Today: Alright, I guess I don’t have to blog every single day. But it was a nice effort for awhile there. I’ve been working out very regularly since December 1 and I see some of the results now. I also feel a lot stronger during my runs. As part of our very exclusive book club (just two of us), my buddy, Erik, and I are reading one book a month and then doing something from the book. This month, we read Walter Isaacson’s Steve Jobs. It really painted him out to be kind of a dick and liked to take credit for others’ ingenuity for profit. Since we can’t start a multi-billion-dollar multi-national corporation, we decided to go vegan for seven days. Today is day one and I already crave meat. Oh, and update: I finished the seventh Harry Potter book last night!

Tomorrow: Gym, reading and writing for class, and possibly doing some of my fun reading for the club. The book for February is Freedom by Jonathan Franzen.

Today: allergist, car wash (lots of snow salts all over the Prius), haircut, dentist, finished HP6, gym, homework. Did VERY well with the weight loss stuff today. Cole pooped on the bathroom rug–I suspect the kittens are a little thrown by our absence still.

Tomorrow: flash cards, gym, HP7, continuing to bring the kitties back to normal. Oh, and class. Need to send some stuff to my research advisor that’s overdue too.

Today: left around 11am for the 7hr drive. Stopped at the same Waffle House and it wasn’t much better. Aunt Liz made monkey bread. I have eaten too much of it and will surely dispose of it when we get home to prevent further disaster (I did!). Quiet day.

Tomorrow: lots of errands and homework. Gym!

Today: got to hang out with Kim and her brother, who could easily win a Tom Cruise lookalike contest with only some minor modifications. Mick’s cousin is a belligerent child who throws tampers when he doesn’t get shotgun in the car on the way to dinner. It. Was. Ridiculous. Discovered a treadmill at Mick’s grandma’s house and used it for a nice hour-long walk-and-read.

Tomorrow: the long journey home.

Today: I ate entirely too much today. Oy. That’s pretty much all we did all day. Oh and it snowed overnight and all day–kinda crazy.

Tomorrow: hopefully less food, more warmth.

Today: long drive but we did it in 7 hours including a stop at a Waffle House outside Scranton. Terrible service. Oh, and Mick’s 13yo cousin is a begging to be sent to military school.

Tomorrow: gift exchanges, dinner at a Greek place called Symeon’s and more antics.

Today: lazy day. I didn’t read for class but he wasn’t calling on anyone in my row today. I don’t want to get in this habit this semester so I’m going to break it before it starts for next session.

Tomorrow: long day of driving. Hope to get some fun-reading in along the way.

Today: Second day of school went alright. This bar prep course scared the Hell out of me. It’s going to be a tough battle but I plan on winning the war.

Tomorrow: one more day of school. Need to tackle some laundry and reading for commercial transactions tomorrow. Not sure I have the will to make it to the gym at all this week at this point. Traveling to NY Thursday to see Mick’s family for a few days.

Today: Got some freelance stuff submitted. Didn’t get the JAG gig, but oh well. Did my reading and prepping for my first commercial transactions class. Surprise snowfall all afternoon.

Tonorrow: Gym first thing, first bar exam prep assignment, first trial practice assignment and maybe some HP6 reading if I’m a good boy.

Today: A success! Cleaned the entire apartment and finished HP5. I’m now four chapters into book 6. Enjoyed a relaxing day, other than the running around cleaning bit. Feeling good.

Tomorrow: Finish up a bunch of stuff for work and submit it, find out about the JAG application, read more of HP6 and compulsively check for my grades and read up for my first day of my last semester of school…ever!
