giving thanks

1. USians who celebrated, I hope you enjoyed your weekend as much as I've been enjoying mine! As always, I am grateful for all of you. ♥

2. Thanks to my dad, I have unexpectedly and fairly reluctantly achieved smartphonelandia at last. Any iPhone apps you guys find particularly handy?

3. On a completely random note/for my non-twitter folks, I would wear boring white button-downs EVERY DAY if they had cats embroidered on them.

4. I found this article on Productive Stretching for Dancers via one of my dance friends and thought it was worth passing on. Obviously, not everybody dances and ymmv on the utility of the specific exercises mentioned, but the concept of productive stretching is a useful one.

Hey, did you get my email?

[glass_icarus]

Yes I did! Replying now. :)

Ohhh, I somehow missed the cat embroidery! Cats improve anything!

I'm going to be poring over that productive stretching post for lower back stretches. :D

[glass_icarus]

SO CUTE!! :D Haha, I've been looking at the lower back stretches too- super useful.

Those cat shirts are adorable! Btw, are you still living in the same neighborhood?

[glass_icarus]

I moved back to NJ a few months back, actually! Still in the city area, I just can't exactly hang out on short notice these days. *g*

Drat! I was asking to see if you were in town & wanted to come over for dinner tonight, so pooh. *rueful* All the people I know in WH are moving away!

[glass_icarus]

Hee, I just realized I probably should've specified re: "short"! (2-3 hours ahead? could be manageable; less than 1? most likely not.) Dinner may not be a possibility given the amount of leftovers we're facing at the moment, but I am planning to go to the zouk social tonight if you're free.

I am head down in studying for finals, unfortunately, so no dance for me. :( There has been no dancing for me this semester (aside from a very little swing, bc C does it, and so we went to a couple socials in the interests of relationship harmony and sharing interests, etc.), which in retrospect explains part of why this semester was so much less fun than last year! I am trying to dragoon people into coming over for dinner as an efficient (everyone has to eat dinner at some point) and tasty way of combining social time + study break.

Ah, yeah, in that case dinner/food plans are absolutely the way to go! Have just surveyed the state of our fridge and we are indeed swimming in leftovers, so maybe next time. :)
