Tough Mudder

I had other stuff to post up, but my "friend" just talked me into doing the Tough Mudder this fall. Plenty of time to train for it, right?



Shenanigans.

Upon being asked, my first thought was "why not?".  Then he told me it was a 20 obstacle, 12-mile race.

I then responded, "so it's a relay?"

His response was laughter.

Yea, this'll be something.

Deleting facebook

That's a great read, especially given how bad people are acting on FB these days.

I'll post something more original in a bit. Life is good otherwise!

New Year's Restitution

December was not kind to the waist line. I was/am ok with that, and now it's time to jump back on the horse. No booze, limit carbs, increase protein, good fats, and water intake. It's pretty simple really, except for the fact I live in the US, where everything is coated with carbs.

I'm having lots of eggs for breakfast, and turkey patties for lunch. I need to increase my veg intake too, which is easy if I go up to Hen House and put together a salad, but that's pricey to do day in and day out.

I've already lost 3.8 pounds in 5 days, but that's most likely because I was feeling like Augustus Gloop the whole month of December. Between turning 40, NYE, Christmas, T-day, the Chicago trip, there were plenty of opportunities to imbibe and eat lots of good food.

So enough about that I suppose. Going to have a jam session tonight. I think there is going to be six guitarists. That's a lot of six-stringed wankery going on. I suppose our "set list" is pretty low key though. Hopefully we can get Gold Dust Woman in, but it'd be nice to have a bass and drummer to keep things moving along.

Just a little something to put you in the mood.


That's it for now. I probably have more stuff, but I'm not up for it. This blog post took almost all day since I got distracted for 8-ish hours (work).
