I started the hundred pushups challenge last week, but… well… I started on January 1st — a Thursday.
Not that there is anything wrong with Thursday, but it makes for a slightly awkward schedule to keep when it makes more sense to start on a Monday.  I’ve already done the initial test (23) and the sets for Day 1 (Thur.) and Day 2 (Sat.) already, but …

little dude is sick.
Sam had a cold when we first went over to Korea to bring him home.
2 months later, he’s caught his first “official” american cold.
the winter weather has not been horrible here in northern virginia, but it hasn’t been kind to Sam.  his cheeks are seriously chapped and his phlegm gurgling, chest and nose wheezing, coughing, and snot-smearing brings about a crankiness in …

New Year’s and resolutions.  They always seem to go hand-in-hand, eh? Have you any? Do you feel like not makin’ any ’cause you *know* that you’ll probably fall short only a few week down the ‘09? Have you given up on ‘em?
I know I have.

I know, I know… it’s a 17 week season and we’ve cut our season short by a week.  We decided from the start of our league that the final week’s games are a very inconsistent …

as of this morning, i weighed in at 202 pounds. the holiday season — from Halloween on through the New Year — can prove quite detrimental to one’s physical well-being.
i’ve lost 28 pounds since Jan. 2005, but since this past summer, i had dropped from 208 down to 197… fluttered around 198 for awhile and then… well… you know… i am now hanging out on …

no big post here. just drooling. i really like the concept here and would love to get my hands on an Axiotron Modbook or something like it.  perhaps, one day, if i were to win the lottery, gain some inheritance money, or benefit from someone’s sheer generosity… but for now… i’m just droolin’.

by the way…
