02/12/05: S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y morning 8:00 AM

Jeez. Up at 8 AM on a weekend morning, this is symptomatic of being in the Washington area for too long. I should be sleeping in more like single guys do. Anyway, at least I have time to update y'all on things of the past day.

First some one handed applause goes out to Drew, who was reported as to be the obtainer of *3* big numbers last night. OK, so f you were hot on the steamer last night, why do I get voicemail before midnight telling me you are heading home?!?! You know, I have some numbers, too. Really prime, in fact. Want to impress me? Call them all this weekend!

Speaking of no-calls, none have been received back from Megan, the sign interpreter I met last week up at Micr$oft's DC offices. OK ladies, no more whining about men being the only irresponsible gender when it comes to callbacks, OK? Oh, I need to apologize to my Canadian girl. I got sidelined into a meeting about CMMI that numbed my brain. I'll call Monday

The DVD collection has increased. Behold.

Found a flyer last night on the ground at the Metro station. It appears that Verizon has finally rolled out FIOS in FC. There is going to be some launch event over at the State tomorrow afternoon. A dry event, though. What a drag!

Last night also found my return to the gym. Yes, between moving, the holidays, and going to Europe, I had ended up sloughing off two months. I went through most of my routine, only finding some weakness with a couple of the tricep exercises late in the circuit. Feeling a bit sore this morning, but nothing debilitating. Dan the Man, colleague from work and one of the many family men there, had agreed to return to exercise on the same day. He begged off for a weekend extension. I shamed him.

I was happy to see that I had only gained 2 pounds since my last weigh-in two months ago. I was expecting a lot more. I guess I am doing better in my lifestyle. I'll be back at the gym either tomorrow or Monday night.

OK, time to start cracking open those shelves....
