Nothing new, but I did almost forget today. I did a tad extra today (one extra set) and I don't feel too bad. Debating if I want to go ahead and take it from 3 days to 4 or 5.
Maybe I shouldn't make hasty decisions...

Session 2, done!
So far, still with it. I will be honest, I am going very slow. Sun, Tue, and Thur are what I am starting out with. This schedule is the one I am least likely to make excuses to get out of. I am only going long enough till I can feel the pain and get the heart rate up for a very short while. Less than 5 minutes and I feel like I am going to be sick... I will definitely need to take this slow. I do not want to get sick or injure myself. My short term goal is to be up to 15 continuous minutes by the end of the month.
My object here is health and size; weight loss is not my goal. I am actually happy with how much I weigh, just not my size or overall health.

Find a way to get it done...
...and stop finding excuses to put it off.
Ok, it is official.. however quiet I am trying to keep it. I have begun to work out.
I realized the other day that the pants I bought less than a year ago were too snug on me, my size M shirts are too snug around the middle, and I am all out exhausted from walking too and from my car at the office. It is time for change.
I will put measurements up this week, right now, I am already exhausted from less than 10 minutes of exercising.
This is going to be a long ride ... :(

Dollar coins are goooood!
I got an chain-email today talking about refusing the new dollar coins. I am not going to ask you to reprint this if you agree, but If you receive said email, think about the following before you act.
The dollar coin is a great thing we could do to help our economy; the more people refuse them the more damage is done to the recovery of the economy.
Simple facts:
1. A strong economy is built by churn (or transactions). The more transactions the more churn, the stronger the economy.
2. People are far more likely to spend a coin than a bill. Coins go into machines and used ...for coffee... bills stagnate and are collected and traded in to get larger bills which are often just put into the bank.
3. Coins have a longer lifespan and the total cost of life is less. E.g. say it costs 3 cents to make a dollar coin but 1 cent to make a paper dollar. However, the coin will last 3.5 times as long while the dollar is removed from circulation, destroyed, reprinted etc, which actually brings a 1 dollar bill up to 3 cents for the lifespan. Take that into consideration of the dollar bill's 8 year lifespan and the coins 30 year lifespan. These particular numbers are not perfect, but they are a decent parallel.
4. Counterfeit coins, while they do exist, are not profitable for the criminals.
5. If a coin isn't spent, it is often stored away in a jar somehow. Most people, when they collect those jars of coins and trade them in, immediately spend the money they condensed. They have effectively removed currency from the system for a short while, and then caused a transaction.
The EU has proven this with the 1 and 2 Euro coins. The Euro is kicking the crap out of the dollar and this is actually one of the reasons. Yes there are a lot of reasons, but the ability of the currency to force itself to flow and create transactions is good for the economy and the currency.

Brew Review
I am going to start trying to put down my Beer reviews on here...as much as I can anyway...
This week: Avalanche Ale
http://www.breckbrew.com/beer/avalanche.html
This is my second beer from breckenridge and I am still not convinced. It is not bad, just not really my preference. It is much sweeter than I like, and very light in other flavour.
The aroma is also very generic... I do not really get anyting distinctive.
The colour is very nice, exactly what I expect from an amber.
I will not avoid this beer int he future, but I will not seek it out either. I am hoping the other beers in the sampler I have are better.
