Business Cards
I got my business cards in yesterday, and they are great!
I got them for $0.01 after shipping.
My belt is getting happier
It’s been a few years since I’ve had to remember to wear my belt regularly. In the last week I’ve been pulling it out more. I guess the whole walking to school thing is helping out, because I’m not eating perfectly like I was for the first two weeks or so.
181
I’m getting close to the 170’s, and that’s cool as all get out. When this cold, overcast yuckiness finally passes through the state I’ll be able to walk more and more and get my heart in totally better shape.
Remember, the whole point of all this is not to lose weight, it’s just to lower my cholesterol. The loss of weight is a side effect. A good side effect.
Demetri Martin
Last week Michael posted a link to some youtube videos staring Demetri Martin, one of my favorite comedians.
Demetri is a pretty regular cast member of The Daily Show, and any time he’s on you’re pretty much gonna laugh. I forgot that nearly a year ago he was chosen as the spokesman for Windows Vista. And now that Vista is coming out tomorrow finally, he’s been getting a whole lot of Airtime. The last week Comedy Central has been airing his “Person” special, and it’s excellent. His ability to cater to the “indie” scene is a slight speedbump to overcome. The man is extremely talented at his profession.
Take a look at one of the advertisement sites for Windows Vista. It’s really amazing. If there weren’t a logo at the bottom constantly reminding you that you are looking at some sort of advertisement for Windows Vista, you would never know the difference. I just sat for about an hour playing around with the site, and didn’t hear Demetri say the same thing twice a single time.
stall
still been stalled out at 182, but I’m sure it’s my eating habits and my lack of exercise that have been the cause. No worries. I feel better, I think I look better, and I definitely weigh less, with the intention of weighing less
182 for the last 4 days.
I will be tickled pink if I can just keep up an average of 1 pound a week, and keep it off.
It’s getting closer to Groundhog’s day
Well, the month is getting closer to an end. Today’s weigh in was:
182
Funny story about yesterday. I know this isn’t particularly healthy, but I couldn’t really eat anything yesterday. I just didn’t have an appetite for it. I tried eating some pineapple and it didn’t settle with me very well. I ended up not eating much of anything until about 8 pm. My brain/stomach/body told me it wanted pizza (something I hadn’t had in at least a month, probably more). So I went halves on a pie with Evan (of which the new roommate ate most of Evan’s share (poor evan)) I ate half a pizza last night. It turns out I was a little hungry. But if you know me any bit well, you’ll know that pizza does something to me that’s not pretty. It gives me really bad stomach aches. That’s the reason I lost a pound yesterday. Edit: Sheesh you people, I edited the line I had here out, hope that makes you happy.
Another cool thing is today it was rainy, so before I stepped out the door I grabbed my umbrella and headed out. Got to the bus stop and saw a girl walking up with just a jacket on. Her books were getting wet cause she didn’t have a backpack on, so I sidled up to her and covered her with my umbrella. We got to talking and she seemed pretty cool. Rode the bus to school with her and got her phone number. Maybe something will come of it. I don’t know.
I wasn’t really trying to hit on her by getting up to her and sharing my umbrella but I’m not going to sit back while opportunity knocks.

same
same (weight) as predicted. Went to my two classes today and it was a cornucopia of the same students as my other classes.
So I have 4 classes total. Three of the classes meet in room 332 of the business building. The 4th meets in room 222. I go to the 222 class today and about half way through class the prof says “alright, let’s pack everything up and go to room 332.
yay! all four classes in the same room. hah!
this will be a very confusing semester with all the same students in my classes. The only thing making them unique will be the teacher.
short weekend update
just reporting that I’m stalled (ate a little bit of “bad” (good) food this weekend).
oh, Friday I hit 183 and have stalled out the past two days. I’m sure tomorrow it’ll be 183 as well. But we will see

First day of school
Well, I had my first class, in this my last full-time semester of school, today. I also am really glad to be back in school after having two ice-days forced on us (we did NOT get any snow, despite what people might tell you).
I neglected to weigh myself this morning, but It’s probably safe in assuming that I didn’t lose or gain anything. It was too cold to do any physical movement yesterday except for walking from my room to the living room multiple times. Also I scraped ice off my car.
So I’ll go with an un-official 184 again
weights a matta you?
just throwing out the daily.
despite the “snow” day yesterday where I was more sedentary than a glacier in a non-ice age I stayed the same weight as yesterday.
