So I've finally started to workout again for the first time this year since I sprained my ankle and had a small fracture a few months ago. Taking baby steps since I don't want to hurt it again. Still feels a little weird after a long day of standing on it, but it feels a ton better after working out. I've really needed to stretch the muscles a little. Going to try and lose all that damn weight that I've gained since Jessica became pregnant.
Also started eating breakfast every morning and drinking a crap load of water. It's the little things.
Current Mood : Worked out... tired.

How I Relax
Today was a long day. This weekend was a long weekend. Now I'm staying up way too late, just because I feel like relaxing for a good long while. I picked up some Habit Burger on the way home, took a bath, played a lot of guitar, and watched mindless action on TV. Now I'm wrapping this up by reading about movies that are in various stages of production.
One awesome example is Actor/Director/Writer Shane Black. Looks like he has a working script for a Death Note movie. And apparently he is one of the few that "gets it". Hearing him talk about it gets me very excited. I watched the anime, and, of course, it is over the top Japanese. But the premise and feel of the show as a whole was very dark and awesome. The main character is basically the villain of the story, but things are definitely not black and white.
I have high hopes Mr. Black. Don't F*&$ it up.

A Morbid Post
Due to the events of the Boston Marathon today, I got to thinking about a conversation I had with someone or other about how I'd like to die. At the time, I couldn't really think of a good answer, so I said, "In a blaze of glory fighting off zombies". Now, due to the unrealistic nature of this scenario, it probably won't happen.
Instead, I've come up with an alternate death. I have always found the deaths of the people who climb Mount Everest very interesting. Due to the extremely high altitude, bodies do not decompose well, if at all (depending upon location, etc...). Here is a good link describing it, dead-bodies-on-mount-everest. Dying there effectively immortalizes those who died, because it is too hard to recover the bodies, and they won't decompose. I think that would be my ideal answer.
However, there is no way in hell I'd attempt a climb like that. I have crappy lungs as it is, and an awesome wife and child on the way that would miss me.

Tunnel Snakes and Toilet Frogs
This is way old. But I get a kick out of it.

On a sort of related note... toilet frogs. Kinda like a tunnel snake. Apparently it is more common than you think.
Current Mood : "Uh, so I go through these thousands of lines of code and, uh... it doesn't really matter. I uh, I don't like my job, and, uh, I don't think I'm gonna go anymore."

Realizations
So I realized that I probably have a few hundred Magic: The Gathering cards floating around my parents garage that I got when I was like, 10, or something... That is unless they got rid of them, like I probably said to do. Who knows. I might have gotten rid of them myself. But the fact of the matter is, I looked online to see if they were worth anything. Turns out I think I had maybe 2 cards worth $100 each. If I remember, I'll have to check with the parents next time I go down to visit... which probably won't be til after the baby.
Oh yeah, we are learning a little American Sign Language to do some baby sign language with. So far I know how to say "eat cat poop". It's the best swearing I can do so far with what I know.
Peace.

Current Music : Harlem Shake. Yeah. You know it.
