This past weekend was a lot of fun. I got a chance to play music with Matt and the guys (those being Josh and Clay). Playing some tunes with these guys is always lots of fun and I am constantly amazed how smoothly rehearsals go. I felt like the weak point for a number of reasons, not the least of which being that I just hadn’t made enough time for rehearsal. Nobody’s fault but mine. It’s definitely an area where I need some discipline and I am going to work on that.

Either way we get to do it all again in a few weeks. I’m looking forward to it already.

I’ve been very luke-warm about my weight loss for the last few months. Like too many method actors I am having trouble finding my motivation. My life is good: I’m happily married, got a great kid a job that allows me some flexibility and pays well. I don’t want to go into what exactly has motivated me, but I am suddenly much more concerned with my appearance despite the other good factors in my life. I think it comes down to discipline. I want to have the self-control it takes to drop the pounds and tone up. I don’t want to spend another vacation swimming in a t-shirt. I want to look good for my wife and I want my son to never be ashamed of his fat Dad.

How is that for being transparent?

Well, here nor there I want to get things under control.

or “What I got out of Life Group this Morning”

Wow. So out of everything I got in Life Group (this particular instance is more like Sunday School… but either way), the most memorable of all is the teacher, Leon, has a theory that if you hang around people who are losing weight they leave stray fat molecules in the air that are picked up by those not losing weight.

Hence, “Leon’s Theory of Ambient Fat”.

We’re trying a new life group tonight too.
