I spent quite a bit of time the last two weeks consolidating my various websites and email servers together so I’ve got a single host and more importantly, a single hosting bill! It was fairly fun to do a bit of database and web work, so I don’t get too rusty at it. And doing […]

Well, that was a terribly long absence. Back in March I couldn’t keep up with my Game of Life due to working two jobs at once, and that got me out of my blogging habit too. But I think I’ll at least catch you all up on the major happenings this year, and then maybe […]

77/100. Oh well. I got off to a good start with exercise the first 4 days, but a bunch of midnight shifts allowed the cold I had been dodging for more than a week to finally get me, and I just didn’t have the energy after that. I’m mostly over the cold now; feeling pretty […]

88/100. Getting back there! I exercised every day this week, except was really slack one of the days, so I lost a point there. Mostly VRT, and got some walking in 3 days. All week I practiced the same 3 Midnight Oil songs: River Runs Red, Arctic World, and Sometimes. Then on Sunday night I […]

78/100. Big drop! 7 points were lost in exercise. I hurt my shoulder during VRT early in the week; it wasn’t enough to affect regular life, but it made further VRT too painful to do until the end of the week (I had a really good workout last night again). Work, weather and a bit […]

100/100. To elaborate: I did my VRT exercises every day last week, and supplemented with some walking two of the days. Boy it was cold this last week, so I didn’t walk more. I found I was even able to do the exercises in my cube at work during my 3 midnight shifts; that was […]

I have to think of more imaginative titles for these posts. 99/100: a really good week; I just ran out of time on Sunday to get my daily sorting/fixing activity in. I’m still really enjoying the daily walks. When it’s warmer outside (like, just -5 or -10C) I find all sorts of creative ideas come […]

98% for my first week playing my game – and I didn’t entirely fail on those last 2 points either; if I was awarding half-points then I would have earned them. One of my daily activities is sorting and fixing stuff. I found my old Pac-Man and calculator watches. My Pac-Man watch came back to […]

I’ve made a little game that I’m playing against myself. I wrote out a list of daily things I want to do, and a bunch of things that I want to spend time on at least once each week too. I sorted the list out and assigned points to each area so each week I’ll […]

I meant to post about this way back when I got it in June or so, but never got around to it. Ben and Kyla were playing it today, and I had the camera ready, so it was a perfect opportunity. I’ve wanted an arcade cabinet for a long time, and when things seemed to […]
