Finally settling into a routine

exatronIt's been a few weeks since I moved into my new place, and I think I'm finally settling into a nice routine.
My place seems to be in an optimal location since almost everything is only a couple miles away. Places to find a proper couch or futons are hard to come by, but I'll get one eventually.
Sleep is no longer an issue since I'm pretty sure I've had more REM sleep since moving than I've had since the beginning of the year.
My new gym is very nice, and the staff has helped me fix a few issues with my form (My traps were doing more work than they should have), as well as helping me revamp my entire workout routine. This place feels like it has about three of every machine and weight you could want. I also took a bit of time to watch some of the classes held there. One of their martial arts programs looked interesting, so I picked up a flier for the stuff they're starting in January.
The recent wave of cold and snow has had one unpleasant effect- the air has almost no moisture, making me thirsty all the time and causing my knuckles to get dry and cracked, but at least we have snow.
And I picked up Looney Tunes Golden Collection volume 4. It's nice so far, but I really don't like the overlapping disc trays. They may save some space, but I shouldn't have to take out one disc just to get at another.

Date: 2006-12-08 04:40 pm (UTC)I tend to have very specific couch requirements. The armrests need to be at a height where they're useful when sitting up and don't get in the way too much if I want to lie down, it has to have a shape that lets me sit with my back against it and my feet on the ground, it can't be green, the material must be something that's pleasant to touch in any weather.
Sleep is very good.
It helps that they have some decent eye candy here, even if it is hard to top the Sawyerish guy (Hair about the same length and color, unshaven, similar build, a pair of square wireframe glasses, and a bandanna keeping his hair back.) at my old gym.
The flier I picked up was for karate, but one other was mentioned elsewhere. The name of the second one escapes me.
Normally static electricity and chapped lips are the issues. This is the first year I've had to deal with dry hands. My heat's electric, and that could be the cause.
Add a bit of "I hate doing this because I don't want to risk scratching the upper disc" and it'd be the perfect description.
You too.
