Life update, no actual numbers!

Okay, a number or two might appear in here. 

So lets see, today's my birthday.  It's been an interesting past year.  Good, bad, ups, downs.  People came, people went.  Not sure some of those were for the best, but eh.  Anyway, 42 down, 7 to go. Okay, that was morbid but it made me laugh.  Man, if I die in like 7 years, whoever reads this will think back to it and be like "what the fuck?!?!"  Okay, so the things that really matter.  The gym.  Only two days at the gym this week.  Partner is out of town for business which is a good thing, not sure he realized how hard training for a meet is on the joints/tendons.  So a few days of rest will help us both heal.  Speaking of healing and the gym, for the first time in a long time, my pain levels have been pretty decent.  Not sure if I've gotten used to the unholy amount of ankle pain or it has actually gotten better, but either way, I'll take it.  Being about 30 pounds lighter I'm sure helps, but still.  Oh and don't worry, I'm still about 330 pounds, it's been nice, I've actually lost a little more, but it's all been from the waist, at least according to my friend David who saw me from the back the other day and didn't realize it was me, he said as soon as he saw me he was like "damn, that dude is a beast"  and yes, I checked, he said "a beast" not "obese."  Work is going good, got a promotion, it feels like a good fit, so that's nice too.  Now, lastly, health... had my 6 month blood work done yesterday.  Test levels are good, blood sugar is good, cholesterol is good, and liver function is good.  So I got that going for me, I blame this straight edge lifestyle I live.  Now, time to end my birthday the best way I know how.  Glass of scotch and Taylor Swift videos.
