Weekend Update

First ... yay me! My exercise and dietary changes are paying off, I lost four pounds this week. I have a long way to go but progress is progress. Also, if you scroll down to the bottom of the blog, you'll see I'm quite a bit farther along on my virtual bike ride ... I'm past Nashville now!

Another relaxing and fairly uneventful weekend. Spent too much time on the computer, as usual. On Saturday we went to see the movie Mr. Woodcock. I thought it looked pretty funny from the preview and the premise had a lot of potential. It centered around an evil-incarnate gym teacher who makes children's lives miserable. (I of course, related to the suffering children). One of his former students returns to his hometown years later to receive an award honoring his success, only to find out this evil former teacher is not only being honored as "Educator of the Year", but is also engaged to his Mom! Hilarity ensues! Well, in theory. There were a few amusing moments but overall it fell pretty flat. Oh, well.

Oh, one thing I wanted to share, and those of you who are my Facebook friends may have already been pestered by me about this, is this website Scrabulous. I'm not really using the Scrabulous site directly, but rather, the Facebook application. It's fun. It's basically Scrabble, but you can either play it "real time" or as you have time. So, in other words, instead of having to devote a specific chunk of time to play through a whole game, you can start a game with one of your friends and each of you can take your turns as you have time. So a game may go on for days. And you can have multiple games going on at once. So far I have only finished one game, which I won (yay!). I've got two other games going on at the moment, which I'm not doing so well in. Even so, it's still fun!

So how 'bout that NASCAR race today? Dale Jr. ended up a respectable third, which was great to see. Record number of caution flags. Nice guy Kyle Petty gettin' all up in Denny Hamlin's face and Denny jumpin' out of his car ready to throw down. Michael Waltrip had a pretty strong finish, and the points race is all shaken up, with the top four separated by less than five points. Even with all that action, I managed to get in a nice nap during part of the race. :)
