Non-descript update

Ok, I'm feeling like crap, so here's a general update...

I feel like crap
As the title mentions, I'm a bit poorly at the moment. Yesterday I would have gone for throat/ear infection, but today it just feels like a cold (any bets on tomorrow? I'm going for irritable bowel syndrome but the polls are still open.) I'm also bored as hell which means I've spent most of my day off not being productive (besides this mornings swim) sitting on the computer flitting between web surfing, warcraft and... well, blogging.

Unwell but Healthy?
Other than this little cold I have ("little") I would say I am doing rather well on the whole healthy lifestyle thing. I am still binging on weekends but I think that will slow down over the holiday period due to the fact that I will be surrounded by food regardless, and will therefore be less likely to order out. I've been swimming every morning still and my boobs are getting firmer, not to mention a bit more definition on my upper arms. Funnily enough, I think that my lower arms are looking better as well, they are going a bit Popeye-ish but not in an exceedingly bad way so Im happy thus far. My weight currently stands at 13.5 st, which is fine considering some of that is now turning into muscle. For those of you who might be concerned, I check my weight once a week to see how things are going, I am not obsessed with dieting or excessive exercise (far from it) but when I started uni I lost a lot of weight in a short amount of time, so I want to make sure my weight loss slows down to something I can manage without being too concerned.

Hows the laughs going...
Very well, I'm looking in to getting some gigs after the holidays are over, by then I will have solidified at least 10 mins worth of stand up. Not to mention I've signed myself on for an improv course with the comedy store which should be a good laugh. The comedy circuit in Manchester is really fruitful and the people seem so friendly (even if the audiences can be arse holes.) Its nice to see that comedians and promoters actually look out for each other around here! Its a competitive business for sure, but it isn't aggravated competition.

Other than that, I can't think of anything else to tell you. I have a bit of uni work to do over the holidays but nothing too stressful, other that all that, an assessment scene on Friday and the impending 3 week workshop at the beginning of next year all is well on the Uni front. I think I'll go to bed now, get an early night to try and shift this sodding cold.

Night folks ~

  1. I'm not well either.

    The laughs bit sounds good! In Wigan the Orwell is having a frog and bucket comedy evening last Saturday of every month.
