Free Senseo Machine

I just saw a post for a Free Senseo Coffee Pod System. I have been wanting a Senseo machine ever since I heard Adam Curry talking about it in the beginning of 2005 on the Daily Source Code. Seems like a great coffee machine to have when living alone. Hopefully they find me worthy of receiving one. That is the catch, not everyone that fills out the questionnaire gets a Senseo machine. Thanks Wise Bread for the heads up on the deal.

WLTV

A few weeks ago Diggnation mentioned Wine Library TV. I subscribed to this podcast right away. Once upon a time, amongst other things, I was the wine buyer at the pharmacy chain I ran. I haven’t been drinking much wine in the past several years but this podcast is completely inspiring me to start popping corks again. It is a totally a fun, non-wine-snobby look into the wine world. If you like wine or want to learn about tasting and more, go check out WLTV!

Current Weight: 272.4

Well that weight is a little better. I need the month of May to be the month I get, and stay, consistently in the 260s. Hopefully by Monday I can get back down to 269 and keep it there. Going to a grad Par-Tay tonight so that might throw a kink in the plans. I am going to try to get a ride in right after work though to help balance things out. Until next time.

Current Weight: 274.2

This is the most I have weighed this month! I need to get my butt back on track and get back to fatblogging. It doesn’t seem like I can get my blood pressure under control on my own so it looks like in a week and a half I am going to have to go on the drugs. That really sucks. Hopefully I can get off of them as my weight gets closer to my optimum weight.

I just did a quick 12.8 mile ride in 25 minutes. It was my fastest top mph and average mph. I was averaging 12.8 mph not too bad. I have been hovering around the 10 mph mark. This was also my shortest ride too though. My legs feel like jelly right now. I kinda forgot how much I love that feeling.

I quit!

I have held my current job for a little over a year and a half. The whole time I have had my sights set on moving up in some way. My supervisors and bosses have acknowledged that I am capable of much more than what I am currently doing. However the way things are structured in this office, the opportunities for advancement seem pretty slim.

So today, after much thought and weighing of options, I gave my notice. This time next month I will be working for the county Recorder’s office. I decided to make this decision consulting very few people. Other people’s vision of what I should do has clouded my judgment in the past. This time I spoke only with professional collegues about this move. It was a tough call but I think in the end it made the decision easier.

It’s go time

I am making a big decision on the job front today. I have tried to keep it pretty quiet as to limit people trying to influence my path. I will try to update you after work today.
