Awesome Log: Week of 2/9/12*
Performed with my wonderful musical improv team, Hollywood Kansas! It was our first show!
Deadlifted 100lbs.! (fyi, it was a Romanian deadlift)
Reduced my junk food intake significantly, and pledged to go cookie-free for exactly 30 days. Leftover Easter candy is still permitted.
Snuggled with a cute dude.
*Back by popular demand.
