Oh shit, pubs open early. Barkeep, coffee with Jameson please.

Well, I'm going to my first networking event as a Study Coordinator soon. One of my older cousins runs the 'Young Professionals Group' where she lives and recommended I try it out. The way she explained it to me, these sorts of groups are mostly populated by transplants like me, who left a social network behind when they moved for work post-college. Just from a little poking around the group page for my area it seems like a fun bunch. The event I'm going to is just a mixer at a local (Swanky) bar, but they've also rented out a climbing gym, done some volunteering for the local Humane Society, among other things.

I got a 10lb kettlebell this past weekend, did my first real workout with it last night. We'll see if I stick with it, but I felt like I needed some kind of workout beyond yoga and stationary bike cardio. The idea is to start with this small one and learn the motions to work out with it effectively without hurting myself, then once I feel like I'm not going to tear a rotator cuff just looking at the thing, move on up to a more appropriately sized one.
