Whoda thunk? Amazing. Only fitting I should go for a run, and then do my 3rd inside climb….how fun! Today I’m solidly at level 5.8.
And is it me, or were climbing walls inspired by Mr. Potatohead??
1 year + 1 day post-op!
Partying takes work
A few months ago, I pontificated on how things in Web 2.0-land were starting to feel a little, well, frothy. A different take on this came today in this Techcrunch post ; while not necessarily vindicating the degree of frothiness that I’d feared, it does vindicate my marathon-esque search for the “right” startup:
It’s so cheap to create Web startups these days that we are going to be seeing a whole lot more of them. Many will be inane, redundant, or half-baked. But a few will rise up from the froth and create something lasting. Bubble or not, it’s worth keeping an eye out for those game-changers. We just might have to wade through a lot of junk to find them.
Of course, that concept of “weeding through a lot of junk to find the right one” sort of plays into my other theory….
"Impressive"….
Last year, I posted a bit about euphemisms (love that word). In addition to that instance, the same aforementioned physician had earlier referred to my feet as “advanced”….a term which should normally evoke pride but, when coming from a surgeon, connotes something a bit different.
Monday night my should-be carefree visit to Burke Williams Day Spa (thanks to the infinite generosity of my dear friend Jessica) was slightly irked by the comment from my masseuse: my back is “quite impressive.” Of course, initially my mind leapt to “yes, of course I’m buff” but alas, she was referring to the “impressive” degree of knots she barely had time to scratch the surface (so to speak) on….ok, on to the burning question: does a knot positively impact body-fat composition?
