LSU v Clemson
Anyone watching this evening? Having this on a Monday makes it difficult to have, like, a Super Bowl Party type gathering. I may have some chicken wings, but likely will not. I guess I am rooting for LSU, because it would be nice to have a different team than Clemson or Alabama win. Otherwise, I really have no dog in this…

Need a new fitness tracker
My fitbit died and they don't make the model I like anymore. So I need a new tracker. It can be another fitbit or it can be another brand. I mainly want a HR monitor and an accelerometer along with basic step tracking. It would be nice if it were at least water resistant and had the ability to track other activity like…

No more stomach issues
When I was at my fattest, it was not uncommon that certain foods would have a negative impact on my stomach. Spicy food, milk, red meat, and others all could have been the spark of an unpleasant night of stomach issues and heart burn. The other night, I realized this doesn't happen anymore. Almost not at all. I can't…

Anti-love songs
Just to make today all-inclusive - there are a number of "love stinks" or "I don't love you anymore" kind of songs (including, "Love Stinks") out there. My favorite is "Break your heart" by Barenaked Ladies, because it sounds like a traditional love song, but the words say otherwise: "And if I always seem distracted Like…

Office Gifts
I got promoted this year (hooray, but that's not the point) and am in a new office with 6 other people who are in similar positions and we work as a "team." anyway, i need to get them all a gift. obviously nothing huge (<$20 probably), but a little token to say "thanks for welcoming me, and teaching me the ropes." or…

New guy
A wise man once said "Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son." So I decided I would get rid of the fat and see how I do with the other two. :wink: I'm 37 and have always been a little overweight. A couple years ago, I went from a semi-active job of teaching/training to one where I was sitting 10 hours a…
