I was lifting weights until I couldn't hold them anymore a couple days ago. My arms are still sore.

Don't do that. Overexerting yourself is not something you want to do. While the main goal of lifting weights is to damage your muscles so that they repair themselves and become stronger, if you damage them too much at once they will take much longer to repair and will keep you out of the gym for 3 to 4 days, doing more harm than good if your activity level and/or diet is poor. Try to stay in the 15 rep range and do 3 sets if you're looking to get toned, 6 - 10 reps if you're going for muscle mass. Don't do more than 20 reps in a set because all you're doing is tiring your muscles out, not tearing them as is preferred. If you do it this way you may feel tired, but that's only because your body has no energy left after burning through its glycogen stores, or your muscles have an excess build-up of lactic acid causing them to be sore and achy.

No prob. And I haven't been on IRC much because every time I'd get on it would either be extremely slow or dead, so I suppose I just stopped logging on. I've also been busy trying to find motivation to study Japanese a bit more and have picked up a new language exchange partner. I'll hop on tomorrow though if I'm able to remember.

I'm not that great either. I've been trying to find the time and motivation to study more, but life keeps shoving its ugly head into my anus. If you'd like you can contact me on skype @ username f1forfrags.

I am reinstalling windows 7 so I can upgrade to 64-bit. I really hope this doesn't fuck anything up

I did something productive today -- took a couple of hours and caulked everything in sight in my garage, including all around the moulding on the side door going from the garage to the outside. That's door's in a bad spot; it's shady there and that side of the house tends to get the brunt of any rainstorm, so I have to be concerned about keeping water & bugs out. But now I'm done for today and it's only 2pm, so I've got the whole rest of the evening to goof off, drink, and play video games. Hooray!

My poor scanner gets so much hate directed at it just because its not big enough for my paper. Stupid fat scanner.

I'm more concerned about the kindergarten statement... for a number of reasons.

Dex_Belle · « **Reply #15336 on:** October 21, 2012, 02:42:26 AM »

I just went bowling for the first time in a while. I am not as bad as I remember.

students in primary school and high school have 2 days + one weekend long fall vacation when students from vocational school have vacation weekend + week #42 long.

EDIT.
Waiting for a train.... I'm sitting on the bar/restaurant on the station. The train leaves here 11.58 so I have to sit here for an hour.
. ...or then I just go outside into the wet fog.
