New icon & Happy 4th!

I decided to make a new fitness icon with my shorter haircut. The photo is cropped and edited from this photo. I wore this outfit to the gym a week or so ago for a "total body" class. I was joking that there was no way to hide the shape of my body in that outfit. It actually does squish my bosom down a bit to reduce jiggle, so it makes my chest look a bit smaller than it really is, but otherwise, this is me, this is my shape, this is the body that gets me around, in all its chubby glory.

Posty McPosterson

Either I am sorely behind in my reading or you are all a bunch of posty bastards. Maybe a bit of both. I don't read LJ while I'm at work on M/Tue/Fri at all (I had this Friday off, but generally speaking) and those workdays tend to be long, which means I sometimes don't read LJ at all those days. I had to go back 250 posts to get caught up today.

So, I'm reading, but not commenting much. It's not because I don't love you, honest.

I'm working a part-time job and doing a bit of freelancing on the side. Without any details, this sounds fairly mellow. In reality, I feel like I've been busting my ass harder than ever. I'm not complaining, because I chose this. But I am really glad I had this whole Fri/Sat/Sun off. I had to do a bit of freelance work today, on the order of maybe 1.5 hours, and will probably do a similar amount tomorrow. But mostly, it's been mellow so far, and that's been nice.

Hope you're having a good Fourth!
