Well, nearly 3 hours after I got back from my run, I’m finally going to shower.
I haven’t been slacking though - I’ve done my stretches, and spent an hour and a half working on the case study section of my dissertation which is now, in principle, finished (just needs a shit ton of editing)
Run done :) Very slow, as predicted, but considering how achy I am, I’m going to consider 3.5 miles at any pace a success.
Stretchy time now. I normally stretch in the evenings, but I’m going out for dinner tonight, and I’m 95% certain I won’t want to do it when I get back. So now it is.
Run time. Still sore from yesterday, so it’ll probably be a slow one.
One the plus side, hopped on the scale, and I’m down to 9st13. So I’ve actually lost 2-3lbs in the last 3 weeks (Monday I was still holding onto a bit of bloat from eating junk at the weekend I think)

thegradschoollife:
An interactive exhibit exploring the role of museums, curators, and the general public in validating what is and what is not design, Museum as Plinth: Take One/Leave One stages a “take and leave” shelf of objects in the MAD lobby. Over the course of a weekend, museum visitors are invited to take an object and replace it with one of their own— simple ephemera from their...
I would like to eat all the carbs please.

Bowie Bowie Bowie
The exhibition was awesome :) Soooooo much stuff. I particularly loved all of the costumes, and the section on Bowie in film (Labyrinth <3)
BUT being a Museum Studies student, I han’t help but have some criticisms :P The layout was fairly poor/confusing, particularly at the beginning (but then I make this complaint about every single V&A special exhibition, I just don’t...
Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepy
Had a fairly shitty night’s sleep last night - I’ve got a really sore throat for no apparent reason, and it kept waking me up. Then next door’s dog was in the garden being loud at whatever-o-clock.
Oh well. Today I’m off to see the Bowie Exhibition at the V&A should be awesome.
Just did the 30 Day Shred for the first time in at least a year.
DYING.

Female Video Game Developer Calls Boss Out On... →
beyondmywildestdaydream:
A female video game developer pulled an awesome prank on her boss to teach him about sexism. videogames, sexism, hawken, art, sexy, objectification, nerds
A round of applause for all parties in this article.
This is the correct (and creative) way to call out misogyny.
And this is the correct way to respond to said calling out.
Bravo.
I love being at home
That is all.

I found a super awesome tshirt to get le boyfriend for his birthday, BUTbutbutbut it’s gotta be shipped from America, and I’m super nervous about customs charges after the last time I got something from there.
:S
Back down under 10st this morning (just). So I’ve lost 1-2lbs in the last 3 weeks, which I’m quite happy with :) Now it’s run time.
1/3 of me: I wanna be fit and sexy and have a flat stomach and be lean and have lots of muscle.
1/3 of me: I wanna be skinny and tiny and dainty and delicate and bony and frail and look cute in everything.
1/3 of me: I wanna not give a shit about what I look like and be happy instead.
EEEEEEEEEEEKKK
So, there were a few late additions to the Jobs Desk this week…
…including a role as a collections assistant in a town in commutable distance from where le boyfriend plans to live…that pays nearly £20K a years. doesn’t demand paid experience, and uses a database that I have experience of.
MUST WRITE AMAZING APPLICATION.
