Classics

Today, I was reminded that it has been ages since I've revisited some of the classics I so loved... SK sent me an IM today that quoted Masters "Spoon River Anthology" from Fiddler Jones:
And if the people find you can fiddle,
Why, fiddle you must, for all your life.
...
I ended up with a broken fiddle --
And a broken laugh, and a thousand memories,
And not a single regret.

These were the lines she sent me; which were rather appropriate for how I started my day and was feeling generally.

I started thinking today that perhaps I should delve into a few classics... perhaps *gasp* not live via my pedometer for a few days and trade in 3000 steps for a couple hundred pages? A scary proposition, indeed. But, I'm on my way to try out the jump rope for the first time, so if I break something (namely me) getting a few classics in might be the only thing I can do... we shall see.

Mahalo.

So how did the jump roping go? The last time I tried that, I almost broke an ankle . . .of course, that was when I weighed 100 pounds more than I do now . . .maybe I should try again?

Jump roping, once I stopped whacking myself in the head was preety decent... made it for 5 minutes....

Hey, that's not bad. I can never go for that long. Jump Roping is much more strenuous than it looks!
