Update Update!

Hrm... so what's been happening?

♦ After a documented horrendous start to my baseball season, I've gone 7 for 14 with two doubles in addition to two walks over the past four games to increase my batting average from 0.219 to 0.304 (coming from a low of 0.182). My secret? Switching to a wood bat. Not sure if it's extra focus or the smell of the maple, but I'm starting to get hot -- just in time for the playoffs! Despite our struggles the whole year, we won our second game last night and have been playing good baseball of late. Hopefully we'll keep this rolling into our last two games and continue it on in the post season.

Feel the Louisville Slugger. Thanks to Brian/Trevor for the pic!

♦ The trailer for the upcoming AMC series, The Walking Dead, based off the addictive reading Image comic book is out. It starts almost exactly like 28 Days Later, but I'm fifty issues in and if the TV's show anywhere near as good as the book it'll be a solid retelling. And all from the director of the Shawshank Redemption!


♦ My trip to Hawaii is in a little under a month, and my plan for a beach ready body is in jeopardy. I've gone to the gym twice in the past three weeks, and eating and sleep habits have been terrible. I'm skinny... and fat. Hopefully I can make the most of these remaining four weeks.

♦ I just bought a cast iron grill pan and cannot wait to use it to pump out some steaks. There are high hopes this will be the best $18 I'll ever spend. I'm not ready to make an investment on a full on grill yet, so this should be a viable alternative and take pan frying to a whole new level. Not to mention my chicken now looks classy with the cross hatching grill marks.

♦ I may or may not have just bought a house.
