Twilight

I am now on the 4th book of the Twilight series. I am not a fan of Jacob, but of Edward. I am both impressed and annoyed by this story. On one hand it's a good story and fun to read and on the other hand it has some typos and really frustrating points. I wish there was more action in the past 3 books, I wish there was more vampire action, and I wish there was a much less brighter spotlight on Jacob. As far as I'm concerned he should have a smaller role than Alice or Charlie! Instead I start with the 4th book and find that after about 100 pages of some pretty adult content that the next 200 pages or so are from Jacob's point of view and allll about Jacob! Blah!

Okay, enough rant about that. I'm sure I'll be through with Breaking Dawn by next week and griping that I want more.

I can't really remember when we started biking at the Veloway but I know it's been more than a month. I remember those first few days were so difficult! I thought I could barely make it a mile. Now I'm up to 6 miles! Of course Rob can do way more than that, but hey, at least we're doing it! I'm pretty proud of us being active together. Plus, we really like doing it. We've seen bunnies and deer and birds and I think I saw a fox once! It's pretty neat.

I went to the doctors last week. For the two weeks after Rob and I got really sick I had red bumps that were pretty itchy all over and was worried I had a heat rash, that wasn't going away, from biking in the recent humid weather. Turns out they were hives and a reaction from the illness we had over Easter. I'm much better now, and I found a doctor to stick with here! He game me some allergy medicine and a cortisone shot to boost my system. The shot wasn't so bad but the allergy medicine makes me so drowsy! I'm feeling so much better and clearer now!

I didn't do so well with my last Flickr 365 project so I'm going to start over today. I think that if I have some sort of focus, rather than just and random idea, I'll be able to stick with it better. I think for May I'll start a series called 'Where Am I Today?' that way no matter what I'm doing everyday, I can take atleast one picture and make a sort of diary of pictures. I might try to continue through July- when we'll probably be able to go to Maine. Since it's summery and green out I should find myself in some interesting places!
