thank you to those wonderful people who sent birthday wishes my way on wednesday i had a pretty cool day. kicked back and relaxed as i expected to. got awesome gifts too, the kind that show that someone has thought about it. i appreciate that so much more.

i'm doing pretty good on the eating plan so far. i did a quick check to see what is recommended calorie-wise for someone of my height and weight..... they suggest 1930 calories per day. on that basis, i guess i feel pretty good as i'm averaging about 1000. i'll increase my calorie intake next week whilst increasing my exercise regime. back to regular saturday morning football sessions so that's a plus. i've definitely lost some pounds this week, and i'm feeling pretty bad ass about it. i'm less bad ass about the fact i had to shave for this meeting today! pah! i'd had a kickass face full of fuzz for a while. got some comedy pics during the process though, so it's not all bad

time to do some work. or maybe it's time to get some guitar tabs. yes. i like that better. out.
