Why I like photography...

- I can't draw! I figure a camera can capture an
image better than I do.
- It can be technical. There's so much to learn
about F-stops, ISO, Spot-metering etc.

However...
- It's expensive! A decent DSLR camera body & lens
can lighten your wallet/purse of about $2,000.
And it never ends! There will always be the
latest and greatest photography gear.

Unfortunately, I didn't run today. Running is sooo
boring and I've other things to do. I did lift
a little though. And I tried as much as I could to
catch up on work.

Tried new beers last night; Kwak, Christoffel
Blonde and Leipziger. Interesting flavors... The
fries and onion rings that came with it didn't
help my weightloss effort. But then again,
"In heaven there is no beer, that's why we drink it here..."

I'm back to work and as usual, things piled up.

Ran for 20 minutes this morning. then lifted
after. My endurance is sooo bad that by lunchtime
I'm ready for a nap.

My goal is to run 25 miles per week. Assuming I
workout 5 days/week, that means 5 miles a day. I
can't run 5 miles straight (yet). So I figure,
I'll run 2.5 miles in the morning and 2.5 miles
at night.

Quite challenging...

Took a short break from work. Worked out yesterday
and I'm very sore today... Endurance is a problem
and I'll have to work on it. If only running on a
treadmill wasn't sooo boring...

Spent the time resting and recovering; I guess I
was really tired. No wonder I easily got sick &
injured.

Got a lot of things done in the meanwhile. Caught
up on some chores, errands, movies and books.

Darn.. Still have a cold. But it's a temporary
state and I'll recover soon...

Lunar eclipse tonight. Will try to stay up late...

Last night, checked out a new bar in the
neighborhood. Tried a couple of beers I've never
tasted. Ate too much fries in the process.. Oh
well..

I've a hint for people who have problems with
viruses (virii?), trojans and other problems with
their Windows computers; Try Linux!

Despite what the naysayers have predicted, Linux
is alive and well. And competitive with
closed-source operating systems.

Went to lunch with friends. Very interesting
talking with dedicated teachers; they're very
devoted to their craft.

Fairly lazy day. Stayed home after; I'm sooo
lacking in energy. I had to sleep early.

Finally I get some good sleep! I guess i have to
sleep early more often... Woke up early, worked
out. Still some slight toe pain but my lower back
seems to be well. Started to lift very light and
very slow. Argghhh... I never knew stretching was
painful. Used to be able to do a lot more but my
current lifestyle doesn't allow long hours at the
gym.

Big weekend plans but we'll see how that goes...
