Working on the wallet/waist/wheezing

[johnofchisane]

With my joints growing stiffer and more painful day by day and the plaid shorts I still fit into falling to pieces, I have come to the conclusion that I need to make some serious changes in my lifestyle. This entry is a freewrite of ideas that should eventually become a solid fitness-increase plan

I need to run. And get some muscles in my arms for playing the bass. If you want, you could use me to make you get in shape.

Schoolwork comes first for you, but if you have time I would much enjoy a good run. Afraid you'll leave me in the dust also :-).

Where are you planning to do aikido?

Also, if you have a bike and would like to go biking sometime, I'd be happy to join you :)

There's a class my roommate went to that I"m planning on taking the beginner level of, when I get home I'll add the URL to this post. No bike, unfortunately :-(. Perhaps I'll convince my parents to let me bring one back. Also, I will read Diane Ackerman, I swear :-)

you're going about it in a much healthier way than i am (at least your frame of mind). mind if i join in?

[johnofchisane]

sure, though from a distance of such magnitude mutual exercising sounds doubtful. How wouldst thou join in?

I need to get you hooked onto green tea. It's healthy, tastes better than water, and is cheaper than juice :)

'tis a point, though going back to water hasn't been that hard. Big problem with green tea is it tends to be bitter and requires *gasp* preparation. If I could figured out how to make peach-flavored sweet green tea like the C-store had....which would completely lose the point of drinking healthier...
