Labor Day Weekend Goodness

Welling seeing how there's not much I can get done today (Job runs can't be run due to some coding change, can't query accounts because a team member locked out TA Web, and unable to update documentation as the main tool I use crashes whenever it loads...good times). Though this is for today and not relating to the weekend. So lets fast forward to the weekend shall we?

Friday:

This day I have to admit was pretty good start for the lazy weekend ahead. Left the office early around 12:30-1ish to attend to some work and signed off around 5ish. Spent the remainder of the day playing Titan's Quest and Plants vs. Zombies for the most part with a small hint of HoN toward the end. Originally I thought some randomness would be going down but that was not the cause as there seemed to be a communication break down in a couple of areas. Also to be honestly don't recall doing much more than that lol. I believe this was the day I went up to bed early to read my A+ book, listen to some Harry Potter book 2, and a little bit of Ferry Corsten...that was about it.

Saturday:

Was definitely a bit more productive, ended up finishing Titan Quest on Normal with my Brigand, finished Plants vs. Zombies first time through and completed the Recettear demo. That ate up a good portion of the day. That along with Star Wars Ep 1-3 was being played all day so I took the time to do that. Played a couple of matches of HoN before heading off to bed at a reasonable time. This was also the evening I watched another program on Marine Reserve Ops or something like that. Crazy stuff

Sunday:

Played HoN the entire day with about 2 loses over 10 games. Watched more Star Wars...that was about it.

Monday:

Woke up and found myself at about 177 lbs. which I have to admit I was quite excited about the prospects of getting back to 170 lbs. seems a bit more tempting to aim for. Given I was about up to 179 at the end of the day (and hovered back to 177 lbs as of this morning/Tuesday). None the less woke up fairly early and made my way up (down?) to Colonial Heights to Laser Tag as I heard they had many rhythm based games up there. The stories I heard were quite accurate. Given that yes it was a 30 minute drive it wasn't too shabby. ITG3 (modded stepmania), PIU, Pop N Music, Beatmania (found out I could play normal 7 key?) and Taiko Drum master. It was pretty insane. My only gief was the front counter not having the ability to break a $20 2 hours after opening. Had to venture to a BP to get the change. Spent about 2.5 hours there and drove back.

For the remainder of the day it was a combination of watching Star Wars Ep 4-6, trucking my Brigand further through Epic mode (might reach Act 2 tonight), played a handful of HoN matches (after this weekend might take a break for a bit lol), and made a tiny bit more progress in Plants vs. Zombies. Did end up seeing the 'Furry' episode of CSI which I found to be somewhat amusing. Believe that's about it.

Week ahead:

Definitely looking forward to the short work week with no real plans couple of objectives though.

*Planning to drop down to 175 or less by the end of this week. Should be plausible as I've made a commitment to myself which entails of if I obtain any food outside a grocery store I'll be consuming it on the way and not at home. This mainly applies to pizza as that's a main gainer there. On top of this I'll be working out an hour each day. That and trying to stick with sub 1k calories.
*Read a chapter of A+ each day this week. Hopefully get to chapter 10 when its all said and done.
*Planning to be upstairs by 11ish. No staying up silly late (I always break this why do I try :p).
*Need a new pair of headphones (1,000 times this).
*Discipline

Think that's about it for now. Going to get back to updating this on a regular basis as I have trouble recalling things from 3-4 days back. Not sure if its a good or a bad thing but meh whatever.

Later all.
