths.
Must paint hallway (which means must find masking tape).
Must get fiddly bits.
Must must must. . .

Must lift weights to clear some of this energy, is what I must do.

Ahhh, spaghetti arms.

[ Kira interjection: I don't care how deep or wide, if it's got another side . . . ]

Addendum:

Must chase down various abandoned dishes and run the dishwasher.
Must work on cleaning the python tank.

I lifted weights this morning, too. Although in my case I don't really do it to *lose* energy. Physical activity tends to leave me with more energy than before, at least in the fairly-near term. I also have spaghetti arms, which is the other reason that I lift things. One cannot have much success at Judo (which I am currently taking a class in) with such little upper-body strength. I have plenty of lower-body strength, which is one of the reasons I am really rather difficult to topple. But in order to make offense, one must also have upper strength.

Also, the "Must must must..." reminds me amusingly of a word that I heard from some brain-washy type psychologist on a propaganda video about the evils of the Prozac.

Musterbating. Right in the same sentence as "shoulding all over yourself". This guy was a *quack* I tells you. And *amusing*. But scary.

It's do something with this type energy. So lifting weights does something, and so it counts, and the must-do-something-with-this is pushing less.

I started out lifting soup cans, and after a bit of that I actually had arm muscles, which was weird because it never happened before. I'm doing three and five-pounders now, but I haven't been doing it properly in a long long time. So now when I try to lift things it doesn't take long for my arms to turn to spaghetti.

Next thing to do! Um . . . whatever that is. Probably laundry, laundry can always be done.

Scott and I are contemplating Stromgarde stuff (I think tomorrow: we have pirates tonight to finish, as pirates are annoying)

I'm gonna try to pin teinedreugan down to it this evening. In amongst all the other stuff that we're in Must Do mode about.

BTW, would you be willing to make a Horde alt on Thunderhorn and sign my guild charter? I got Scott earlier, and I asked Jay when I sent his rogue the latest locked box drop Samh picked up. :} (I need to chase down linenoise and get his Hordeling on the list. . .)

I could probably be coerced, as long as no one expects me to actually play it terribly often. (I have this distinct lack of time in my life which doesn't seem to be going away)

Write my paper for me? (No, not really. But I do hate trying to write things that suck, and I would much rather write things that are interesting. But the things that suck are what get graded.)

I don't have actual weights, unless I go to the gym, which I am always too lazy to do. But I do have a very large backpack, and a large assortment of books of various weights, which works just as well.

No worries -- I know linenoise said the same thing, and Scott's basically said he'll play it a day a week. :)

. . . dude. I just got passed in Orgrimmar by a Sergeant. Coool.

We have a couple sets of handweights which live by the computer as a scolding reminder of the need to lift weights. ;)

Like me, you have no body fat... the gratifying thing about this is that muscles are apparent a lot sooner. *G*

I'm playing my hunter there so I don't out level you by even more, having one would allow you to poke me when you are ready to play.

Just another reason to do it, even if you don't play it much.
