Perspectives of a Canadian in the Old/Deep/New/Geographic South: This is where I ramble on about nothing in particular and post a few nice pictures.
Ok, it’s been 4 weeks since the Body Challenge started. I’m still at 172 lbs and I have to admit I’ve been a little lazy as far as the working out part.
Time to see if I’ve changed at all
Chest 95 cm (-0.9 cm)
Waist 91 cm (-0.4 cm)
Hips 102 cm (-2.1 cm)
Thigh 58 cm (-3.0 cm)
Bicep 31.5 cm (-0.9 cm)
So I’m making a little bit of progress. Just need to start working out.
A friend of mine emailed this to me. It’s a little something for all you bubble wrap addicts who just ran out.
You’ll never run out of bubble wrap again. I particularly like Manic Mode. I know it’s not quite the real thing, but it’s good for a little mindless entertainment.
I am. My wife told me so this morning. She said flat out “Your blog is getting boring”.
She used to find what I wrote funny. But I just haven’t had much funny stuff to write about anymore.
So I hang my head in shame. I can’t even entertain my wife with my writings anymore.
In other boring non-exciting news, I finally got my driver’s license from the DMV yesterday. A shiny new license with a new picture that expires in … 364 days.
1. What’s the most daring thing you’ve ever done?
Made a spur of the moment decision to buy a plane ticket to New York as I passed a travel agency on my way to work. A very big and daring thing to do for a low paid grad student living cheque to cheque and had never gone any further from home on his own than a 3 hour car trip.
2. What one thing would you like to try that your mother/friend/significant other would never approve of?
Hmm, i don’t know if I should say…
3. On a scale of 1-10, what’s your risk factor? (1=never take risks, 10=it’s a lifestyle)
I’d have to say I’m probably around 2 or 3.
4. What’s the best thing that’s ever happened to you as a result of being bold/risky?
I met the woman who ended up becoming my wife.
5. … and what’s the worst?
hmm, nothing comes to mind.
I had no idea RSS had such a storied history. Over at DiveIntoMark he writes about the 9 different incompatible RSS versions. There’s a lot more to RSS than I originally thought. Must make it tough on people who write software to read RSS feeds.
