:) Thanks, not-Pablo.

In the time you've been gone I've gone crazy and ramped up my writing...editing...submitting...The whole 9 yards. Great news, it has started to pay off and I've gotten two poems accepted for publication recently, one in an international (UK) journal, so that's pretty cool! I'll put them up when they go live on the intarwebs.

But of course I'm not perfect and there are other areas of my life where I fail to achieve! I don't exercise enough. I guess my excuses there are...laziness...it's dark outside (not really a valid excuse any more, it's so bright for so long!)...other plans. Well, great news! I recently got dumped(ish) and now I have a lot more spare time. I'm resolved to start exercising every day now. I'll let you know how it goes! (read: I'll let you know if it goes well ;) ). I'm going to make it happen. grits teeth I will finally use that gym membership! I'm going to do it this week! (But...but not today...because I didn't pack my bag...BUT I'M GOING TO GO FOR A WALK, DAMN IT!)

ref, congrats on the work youre doing. Hearing you break ground in your passions makes me feel more courageous about pursuing my own, somewhat similar hobbies (I found a cute little journal in an indie book store in new york, Im using it as my rule-free, judgement-free abyss of expression to motivate writing and center my thoughts).

Believe it or not, fitness is half the reason I made this post. I'm busting ass staying on top of my game on the off season from my wrestling team-- Im no jock by any means, but god damn does looking good feel good-- but I'm having trouble really giving it my all in the program i've committed to. Hubski workout session? #hubskinyc. anyway, best of luck again and remember that shit feeling you get when you skipped a workout or a run, use it as motivation to make stuff happen.
