It’s Day 2 of “Missa K. Week” here at Random Access:

Belated Happy Hatching Day (twice removed), Missa!

(See that blur where her left had should be?  Yeah.  She’s THAT fast.)

Last night, SaraRules and I went to the gym. That’s right… the gym.  We did a light “getting back into the swing of things” workout:

• Elliptical: 5 min/5 MPH (avg.)
• Leg Raises (Roman Chair, full leg extension): 3 sets/15 reps
• Bench Press: 3 sets/10 reps, 135 lbs.
• Lat Pulldowns: 3 sets/10 reps, 100 lbs
• Shoulder Press (seated, dumbbell): 3 sets/10 reps, 30 lbs
• Curls (dumbbell): 3 sets/10 reps, 25 lbs
• Tricep Kickbacks (dumbbells): 3 sets/10 reps, 15 lbs

Yesterday’s step count: 7,168 (as of 23:00)

Post-workout weight: 182.9 lbs.

Stray Toasters

• I knew that I had meetings today, but they somehow managed to fade into distant corners of my mind… until the guy we’re meeting with showed up this morning. This is an obvious sign that I have far too much blood in my caffeinestream.
• Sub Makes Unexpected Find Under Floating Ice Shelf
• Not for Public Display: Backstage at the American Museum of Natural History
• 
• Diamond Find Could Aid Zimbabwe, and Mugabe
• New Air Conditioner Process Cuts Energy Use 50-90%
• Chris and I are getting together with Jeremiah and Sinister for a little mid-week ‘Clix gaming tonight. I’m sorely tempted to use an all-Legion team if Chris uses a Batman-themed team… just to have a bunch of flying, invisible-when-behind-cover superpowered teenagers on the field. (As “wild card” pieces, the Legion would be able to use the Batman team ability, which would give them Stealth when in or behind cover.)
• See ya all in Persia
  Or maybe France
  We could be India
  Or perchance
  Be with us in Bangkok
  Make no difference
  Everywhere the actions at
  We’re involved with this or that
  • …and for those who didn’t grok that, see if this helps:
    
• Donny Hathaway: Neglected Heart of Soul
• My affinity for Top Gear is fairly well-known. I wasn’t watching it last night, but SaraRules was. I happened into the room when the following aired… and laughed heartily at it:
• And, for Ms. Amy…



• From the “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot…?!” file: Motel 6 comments on 28 cats, mess discovered in hotel room

Time to get on with the gettin’ on.

Namaste.
