Despite my utter failure to get to bed at a sensible time last night, and thus running on only three hours sleep, today has been a really good one. On [personal profile] kake's sterling advice I went to investigate Atari-Ya sushi bar, which is just around the corner from where I work. Let's just say I shall never be patronising the Selfridges Yo! Sushi bar again - who would, when they can get sushi half the price and twice as good a couple of streets away. I had a takeaway bowl of chirashizushi for £6.50, and utterly delicious as it was, I could barely finish it. Nom.

After work, which was unusually productive and enjoyable, I went swimming with [personal profile] sashagoblin. I've been going and doing my 40 lengths a week for perhaps a couple of months now, and although every time I've felt absolutely fine in the water, getting out of the pool has always included a period of feeling as though someone had filled my lower legs with lead. Until today. I think I might actually be getting fitter. Rah, and woot, and all that sort of thing.

You have inspired me. I must enjoy both sushi and swimming in the very near future!

Thank you! That's rather tempting. My plan is to start gently by using the pool near work, as I get it at a huge discount. Then build up a bit - I do need the exercise badly. I would v much like to do more swimming. Sadly, uni has no pool :-(

I'm quite amazed at how people have the energy to exercise of a morning - I can barely move! Mind you, short hair probably makes that easier.

Yeahhh. Plus I HATE getting my hair wet early in the day!

Glad you liked it! You really must try Dinings, too.
