Wyse Guys
We have a new computer system at work: a Wyse thin client system. So far it's pretty cool. I'd have been stoked for a new normal desktop, but this works. :p
Pokemon Black is pretty cool! My team (such as it is - I only just beat the first gym):
Tepig: Prosciutto
Pansage: Broccoli
Purrloin: Purrl
Lillipup: Player (named after a dearly departed family dog)
Patrat: Tamias
As you can see, not even a full six! Heh. So far I love my tepig. He's so awesome. <3 A better update as I suck less. Friend code forthcoming. ^_^
And! I purchased a Wii Fit. I tried it out last night and was highly amused by everything. I really liked the yoga and the hula hoop game. I burned 90 calories playing! Haha. But I imagine my yoga stances are not quite right (even though I just did two really simple ones (warrior and half-moon)). The (Uncanny Valley) instructor demonstrates, but of course it not able to correct me if I'm wrong. And it was, uhm, harder than I was giving it credit for. I know, I know, why buy a fitness helper if I'm just going to blow it off. But it may also be a testament to how out of shape I am (hint: very).
Also my balance is atrocious!
I discovered the maximum weight loss goal one can shoot for is 22lbs. How did I find this out? Wellll.... that's my goal. :p And it still doesn't take my BMI down under 25 (25.9) (and yes I know BMI is only a loose guideline, but it seems to be the Wii Fit's major fitness calculator so we'll go with it for now). My current BMI is... high, but probably accurate for me. I've got a small frame, am quite short, and don't have any muscle to speak of. So the 28ish number is probably a good indicator of my health. Anyway, my goal is 22lbs in 2 months (~2.5lbs/week). Wish me luck. :D
