Update

So the exercising is going alright. I had a little set back last week when my bad knee started acting up. I've lost 2lbs and my body fat % is down by 3%. I feel a lot stronger and feel very accomplished so far. I never expected to see a ton of results right away, so I am right on track with my expectations. I find that listening to music helps me a lot when I exercise, it keeps me motivated and allows me to keep going without quitting.

Fantasy football is also going on. I was asked by several people to do fantasy football/other football pools.  I only wanted to do one and I ended up doing it with my family. The first week I sucked. My players had an off week or something. I lost to my brother-in-law. He had Ray Rice, Drew Brees and one WR who each got 20+ points. That killed me. Otherwise his team didn't do anything. In fact he had 2 positions where he ended up with zero points and his defense received -3 points.  Even then, I could not beat him. My players were only getting 4 or 5 points each. Oh well, hopefully this next week will be better.

Bowling is also pretty big in my life at the moment. I've been bowling like crazy. I did have this nice man come up to me and give me a few pointers. He said I was a great bowler, but needed to work on a few rough edges to my game. I've been trying out his pointers and seem to be improving. Tuesday, I was a substitute on a league and had to establish an average. I ended up bowling a 544 set which put me at a 181 average. It would have been higher, but my knee started acting up the last game. I didn't want to start off too high of an average because it would have been hard to keep up with. I think a 181 average is very reasonable for me and I hope to get better.

One of my favorite scenes from the office.  I love michael's face when jim goes "ding dong":
