I couldn’t handle not having coffee any more and the coffee at work is horrible so I bought a French press from Amazon and it arrived yesterday. This morning was my first attempt at making French press coffee. It looked weak and it is a bit on the weak side, but it’s still pretty darn good. I’ll tweak the steps a bit for tomorrow – I think within a week I will have the recipe/ratios/steps figured out.

If you are not reading http://thesurfingpizza.com you should be. The first time I found the site, I read maybe 12 articles and laughed so hard I was crying. Unfortunately, I didn’t make note of the ones that made me LOL, so here are a few that are entertaining (but the PEZ story *did* make me LOL multiple times):

• Seriously Amazing 1980s Sticker Collection
• The Surfing Pizza and the Gigantic Bin of Pez Dispensers
• I Was Told There Would Be Ice Cream

Much of his writing is LOL funny, but today he wrote this brilliant piece about being good at something (anything). Check it out.

I haven’t exercised in ages so it was time to start back. I started running this week and also started the one hundred pushups program. Running sucks. I did buy nice running shoes though (Saucony). I think I may start the 200 sit-up program next week too.
