There's a chill in the air...
According to my email from Bootlegger. I don't know why find spam/advertising email subject lines amusing but I do. When you think about it, it is kind of weird to get emails from companies, especially ones that use your name as if you're old friends...but I didn't come here to talk about ads so enough about that.
Things have been good but busy. Work is still struggling with Alma and I've been mostly working on ordering and editing code for our work wiki. Nothing too exciting happened on the work front. John and I have been going to the gym almost every night this week and we've been trying out different equipment. It's been fun although I do find the weights section a little intimidating because it's always full of muscular people who look so intense and I'm here like "I have no idea what I'm doing, I'm going back to cardio". I haven't lost any weight but I've already noticed a slight change already. My belly's not poking out as much and I have more energy in the evenings now.
I also found out there's a bowling legaue at MUN which I signed up for. It's every week on Thursday and not too expensive, only 16 bucks a week for three games. I love bowling though and don't get enough opportunities to play so I'm excited. I just hope I don't feel too awkward in the crowd because I'm sure it will be a bunch of people from the campus that I've never met before. But hey, it's a bit more exercise.
The craft/flea market sale is tomorrow and I so do not have enough craft stuff to sell. I'm going to try and fix that this afternoon and tonight but at least I have a bunch of books to sell. Besides, who knows? Maybe the less I'll have to sell the more likely I'll sell what I have? I've never sold at a flea market before and I really just signed up to see if I could sell any second hand books there. I have a lot of books I need though not necessary want to get rid of and I figure if I can sell them that might motivate me to clear out my book collection a little. Second hand books I have no trouble giving away but I've a hard time just handing over books I bought new.
So that's been my week, I hope everyone else has been well.

Selling books is hard but last i sold at a flea market books are very popular. Unless its a jamie oliver cookbook. Ive never seen do many of his books for "Get these out of my store" pricing. Thats sad.
Weights can be addicting so be careful. I started bulking up to much i was having so much fun. Now i wont let myself get o past 2 pounds do i just stay awesome.

I will be but so fair I haven't found it very enticing. I've always preferred carido and swimming since I can let my mind wander more. Weights require more concentration and the machines are all set up next mirrors, unlike the cardio equipment which over looks the pool area. It's way more entertaining to watch the divers practice than myself in the mirror lol.
