1. drink more water
2. run three times a week
3. jazzercise at least twice a week
4. log my food on my fitness pal
5. get in bed by 10:00 every night
I am supposed to reward myself if I do all five each week. I have yet to earn a reward. (I'm looking at you numbers 1, 4, and 5!) But I digress...
As you know, I decided to stay up past "bedtime" to catch up with Don Draper and the gang at Sterling Cooper. This was a terrible decision. (But we knew that, right?) Terrible because after Mad Men, I discovered that Lonesome Dove was playing on the Ovation network. The entire miniseries. And I caught it at the very beginning. Needless to say I am exhausted today.

Totally worth it though. Have you seen the miniseries? Read the book? You must do both. (Did I mention it's available on Netflix?) I wouldn't consider myself a fan of cowboys or westerns, but this is good. Crazy good. Best ever good. I dare you not to fall in love with Gus and Call. Beautifully written characters.
Almost makes me wanna learn to rope and ride and live off the land. Almost. But I have on my cowboy boots today and that's pretty much the same thing, right?
olive juice, okay?

p.s. mood music and some quotes:
- “I'm sure partial to the evening,' Augustus said. 'The evening and the morning. If we just didn't have to have the rest of the dern day I'd be a lot happier.”
- “If you want one thing too much it’s likely to be a disappointment. The healthy way is to learn to like the everyday things, like soft beds and buttermilk—and feisty gentlemen.”
- “Yesterday's gone on down the river and you can't get it back.”
- “Live through it," Call said. "That's all we can do.”
- “Occasionally the very youngness of the young moved him to charity--they had no sense of the swiftness of life, nor of its limits. The years would pass like weeks, and loves would pass too, or else grow sour.”
love it!
