On the comeback...

I can't believe it's been three weeks since I posted. I don't even have any really good excuses, either. I could, of course, blame it on work... or my friend's wedding, but what it comes down to, in the end, is Pogo.

Pogo.com is where I spend most of my waking, home hours. I play lots of silly video games, and I pretend that I'm staving off senility by keeping my mind active.

Really, I'm avoiding washing the dishes.

But these three weeks have actually been pretty productive, too.

I've so far:

Read 9 books
Walked 15.9 measured miles (measured with my GPS unit)
Exercised an additional 6 hours and 15 minutes by walking or doing exercise DVD's
Washed several loads of laundry
Found jobs for about 40 people
Cleaned my house (sorta)
Had my friend the bride stay with me for four days
Gone shopping with my friend the bride
Spent the bride's wedding day with her
Saw a whole bunch of friends I hadn't seen in a long time at the wedding
And a whole multitude of other things...

Not bad, eh?

Of course, yesterday I woke up with a huge coldsore on my lip. I can't remember for sure, but I think I haven't had one since before I made aliyah almost 2.5 years ago. I'm not sure what gave it to me... it could have been the lots of smoke I was around on Thursday night... the two slices of tangerine I had earlier in the week... the not enough water at the wedding... the general, overall stress of work... but no matter what it actually was, I'm pretty sure it wasn't Pogo.

So in order to protect my health, I'm going back to my videogames.
