An awesome weekend.

Posted June 26, 2006

Despite comments to the contrary, I haven’t given up.
I had an awesome weekend in chicago! I learned tons about Ruby on Rails and I can’t wait to start my next project.
On the sixpack front, I brought my workout shoes and pants, but didn’t have anytime to work out (nor did I have any time to really talk to anyone on the phone). I’m right back in it though, I did sit-ups and pushups today and tomorrow It’s gym time!

I’m going to start going over old comments in the next week to figure out who will get how much – I’ll be paypaling you in a few weeks.

12 Comments so far

    “figure out who will get how much”

    Dave, I’m not giving up, I’m being realistic. I WILL have a sixpack, just not in the timeline I first laid out

    Despite the time off, your weight didn’t fluctuate much at all! (Well, at least between the last two measurements).

    What do you feel about immediately changing the SPBS site to reset the goal for a later date, or to simply redesign it without a date?

    A quote for you:

    “The only chance of you have of failure is when you put a time limit on your growth”

    Yeh how about it K, double or quits?!?

    Ché, great quote. Like I said from the very beginning – this was an experiment. No matter WHAT, I learned a lot about myself.

    Dave, I’m not sure what you mean.

    You said
    “I WILL have a sixpack, just not in the timeline I first laid out”
    Then Che said
    “What do you feel about immediately changing the SPBS site to reset the goal for a later date?”

    So what I meant was, why don’t you give yourself another 12 weeks and double the money?
