First time this decade

Spent a half hour on the treadmill this evening. Got my heart rate up and burned over 100 calories. Of all the exercises I do, this is my least favorite. Yet, as with just about all my workouts, I'm always glad I did it afterward.

A little romance

It's snowing outside, but I'm warm and cozy here at my desk, eating my oatmeal and enjoying the Lads. I'm listening to the really old, seriously adorable songs -- "She Loves You," "I'll Get You," "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "This Boy."

These are special not only because of the charming melodies and heartbreakingly innocent lyrics, but because of how these three voices meld.
