Starting to pull it together a bit more during these evenings where I’m up to some ungodly hour. I’m also getting the hand of prioritizing. That’s something I can use. I can also use a few minutes to jot down…
Some Thoughts:
- The wise man is the one who rides the free HBO service for a month and the proceedes to pay absolute rock bottom for said service through negotiation with and manipulation of the Directv personnel, playing on their intrinsic (read: scripted and internalized) understanding of your value as a long time customer. I will have my Game of Thrones.
- After nearly a week, this proof of concept 2000 calorie diet is completely doable. I believe I’ll be down five pounds by tuesday and I don’t feel all that hungry ever. Next, I have to start looking at what kind of calories I’m putting in my body. Ending the night on a slice of cheesecake wasn’t epic. Still, I am proud of myself for saving enough calories in order to make that moment a reality.
- Speaking of proud, I’m super proud of my boys. Their athlete side is starting to show. The mid in particular deserves a shout. The kid played a morning rec league soccer game in an older age bracket (10-12 and he turned 9 this month) and managed two goals. Later that day he went on to rip of a great TD run and 1 pt conversion. This is on top of playing excellent defense.
- At some point I’m going to have to stop announcing he’s so young for his age bracket. I mean, either you play with them or not. They don’t care how old you are…
