    I’m listening to the cardio playlist this afternoon at work and it really helps to get the blood flowing again after that lunchtime nap.

  • Milk and cookies

    I forgot to bring my lunch to work today, and ended up falling into a deep sleep at lunch anyway (thanks to staying up to midnight last night, watching the Yankee game). So I went down to the mall a few minutes ago and got 2 large, fresh Larry’s Cookies for lunch, along with two…

  • Baseball is back!

    I did manage to stay up last night and watch all but the bottom of the 9th inning of the opening day game of the Yankees and Oakland. It was a great game, and I got to watch the powerful Yankee office beat Oakland 15-2. In fact, they knocked Barry Zito out of the game…

  • Writing

    I edited the first 19 pages of “Graveyard Shift” and also wrote the first of several new sections, which adds an important subplot to the story. All told, I added about 500 words of new material to the story, but I also trimmed a little from the first 19 pages. I think the second draft…

  • One mile run

    04 Apr 2006 » 1 min read

    I beta tested my cardio play list a little while ago when I went for a one mile walk, followed by a one mile run. It was the first cardio exercise I’ve done since last summer. I managed the entire mile without having to stop, although I jogged at a very slow pace. The music…

  • The world of high finance

    I have stock in an energy company. Energy companies (gas, electric, etc.) are supposed to be very stable companies in which to invest and this company has been very stable, with steadily increasing stock prices, right up until the time I obtained my stock. Since that time, the stock price has fallen (plummeted would be…

  • 1,000th book!

    03 Apr 2006 » 1 min read about Reading & Books

    I got my 1,000th book today. I picked up James Morrow’s The Last Witchfinder at Borders. Given my current pending reading list, I probably won’t get to this book until sometime over the summer, but I’ve been a big fan of James Morrow’s previous books and I felt this was a worth book for number…

    I caught a link to this site (http://www.empireonline.com/features/50greatestindependent/50-41.asp) on digg.com this morning. I went through the list of films and here are the one’s that I have actually seen. I’ve rated them in order of my most favorite to least favorite. The number after is the ranking on the top 50 list itself. 1. Lost…

  • Cardio Playlist (beta)

    02 Apr 2006 » 1 min read about Music & Arts

    I’ve put together a cariod workout playlist, which I plan to beta test as part of my new cardio routine beginning tomorrow. The list is below. I’m open to suggestions of songs that you’ve found work well in your own workouts. (Note: I list them in their default order, but I always play the list…
