Coffee

I was feeling a little bit sluggish today and something occured to me: It used to be rare that I felt this way because I drank a lot of coffee. While I was in law school, I had nothing if not caffeine in my system. Now I almost never have coffee. I think that anyone who has ever had coffee has had the experience of drinking a bit too much and feeling a little bit jittery or not being able to fall asleep fast enough.

This made me wonder: How many people have ever drank too much coffee and it was a serious problem. At what point does a person have too much coffee and they reeeeeally are not okay? Has coffee ever pushed someone over the edge? No one ever talks about that sort of thing...

My new blog

When I first started blogging on myspace, I thought that I would only blog on that website. Now that I have posted a number of blogs, I figured that I would start a blog on a more formal site.

Recently, I took a trip to Ann Arbor. I have been to Ann Arbor since I graduated but something was different about this time. It felt like it was vaguely familiar: Like I was remembering it from a dream and not somewhere i had actually been before. It was cool to be back for a few days, see some friends, and be productive but it made me miss L.A. more. Also made me think about what i would have done differently if I could go back in time and be in undergrad again. I guess everyone thinks about that sort of thing, though.

I also thougt that that this was interesting. I have been doing a new workout lately. Its one that I can do at home so its cool. The interesting thing about it is that I didnt expect it to be nearly as effective as it has been. I just sort of made it up on the spot and didn't expect it to have much of an impact all. I was wrong. I have spent more than 3 hrs per day five times per week and seen worse results. The workout is 100 pushups, then I do a circuit that consists of 15-20 pushups, 100 crunches, and 50 squats. I do this circuit until I can't anymore. Every week I just do more of each. It defnitely doesnt take the place of going to the gym but it is helping a lot in the meantime...
