Who doesn't love a bit of good clean sweat?

It is Sunday evening and I am in the Collaroy Castle with no need to get up at 5:00am to drive to Canberra as I used to do at times.

A lot of physical work has been done though.

YW: Pushups.  5 minxyminou pushups (that is, pushups with the added weight of a minxyminou) and later while watching the rugby, ten pushups for every point the Wallabies scored.  It was looking good until the All Blacks snuck two late tries and converted them both to make up a 13 point gap and win by ten pushups.  Why oh why does Matt Giteau hate the idea of me doing pushups?  I did point out earlier in the day that pushups can be a way to celebrate or to blow off stress.  I did celebratory pushups on election night and last week at a stressful point in the office, I did 20 pushups whilst wearing a suit.

TW: Chest and Legs - 20 thrusters to start. 100 openers, 100 closers, 50 bench press (with a bit of waiting before I did a set at 90kg without a spotter) 50 incline press, 200 leg presses, long sweat in sauna.

Tomorrow I will be hard at it again.

I looked at the prospect of getting more memory installed in my laptop but it seemed impractical.  I've got 1GB now and they could have only moved it up to 2.5 at a cost that would have paid for most of a whole new computer.  I can stumble through for a bit longer.  My philosophy is to get the models they are phasing out.  They are functional enough for my purposes and considerably cheaper than the top of the line models that are guaranteed to be obsolete in three months.

I'm willing to admit I lack some technological cred.  I don't get excited about gadgets.  I've never felt I must have the latest anything.  I'm fine with all that, but for some reason I still feel the need to defend my tech choices.
