Smile: My fast is over, so I enjoyed some salmon, green beans and rice (if I went into detail you'd say "dood, good food"). Frrrrresshhh out the shower, and getting ready to leave for a buddy's house to help set up for a party.

By party I mean a group of around ten or a dozen friends listening to music and talking about their week, and next week's agendas/goals. But we're usually laughing the entire time as we're all goof balls.

I am hoping I can talk the guys into a poker game, but it's doubtful.


Frown: A long weekend of yard work ahead of me.

I know it's not why you did it, but did you lose any weight?

I wear somewhere between a 42-46 jacket. 16" neck, 34/35 sleeve. That hasn't changed.

My pants...well, I can fit into my wife's size 0 and 2's waist. I know because I tried them on.

I'm probably at a 27-28 inch waist (or a lot less, I'm going jean and khaki shopping this weekend), where I was a 32. And it isn't like my wife's pants fit, but I could put them on without trouble. (She also needs new pants, but she doesn't want "girl pants").

I need new suit alterations, new jeans, new pants, new dress shirts, but my t-shirts are a-okay.

Well, I probably need new suits as well as there isn't much between my ribs and waist bones.

Lots of weight lost, but in weird places.

I believe the technical term is "emaciation".

Smile: Morning yoga followed by going to the Farmer's market.

I swear I'm not some granola.

edit*

Smile: Saved around $400 by doing my own taxes (owning land in other states, plus stocks and such make doing taxes a complete chore). Getting a great federal return and decent state return. I should have bought turbo tax years ago. It took me the same time to finish as sitting with a professional.

another edit* My pal and I pressure washed the house:

My pal is obviously a madman.

:D My brother finally fixed my bike. And by "fixed", I mean he replaced the inner tube.

:( He only filled it just enough to get me to the nearby tackle shop so I could fill it up the rest of the way.

:cry: He didn't tell me and now the new inner tube's already fucked up and can't actually hold air. So now I have to keep reinflating it.

:evil: Why didn't he tell me this? He claims he did, but all I remember is being told my bike was fixed, but nowhere mentioned how my brother was too lazy and/or stupid and/or misc-excuse to FULLY inflate the tube. He claims it's because the hand pump was too much work or some other shit.
