Again I got up late today while the Bear was up and working for the old place, Mikrodots. Well I was up and then fell back to sleep, and was up and fell back to sleep. Cleo slept out in the living room in her crate and then busted in the bedroom this morning looking for breakfast and jumped up on the bed and fell asleep. Then I woke up and did computer stuff until I got kicked off the network and then had silly dreams.

Spent some time organizing again, getting paperwork figured out, making calls about things I need to get done before I start work on Monday and won't have the chance. The Bear wanted to go out and explore and I was afraid to leave Beaky because we hadn't done that yet. She seemed to adjust okay for the most part but I was still afraid to leave her alone. So we left this afternoon to find the Gap so I could get work clothes. So we left and she wasn't freaking out, just a little anxious. We found the Gap in Lincoln Center but the sale clothes were so picked through. It wasn't even worth spending much time there. So on I went to Banana and I found a pair of jeans cheap which didn't really help because I can't where them to work but they were cheap enough to get anyway, and I got a sweater. The Bear also got a sweater. I put it all on my Gap card but in 2 transactions because I wasn't w/ the Bear when I bought my stuff and on the Bear's sweater they took an additional 20% because it was the first Tuesday of the month but they didn't do it on my clothes so now I have to go back to see if they'll give me my 20% off. We also stopped at Lululemon to check out if there was any sale stuff because I didn't really bring yoga clothes, though I have yet to go. Tomorrow?! I got a sale pair of shorts, reversible, and seem pretty good so I want to see if they have another pair tomorrow if I go back to Banana.

The Bear wanted to DO something too so we ended up going to the American Folk Art Museum Branch in Lincoln Square. It wasn't very big but it's not the main museum. We'll have to check it out next time. I liked the Vestie Davis Volunteer Fire Dpt. painting because it had dalmatians in it. The gift shop there was real cool. Lots of recycled gifts, very cool!

Once we got home I made dinner again: spaghetti w/ vodka sauce and toast. We need more veggies but we didn't really buy much for green stuff. It filled our bellies and was cheap so for now that's how it goes. Then I started working on my taxes when rr/j told me Biggest Loser started again tonight. Yay! This time I didn't eat while watching because I already did AND the Bear and I went downstairs to the gym in our building to work out. I did 3 miles on the elliptical and used my new jump rope. Jumping rope is hard! I almost puked after 100 jumps. Then some dumbbells for the arms and more jump rope.
