mash-up

WOW!  As 2009 draws to a close let us remember all the great tunes that came along.  And what better way to appreciate the music of the past year than with the ultimate Billboard Top 25 Mashup courtesy of DJ Earworm!

Have a safe and happy new year y’all

So I know I’m several years behind on this one but I have just started watching Lost and DAMN- that show rocks!  Although, I’ve been watching behind my girlfriend’s back and she is not pleased.  One of our veteran camera guys was talking to me about his love of sci-fi (which I share) and he was baffled I hadn’t seen a single episode.  From what I hear it gets pretty bizarre in season 2 and from then on.  It’s hard avoiding major plot lines from people or stumbling upon spoilers on the internet.  I’ve got about 4 episodes left on season 1.  I’ve stopped reading and doing anything else I used to do as Lost has taken precedence over all extra-curricular activities!

I’m checking out the Manic Street Preachers concert at the Commodore tonight- should be amazing!  These guys haven’t been across the pond in over a decade.  Their new album is called “Journal For Plague Lovers”.  Check out this link to one of their best songs/videos ever.

Finally, I leave you with a nugget from the past-  did you know British actor/comedian Ricky Gervais was in a pop band called Seona Dancing?  Well, here’s the proof!

Starting week 3 and down another 2 pounds!!!

So! So far I’ve lost 7 and a half pounds, I’m eating better and FEELING GREAT. I am now addicted to walking the Demonstration Forest every day after work rain or shine. It’s about 7k’s and 10,000 steps on my pedometer. There are a whole bunch of different walks/hikes you can do up there, some longer than others. It’s just a great way to blow off steam and get your workout in at the same time. All of this while being surrounded by trees breathing in the fresh air. We are SOOOO lucky to live where we do; I was totally missing out not getting out there sooner.

Chat later in the week!

Okay! It’s been one WHOLE week and I’ve lost…..wait for it……5.6 pounds!!! Tah dahhhhhh!

So I have another 17 to go, but I’m celebrating the little victories here. I know most of what I have lost is water, but the main thing is I’m feeling way better, and have a lot more energy.  And that’s the MAIN THING!! Fabulous! It just makes me want to stay on track, and fit into those Rock’n Republics hanging on the back of my bedroom door. I have a feeling that I’m going to end up becoming one of those HEALTHY people that used to annoy me…but WHO CARES! Well Kyle might…HAHA!

Thanks again for all of your support  and comments on my blog as well as on facebook. Keep’em coming, and good luck with your spring shape up! Tell me how you’re doing!

Talk to you soon!
