Short attention span

I haven't quit blogging altogether, I just find myself having small bursts of thoughts at random moments, something I've always felt didn't quit fit or belong in a blog. I've spent so much time on Twitter now that I feel like blogging has become an over-thought process.

Or I could just be lazy and/or uninspired. I'm thinking the latter...

D-day minus 61

Two months left to go & I'm already in need of a new pair of shoes. On Sunday I did a 10 mile run (16 kilometers) & although it was sunny, it had rained the days before. As the run went through the forest, there were a few muddy tracks scattered around waiting for some runners to fall into them like a carnivorous plant looking at flies getting closer…

My Adidas sneakers have succumbed to the acid rip of those muddy jaws & I only bought them in January. I've tried to clean them but it just isn't the same. They will be sorely missed & my wallet already feels lighter. :-/

D-day minus 75

Things have been going steady as far as my training goes but of course every now & then there's a little glitch. After pushing it a bit too much on the bike on Monday, my upper thighs felt really painful on Tuesday but got even worse this morning. I ended up not going to work & staying in bed most of the day. Huzzah!

Things should get better by tomorrow which is always a day off anyways (training wise at least) . We'll see if I can slowly start things back up on Friday.

The gift that just keeps on spending

Look into my oddly positioned eyes!

I'm a big fan of the GOINCASE cases & once again they give me a reason to go broke on their store. They've just released the Steven Harrington Slider Case & I want it! Ever since they've announced it I've been noticing more & more scratches on my regular Slider case. :-P

It's easy being green when you're not

Do not smoke!

I remember not so long ago when Nokia announced its greenest cellular phone, the Nokia 3110 Evolve. Nokia took a jab at many other cellular phone manufacturors & presented itself as a leader in green or environment friendly devices. The announcement was hailed all over the Internet but a lot of skepticism could also be felt on Nokia's true dedication to the ecology. I myself think that these doubts were justified as this phone is almost nowhere to be found be it here (Belgium), France & frankly I doubt there's stock piles of it in any country.

It's really a shame as my office cellular phone seems to be in its dying moments & I thought I could get one that wasn't too expensive & that wouldn't generate too much extra waste at the same time.

Thank you Nokia, your half-assed attempt is really appreciated.

D-day minus 90

I wanted them in Leopard skin but they were on back-order.

This could sound like the day by day (or week by week depending on my motivation) log of a catastrophe just waiting to happen. But just like the captain of the Titanic, I shall keep the course. What course ? Me running (& finishing in bloody, agonizing pain) in the 2009 Brussels half-marathon.

It's scheduled to take place on Sunday May 31st & I have the next day off so the circumstances are perfect, right ? We shall see how my preparation comes along. & for those laughing in the back, I've started training since last year though. It won't be a last minute joke. ;-)

Still weak

Still waiting...

After downloading & installing the game, it has to update. Those updates are as big as the game itself. :-/

I am weak

This must be a virus because I didn't agree to this, I swear.

I've already seen countless friends succomb to the evil know as World of Warcraft yet once again I prove to myself that I'm a sucker for anything free. Pray for me.
