Sorry I'm not here right now, I've gone to Florida for a week. Please leave your name and a message after the beep.











(beep)

- I'm still teaching H.S. math right now for free (curse student teaching...)

- Workouts are going great, as long as one avoids the frat. jerks that like to frequent gyms (that are obviously on some form of juice, whether it be test., hgh, or something newer). It is gratifying to see people that look 10 times better than you pushing the same weight as you are, however.

- Weight Update: Pre-cardio weight of 282. It will admit, you don't see many people updating their weight gain progress.

- Still planning a trip down to FL soon, Myah and I need some warm weather and familiar faces.

- Tomorrow is my birthday! I would love to have celebrated it with some Akins bbq and a gallon (or 3) of their sweet tea, but they don't deliver to KY.

- The married life is amazing. Its kinda like jumping into a deep pool or river. If you're not ready to swim, don't try it. But if you are ready, its an awesome thing. I love you Myah!

- Sleep time in three, two, one, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

October 3rd 2008: I weighted ~255 lbs., and was very much out of shape as far as strength goes.

(Long Montage highlighting my workout and diet)

January 23rd: I weighed in today at 280 lbs.

Graduation Date (Hopefully): I want to reach 300 lbs w/out putting on too much bad weight (aka fat) before moving back down to FL.

Other than student teaching at Warren East High School (Bowling Green, KY), that's pretty much what I'm up to right now. Married life is great, teaching school is great, and gettin' huge is great too. Not much to complain about right now, which is a good thing.

I miss all my peoples in Tampa and Gilchrist Co. Hopefully everyone will still recognize me.

I watched Barack Obama win the Presidential election tonight.
I really just wanted to remind all of my good friends of a couple of things we can remember and keep in the back of our minds.

Psalm 57:2-7
2 “When I choose the proper time,
I will judge uprightly.
3 The earth and all its inhabitants are dissolved;
I set up its pillars firmly.

4 “I said to the boastful, ‘Do not deal boastfully,’
And to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up the horn.
5 Do not lift up your horn on high;
Do not speak with a stiff neck.’”

6 For exaltation comes neither from the east
Nor from the west nor from the south.

Romans 13:1
1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.
7 But God is the Judge:
He puts down one,
And exalts another.

Daniel 2:20-21
20 Daniel answered and said:

“ Blessed be the name of God forever and ever,
For wisdom and might are His.
21 And He changes the times and the seasons;
He removes kings and raises up kings;
He gives wisdom to the wise
And knowledge to those who have understanding.

Hello Everybody! Super long time since the last post, I know, but I've been a little busy as of late.

Myah and I were married, for those who don't know already. The wedding went really well, no undue awkwardness and an interesting honeymoon story. No, we do not have pictures yet, the photographer apparently takes awhile to get the prints back.

So, the honeymoon. After spending two nights in Indy, we went to catch our flight to Chicago, and then from there Maui. Ironically, there was a tornado watch active in Chicago (stupid Windy City) and we sat in the plane on the runway in Indy for two hours. Needless to say, we missed our connecting flight. Oh, and thanks to United Airlines, we missed being rescheduled for another flight leaving an hour later because we had to stand 3+ hours in line at Customer Service. Heartbroken and fed up, we stayed the night in Chicago, made a failed attempt to catch a Stand-by flight the next morning, rented a car and drove back to Indy. No Hawaii Trip. Boo.

We did make the best of things, however. Next day we drove up to Cleveland to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (which I very highly recommend for anyone). Next day, we went to Cedar Point, which is the most amazing place on Earth for roller coasters. We had an amazing time just road-tripping thru Ohio. Upon refund of our trip money, we will attempt Hawaii later, perhaps near Christmas.

The new apartment is nice, 2 bdrm 1.5 bath townhouse in Bowling Green. Couple more semesters of Western and hopefully I will graduate! Myah graduated in May, so it makes working a little easier on the both of us as far as finances go. I honestly love the fact that we're finally married. We get along great, working together and just staying relaxed about things. I've put on at least 5 lbs., she's a pretty good cook :)

I will be on pleonast more often, now that school is getting back in session and I'll need more excuses to not do work. I miss all of you in Florida, and I do plan on moving back down when I graduate. If I do, I really don't want to move a washer and dryer set down a flight of stairs by myself. Again. (Ask Myah about that one) Love you all
