Exceedingly boring exercise post

yeah, yeah, move along. Been working towards this anyway due to oncoming running around in a bikini and a very short skirt all weekend for Discworld at the end of august. (all other females in costume : there's this thing called a corset. and long skirts. it's your own fault.)

Jogging, I started doing short runs yesterday (first field, starting as 40 mins, hoping to get it up to 30 mins) as I can't guarantee any weekend time until August. Hopefully if I add that to weekend runs through August it'll get rid of the holiday podge (damn you, diner and tea rooms) and sufficiently tone self up a bit more in time. Adding a few lunges and so on from one of those health and fitness mags. and cut out the seconds on top of that.

Poking hair as I hate that it's thinner than it used to be, and breaking like crazy. Health mag tells me that I want is protein - kerastase-type tablets should do - for the breakages, and zinc to get it thicker and encourage growth. Shall try it, since it can't hurt. Anyone know anything similar or works better?

Er...other stuff...

Got a free week night on thursday post going to the Wyeth exhibition in Dulwich, debating between Sister Act, 39 Steps and War Horse. Wavering towards Sister Act as it's limited run.

Poking my wardrobe to see if I can get a Victorian outfit from it for Tors and Andy's wedding at the end of the month. Putting together a new Conina top for Discworld, and apparently staplers are your friend when it comes to leather pinning.

food reactions

Okay, NOT an allergy query thing.

This one's for odd/uncommon reactions to food.

Not talking about caffeine and sugar for sending someone bouncing off the walls, that's fairly common. Or wine and cheese giving you a migraine.

Anything that brings on an odd reaction?

Example: mate of mine gags if given fresh coriander.

I go completely bouncing off walls with too much hydrogenated fat. I can consume sugar like no-one's business and have no noticeable difference. Hydrogenated fat, bouncing off the ceiling. Oh, and I upchuck if given suspensions.

A mate's little brother had an extreme reaction to colours - one blue smartie, took us an hour to scrape him off the ceiling. really. This was scientifically tested.
