Ash Wednesday, Y'all

I'm only writing this so that it's official (and any of you can feel free to hold me to it should you see me slipping): I'm giving up beer and dessert for Lent. I'm expanding dessert to mean cookies, cakes, pies, candy, chocolate, etc.

If you know me, you know that beer will be tough enough. However, I've attained some sort of sweet tooth in the past few weeks which has derailed my campaign to eat better and actually caused a few pounds to creep back onto my frame. That, mixed with a little apathy, has done more damage than good despite my semi-frequent trips to the gym.

I've got a target of May for a bit of a slim-down as we're headed to Hawaii with my folks. I suppose I should be as worried about blinding people with my nearly transparent color but I'm not THAT superficial. ;)

Beer contains a lot of sugar and it's very natural when going off the beer that you'd develop a bad sweet tooth. So kudos to you.

I've found a great way to lose weight: get really sick.

Why Do I Do This?

I was originally inspired by the Web log posted on the site for Propellerhead Software. They developed a cool 808 emulator which eventually morphed into an entire digital audio workstation package (Reason). Those early posts documented their development process and gave a human insight into their struggles. It was cool. So, I bought some hosted space and figured out FrontPage to put a rudimentary site together. My goal was to connect my family, but then realized this could be a great way for me to keep track of happenings over time. Eventually, the manual, HTML journal gave way to this Blogger setup - much easier to deal with, and not bound to one computer.

Ultimately, this is more about nothing than an episode of Seinfeld, but I appreciate that you've read this far. Really.
