Waning workouts

My gym workouts have dwindled to about 35 minutes x 2 days/wk these last two weeks. It's been just so difficult to make more time. Today, I felt my slacking off in the pain of my 24-min speed intervals session (level 14) -- I'd say "18" on the perceived exertion scale. I'll do the same session again on Thursday or Friday and take note of any endurance improvement. And hopefully, I'll workout longer. Tomorrow, I'll be lifting.

ps: With my baldness, I'm in need of some head warmth. And thus the 5-o'clock shadow, or goatee. Still a bit sparse, but me likee.

Photo storage

My new 120 gigabyte hard drive is now down to 16 gigabytes after only a few months. It's all due to the space being quickly taken up by our family digital pics and avi files.

And so Melinda and I have decided we need a new method of photo storage. Our answer is Flickr. We've had a "pro" account for some time now, but I really hadn't considered maxing it out for archiving full-resolution original photos.

This afternoon and evening, I uploaded 2 gigs of full-res shots, which took several hours. This week, I'll do some more reading on how to take advantage of my Flickr Pro account.

Thinking short term

My problem is that I think all projects, no matter how monumental, can be completed in 3 hours or less. So now I'm starting to feel swamped at work because it's quarter-end, the deadlines are just around the corner, products need to be shipped, and my focus is constantly being diverted by endless meetings and reams of paperwork.

"Calgon take me away!" Id est, I need to get to the gym. Tonight, I shall make it so.
