Damn Sickly Bastards!!!

For the last month and 1/2, everyone me has been sick. Work, family and friends have all been a wandering pool of virii and coughs (I guess that's technically the same thing). Right now the house is so hot, the cats are sweating, but here I sit, shivering my ass off. Probably going to have to take off work tomorrow, but hey, that's the breaks. Hopefully this Camomile tea and Hot Tahti's will help me sleep it off. For those that really want to see me back up and running (at least up), you can shoot me some chicken soup email here.

Dance Hall Daze

In my ever-growing roundness, I figured that it's finally time to do something about it. Gone are the days of the ex-wife dragging me to the YMCA for hours on end, and as a result, I am steadily pushing 220 pounds. Hell, I don't think I can lift that much. This is where my new "toy" comes in. I call it a toy because it has lots of buttons, flashy lights and loud music that comes from Japan. I picked up DDRMax and a dance pad controller, not a bad deal for $50 plus tax. This game is flippin' crazy. It took me about an hour to get through the training, and I was already sweating at the end of that. I tried a bit of the game and soon found out that white guys really don't have rhythm... and it's not pretty. The workout mode is pretty cool, and it even keeps track of calories burned and your weight history. Now all I have to do is use it. I'll keep you posted on the results.

Have to Say It Was a Good Day

Another day older, another day wiser... or something. I had an killer time at my birthday party. I'm glad everyone was able to come and have a good time, and for those that couldn't make it, I'll have a drink for you next time we meet up. There's something to be said about having a good time with friends and family. Hopefully someone will send me some of the pics so I can put a few up here.
