Oh my, my legs are killing me!! I decided to climb Arthur's Seat last night - but I started at the wrong END...I started near Holyrood Palace and went up & down - then realized that I had to go up AGAIN to get to the top! It was worth the climb - I got some absolutely gorgeous PICTURES from up there. Coming down, got lost again. I was trying to find a better way down - something that wasn't straight up the side of the cliff!!! But I ended up on a side of the mountain that was a sheer drop off and there was no one up there but the bunnies & I. Whoops. Note to self - be very careful to remember which way I came (at that moment, I was VERY glad I left a note for the roommates...just in case.) But I found my way back - it was just a pop over the top of the hill again. I was disgustingly sweaty. I probably walked 10 miles - and most of it is straight uphill. Actually, coming DOWN the hill was worse.
Today I am determined to get a run on my papers. I'm going to have a huge, hearty Full Scottish (obscene breakfast including eggs, toast, sausage, beans, potatoes...you get the idea) then buckle down & get cracking. Hopefully I'll eat enough that I won't need to eat for the rest of the day & I can see if I can totally knock it out. The idea of a 20 page paper is intimidating because it takes me a long time to write & ruminate. I have to work on it NOW so that later this week I can edit.
