Harry Potter I

I read the first Harry Potter book during the drive down to Utah last week and I really enjoyed it. I think part of the reason I liked it so much was J.K. Rowlings imagination reminds me a lot of my own.

Uh oh! Mary bought some Tae Bo fitness videos today at lunchtime. I don’t know if it’s going to be safe to go over to her apartment any more now :) .

My current fitness regimen consists mainly of riding my bike (on trackstand) while playing NCAA Football 99.

Assorted Stuff

Here’s a fairly complete list of MacOS 9 compatible software updates from MacFixit. Okay, I think I’ve managed to upgrade to MacOS 9 without any serious issues. Now it’s time to track down a few software updates. Now where was that page I saw with a comprehensive list?

Just what is deepleap?

Well, not only am I out of shape, but I’m rusty at NCAA Football 99 as well. The good news is that I was able to win a game after losing my first of the season. My new CycleOps Fluid Trainer works splendidly.

In an effort to start getting back into decent shape I’m going to go shopping for one of these today. Ironically this probably means I’ll start using my Playstation again. I can honestly say that I’ve used it more times while exercising than without.

I’ve been debating a lot lately whether or not I want to get the whole Fireworks/Dreamweaver package or just Fireworks. Decisions, decisions…

Apple Cup Time

Well, it’s Apple Cup weekend here in the state of Washington. Today’s game will be the 92nd meeting between the WSU Cougars and the Washington Huskies. Unfortunately I’m going to have to miss the first half because of basketball practice.

Speaking of basketball practice- yesterday I was made painfully aware of my lack of physical conditioning when I had to take part in several basketball drills and full court play with the Ferris JV team. Too much computer time the last several months I think.

Back to the Apple Cup: Washington coach Rick Neuheisel’s comments on the 1999 Apple Cup.

Up to the minute stats on Apple Cup 1999. Game time is 12:30 pm PST.

Biking Shape

I rode my bike to work again for the first time this week. On the way home I was pretty pleased with the ease I was able to blow by another biker going up Howard. He actually caught up to me while I was waiting at the light on 2nd and I didn’t try to beat him from that point, but I totally dusted him on the way up.

I think my legs are definitely starting to get in better biking shape. I may have to start running here again soon too. I definitely want to start getting in better shape.

Wednesday Ride

I didn’t ride to work today, but I did get in a pretty good ride after I got home. It made me realize that there’s a definite downside to living towards the bottom of the South Hill when you decide to ride up it and you’re out of shape.

Even though the weather has been weird and crappy in May so far I really think this is going to be a good summer overall. Chances are it will go by really quickly as well.

I should really get around to doing some of the site improvements I’ve been mulling over forever. Or I could just go to sleep now. I am kind of tired.
