So apparently back in 2007 the powers that be redefined what a megabit is…since there is some confusion as to whether it is 1000 * 1000, 1024 * 1024 or 1000 * 1024…..

This is something that completley passed me by! Guess I need to go trawling a few books again to see what else people have decided to change and re-standardise. Crikey!!

It’s 2009.

I’m still in one piece though my sister Rachel visiting from Hong Kong has already been through the wars….we kinda drank a lot on New Years Eve and well…as the natural order of the universe dictates she fell and hurt her ankle…

I was up until this point planning a lot of walks etc… I guess you could say this is a blessing in disguise? Although in a magnanamous show of good will I am keeping up the jogging in the morning, and I will be updating my new fitness blog which will run along side this one. Officially my family challenge will begin on Monday, but it’s always good to get a head start!! It’s part of my New Years Resolution to basically lose another 17Kg’s In the last month I have lost near to 7Kg’s So I am well on the way :)

Hmmm….it’s been a very interesting, and somewhat emotional start to the New Year filled with it’s own level of passion too (wink)….Sometimes I am more of a predictable male than I admit to. I have always prided myself on my non-conventional approach to being a bloke. I guess I still have a long way to go, until I have perfected the new me…

Well - that’s it for the first post of 2009. I send this out with all my hopes, dreams and aspirations for everyone out there in the blogiverse…may you make the best of 2009 that you can!

With the start of a New Year, it’s only fair to start my New Year with a bang, wallop and lots of fitness related jargon so I’ve started a challenge with my Sister to see who can reach their goal weight first? To keep track check it here >> Family Fitness Challenge so that’s all tied in with my New Years Resolution to get insanely fit!!!

I am not sure whether this qualifies itself as the earliest post since there is many a time I will be up past midnight and still typing away, and yet here I sit - wide awake it would seem, after a somewhat fitful night. A confused husk of man. Denying myself certain fruits has it’s draw-backs and I came face-to-face with that monster last night. A friendship was tested because of it. I can be such a fool at times but one that loses control in the heat of the moment is not me. Never me in fact.

I guess this is proof that I will once and always be the gentleman, and never the scoundrel. It’s a curious thing. The place I find myself this morning, feels hollow and empty; like I realise there is something missing. I just don’t know what that something is? Is it the lack of any meaningful relationship or is it that most basic of human needs? That deep seated lust that drives some men? Is it that wine which makes me so intoxicated?

I need to meditate. I need to find out why now, at 7.26am my mind is so quiet.

Lost.
