On The Mend


Well, it's been a bit since I last blogged so I thought I'd jot down a line or two to catch myself up on where I am in life at this point. My most recent post was an advertisement for my rocket, and I must say it's with mixed emotions that I report its' sale. It was purchased by one of the players on one of my favorite sports teams (I'll leave his name and team out for privacy reasons), but that was only a small consolation! I enjoyed meeting the guy, but it must feel the same as when a dad meets his girls date for the first time. The only difference is I knew this guy was gonna ride off into the sunset with her and that I'd never see her again. It still feels a bit awkward...

Anyway, loads of stuff has happened since then. Most noteworthy was my trip to Las Vegas with my gal-pal, Amy. Perhaps I'll share more later, but I just want to mention now that I think I could live at New York, New York Hotel & Casino. The coaster, the food, the atmosphere...it's all good!


I'm currently reading The Millionaire Next Door and am enthralled...these guys are gonna help me on my way to wealth, I just know it. I'm also digging into a book my mom picked up for me called When Bad Christians Happen To Good People.... It's certainly a worthwhile read for the currently churched as well as those of us who've experienced, shall we say, a bit of a bad taste with church-life. Wrapping up my worth-mentioning reads of the moment would be The Body You Want In The Time You Have..., which leaves no room for further excuses for not working out. You name the number of times a week you wanna work out (quite simply, just pick a number between 1 and 7...it's not that hard). Then decide how long you want each workout to last (from 15 minutes up to an hour). Finally choose the type of workout your looking for (i.e., weight loss, definition, mass or a combination of the three) and voila', your personal plan is ready made. Now go find your abs!

Life is great...
