New Year's Day + 1

Today was the first real day of the new year. Sure, I could count yesterday, but, really, it wasn't a real day. I caught a double-header at the local AMC (saw The Pursuit of Happyness and Night at the Museum) with Courtney and AJ. Pursuit was a good movie. I fell asleep during Night, but don't take that as meaning it was't a good movie.

It was a fun movie (I think - AJ liked it). I just enjoy sleeping through movies as much as I like seeing them. It's a genetic thing. My Grandpa falls asleep during movies (and anything else that doesn't involve Ok State athletics), my mom falls asleep during movies, my sisters sleep through movies and I sleep during movies.

After the movie marathon, I came home, grilled some chicken and then wathed the OU-BSU game. What a hell of a game.

So anyway, today was my official start to 2007. So far, the resolution of bringing lunch at least three times a week is stil going strong. I brought a chicken sandwich and orange for lunch. I also brought some fresh pineapple. That is about a $6.00 savings. This is going to be interesting to track.

After work, I hit the gym. Still slightly hobbled by the Achilles, I swam 34 laps which is 0.97 miles. I was thinking I eclipsed the 1 mile mark, but I was 120 feet short. Damn the pool being 25 yards, not 25 meters. I followed that by 3 miles on the eliptical. It was a good kick off for 2007.

Tomorrow, I plan on enjoying a 6 mile run in this unseasonably warm weather.
