I've taken up TaeBo to see if I can get into a normal exercise routine. So far, I've successfully made it through 3/4 of the instructional video without injury. I don't know how long I'll last with this exercise program considering I despise little comments like "You can do it!" (how does he know? The person on the other side of the TV may be paralyzed or something) and "Use your heart to guide you through this exercise program" (I don't know, I just thought that maybe I'd just use my body)...there's also this very skinny, very ripped blond girl who scares me on the video. They've given her a headset microphone (like Madonna) so I can only suspect that she comes into play later and with much greater ferocity...I'm not looking forward to that moment.

Otherwise, I already feel better--more breath at my disposal (I'm a former asthmatic), better posture, and climbing up the flights of stairs to Braden and Nicole's 3rd floor apartment is ultra-easy now. Yea!
