i am absolutely addicted to put down the donut<\/a>. it’s a great weight loss\/fitness\/lifestyle site run by two very smart women, joelle and kathy. they’ve got reviews of fitness tapes and books, recipes, tips for staying on track and a few good swift kicks in the ass for good measure. if you’re at all interested in losing weight or getting fitter, it should definitely be in your bookmarks.
\nspeaking of the fitness, i’ve completed the slim in 6<\/i> (customer reviews<\/a>) “start it up” video a grand total of seven times so far. of course, that’s been over two weeks, not consecutively. considering the first time through had me practically in a wheelchair i’d say i’m doing pretty damn well. i’ve got to get two more days in this week (tonight and tomorrow) since i’ll be going to the island for easter. i’ve already noticed that, while i still sweat like a river and gasp like a fish out of water, i’m not modifying nearly as much. the biggest thing for me is trying not to expect that i can do it all perfectly every day, like the people in the video. slow and steady. anything is better than the nothing i was doing before, right?
\ni’m so excited that there’s a four-day weekend just around the corner! too bad about the having to get up early friday to catch a boat, but i should be able to sleep in for the next three mornings to make up for it. my mom’s all excited about this since she hasn’t seen me since xmas. oh, and because i’ll be painting her bathroom for her, too. i’m such a good kid.
\nmy friend wade has been asking me for photography tips. he thinks i’m a really great photographer and wants me to teach him how to use his digicam to make good photos. i was totally flabbergasted when he asked and i realized that, other than knowing a few technical guidelines (rule of thirds, etc), i’m an instinctual photographer and i don’t think i could possibly teach that. i just look around the world and then try to capture it in a way that makes me happy. how can that be taught? i did tell him to just take lots and lots of photos. when he finds one he loves, try to recreate it with different subjects. when he finds one he hates, try to think about what he doesn’t like about it and avoid that next time. i think that’s probably the best, and only advice, i could give.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
