Lost...

My last post was in May??!!

Ah, I think I should have thought this out a bit more before I started this. I got self conscious about the blog and questioned why I was doing it.Well I'm over the naval gazing, but what is there to do at this point. Probably just recap the past few weeks (well, months) and what I'm doing at the moment.

In general

• I got rid off one of my 3 cars through an auction place. (£50. Great.) The second car is going back to my mate over the weekend (I wasn't able to sell it for him) as soon as I put another 6 months of tax on it
• I took my wife on holiday, to Malaga, which was terrific. We're going to try and get away again to Barca later in the year
• My brother is making a reasonable recovery and also had a baby boy. (We went to see the baby on the weekend.)
• My friend's business is still in trouble. I've helped out with some concept development and general support but really I've mainly been less of a friend and more of a pain in the ass for him. Well, its because I think he has to start thinking about how his nice piece of software can make money, as opposed to it being so good, someone will buy it. Lets see what happens.
• My Japanese is as good as it was 90 days ago BUT I did manage to get hold of some good language materials, so am hoping to progress that soon.
• On the work front, we have some of our people in jobs now which is good, some of the fledgling businesses I mentioned, that is a tougher prospect but lets see what happens...

And I rediscovered 'The Young Turks', an American internet news/ comment outlet. I love these guys. For example:

Ok I said that originally, my 100 ends on August 14th, which gives me 9 days.

I'll weigh myself tomorrow, and see what I can do to sort out the filming and writing between now and then.

Nothing like a bit of pressure... but why not, what else am I doing?
