P90X

I officially started Power 90 X today.  I have ordered this before and tried it but I thought that 90 days of straight workout days was a little excessive.  Anyway, now I have time to accomplish such a task.  I obtained the copy from my borther-in-law who burned me a copy to some blank disks.  I will hopefully be ripped and lean when this thing is over with but we will see.  That is all I have to say.

New Blog

I have started a new blog called My Corvair.  It is dedicated solely to the restoration of my 1966 Chevy Corvair.  If you would like to visit and read up on its progress just visit mycorvair.wordpress.com.

Thank you and enjoy,

The End

It’s Been a While…

Well, it’s been a long time since I have taken the time to post a comment here on my page.   I just started a new job about 5 months ago, and I have a lot of down time.  So what better way to use my time than to do what I love and that is to write on my blog!

The only thing that I regret about not writing in the past year or so is that I missed so much.  I like to write because when I go back and read my old posts I get to view a snapshot of my thoughts during various points in my life.  Unfortunately, the past year has been a remarkable year littered with life changing events.  I graduated college in May of 2001.  Of course this was not only the culmination of my hard work as a student but it marked the end of my reign as president of the student body, and I got the privilege of speaking at my graduation.  During that summer, I had my first big break up from a year and a half long relationship, which ultimately led to the purchase of my first motorcycle.  Honda VTX 1300 C.  Great motorcycle!! I got the opportunity to work at my favorite music store, Sound of Music, for the Christmas season.  This just reaffirmed my desire to own my own business one day, especially a music store.  I moved out of my parents house, FINALLY!  Lastly, I started a new career with the Indiana Gaming Commission.  I actually graduted an abbreviated version of the police academy which is sort of my dream but this job hasn’t met the par that I have set for my law enforcement potential.

These are just a few of the significant events that have occurred in the past year or so that I have missed out of, but as I think about it, I would have missed out on a lot because I spend so much time writing.  I think that this new job, though, caters to my desire to write since I have so much down time.  As a matter of fact, it is 9:07 in the morning and I have been here since 6:00, and I have done nothing but surf the internet all morning.

Anyway, I will talk to you soon!!
