Today I did something that I haven’t done in a long while. I called out of work. It all started last night. About an hour after dinner I began to develop a headache. It wasn’t anything overly painful, just one of those nagging headaches that doesn’t seem to go away. I went about my usual nightly routine and headed down to my basement to complete another night of Insanity. My thought was that as I exercised, my body would release …

On Monday of last week I made the decision to change gears with my exercise routine. I was trying to decide if I wanted to do another round of Focus T25 (Beta / Gamma Hybrid) or if I wanted to give Insanity another try. Stephen, a friend on Facebook, suggested that we both start up the Insanity program together. Like myself, Stephen started the program once before but didn’t see it through.

A couple of weeks back I wrote an update which outlined what I’ve been reading as of late. In that update I said that when I finished Fool’s Assassin by Robin Hobb, I would go ahead and put together a review like I’ve done in the past. Well, here’s the thing, I don’t wanna… Before I started reading Fool’s Assassin, I was very excited. I missed the world of Fitz and was eager to visit once again. I even went …

Given the purpose of the room, I wasn’t all that concerned with the way it looked. As long as it functioned the way I needed it …
I’m the type of person that wants to know what illness is going to lead to my premature death. When I get the sniffles, the first thing I do is log onto WebMD and check to see if my symptoms lead to some rare exotic disease that I picked up somewhere in my dull day to day activities. My wife is coming down the home stretch in nursing school and is easily annoyed by my WebMD habits. She gives me …
A little more than a year ago I made the decision that it was time for me to lose some weight. I didn’t want to be a fat dad that couldn’t run and play with my daughter without regular breaks to catch my breath. I began a running routine followed by time in the gym. Slowly but surely the weight was coming off and I felt great. Over a series of months I dropped nearly 40 pounds and was eager …
