Book 'em, Dan-O

Five-Oh.

Six months...Fifty pounds lost.

Not as fast as I had hoped, but then again I haven't been really avoiding the carbs as religiously as I have in the first few months. I am exercising more, though. Hopefully that means I am gaining lean muscle mass and that's why the pounds haven't been dropping as quickly.

Hopefully the next fifty don't take as long. Okay, really just the next 35. Anything more than that and I will look like a crack addict.

At A Loss For Words

Don’t think me unkind
Words are hard to find
The only checks I’ve left unsigned
From the banks of chaos in my mind
And when their eloquence escapes me
Their logic ties me up and rapes me

De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
Their innocence will pull me through
They’re meaningless and all that’s true

--The Police

Failure to Launch

Sorry folks. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I was unable to sing last night. Not that I didn't try, but my vocal cords were misbehaving and I couldn't get a note out without squeaking.

Literally.

Squeaking.

So, unfortunately, you won't get to see/hear me sing this week. Maybe next week if the throat heals. But don't despair! I did happen to catch a group of frat guys singing "Ice Ice Baby". You will be able to see it right here as soon as I can get the video uploaded.
