Roswell Called
Category: work
So here I am sitting at work till 9 and no one is around. I know that roswell called but I have no idea what they said and it is driving me crazy. (e:matthew) apparently knows but didn't feel like it was important enough to tell me by email, or to call my office. Apparently, an anonymous "Roswell called" in the chat was good enough. Thanks.

We used to be able to get our answering machine messages via the internet. The problem was that we could not hear the people leaving messages as it was just voicemail. It was good in one way because i could get the message from anywhere. It was bad because we would just ignore them most of the time as we never heard the people actually speak and plead for us to pick up the phone.

I wish that he could have given me a little more feedback as to the situation. Now I have to sit here for 3 hours and just wait, while driving myself insane thinking about it.

Still Working Out
Category: body
So my workout schedule is still working for me. The weights are beginning to be much easier to lift. The ones I could only lift ten at a time before I can now lift 25 times so I guess it is time to start changing the amount of weight. Well, actually I would rather wait one more week till I do it, because I don't want to risk hurting myself as I am in no rush.

I only work out like 20 minutes a day. That seems ok. It makes me feel happy too afterwards. A similar feeling to smoking a cigarette. It makes me wonder if half of the draw of a cigarrette is that it makes your body feel like you did something.

I still have a long way to go before I am the size I want to be - like the guy in that yoga book [inlink]paul,3941[/inlink], but here is a preview of my arms.

UPDATE: We discussed this painting in (e:paul,46890) where (e:james) suggested that it is by William-Adolphe Bouguereau.

NOOO I am supposed to be the stronger brother!!! (and trust me I used the term strong loosely) but my weakness was always stronger than you at least!

Hey Paul, if it's easy to do 25 reps with the weights your currently using, and you're not ready to go to a higher weight, try doing your reps real slowly - that will increase the strength of your core muscles before you move on to the heavier weight. You're probably ready to increase a few pounds though.

Google Maps
Category: maps
I was watching a couple minutes of the Geraldo show about sex offenders that escaped from New Orleans. I noticed that in the computer screen at the police station they were using google maps to track them.

Jimmy Macs
Category: food
As part of my gain weight plan, I went to Jimmy Mac's with Katie tonight to eat one of their death inducing bacon cheeseburgers. Once again we were the only diners in the place. I don't understand why this place is failing. Now I know that it is a Monday night but it seems really strange. Katie thinks that it is because it looks too fancy on the outside. (e:terry) says it is because their sandwiches cost $1.00 too much at $8.50. I honetsly thing that the price is not bad considering that it is a 3/4lb burger and you get an insane amount of giant fries and a pickle. For that much food you would spend the same at Wendy's.

Katie seemed pretty excited that (e:matthew) has awaiting list of 12 kids for the day care center they plan on opening.
