Can I post every day for a month? Probably not, but I'll give it a go.
Hi, I'm Fiona. Since you can read my profile for the 'back cover author bio', I ought to find something else to say here, but I'm finding it surprisingly difficult.
Suppose I write a typical Day in the Life instead. I have become the carpool mom, taking my daughter and two other girls to school every day. Then I go to work, where I am a Java programmer. Lately my work has been doing a daily steps challenge, so I usually go out and walk for a bit in the afternoon with a colleague. After work I exercise, either running 3-5 miles or stationary-biking 15-20 miles. Last fall I got a wild hair and decided to train for and enter an indoor triathlon; the event was in March and I've just registered for the next one in December. When I finally get home, we have dinner and hang out together, sometimes watch TV (usually via Netflix or Amazon: we tend to be the people who watch series long after they've been cancelled) or just lounge about. I used to knit in the evenings but haven't been doing much of that for the last year. When lounging about I am often either reading HD fanfic or playing games on my phone. My current favorites are Fill-a-pix, which is kind of like reverse Minesweeper where the mines form a picture and you don't explode, and Plants vs Zombies 2, which I just downloaded the other day. I'm trying to play it without making any in-app purchases; I don't know whether I'll be able to eventually get to all the locked levels or not. If I didn't exercise after work (or sometimes even if I did) I often take a late-night walk to finish out the daily steps challenge.
On weekends I usually swim 2000-2500 yards in the morning on at least one day, sometimes both. During the day we run a ton of errands, and then in the evening we often attend a drag or burlesque show. We've been doing a lot of that since last fall, and there is a drag or burlesque show almost every night of the week here.
You'd think I would sound more interesting: polyamorous bisexual with several loves and multiple hobbies, but really? There's a reason I don't post often. Well, there are several. One is that my quickie posts end up on Facebook (I'm happy to FB friend anyone on my LJ flist, just give me your FB name); one is that I just don't do all that much that inspires me to write about it; and then there's the fact that I backed away from prolific posting years ago for personal reasons I won't get into here, and I've never gotten back in the habit. Then too, I've been quite averse to spending a lot of time writing at work ever since I got reprimanded for it about 10 years ago, and once home I forget anything interesting that I might have wanted to write about.
As for photo(s), the userpic is relatively recent. I'm the one on the left, in shiny green. My lovely![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mac_arthur_park is on the right. That was taken at our reunion (P.B.T. the Goddess of Second Chances) in January. And here's an even more recent photo of me with my new glasses. Taken in July, I think.
