Lazy Sunday.

So. Things are going really, really well right now.
Like, oddly well. I've made a conscious decision to stop fighting it and just go with it. Things can be going this well for a while with nothing really bad happening, right?

Anyway, I'm walking well now, sans brace...still got to work on my flexion, but other than that I'm doing wonderful with PT and recovery. Chris had his last day of chemo on Friday!!!!! So happy AND happy for him- it's been a very long time coming. Very long. And, oh yeah, WE'RE GOING TO NATIONALS!! The Norwich University Women's Rugby Football Club are Northeast Champions, earning- through sweat and dedication- the NE's only seed in the Division II National Championship. Maybe they'll finally move us up to Div I soon, so we can take this program to the next level and play Harvard, Navy, Army and Penn State.

And fuck. Them. Up. Yes.

Can't wait to get back on the pitch. The only downside to anything right now is my limited ability to work out. I've got a program worked out for this coming week which involves jump-rope (on one foot, thereby kind of doubling the cardio workout haha), and I can begin to cycle, so we'll see how that goes. Also, the pool beckons as does the pull-up bar and CORE STRENGTH exercises, which I will do just for fun cause....they're fun. :) I miss the gym, and now I can justify going (finding the time will be the issue, naturally).

I need to go shopping. It has only recently occurred to me that I am months away from entering the Real World, and despite the obvious simplicity of wearing a uniform to work...I don't plan on the Air Force being my only job. Volunteering, interviews, and "business casual" work-related tasks will undoubtedly be a part of my life, and my wardrobe still screams "I GO TO COLLEGE AND I AM AN INDIVIDUAL." So that means, of course, I have to do WHAT when I get back from Thanksgiving Break in 2 weeks?
Yeah, that's right. I have to go back to work. Greeaaatt.

Ah, well.

Because bananas grow on a non-woody plant, they can not be considered trees or shrubs. Thus, they are, in fact, herbs (commonly known as "spices"). The bananas we buy are genetically altered to be triploid, making the edible fruit much larger than normal, and the seeds are sterile.
They are simple fruits (unlike pineapples, which are multiple fruits, or raspberries, which are aggregates) and because the skin is formed from parts of the stem tissue, they can be considered accessory fruits. I am a banana, and my spoon is too big. No, really. Ha. Wait, what?
