Most of my fitness transition plan has been focused on exercise. Get more exercise and eat the same as you did before, and you will lose weight. This has to be true, based simply on physics. Back when I was using the Hacker’s Diet, it worked like a charm. Then it [...]
It’s getting around that time of year when kids start singing little annoying songs and thinking of the toys that they will be getting in slightly more than a month. In my family, when everyone gathered for thanksgiving, the younguns were expected to have a list which could be disseminated throughout the family with [...]
This is just a short note to remind everyone that the most wonderful woman in the world deserves birthday greetings. She’s still only 4 years, 5 months, and 2 days older than me, and not 5 years older, which she would like you to believe. Despite that, she easily is beautiful enough to [...]
What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Midland

Welsome to the first of I hope many diet and exercise weekly posts. As I noted previously, in the past week or so I have started trying to lose weight. Currently I am using two websites to track my progress. The first is Traineo, which has nifty graphs which show the progress [...]
Life has been hectic to say the least, but I am taking control of it finally. School started, and I finally got settled into a schedule. I am taking two classes with highly overlapping material, both focused on user interface design. They are focused on separate aspects however and only overlap slightly. [...]
Classes have started for this semester, which means that I am just a bit more busy than I was before - and I had a pretty full plate before. Luckily, both of my classes are fairly similar, allowing for some overlap and giving me two different perspectives on the same topic. I suspect [...]
