Not really…I always hate hypocrisy. The latest is the drama about Unions and budgets in Wisconsin (and many other states). Here’s my problem…. The same people (Tea Party & Republicans) who argued that we cannot afford to raises taxes on the richest 1% of the population, are now arguing to cut salaries of public workers  [ Read More ]

Tonight was the Oscars, and as usual I had seen a bunch of movies in the last year, so i had my favorites. Unfortunately though, I had not seen “The King’s Speech” which took home the Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actor awards (and others that i can’t remember I’m sure). My favorites from  [ Read More ]

Earlier in the year, I made the resolution to lose weight. Pretty standard resolution…but this time it ended up being a part of a challenge with my friends to see who could lose 20 pounds (and keep it off) the fastest. The loser (3rd place) buys the winner a round of golf at the Par  [ Read More ]

I may have mentioned Chubby’s Tacos before. It’s an awesome taco/burrito/quesadilla/nacho place near where I work (there’s a few more of them), and it’s where we went to lunch today. The good thing was that I had a Groupon, which meant that Garrison and I both ate lunch and only paid a total of $4.14.  [ Read More ]

Today was a big day. Melody and I found out that the latest round of IVF worked, and not only that, but it worked twice as good. We have two embryos growing at the moment, but the doctor said it’s too early to start thinking about buying two cribs. The blog post about it is  [ Read More ]

As expected, and as forecasted in yesterday’s blog post….Jason beat me like a rented mule at racquetball this morning. It was ugly. Really very ugly. But…it’s over now, and that’s a good thing. I have until saturday, or maybe next tuesday to recover and figure out how to get to double-digits on the scoreboard again….ahh  [ Read More ]

Today, I had my regular tuesday morning racquetball game with Jason…and fortunately for him, but unfortunately for me…he’s got his groove back. For a couple of weeks now I’ve been winning the majority of the games, and I really should have enjoyed it more…or at least savored the moment…..because I knew it would end soon.  [ Read More ]

Didn’t have anything planned for today’s blog post. That’s mainly because nothing major happened…at least of enough note to be immortalized in blog post format. I did workout a couple of times, in fear of tomorrow’s Daily Burn challenge weigh in. The weekend was cruel to me again. Even though I played racquetball and ran  [ Read More ]

Melody and I went to see “I am Number Four” today, which was actually a fairly good movie. It had its cheezy moments, as any PG-13 movie would, but overall I was quite satisfied with paying to see it on the big screen. Afterwards, Melody and I went to Sushi Blues for dinner. After having  [ Read More ]

Saturday….nothing different than the last several of them. Racquetball with Jason for about 90 minutes…definitely another good workout. Soccer on TV…this time FA Cup. Some good matches, but mostly ended as expected. That’s about it. Oh yeah…and I worked out again in the evening on the elliptical.
