I Don't Do Idle

I've come to realize, slowly and surely, that I hate being bored. I hate having long stretches of days with no structure and nothing to do. When I do, I get in funky moods and feel disgustingly fat/lazy/unproductive; I come to hate myself.

I'm on a research month right now, which means I have no actual obligations to anybody except myself (must. get. project. done). I spent the first several days watching some television, lounging around, and doing a slight bit of studying. I got some wedding-related planning done. And I wallowed in self-loathing. Then I went to DC, where I enjoyed myself more but still felt like a worthless turd, and so:

I moved my Step 2 (boards) test date up, from November 24 to October 31. Which means I'm taking my boards in like, 3 weeks, which is ca-raaazzzyyyy!!!

So now I'm studying for hours a day, with newly found motivation. Go me! I love it! Today, I drove back from DC, studied for hours, went to the gym, cooked a delicious healthy dinner with enough leftovers to feed myself lunch for several days, studied some more, and look! Here I am, blogging!


Anyway,
Things I rediscovered in DC:
1. I wish I could just live in Anthropologie, stock my kitchen with their wares, and wear all their clothes all the time. *le sigh*
2. I love tart yogurt a la Pinkberry
3. Acorn squash isn't so bad
4. Angie + Disney music = fun :)
5. The South is warmer than Pitts-brrrrr-gh!
