This is a very rough list of songs inspiring The Victor/Ayn Marriage
1. Marry Me - St Vincent
"We'll do what married people do. We'll do what Mary & Joseph did without the kid."
2. Memory Serves - Interpol
"It would be so nice to take you, I only ever try to make you smile. You won't have to say that you'd love to, but baby please that you want to, someday."
3. Hero - Regina Spektor
"I'm the hero I don't need to be saved."

HEY HEY Look at me!
Look at me I went running! Ok, walk/jogging, but the point is today is monday and I dragged my tired, still!sore (went riding on Friday for the first time in like a bazillion yrs talk about OUCH this weekend, god I'm out of shape) ass out of the house and hit the road in my running shoes. Clocked 3.2km (or about 2 miles) averaging the epically slow pace of 6km/hr lols. Still I am proud of myself.
Tomorrow I plan to do an easy 30min walk and 15min of weight lifting.
I also bought some fresh fruits and veggies and a couple Odwalla bars to help scale back the amount of frozen burrito meals I've been having. Baby steps are still steps.
I'm tentatively planning to run a 5k in Spokane either end of September (hah! yeah I dont feel too confident about being ready in 7 weeks but we'll see) or middle of October (more likely though harder to find a close enough race). My goal this fall is to get my butt trained up so I can enroll in either a beginner sport class (like Futball) or weight lifting class at the UREC during spring semester and do a series of longer fun races throughtout the winter/spring (tentatively, I'd like to run a City Half Marathon next summer. I think that's feasible, maybe even a full marathon next Fall if I stay focused? We'll see.)
I've got a good idea what I want to get as a tattoo (a Sapphic fragment in the original Greek if I can find scans of the original papyrus or pot shards) but I've told myself I'm not allowed to get it until I run a 1/2 marathon (If I run a full marathon I'm going to get my motorcycle endorsement :D Yes I have to shamelessly motivate myself like that).
In writing news... well there really hasn't been any writing since my last post (what ten days ago? WOOPS). I wrote about 85 words last week. I've been rather discouraged though after talking to Meagan about why I'm discouraged I feel... not necessarily motivated but like I should suck up my insecurities anyways and get back to work.
I've been distracting myself from writing by tentatively working on my first Fanvid for Whedonland over on LJ >.> IDEK It's fun and diverting.
I'll leave you with some Editors

I fell two days behind due to parties, dinners and the holiday (only 500 words written between July 3/4) but I plan on doing a little more writing this evening that will hopefully get today on track and the whole thing moving forward.
Still waiting for inspiration about my 'inciting incident' to round out chapter one. I have most of the rest of it written.
Music rec for today which I think is also fairly applicable to the novel is:
Animal by Miike Snow, the chorus is brilliant, I just want to crank it up and dance around with my eyes closed. The vid's pretty awesome too. I think this song is begging to be remixed well but I have yet to hear a remix of it that improves on the original. total fail.

Soundtrack for Red Inside (working title)
1. Fire in Your New Shoes by Kaskade feat. Martina Sobara (of Dragonette)
This is the title song and my No.1 inspiration for Red Inside. I adore Martina Sobara, her style, her hair and her voice are delectable.
2. Holding Out for a Hero remix cover by Frou Frou
I really love the original version of this song BUT I think this cover by Imogen Heap really stands on its own two feet as both a tribute to the original and a NEW fresh take on the classic. This song is also my personal "Sherlock BBC" theme.
3. I Am Not a Robot by Martina & the Diamonds
This song keeps me in mind where Cam is going over the course of not just this story but the serial arch.

Will add more as my personal playlist for this story grows. Currently switching between listening to a Martina & the Diamonds and a BellX1 station on pandora.
