So, still computer-less. I did manage to get caught up with Season 6 of Doctor Who this past weekend, AND do a whole lot of adventuring in Skyrim with my new Dude!Dragonborn. He's more "oooh, what's over this way? Let's go poke at it with a stick." than my other Dragonborns. We've been exploring tons of ruins and sniping Dragur because of this ( Read more... )

( lift! )

I have a feeling that my computer never got ordered. (For some reason my post isn't showing, but my poor Alistor's motherboard fried last Friday.) I'd call Best Buy to complain, but now I'm having second thoughts on the one I had picked anyway. It wasn't like I had put any money down, so no harm, no foul. The only thing is that I'm updating ( Read more... )

So, more on the new RPG Fitness outlook ( Read more... )

Well, I stumbled across Nerd Fitness quite some time ago, but only recently started lurking on their forum. Everyone that posts has some sort of status bar in their signature, and being curious, I started clicking to see what all the fuss was about. Turns out that they're treating their fitness levels like you would for an RPG, and if anyone ( Read more... )

Wow, I've been gone from LJ for a while. How's everyone doing?

( numerical lists ahoy! )

So! 30 day squat and pushup challenges: COMPLETE! And I have no desire to do 200+ squats and 90+ pushups in a single day EVER AGAIN. Those last days had my knees creaking.

I am going to do the 30 day dumbbell workout because I really need to start incorporating some sort of muscle building stuff instead of doing 100% cardio. Speaking of cardio ( Read more... )
