meh

<emoticon redacted>
well played, sir... well played...

Work to live, don't live to work.
sometimes that is easier said than done...

True. It is easier said than done, but it's also way of thinking. I give a shit about my job and performance, but I also know when to say no and "turn off" when I'm not working.
It was a rough road getting there, but "no" is a word that has been added to my work dictionary.  I've also been doing good about not checking work e-mail during days off or weekends.  If it is an emergency, they will call.  Now if they call on a weekend and ask me to do something that I could have done the previous Friday, but they decided to wait until Saturday to ask me; then I would say no in that situation.

Work to live, don't live to work.
sometimes that is easier said than done...

I kinda agree with this... seems like im getting the reputation in the as the "oh he had to work" guy...
Don't do it.  Learn to say no.  It's not worth it.  I burned out twice last year.  I've also missed out on a lot of stuff because I previously placed work ahead of everything else; i.e., friend's weddings, graduations, etc.

Finally got back on the bike today and did my normal 12, felt alright for not doing anything for 3 weeks. Haha.

Ive been using the Strava app to record my rides and I'm liking it so far.  Its almost like a social networking tool for riders, you can find friends and Follow them (in the premium version it even shows you live feed of where they are so you can meet up/stalk them, but they want waaaaay too much for premium).

Another cool feature is that it puts your times up against other riders that have ridden the same section.  Im King of the Mountain at Dickinson Park!  I have the top time by over a minute.  Cool stuff.
I've actually been thinking about going for Strava Premium.  I honestly haven't been working out enough to justify it though.  Sad

That's one reason why I don't like seafoam. Change your oil on a regular basis and use top tier fuels and you don't need to use that stuff.
I agree.. I've heard more horror stories from seafoam treatments than success stories..

I'm back in my routine. Or well trying my best to get back to it. Yesterday I started off with a routine of fasting 6am workouts   30 minutes cardio and then lifting. On the bike this morning. Back to eating every 3 hours too.
Nice!

I really need to be more consistent about my workouts.  I was pretty good about it a few weeks ago; I was going regularly, but for some reason that stopped last week..  I also need to eat cleaner than I have been...

Very true.  Lots of great food and a pretty awesome night scene.  I never thought I would see so many people out on the street on a week night.
I almost got mugged inside a downtown Nashville bar a few years ago..

I love my nexus 5 dude. Thing is, aren't you on big red?
Yeah, but I'm contemplating switching to T-Mo.  I pay my parents T-Mo bill for them, so I'm contemplating joining their family plan.  When I priced out T-Mo before, it was for an individual plan and the cost differential wasn't much after the corporate discount.  I called T-Mo for a price quote if I were to join the family plan, and it would save me a good chunk of change.

Edit:  Aaaaaaaaaaannnnnnndddd I just placed the order for a 32GB Nexus 5 in Black.

So I've done some thinking...  I briefly thought about getting an HTC One (M8), or waiting for the LG G3.  I'm also interested in a OnePlus One, but their availability roll out is slightly annoying right now.

I'm now thinking about buying a Nexus 5, and then purchasing a OnePlus One when availability makes it easier to get (pending reviews).  Getting both phones wouldn't cost much more than buying a different phone, given the pricing for something like a One (M8).

Have you checked your fuses?  If you were swapping wires, you may have blown a fuse.

Referencing a wiring diagram would be your best bet.

Cup if that Irish coffee?
Irish coffee with a side of scotch.  Breakfast of champions.
