Fitness

Well, I dropped the cash for a three year membership to 24 Hour Fitness today along with a friend. Hopefully I’ll get somewhat near to being in the kind of shape I used to be in.

It’s not that I’m currently out of shape. I’m just not in awesome shape and that bothers me.

Moved Recently

I moved recently and have been here about a week and a half. It was pretty rough at first but the place is coming together nicely. It’s old. Built in the 1920’s on the south side of the Heights in Houston and it shows in a lot of places but the layout is cool as are the well worn wood floors. It has character.

In the meantime I finally got my internet up this past Wednesday (and immediately hooked up the Airport Extreme for some extreme wireless) and am piecing together the a/v equipment bit by bit. I purchased some new cable wraps (disclaimer: I am a cable-mangagement junkie) and have spent the last few hours going back and forth between hooking up, wrapping, zip-tieing, internet browsing and espresso making/sipping. Needless to say I am almost done which is good as I am in serious Martin Logan withdrawl. Spiking the speakers and sub was fun if only because of the afore-mentioned wood floors. I ended up sacrificing $3 worth of quarters to rest between the massive floor spikes and the laquered dead trees.

After I finish setting up/tweaking speaker placement I’ll be sure to post some photos of the setup.
