As stated the other day I'm updating my gym results. I did 20 minutes in the Ellipticle then worked my biceps, triceps, pecs, shoulders, abs, and legs. All in all I learned that I'm not as strong as I used to be and that I feel like a giant pussy now that I'm starting out with the gym again. I do, however, give myself a month before I feel good about my self again. I mean I've only been to the gym 3 times and I already feel pretty good. I already carry myself better, I walk taller and I like it.

So non-gym related news now. I went to a friend/former co-workers place today for a birthday party for a current co-worker and I had fun. I wasn't sure I was going to because I didn't really know how every one there felt about me. It was good; we had fun and drank and now I get to go to sleep and go to a wedding where there is NO alcohol... booooo... then another party tomorrow night, then easter, THEN the gym again monday night. YAY gym!

This past week.

This past week as been good to me. I played D&D with some friends, went to the Gym with Sara (which is a first for me since high school) and started a new project which I'm rather excited about.

First let me touch on the D&D game with my friends. You can read about it here. We currently meet every other saturday which is good. It allows everyone enough time to not get sick of it. I'm a little disapointed in the fact that with my new job I may have to work every Saturday. This really sucks because we just started this ritual a month ago. =(

The gym was fun, we only stayed for about a half an hour because Sara had to get to a bridal shower. I used the short stay to test myslef out on the equipment and see how worse off I am now compared to when I was in high school; which is the last time I went to a gym. The result you ask? Bad. I used to be able to leg press 500 lbs. (the max on the machine), I couldn't even move 500 lbs today and 250 lbs. gave me some trouble. I also tried the elliptical and was able to burn 75 calories in my little 10 minutes workout. Again, disappointing, just like the upper body workout I did. The result of this failed outting to the gym? I'm going to go 3 days a week and start off slow doing a total a body workout. I know I'm in better shape then a lot of other people I just need to work on the cardio hardcore and then tone up my muscles again.

This may sound a little unoriginal but I'm going to keep a weekly record of my gym progress on here. I'll update it every friday-ish. Why unoriginal? Because my buddy Jeremiah has been doing it for some time now.

Now my new project.
I'm almost apprehensive about posting it because I know how I am and I've tried this one before. Usually when I start something long term like this I don't follow through with it at all. I get a little ways in to it and then either lose interest in it or just give up.
So without any further or do here it is. I'm starting my own RPG game. I've talked about D&D and I've seen GURPS, Vampire, and all the others out there and I think, "Why can't I do that? Why can't I make an RPG the way I want to see it?" I won't give any details about it right now but I will give periodic updates on my progress. I will also ask that you lovely readers, both of you, poke and prod my on occasion to see how my progress is going.

That's all for now. I have a project to work on.

New Job

I had an interview today for Sangertown Mall Security. It went well and I start in two weeks. I've been wanting this job for around 3 months now. Simply for the fact that I really (I mean REALLY) need the money. $1.50 an hour more, more than twice the hours, and awesome benefits.

So that's what I did today, how about you?

Birthdays!

Oh man! Where does the time go? I deffinatly meant to update this A LOT sooner than I am. This past weekend was so busy and SO much fun. Let's break it down:

Friday, Feb 29th.
I'd been waiting for this day for quite awhile (a month actually) I finally got to start my DnD Campaign which is something that I'd been wanting to do for a long time and then leaving with me with a month was just "gamers hell". Granted it was a good thing because I really needed the time to prepare. If you want to see how that went then clicky here.

Saturday, March 1.
Didn't have any time to write up my DnD follow up notes on Saturday. Also didn't have time to start any new material for the next session (which will be two weeks from the 1st). I did, however, have just barely enough time to get things set up for Sara's birthday party. The party, by the way, was ok. Nothing like the other parties that I've grown accustom to having but that's what you get when you move in to a place thats "Quiet". yes I used the capital "Q" on purpose.
The party would have been ok if everyone didn't get scared of bad weather that never came. =(

Sunday, March 2.
This was actually Sara's birthday, I wished her a happy one btw. So did many other people with their crazy txt's. Now about a month ago her mom called me to tell me about these concert tickets that she had purchased for Sara. Her mom wanted me to somehow get her to take Monday off because she knew that would be out late in Syracuse (we were, for the record). Well she did get that Monday off which was good because we didn't get back untill almost 1 am. The concert we went to see... Martina McBride. Now... I don't like country music and that's me being nice about it but this concert was fun (shhhh don't tell Sara). I'm sure she knows it though, I had a blast making fun of all the hicks. I was lucky enough to be seated just behind to people with HUGE cowboy hats hahahaha I took a picture and sent it to my brother, he laughed as much as I did. Then there was the stereotypical red neck on the other side of the aisle. Let me describe him to you in case you don't already know: Short hair, old non-brand baseball style cap, carhart jacket, old faded jeans with assorted car fluid stains and some worn out boots to match the carhart. Just looking at him made me feel like I was staring in Deliverance.
So that was fun; before the concert we went to the Dinosaur BBQ and had a fantastic meal for under $30. Rachel Ray can eat THAT (shes a big enough pop icon to use her as a reference).

Almost forgot the best part of the concert, well two of them. The first is when she sang "This Ones for the Girl's" and all the guys where singing their asses off. Makes me laugh everytime. The second was this one drunk guy (and drunk is an understatement) he was headbanging to all the country songs and throwing up the horns. hahaha and it just kept getting better as the night went on.
