The week that was…..

by biscuitinabasket on July 27, 2008

My paws have been itching to post all weekend…. alas, I was on the road again, and have gone without the net for 3 days now…. yes I know – shocking! The cause which is strengthening though, is the acquisition of a blackberry…. I think I will hold on to that thought for now. The good news is that the handset which I really want, has been launched in the UK this week… I want to get this for sure!

In other news, I have fallen behind on my one hundred push-ups challenge… I only managed one session this week where I managed to push 10 consecutive push ups. Although it is an excuse.. :D I was really really busy this week – work has drained me. I will definitely look to pick it up in the coming week – albeit an anticipated toughy of a week too.

One good news of sorts this week is the fact that although there is damage on 2 parts of my ankle joint, I don’t need an op or pain killing injections. I will have to manage it with physiotherapy, loss of some weight, and some sensible rest, as the specialist put. I want to achieve weight loss via sensible eating really, I don’t see the point of working so hard and converting fat to muscle…. which really doesn’t lead to weight loss… so – is exercise required to get fit, or to lose weight? I don’t really understand…..

Today, I got a taste of what I will experience while I will be on holiday….. 175 unread posts…. I must say – I actually missed reading what you guys have written over the last 3-4 days…. I need to catch-up!

It’s the week before I go away for a couple of weeks; I still haven’t decided what clothes I want to take, the things I want to do while I am down there, and the people who I want to meet while down there. I guess I will have to quit reading for a couple of days, and work on these on the train.

The final act of my weekend was to go and watch the Dark Knight….. A seperate post on that is coming right up!

How has your weekend been? :)

p.s. Lhjunkie posted an “extension” to my original idea of the blogging challenge. The idea is to put together a set of questions every week – the point being to fill in those posting days when the ideas are low, or encouraging some bloggers to post more frequently. Eitherways – join in to the fun, don’t forget to tag both Lhjunkie and myself, and let’s spread this idea into the blogging community! ;)

Seeing a large number of posts piled up in my reader is a high point after a holiday for me.

How did you like the dark knight btw?

I wanted the Blackberry Bold more than anything!! But I couldn’t wait, especially since it will probably be months before it comes to Verizon. I’m pretty happy with my Pearl though and will hopefully have the iPhone sometime this week!

Blahh Google Reader. It’s intimidating! I got mine down to 500-something and need a breather.

By the way, working out makes you lose fat and gain muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat, so technically you might “weigh” more, but since muscle is slimmer than fat, you will look skinner. That’s why I stay away from the scale!!
