First, a refresher! as you should know by now (and if not, Shame on you!) my wife, Amiee, and I have decided to get healthier. To that effect we have joined a local gym. Our plan is to go three times a week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) early in the morning. By early I mean 5:30, which comes twice a day. Who knew?! That part didn’t work too well this morning as neither of us slept well AT ALL! So, today instead of going early we went after we got off work today. Man, was that a mistake! The gym was WAY crowded and neither of us like a crowded gym at all. Having to wait for all the machines and the shower after made for a less enjoyable trip to the gym this evening. Oh well, now we know from experience why we want to go to the gym early when we go.
We’ve gotten through our first week, and WOW! That was ruff! I’m really hoping we’re past all the pain. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to walk normally ever again. I can certainly feel my muscles (some of which I had no idea I had) after this last work-out today but they don’t hurt like they did last week. I’m really looking forward to more work-outs! Getting started on this was much more enjoyable and painful than I thought! YAY, FOR MY NOT BEING A FAT SLOB ANYMORE!
And in other news! I’m dropping off Boo with the vet tomorrow. We’re getting him fixed. Soon we won’t have to worry about “little Boos” any more! Happy face! And because I can’t NOT mention it, the iPad launched this past Saturday. And the under-powered giant iPod Touch sold 300,000 units launch day. Enough to be considered a success for Apple, but few enough to wonder if Apple thinks it’s a success “behind closed doors.” Especially considering it’s only slightly more than the original iPhone (250,000 units) and vastly less than the iPhone 3G and 3GS (1 million units each). I only hope that these sales figures will make Apple realize that they need to do more than just blow-up an iPod Touch and expect it to be a run away hit. Any innovation would be an improvement, or they could just put an iPad 2.0 out next year and make it what it should have been originally. Either way, improvements are needed for those that have already bought it. And by improvements I really am mostly referring multitasking. Who knows, that could be announced as part of the 4.0 update being shown off on Thursday.
Well, that’s about all for now! I have a whiny puppy to tend to!
