Captain's Blog, Stardate 2013.02.24, U.S.S. Enterprise - Soreness gah + NEW PROJECT! nom nom nom nom

WeeeeAhhhhhWaaaaaaOoooooo

So my numbers for my requirements aren't great, well, so far they're abysmal. I took a while to get started, and now that I'm moving, I'm not at all close to being as capable as I used to be and know I can be, so the numbers are building rather slowly, gap between where I am and where I should be is building quickly. BUT,  the rate at which I am falling behind is slowing ever so slightly. I figure I should put it out of my mind where I could/should/would be and just keep moving, and hopefully the numbers will take care of themselves. I hope. If I don't stop and keep going then I should get ever closer to my goal. So I'm just going to ignore all the naysayers in my head and just move. Like in Nemo. "Just keep swimming" 

If I'm wrong and I should be shaking with fear, then I can freeze in fear and anxiety later. That does me no good now, and dwelling on how far I am does not get me any closer. If I can only do 30 P/U in a row for now, then that what I will do, and as long as I continue to do them, 40, 50, 60, and maybe one day even 100 would come in it's own time.

So here's the plan, I finally finished one of the books that I have been sputtering through for the past year. Luckily, this is one of my requirements to do so. Unfortunately, I also said that I need to understand these instead of just mowing through them. So in order to do this I have to read them again and as I come to certain quotes, excerpts, ideas, etc in the book I will highlight them and do a blog post on it discussing what I think of it and some such. It may be one post for a chapter, or some chapters will have many many posts, either way, it will work as it shall. As I do so, I feel that it would be greatly encouraging if you nice folks in cyberspace would care to comment and respond to these and let me know what you think about that particular section, and see if we can't all learn a bit by seeing things in a different light.

Maybe if it irks me enough along the way I'll even throw in a few posts here and there with sections of another thought exploration "thingy" that I'm working on. It is uber annoying at times for me to keep that topic out of other topics even if it seems so pervasive in everything, and I just want to get it all down and out! But that would be a long long long long long blog post. Another day I suppose.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have push ups that await me, as I have an elephant to eat. nom nom.
