Mike in Real Life

Me, and things

Winebottler, EVEMon and EFT (with Steam for good measure)

For all the EVE players out there on the Mac, there is not a fully functional skill queue planner and fitting tool. Fear not, my capsuleer friends, because you can run them on your Mac through Wine. (Youcan also run Steam and play a number of Steam powered games, like torchlight)

Day 5 – Insert Attempted Witty Title Here

More weights last night. Upped it to two sets of ten. Doing things slowly, going to work up to two sets of 15, then split it to three sets of eleven. Once I hit three sets of fifteen, add more weight and break it down to three sets of ten, working back up again to three sets of fifteen and repeat.

More running tonight.


Day 4 – 37º and it Will Only Get Colder

Improvement over Tuesday, going to work on increasing my speed the next, which will be in two days.

Not in anywhere near as much pain this time around, which is definitely a good thing.


Day 3 – A Couple Days Late

This was last night (or early this morning depending on how you look at it).

Did more weight lifting, same stuff as day two, except upped it to two sets of 9 reps.

As soon as she is here for the boys, going for a run tonight in the cold. I cannot wait…


Missed Two Days

I have not given up.  Thursday I was…indisposed.  I was going to run yesterday, but I have the boys and Mom was not home.  Going to hit the weights tonight after bedtime and run after she gets the boys tomorrow.

Day 2 – A New, Albeit Better Feeling, Pain

First day of weight lifting, more running tomorrow, and it, well, hurts, but definitely in a good way. Now, look, I know you are supposed to do 3 sets of so many reps, and I will start doing that, but I just need to start by getting a feel for the whole weight lifting thing again, because I have not done it in a very very long time.

3 Reasons Why Today’s Mall Trip Was Interesting

Wading through the queue to connect to EVE SiSi for supercap weekend, its a long wait, so I decided to hit the mall and get Demon’s Souls. Definitely a worthwhile trip for three reasons:

1. I got carded for a video game. Anyone who looks under 30? Must be the Dragonball Z t-shirt.

2. As I was heading to the exit, I saw a 10 year old kid with the beer pong game. I guess it is always good to start young so you are prepared for college.

3. Getting ready to pull out of the parking space, a van parks next to me, the trunk pops open, and kids pour out of the back off the floor boards. There was a full second row seat, but no third row seating.

Always a good idea to remain aware of what’s going on around you, because you never know what you will miss otherwise.
