Looking for a job!

I’m for hire! I’m looking for any work in Tokyo or Australia preferably, though I’m considering some positions in the United States. But really, I’ll work anywhere I can get a visa and that is fun. Money isn’t so important, I’m more interested in finding a fun company to work for that would actually use the experience I [...]

Almost again

So here I am. Sitting at my current employer’s place of business, bored out of my tree. People ask, “What is it like to live in Japan?”. I’ll tell you. Its great. Most of the time. Right now is not one of those times and I’m finding it hard to find good points about it. So what [...]

From the front line of the Revolution

My bit of philosophy for today. There are those of us in the tech industry who believe we’re the front line warriors for the next revolution. Revolutions have in the past been fought with swords and fire, with guns and cannons. The next revolution is one fought with words. With thought. With ideas and with communication. But what [...]

119.2! Wow

So, I’m now 119.2 KG! Not bad eh? Its about an average of 1.2/1.3 kg per week, along with the spikes and troughs, I’m happy. Also not so hungry now.

Day 11

I’m down to 123.2 kg as of this morning, the diet is not so hard now. I’ve caught some flu or cold or something and feel like crap. I have been sleeping most of the day.

Day 4 - THD

So, yesterday wasn’t quite so hard as teh day before, I think I ate a little more than the 500kcal, but I still managed to get down to 124.8kg which is down considerably from sunday when I weighed in at my heaviest of 129.2kg … about 4kg down in all. Now, obviously I can’t expect to [...]

End of Day 2

Well, I have managed to make it to the end of the day, and its not as bad as I thought it would be. I’ve managed to stick pretty much to the 500kcal, though I’m thinking the salad I had for dinner was more than 300kcal just because of the size of it… there was [...]

Lunch

I was pretty dismayed to read in my lunch break about the guy who tried to form a suicide party on-line over IM. This is pretty way out there. Also, the other thing that interested me was about an altered HIV virus that attacks cancer cells in mice. Is this a taste of things to come? [...]

Day 2

Oh boy, yesterday and last night was difficult. My body was beginning to feel like it had run a marathon or something. Ugh. Felt like shit ll night, and woke up with all my joints aching and muscles aching…. is this normal? Oh well, I guess I will press on. Yesterday I ate a smallish lunch [...]

Oh my god

its 5:25 almost, and my stomach is really complaining now about the lack of food. What is making it worse is that it is valentine’s day and there is chocolate to be had all around the office, and I can’t have any of it. I’m really going to eat a huge amount of lettuce when I [...]
