Conditioning class

In an attempt to break out of my ankle injury induced physical slump, I signed up for the conditioning class at the circus school where lemur_catta trains. It's a good option for me as the class is strenuous but low impact. (And the eye candy beats the blazes out of a Nomads' training session). It's never easy getting back in shape after a lay off and it only gets harder as one gets older. I have basically been vegging for three months and operating below my usual activity level since May. No surprise that I need to lose thirty pounds.

Last night was the first class and it was tough. There are some very fit people in that class. I think I made it through roughly half the class. I managed about 45 minutes with a couple of breaks before deciding I had reached the point where tired muscles just wouldn't even go in the right directions.

This morning I feel tired but not damaged. It can only get easier.

So this is the sprogs and I at Bangkok airport. As you can see they don't get their good looks from me.

Evil to do list

I'm slowly getting out from under my to do list.

Most of my year end accounting is done. Now all I need to do is schedule a meeting with my accountant to figure out what I screwed up.

I have a meeting tomorrow that may lead to some interesting work.

The huge stockpile of pens is being attacked. I listed ten pens and a batch of seven mechanical pencils on ebay today.
