This is the annual “I am fat and shall lose weight starting now” post. Yeah, it doesn’t really work out vert well, now, does it?
Once again, the goal is to be 20 pounds lighter. Currently, according to WeightBot, I am 201.6 lbs. Realistically, I would like to get below 190.
How will this be accomplished? Working out? Yes. Bike riding? Maybe. A diet? Yes. Eating right. Exercising daily. Attempting to be healthy.
I can do it.

As you know, I play the guitar. Or rather “play” the guitar — I’m rather bad at it and have no rhythm whatsoever. Still, I love to play it and can’t wait to get another one. In the meantime, I usually try to play songs I like from bands I like. Rolling Stones. Alice in Chains. The Doors. Their songs are simple and playable from guitar tabs found on the net. That’s why I like them.
But there are lots of songs I would love to play, but their tabs are hard to find or nonexistent. Let’s get software to figure it out for us. Here’s a nice Mac program that can help you do just that. I want to try it really bad, but I have to much stuff to do. Perhaps, you can?
It's only taken half a day before I am fed up with IniTech.They go from zero to sixty in less than a second!Must check my heart rate and BP as work is complicating things.Why am I such a pussy for working at IniTech? Don't answer. I already know.
Just returned to work this morning from the families' Disney World adventure. I've missed a lot of things that I regularly do, because of being slightly off the net. My RSS feed was over 400 entries long. The Twitter time line went days on end without ever being read. Email has piled up. The blog has missed many awesome NewsRadio quotes. I'm making it up with this post.One of the items I missed is Anime News Network reviewing the late Satoshi Kon's work. They're reviewing most all his works which is something I wanted to do. After he passed away last month, I wanted to revisit his works. I came to watch his movies too early in my anime binge. When I was enthused about ecchi school comedies, I watched Paprika. This one flew over my head somewhat. I liked what I saw (it was anime), but couldn't really get into it. Even with the esteem I hold the medium of animation to, I was late to realize that Kon really did animation to tell his stories. They are films that so happen to be animated.I'll revisit his movies, because all the retrospectives on his career have saddened me that we have lost truly genius of a film director.
Work sucks, but it pays. If I wasn't getting paid, then I wouldn't be here. I'm here, but I want to be elsewhere. Anywhere but here is good.I need that November vacation, BIG TIME! The last vacation I had taken was Espana 2007. Since then, the vacations were of meager time — a weekend, four days, a week off at home. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed those vacations because they were NOT work. They were too short primarily and a little bit unadventurous. Labor Day is here. The tradition end of summer. We're on our way to FL for Disney World. I'm not really excited about this one. It's Disney, and I don't have kids. It's Disney, and I'm here with family, brothers, cousins, aunts, uncles, nephews, and nieces. It's gonna be some wild, wild weekend.Further down the road is the big adventure in HI. That's gonna be fun. I really want to go back to Iceland. Now that sounds like an adventure.All of this is expensive. I have to tap the rainy day fund. It's raining hard, like Hurricane Earl. See you in the airways.
It has to keep going…
… because it is should be interesting.
And I can’t think of anything so far…
I started this post 20 minutes ago trying to figure out something to write about.
Write what you had on your mind.
What would that be? Girls? A girl?
But that’s always on your mind.
Not all the time.
I also think about other stuff. Mainly other stuff, because thinking about girls gets you depressed.
Depressed?
Not really. But that is the way I played my cards.
You could never play right. Your ‘tell’ is just too obvious.
Right. You noticed. Now if only they could, too.
Yup.
Just checking in.
I’ve got to post at least something a day just to make BrowserMetrics’ Seventh Annual NewsRadio Quote Month worth it.
I’ve been trying to set up a subversion repository on my MacMinIntel, but have been stuck for days figuring out where to put it. I would like for it not to show up in a Finder window, but I would like it accessible from all over the place (i.e. over the wireless network to my MacBook Pro). The problem then is one of permissions and such. I tried to create it in one of the root directories, but ran into permission problems. Can someone clarify where to put a subversion repository on Snow Leopard (not the server version)? Or maybe that is my problem, that I am not running the server version.
Apple released new iPod Touches with FaceTime. Looks to be the cool. If I didn’t have jonesing for iPhone 4, I would be all over that. Also, if I had more than 3 GB of music, maybe as well.
Tweeting has been so much fun. I wish you would join me.
Nendoroids. Nendoroids? Nendoroids! They’re coming at me like crazy.
When will that Haruhi movie come out?
What would you like to discuss? Comments are now open.
A running conversation between Margaux and me is that she should be around for the baseball games I’ve been going to. She’s missed one hell of a season. It was early season sucking, then middle season sucking, until finally, late season life to make the sucking somewhat bearable. Anywat, I would usually tweet at her during the game and then she would tweet back about her cardboard cutout. This is as close to a cardboard cutout I have of her. Blurry and out of focus. I hope she realizes the fun she’s missing when these podpeople Orioles are causing grief with the hated Boston Red Sox.
Dude! It’s freakin’ September, the greatest month ever. Suck it July!
I have yet to exhaust that gold mine that is NewsRadio. It’s on! BrowserMetrics’ Seventh Annual NewsRadio Quote Month. For you new readers, every post title this month will have be a NewsRadio quote. NewsRadio being the greatest show of the late 90s. And the late 90s being the best time of my life. So NewsRadio is the best show I’ve seen. Even better than The X-Files because it is so much easier to watch in 25 minutes.
Sit back. Relax. Enjoy all the nice NewsRadio quotes. Hope you go and Netflix the episodes and laugh, laugh, laugh with BrowserMetrics.
