I'm going to join a gym, for at least thirty days. There's a gym just what, two minutes from here, well, four at most. And they are offering a nice little deal for thirty days that is rather agreeable. I've developed a spare tire over the yearsthat I've finally acknowledged. Now, I could just go walking and running four times a week and not spend that money on that, but...Winter is nigh and I have this damn phugging cold that I've had since October so...a gym makes sense. Oh yeah, being in Canada, also means Winter is cold, brr. And on a real cold day, going out to walk or run would be rough.

Yeah, yeah. The money is an issue, but I've been slim for what, thirty of my thirty-five years so letting that slip away is not something I am about to do. Okay, it slipped away, but I am going to get it back.I don't want a damn belly, so...the money will be well spent.

But, come Spring and Summer, I can walk, run and bike around. And iniate my book while fitnessing. I'd say written, but the idea is to dictate into a digital tape recorder that I can download straight into the computer. And such a thing is available for a reasonable price.

Of course, this hinges on me having a job and using the "daily" writer's discipline. Two things that are easier said than done. Especially the job. Potential employers can't, or choose not to, see past the less than impressive paper history. Truthfully, it's their loss. Mine too, but I just have to work at it harder and better damnit!

Sigh! Blah! Argh!

Oh the book, the second of my Hyslin series is weighing on me. I'm going to have to write some notes down, something I don't like to do. But...I need to finish this series. I just have to. And I am going to! Easier said than done for sure but a book that grew from a story into a book and then a series just has to be finished properly.

Well, I'd love to stick around, but the usual applies, my time is up as I have a couple of other things to do so I'll be going now. So until tomorrow. I'm out.
