Books!!!!

So I went downtown to get some cash out for rent, and with the intention of buying some fresh produce at Thursdays on First and Third.

I, um, bought books instead. The money for rent is safe and here at home, but I used my produce money on books. It's been so long (2 weeks) since I was at the book store. Granted I still have two or three books on my shelf that need reading but you can never have too many books. I got some good ones too...

Kurt Vonegut "Player Piano"
William Faulkner "As I Lay Dying"
John Updike "Witches of Eastwick"
Dante's "Inferno"
and
The Mammoth book of Erotica with stories by Clive Barken, Leornard Cohen, Anne Rice, Kathy Acker, Adam-Troy Castro and Marco Vassi (just to name a few.)

I got a pretty good deal too. All these books for $16.00! I need another bookshelf.

I know I'm kind of a dork.

Woohoo!!

100 feet in less than seven minutes!!!

Rock climbing rocks!

So I have a goal. To get in good enough shape to try out and make it as a contestant on American Gladiators next year. I started officially training for it on Monday. I'll be lifting 3-4 times a week. Running, doing intervals (sprints.) Riding my bike to build up stamina. Rock climbing and hiking, trail running. And I need to find someone who can show me some good wrestling moves.

This is going to be fun!
