Life is Moving Along
Hey everyone,
I only have a few minutes to post, so I thought I'd just write a few updates about live in general.
I've been keeping busy having fun with my summer. Every short Friday, I'm out there exploring the area in which I live. There are so many places to see. I'm already making plans for next year, since there were some things I wasn't able to get to this summer. Today I'm heading out with a couple girls from work to go to the Natural History Museum. I'm a little bummed the dinosaurs won't be on display since they're updating the exhibit, but it should be fun. Last Friday I spent eight hours at the OC Fair. It was so fun. I was on my own for most of the time, and I just walked along gradually and saw whatever I could see. From butter sculptures to racing pigs to Michael Jackson macaroni art, it was full of exciting and interesting things. I loved it.
My health is doing better these days. I've been taking medication to try and help what appears to be a slight insulin resistance. It's been making my more normal again. I don't know if that's what did it, but all of a sudden, my exercise seems to be working, and I'm starting to lose weight more rapidly. I am happy to say that I reached my pre-surgery weight, and I'm going down from there. Clothes are starting to be less tight, and some of them are even too loose. That's a great feeling. Hopefully I'll be able to keep it up! It's all God. Every time I'm out there jogging, I think, "Can I do this?" and then remember it's really "we". He's got complete control of my health, and he's been allowing me to jog more and more.
Oh, well, I was going to start writing more about my summer, but time's already up. Let's just say I've watched a lot of Dr. Who and Torchwood this summer, and am enjoying the ride.
I hope all of you are well and happy. Lates.

Maybe a shorter post, but I connected to a lot in it.Glad to hear the health improvements. I'm also starting to have the good problem of loose clothing.
"It's all God. Every time I'm out there jogging, I think, "Can I do this?" and then remember it's really "we". He's got complete control of my health, and he's been allowing me to jog more and more."
That's a good reminder for me, as I think I tend to think in terms of me doing this on my own.
Torchwood = Meh. I've watched the first three episodes of S1, and writing feels weak, I don't like the clueless, constantly-terrified lead actress. The only redeeming value has been "what's up with our mysterious leader?" I think I will try some other shows and MAYBE come back to this later.
josh, have you watched any Doctor Who yet? Did you know Torchwood is a spinoff? I would say it is probably best to start with DW and move on to Torchwood from there. Then you would have more experiences with Jack Harckness and he would be more enjoyable. For me, he is like a cross between Mal from Firefly and Han Solo. By the way, DW starts slowly too, and builds steam as it progresses. Torchwood is probably the same (and it is written by the same writer). I like that it takes place in Wales too. :)
