Good day all friendly folks in whatever la la land you live in. I hope all is well and good with you and yours.
I am tired of being out of shape. If you are not, that’s awesome. Good for you. I applaud your intestinal fortitude and determination.
I got into a funk, for lack of a better word, last couple years…maybe COIVD? Meh, it was just me and me alone. Not some external force pushing me to eat chips and other damn tasty, nasty shit for much, much too long.
So…I have started to do burpees, 4 count and 6 count. The six count involve a push-up in the appropriate spot, you can imagine where that is. Neither one is easy when repeated too many times. Simple? You bet. Throw in a Navy Seal variation and well, I can almost make myself puke.
We shall monitor my progress...why not eh? Starting with 5 sets of 10 reps daily for a few weeks and when that becomes super easy, I will up the sets. My initial goal is 10 sets of 10 reps a day.
WTF you ask? Well, I do not really love gyms, I travel a bunch and usually, I have a floor in my hotel rooms…if not, there are floors all over the place. Look down, I bet there is a floor right there!
Even in the plane we have floors… but I am not that obsessed yet…and god knows what the passengers (or my bosses for that matter) would think. Definitely something to consider if I wanted to go viral….(maybe for last flight only).
Want to Try Something Cool?
Take a look at this: (not a command, what am I your dad? You do you)
It is an AI chat thingy that will pretend to be someone, you type that into name box…then ask it a question and it will answer as if it is that person…the world is getting spooky.
Here is there website if you want to read a bit more about it…
Artificial Intelligence is all over the news with ChatGPT et al… This is just another something to fool around with and get comfortable with our future…stand in its way or get out of its way, either way it is stampeding ahead. The future. As would be some cattle, same idea.
Have to run but…
I am headed to Costa Rica twice this month, Peru and some other places I can’t recall so hopefully get some decent pics of shit someone might care to see. The destinations all really just squish into one another….ending with a strip of pavement out the front window at the end of the flight…then a hotel and some sleep. Rinse. Repeat.
I am working on some other projects as well so I want to bring that stuff to you guys too at some point soon.
Please stay tuned…and do not adjust your sets..
Here is something else to think about while you wait…

Addendum
I also sometimes “lose it” in the car, just a little yell, perhaps a one finger salute, small shit…people annoy me, drivers get in my way, they honk…this isn’t a constant thing mind you (as the only thing constant is “me”…I am fully aware of where you are going with this here…) but I feel that I need to vent once in a while…not that I am violent or want to kill squirrels…really I don’t. I just vent and afterwards, I feel good. I figure, it is in a safe place, (I don’t drive in Florida where I could get shot) and it is over and I can move on.
Anyone else feel like this?
Perhaps I am a psychopath and I am not aware…but I do apologize to anyone who has thought it might have been them at other end. It isn’t you (necessarily) it is me.
Ciao and good driving amigos.
