You CAN do pushups, my friend!

Thank you, Tumblr, for this treasure.

I really like this guy. I like his face, and I like his voice, and I like his lovely green backyard.

I also like that he looks and dresses like a real person, and that a lot of his stretches and exercises are things you can do with just an empty wall in your house. I appreciate that he shows you "easier" variations of what he's doing, because I definitely need those variations!

Last night, after discovering this particular video, I did some wall pushups, and it felt amazing. I love jogging but have no upper body strength, so this is the first set of pushups I've ever been able to do. In my life. Awesome.

The Adventures of Tulip, Part Six

Yesterday evening Tulip explored a swamp, where he was killed by:

- frogs,
- plants,
- tree lizards,
- a moth, and
- accidentally walking backwards off a cliff.

Tulip hasn’t made it out of the swamp yet, but that’s okay. It’s a beautiful swamp.
