Through all the pain your eyes stayed blue...

Life has been a odd the past week or so. It hasn't been omgbusy, but it's been...anxiety-inducing and I haven't felt able to relax. I've had the constant niggly feeling I've forgotten to do something. If anyone is expecting anything from me, please poke me!

I had to work a full day monday which I wasn't expecting and so this screwed up all my plans for the week, which was a bit annoying. But it meant I got to leave work at lunchtime yesterday, so that was a nice start to the weekend.

As part of my get healthy kick I've decided to take up swimming, my first session was yesterday. My ankles being dodgy, I can't do much (if any) high impact exercise, and I enjoy exercise, I enjoy using my body. I haven't swam since school (it works out to about a decade ago), so I was incredibly flaily but I enjoyed it and I'm assuming I'll get better with time.

I thought I'd be achy this morning but I'm fine, although I seem to have sprained my wrist, so am currently wearing a very stylish dark blue compression bandage. This puts a spanner in my writing plans, as I was trying to get a lot of uni_merlin words down, so I'll have to see how it goes.

Finally brought The Hunger Games, so will be watching that tonight (after Dr Who, obvs). Very excited! Loved the books, looking forward to see it translated to film.

Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend!

Woooooo! Exercise! I started lifting weights recently and my body is HURT. I'm glad that you enjoyed swimming though/ It's one of the best ways to get in shape.

I'm considering swimming again two or three times a week once I settle down permanently in a city; there's no guarantee I'll be in Manchester for long atm, and my ankle's still in pain after spraining it, but at least I have a plan and varying degrees of conviction, aha! I haven't swam properly since I was like 14 or something, and I've never loved it even though I'm a strong swimmer, but I'd like to be a bit healthier exercise-wise, so good luck to you! Hopefully I'll be joining you in the pool soon.

Ouch about your sprained wrist, though - hope it gets better soon!
