All we are, is everything that's right - 10:06 PM
WorkLast week I finished off my GABA work for QMB. Now I just have to complete the Nutrigenomics stuff and have that ready for the confrence and put my GABA stuff into poster format. Making the poster should be easy as the results are outstanding.
Social
Went and saw The Simpson's movie on Thursday and caught up with a whole pile of friends, it was also the day that my Wii turned up. Nick in his wisdom though the Wii would be safer being carried around by me in a room of 50+ geeks than locked in the boot of the car. Never have I been touched so much, well not me... all they wanted was the Wii. They wanted to touch my Wii. But I knew 90% of them so knew where to go to kick their arses should the need arise. I skipped out of Friday drinks early to get home and cook dinner and have Wii fun. But Saturday night was a social event where I went to 2 parties. Both productive for diffrent reasons. Party 1 was catching up with some old friends and reminising about old times.
And Party 2 was mainly the geeks I saw on Thursday night, but borrowed the new Zelda for the Wii off one of the guys there. So was all good.

It is a name and its name is Wii. If you have not heard of the Wii - then buy one. Just walk into your local Dick Smith and say "Give me a Wii - I have money" (make sure you are not lying about the money part or be able to run fast with a get away car ready) It is so much fun and really hard to discribe, so I won't - just buy one and find out for your self. But get the Raving Rabbits and an extra controller. If you have a Wii this is my number -

Wellness
Bah humbug - I didn't loose a single gram last week. Here is hoping for this week. But in saying that I talked to one of my friends and it took her 6mths to loose 20kg, at my current rate I can do that in 3mths. So prob not good for me, and having a few non loose weeks will be good for me. I didn't do as much running last week as i would have liked but - it every thing goes badly I will just do Round the Bays. Will see, but a Wii is a work out in a half.

The Simpsons Movie.
Was better than I thought, but was just like a really long simpsons episode that was funny. 7/10.
Projects
Nothing to see here
I realize, now that it is too late, that honor does not live in the name. It comes from what you carry in your heart.
