Yesterday

So, bit of a lax day for me on Monday. I felt like doing nothing and that is exactly what I did. I will be better today, I promise.

Fish!

So, still in mostly a photo kick, so here are some fish from the past couple of weeks.

 The top two are large mouth bass, and the bottom two are blue fin.

Some more photos I've taken.

Not really in the mood to do alot of writing today, so here are more photos I've taken.

Couple of past photos.

New TV

This morning, before leaving for classes/work, I and my family gathered in the den to check the weather and local news. Much to our dismay, our old 42 inch tube television just flickered on and off. Angrily we all left, to go about our business. My brother and I to class, dad to work, and mom to pick up what she needed to work from home. However, my mother apparently decided to purchase a new television during her lunch break. So my brother and I arrive home to find a new 42 inch Vizio flat screen LCD HD 3D tv. The picture quality on this thing is amazing. I haven't hooked my Xbox or Wii up to it yet, but it is just jaw-dropping.

Evening update, with Turtle

So yeah...did two hours of legs and shoulders today....I'd really like to make a long winded post about how I feel good about myself, for hitting the gym after almost twelve years of not working out...but yeah. Instead I will go over why I haven't really exercised in so long. As previously stated, I'm twenty-five. When I finished my eighth grade year, I decided to join the football team for the highschool, and went to the spring training for it, my last couple weeks of middle school. Things went well, and although I'm not a particularly big individual, I'm stocky for my size. Currently I'm five foot six, and weigh 188lbs. I however have seven and a half inch wrists. What this signifies is that I'm a large frame person. Short, but thick,  strong bones. I'm wide shouldered, and were it not for the gut, small waisted. So, despite being a small guy height wise, I can still pack on the power. Anyways, this proved to be a virtue for me training for highschool football. I was assigned to be defensive and offensive right tackle. Most of our other linemen were six foot dudes(at 14 and 15!) and weighed over two hundred. So I went to every weight training the school offered that summer. On the last day, on my last set on the leg press machine, my right foot slips, and although the machine had safety-catches, it whacked my knee on the way down and the trauma knocked bone off the back side of my patella. It took 10 x-rays and 3 MRIs to figure out what was wrong/get my parents insurance at the time to pay for me to have knee surgery. After that it was three months on crutches and six months of physical therapy. Needless to say, I decided to spend the  rest of highschool eating snacks and drinking beer with my buddies. Which leads me to the out-of-shape guy I am today. But I'm working on getting back in shape. So kudos to me, and kudos to anyone else who is picking themself up out of their chair and working on it.

Why does it have to be hard.

Hitting the gym again today, shoulders and legs. Still sore from Monday, but I will muscle through it....hopefully. More updates to come. As always feel free to follow me and comment.
