In an attempt to try to keep with my writing, I’m testing out the wordpress site from my Blackberry. The interface looks different, and there’s only so much you can get out of the Blackberry Browser for now, but hey, this works…

Ready, click, publish…

Been holding off on the P90X reboot for 2010.  But once again work and the long commute has gotten me too busy to catch up on my workouts.  So, I’ve decided to put the commitment back into play for another 90 days of extreme home fitness with p90X.  I ran through a round last summer with decent results, but this time I’m looking to put the pedal to the medal and I hope I come out stronger!  So, let’s check now and then from now till the 90th day… May 1.  No photos though, sorry.

C is for cookie and it’s good enough for me.  And a particular cookie, a fortune cookie in this particular case, had wise words to say.

Upon opening the usual fortune cookie from my favorite Chinese restaurant in my town, I came upon this fortune: “You can’t steal second base and keep your foot on first.”

Was it a coincidence that I am currently dealing with a situation where moving forward to a next stage in my professional career will require letting go of the previous one?  I think not.  I will learn to capitalize on this idea this year… with a capital C.  But for now, taping up the fortune to my work monitor is enough to remind myself here and there that a person can’t standing on two bases at once.  Time make a move for 2nd base.. Let’s see how that goes.

Reboot… scan disk… defrag… whatever geeky terms involve getting the workstation restarted, and in this particular case it is time to restart a new blog for a new decade.

Yes, friends, it is I,  Mike,  Chronochaser.  The date is December 31, 2009.  Final day of the 00’s and in an attempt to get a good restart on my life as I see it now, I have brought back this blog from death.  As I start up new endeavors this year, I hope to keep a good log here to track my progress.  You’ll see,  I’ve only just started…  For now.  The system back up and running.  Hopefully I won’t need a reformat (or as some of my geeky colleagues would indicate… require a restore from backup tape, or install a brand new operating system).

So long 2000’s.  Bring on the 10’s.
