What's going on...
Haven't had many real updates to this livejournal in awhile, I keep meaning to make one but... well the internet is a lotus-eater machine.
Here are a few posts I do intend to make and backdate (more as a note to myself to do it!), obviously these are the major things I have been up to recently:
Mediterranean Cruise
WTF Convention
Alfred / Rochester trip
Anthrocon
Cousin's Christening
Also recently attended tonyringtail's bbq, had a great time there. Drove out there thanks to rjwolf and plastiger. So much food ^.^;;;
I've spent a lot of free time cataloguing my comic book collection. Although I am far from done (I have probably three times what I have at my apartment stored at my parent's house which still needs to be catalogued). Now just have to keep up with new editions to my collection :P But for those curious, here's a link to my database profile. I should probably start having a more discerning eye on what I should buy, too many issues get little more than a quick glance before being stored away.
I will be attending FurFright next month, the plan is to arrive thursday. That saturday I will be temporarily leaving the con to attend Rock & Shock for the day, meeting up with a couple friends for that horror con.
Next week I may finally get my deviated septum taken care of, well it should be taken care of seeing how I'm scheduled for some surgery. It's been an issue probably my whole life but possibly weirdly, I have noticed issues with my breathing more since getting my cpap. I actually hope that between that surgery and my weight loss I'll minimize or completely remove my sleep apnea symptoms. But it'll be my first real surgery (can't really count the broken bones or stitches in my life) since I'll be put under - that's a scary first for me, feeling a tad nervous about it...
Anywho, speaking of weight loss, the beginning of the year I was seriously able to get into the groove for diet and exercise, I had lost something like 30+ pounds by May. Of course there's a but coming because June/July we started our budget season at work - stressful does not even begin to describe it, I unfortunately gained a lot of the weight back. Been having trouble getting back into the diet and my gym has been closed for renovation since mid/late august. Still doing the running and this weekend I have another 4M race, I'm hoping that'll help push me into better shape and hopefully by end of the year I'll be back to where I was earlier this year ^.^;;;
Can't really report much else, I renewed my apartment for another year so I'll be sticking it out in NYC at least through next August. Nothing really has changed at my job, though a friend of mine has left for greener pastures not too long ago - Paulette had stuck it out here for a few years, I'll miss her irreverent take on this place. All for now, until my next real lj update chummers ;)
