Just Checking In

I don't really have a whole lot of any substance to post about tonight, but in the interest of maintaining my blog revival drive, I thought that I would "stop by" and pen a few words.

I had a very nice weekend that consisted of not really doing much of anything important, but I did get a lot of little things done around the house that have been nagging at me for a while. I took Toby (my beloved canine son) for a walk on both Saturday and Sunday. Toby loves to go for walks or "w's" as we call them because it's very dangerous to say the word "walk" around Toby unless you're ready to take him right that minute. The exercise is good for him - and me.

On Saturday, I did play several hours of Rock Band on PS2. Let me just say that game is an awful lot of fun. I alternated singing songs, playing guitar, or playing drums. My favorite song to play is Celebrity Skin by Hole. That is a cool tune on the guitar. I can play most of the songs on the game at the "hard" level and have tried and completed a few on "expert". The interface to the game is much the same as Guitar Hero so playing Rock Band came easily. I can play through almost all of the songs on the GH franchise at the expert level. Playing the drums for the songs on Rock Band is rather difficult. I can get through most of them on medium, but sometimes, even that is too much.

I am still trying to get plenty of exercise and eat right and I can tell that I'm making progress because the pants are fitting more loosely and the shirts are getting a little tighter around the arms, shoulders, and back.

That's all for now. I'll make sure to check in again soon.
