“Timid” might as well be my middle name. (Instead, it’s Grimm, so there you go.) So yesterday I felt pretty proud of my many small victories:

• started to review HTML and set up my portfolio webpage for my first XML assignment.
• made a really good supper with a little happy-pig sausage, which I bravely removed from its casings, even though it was really extremely gross to do so.
• signed up for a gym membership with J. At a rock gym. Not only am I not too keen on exercise of any description, I don’t relish heights. But yesterday I obediently rode the little stationery bike like a champion hamster and then clambered around on the ropes for about 30 seconds until my upper half was totally sore. If I’m going to get in shape, I might as well do it with my husbeast to cheer me on.

So, yay for a start to a braver semester?
