I've started going to MMA classes three nights a week now, and will probably start going four or five nights a week next month in an effort to increase my activity level to promote more weight loss as well as improve my overall emotional health as well as phjysical. (stress-relief, endorphine rushes, etc.)
Just one problem...
I am starting to cramp-up after every class!!
Not always immediately, mind you, but almost always sometime when I settle down to rest in the next twelve hours afterward, and always in my legs! I've been streching immediately after every class and making sure to hydrate, and it's been working so far. I still cramp-up, but not so intensely or painfully....just a small one while I'm sleeping that I can easily work out usually.
But last night I had one so bad I nearly started screaming. I guess I let myself get too cold afterward. I'm still feeling the pain in my legs from it even now!
I welcome and would be thankful for any suggestions?

Ok...I'm back.
SG is like the Mafia...
...they made me an offer I could'nt refuse!
I'm probably just going to lurk and just look at the sets. So if you don't hear from me, don't worry, I'm not dead and my corpse is not rotting away in my home without anyone to find me (I'd post about that and let you know first.
)

I think I might be leaving SG.
It's not that I hate it or anything....it's just that I don't use it that much anymore.
I hardly talk to anyone on here, and few people, if ANY talk to me.
Hell, I really don't even look at the new sets anymore!
This site has done quite alot for me. Since joining I have grown in ways that I would'nt have had I not joined.
I'm more confident. I like myself now, whereas when I first came here I was shy and self-loathing.
Most of the people I've met on here have been some of the best I've ever known. There have been a few I disagreed or did'nt get along with, but that's just life. You can't please everyone.
I have become a different and much better man because of this site...and I will be eternally grateful for that.
Anyway, on a lighter note, I finally got enough 'stache to style it.
Whaddya think?
Please forgive the quality. I took this pic with my phone, with the sun in my eyes. But you can at least get a good look at my handlebars now.
Well, that's all for now...dunno when I'll be back.

Just a quick post today.
The 'stache is coming in nicely...in fact it's irritating me! It's almost to the point where I NEED mustache wax just to keep the whiskers out of my mouth. See?
Also on the news front, apparently, I have a girlfriend now!!
Shocked the hell outta me too. I'm not complaining...I'm just shocked that it finally happened for me.
Anyway, that's all for now

Ok...I finally did it. I joined Facebook.
You can find me there under the same screen name here. Just search for "Khorsaun"
(I'll post a link later once I figure out how)
I must warn you...I've become addicted to some of the games there. Especially Castleville. So please excuse any annoying requests from me should you friend me there.
I've started growing the 'stache. It's coming in pretty nicely...pics later.

So I'm thinking of shaving my head bald and my beard off completely and growing a handlebar mustache. Y'know, the kind of mustache that you would use wax on to purposely curl them upward in the Victorian-Era style, keeping my earrings and glasses of course. I think it would look kind of steampunk.
What do y'all think? (those of you that actually laeve me replies that is.)

I've got my computer built...and it's alot more than I'm used to.
12 GBs of RAM
2TB Hard Drive @ 7200 RPMs with a 64 MB cache
3.20 Ghz per core, quad core processor w/ 8 MB of smart cache
A Radeon HD 6970 2 GB DDR5 video card (actually, it's more like a brick) with an HDMI I/O port so I can view this on my HD TV
I know those of you who don't know anything about computers won't know what the hell I'm talking about, and those of you who do probably don't think it's that powerful...but it's a helluva lot more than I've ever had! I can run WoW and CoH at full resolution and graphics without any lag! And I plan on upgrading later. I'll crossfire another video card (same one) doubling my video quality or better, adding another 4 GBs of RAM once I need it, and adding another 6 TBs of hard drive later. Perhaps one day I'll splurge and put out the cash for an extremem Hex-Core processor with more than 3.20 Ghz per core.
Anyway, on to what's been going on in my life. Some of you may have noticed from my picture that I finally cut off the ponytail. It was time. It was starting to be a hassle to take care of it. besides, I had a good excuse...I got head lice. (pause for everyone to say "eww" and "gross")
Let me explain.
Every Sunday, I go over to a friends house for a D&D session. They have children. Those children love me...I guess 'cause to them, I look like a big Teddy Bear that they can play with. Anyway, I go over one Suday, the children come give me a hug as usual, I play with them a bit, the usual. A few days later, I'm informed by the childrens parents that they have head lice! I check my head, have a relative check my head, neither of us find lice or nits and we all breathe a sigh of relief. One week later I'm combing my hair, pull out the comb and look at it. What do I see? A louse!
I go out that morning buy the shampoo kit and some electric clippers. I buzz my head, wash with the shampoo, strip my bed clothes and pillows and burn them along with the clipped hair, wash what's left of my hair with the shampoo, spray down my mattress and surrounding area with the spray.
Have'nt seen one since. This was back in the summer, and my head felt so good without all that hair that I've been trimming that way ever since.
Let's see, what else...oh, I've lost 15 pounds!
My friend that was teaching my American Kenpo Karate never came through with teaching again, and that Brazilian Jui Jutsu place closed down, so I went looking for somewhere else. And I think I've found it. It's called Without Limits MMA. Yes, I said MMA! Mixed Martial Arts. Since September I've been taking their Cardio-Kickboxing class for an hour, twice a week. They've been kicking my ass into shape....an I'm starting to like it! hehehe
I've also found a way to get out of the debt I'm in. It's going to take me 3 years to do, but after that I'll be free and clear.
And most importantly...*sigh* I hate saying it, but here goes...last night I lost my virginity!
That's right! I was a 38 year old virgin. WAS.
A friend of mine introduced me to a woman a couple of weeks ago. We hit it off, started talking on the phone and went out on a few dates. She knew about my virginity (she wheedled it out of me), and last night she was feeling amorous and well...it happened! I'm still a little too shy to go into much futher detail other that to say this: She said that while I was'nt the greatest, I still did pretty good. (I was gentleman enought to make damn sure she was satisfied first....shit! I'm blushing!:blush
I still feel kinda guilty. It was'nt for love. I don't think she was in love with me either....I'm pretty sure she was just looking for satifaction as well, but still. Part of me feels bad for not waiting for someone I was in love with. I do really like her, but just like is all. *sigh*
I will be eternally grateful to her for helping me get that out of the way, and for not making it something nasty (well, not too nasty :blush
I really do feel different. Not better or worse...just different.
Anyway, that's all I've got for you right now. See y'all around.

I know I promised you a detaled post...but unfortunately, my computer is on the fritz.
I'm actually posting this with my kindle, but it's a pain in the ass because it's so slow and the keys are too small for my fat fingers. LOL!
I'm not that bummed about my comp crashing since I had planned on building a new one anyway, but it's going to be some trouble getting some of the stuff left on my hard drive.
That'll teach me to do proper backups won't it.
Anyway, it'll be a little longer before I'm fully up and running again...so I beg your patience.
Ill still be lurking though!
