It seems like forever and a day since I last blogged. Nothing too major has happened as of late, but this weekend should be pretty awesome. A bunch of us are going to Orlando tomorrow… er, today, to celebrate joint b-days - my friend Gil’s b-day (which was yesterday) and mine (upcoming on August 19) - at Islands of Adventure. Nothing like a good theme park to get the rest of the summer going!
Tonight, though, we got things off with a bang - literally - as we cheered on our beloved Jacksonville Jaguars as they defeated the visiting Atlanta Falcons in a decent preseason battle at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium. Starting with some tailgating - food, friends, even a decent game of flipcup and beer pong going on – and then came the game. The Jags still are a work in progress, but they eked out a 20-17 win. It was a lot of fun, and a long time coming to kick off the 2008 NFL season. But we’re excited about it, and excited to be season ticket holders. Should be a lot of fun, and of course, I’m hoping to see my Jags go all the way to the big dance.
And now Orlando, here we come…
Amazing… Simply amazing…
Thanks to the Thought and Theory blog from Dennis, I came across this tasty delight from the legendary Invisibl Skratch Piklz. That’s just plain crazy stuff going on - from three different DJs at the same time! This is turntablism at its finest; can someone tell me whatever happened to the true DJs?
Not too shabby….
…so I made a return to Weight Watchers (albeit online) last month, and my weekly weigh-in was yesterday. Upon weighing myself, I found that I HAVE LOST 14 lbs! That’s just crazy – I went from 188 to 174, almost half of my ultimate goal. But I’m happy with it so far; it hasn’t been too hard this time around (I did Weight Watchers about two years ago) and I just might be learning how to portion my food out again, haha!
Wonder if I look any thinner?!?
