Thanksgiving

Since next Thursday is Chanukah, and my nephew doesn't like to travel for Thanksgiving weekend, we are having Turkey today, and Thursday will be leftovers and latkes.  Seems like a good way to do it!  I made apple pie (as always) and ginger bread men because I am bribing students who have to come to a stupid meeting into thinking it's a good meeting.  I figure if I give them cookies they won't notice how lame it is.

So anyway, I've been eating a lot of cookies (lots of bribery going on) and I'm shopping for a new car because after trip #9 to the garage, and more $ out than the thing is worth, it still almost overheated on the way home from work!  Granted I was sitting in traffic for about 20 min, but I drive in the city, that happens.  I can't plan every trip around traffic...

Which is all to say that I haven't been exercising enough, and I've been eating too much.  It's so cold and windy out today, there was just no way to run outside.  But, I decided last minute to hit the gym.  I did 30 min on the treadmill, with a 5 min cool down.  5.7 mph for most of the run.  3.1 miles total.  It was really boring.  And then I didn't even lift weights because I have to go eat.
