More birthday thanks!

Back on the exercise bike

Level 10 was going well. Then I hit 53 minutes and my legs decided they couldn’t keep up with the pace I wanted anymore. I should probably hold it at level 10 for awhile and start on the hand bike. That’s probably all about pain.

My scooter is registered!

Sin City

I liked the stories and how they intertwined, not explicitly, but seeing characters in the same scenes but from the vantage piont of other characters. Sure it was violent, but that was mostly covered in the comic book style. It […]

Junk food recovery

So today was just a normal day. Nothing seemed out fo the ordinary. Except in the afternoon I felt like I was having a sugar crash and wanted to take a nap. Instead I made myself go do something and I was fine after that.

Gifts to myself today…

Jr. Techie finally got some singing magnets! I picked up a large and a small pair since my old set was getting pretty worn. I also picked up a Five Iron Frenzy CD I didn’t have. That should be the last one because they’ve broken up. Looking at their site I guess I still need […]
