Reciprocal results not forthcoming
I know this is not the first post to express disappointment in the U Drop/I Follow or the U Comment/I Follow trend, but it’s a frustration I must share. To commiserate with my blogging compadres I have seen little if…
I think I'm in LOVE. . .
. . . with FireFox! As a dedicated user of all programs Microsoft I finally gave in to the proddings of all my fellow bloggers: USE FIREFOX. After weeks of utter frustration with IE7 crashing every few minutes or when…
7 Minutes Closer
Well, it’s day five of my new workout regimen and I’m seven minutes closer to ripped abs. I’ve definitely felt more energetic even with just a short amount of exercise every day. The afternoon arm workout didn’t materialize yesterday, but…
