Poets again

A few weeks ago my favorite poet, Edu, promised me to fix up my apartment. He is a great guy and writes beautiful poems. He had a tragic youth hood, amounting to a Greek tragedy almost. In light of that insight (he shared with me on that occasion) he turned out amazingly well-adjusted. Yesterday he called me again, and promised me to come around on Wednesday morning and fix my built-in cabinet's disjointed door (he doesn't know yet that my furnace is misbehaving, too and I also have 2 mirrors, 2 towel racks to put up, and two shelves to assemble). Don't forget your word, Edu! I'll teach him English in turn so he can read all my badmouthing about him in the future (or praise).

Dark chocolate coated cherries

Yes, I was eating them. They are just too delicious to resist! Yesterday I was reading Noisy's blog about losing weight 5 weeks in a row and got so inspired that I rushed to the gym and did lots of goddamn exercise. I got on the stepmaster for 6 minutes (53 calories - or kcal?) then ran 600 meters on the running board, did go through just about every exercise machine in the room, went in the weight room and did lots of exercise (like leaning forward, to the side, etc with two 3kg weights in my hands) and finally unwound in the Finnish sauna and the steam room. I saw the masseur, a cute, pleasant blond guy in the steam and he told me about the massages he does and it turns out he also does "room service", i.e. besides the health club he also comes to one's place and in that case he costs only 3,500 Forints for an hour (about $17). I am very tempted to try it as I used to have massages beforehand and they are very beneficiary for your general wellbeing.

But, back to the cherries. I just had to have like half of the (100g) bag, they were so delicious. I should get a scale like Noisy does. Although sometimes they are really useless - I measured myself twice in the gym yesterday - in the beginning I was about 67kg (with training clothes but no shoes on) and after the saunas when I measure "only" 64 kilos. Felt fairly dehydrated though. In any case, I don't think I weight more than I did yesterday afternoon but feel a bit guilty about eating sweets when I am trying to lose weight. I just want to see the results of all that hard exercise, dammit!
