So yesterday I decided to start the 100 push ups routine, since everyone else is doing it, and I would like to eventually be able to do 100 push ups. Ha. It does not seem possible, but it can't hurt to try. In the initial test I was actually able to hammer out 20 at once, which was surprising because in kung fu class I am usually dying at the end of 10, but in class we do them faster and I think my form is rather poor when doing them fast.

Also, we finally joined Netflix, and I forsee an overconsumption of media in my future. Which is dangerous, because I have not been reading much lately, for want of finding anything that fits the very particular book craving I've been having. I just want a good Victoria era story with a mystery and a dash of subtle romance. But written recently, not written back in the actual Victorian era. And without too much dialect. I am having a really hard finding books that meet my criteria, and have not been feeling the love for anything else. Blerg!

If you ever find any of those Victorian novels you're looking for, let me know. I'd like to read them too.

I will let you know! I do have several that are exactly what I described that you can borrow any time. Warning: they may lead to obsession, disappointment that it takes the authors a whole year to pump out the next book in each series, and the desire to write your own! OMG, they are so good. If they were food instead of books I'd be all like NOM NOM NOM on them.

Hee! Okay, I'm sold. Just let me get through my birthday books first...

Have you read that series out that "the other boleyan sister" was based on??
