The Best is Yet to Come

It's been a somewhat boring week with housey, diety, and worky-outy stuff, but there have been some high points. I got to go to the mall with my friend Cat who's in town to train for her upcoming role of Ariel (among others!) on the Disney Cruise Line. She's such a fun and friendly person to be around, and I'm really glad she's in Toronto for a few months. We got boots for her and Lush bath products for me, and I got to meet her friend, who's playing Cinderella on the boat and who is also from Florida. She seemed incredulous when I said that it was pretty warm that day, but I told her I'd had since October to adjust to the weather, whereas she'd just gotten in town a few weeks before.

Another snowy day in Toronto.

So it was a good but somewhat pedestrian after the last couple weeks. The excitement will come tomorrow, though. That's when we're finally doing it. Chris and I are going to the CN Tower. Oh, you know about the CN Tower, right? It was the world's tallest free-standing structure when it was built, and though it's lost that distinction in the years since, it's still the world's tallest tower. It has six elevators inside it that send you up at 15 miles per hour, and when you get up to the top (well, not the tippy top, but the top for tourists), you can stand on and look through its glass floor! Of course, it also has a pretty neat series of lights that run up its length at night, and one of those crazy revolving restaurants, too. Mostly I'm excited because it's such a significant feature of the Toronto skyline, it's really really tall, and I'm going to try really hard not to throw up on the way up there.

Exciting stuff. Workouts are going well, eating is going okay. Monte's being pretty great, and all is well. I look forward to sharing my experiences and pictures from our adventure really soon.
