Back in Los Angeles! I worked out at the gym near Dave's parents' house twice (Precor/elliptical, short swim, weight lifting), and, most amazingly, didn't gain weight over the holidays (yet; Mel's having her big New Year's Eve bash tonight).

Dave and I went for a short bike ride yesterday (I'd not ridden since Solvang, ugh) and we're going running today (hopefully with Mel, though when I just called her, she was still in bed -- she said she'd get back to me in 20 minutes).

Carlsbad is only three weeks away -- AGH!
