| xanga's been dying. i return after a long hiatus to show that it's not completely dead.
been depressed in general i guess. seems like i've been bored with life lately. it's like i'm stuck in a rut, just looking for the next weekend adventure to get me a temporary high...
not sure what the cure is. cuz if u just keep going to bigger adventures adventually you'll just crash and burn.

| hmmm. been about a month. i guess this is turning into a once a month thing. lately i been using this blog for devotionals http://dt.dahhh.com
anyways. i been in a contemplative mood lately. past/present/future.
i've come to accept that some things are past. i miss those days at lowell when it was so easy to get a football game together, we'd play out on the woodchips next to the gym almost every day. nowadays it seems like no one wants to play. iono why football was the first thing that came to my mind when i thought about the past. there are so many other things that i miss doing and so many other people that i miss seeing.... but it's all in the past...
the present seems so temporary. i've come to accept the fact that living in davis means people are constantly leaving and sometimes people are coming back. things seem to stay more or less the same for me, but it seems like everyone around me is changing.
thinking about the future makes me realize i'm not all that happy with the present. there's so much that i want to be doing yet none of it's really happening.

| paying for my current car makes me miss my old 87 prelude... i bought that thing for 200 bucks + a steak dinner. it lasted for about a year and a half before dying on the side of the freeway. i currently pay almost twice that much every single month for my subaru.
mang that prelude was slow as heck... grandma's in minivans were passing me.. and if i turned on the AC it would go even slower, and the lights would dim.... ahahah... but it was fun to drive
the subaru i drive now is definitely a fun car... i love it cuz it's so practical yet still cool enough... but mang paying for it sucks. after tax + interest payments and all that it's gonna end up costing me about 20000, or 100x as much.... it's definitely not 100x more fun, and i'm pretty sure it's not gonna last 100x as long either....

| last week I went to the doctor's for a routine physical and to see why i'm always tired. it turns out that i'm pretty healthy physically, but for some reason i'm still tired at work and home.
but for some reason when i'm outdoors i have crazy energy... i can hike 10 miles uphill with 35 pounds of backpacking gear.. i can bike 70+ miles in a day on my road bike... i can spend all day biking uphill and downhill on my mountain bike...
but as soon as i open a book, i fall asleep. if i'm in the office, i'm dead tired within a couple of hours... at home i just lie around all day....
that can only mean one thing... i must be solar powered...

| according to this calculator i burned approximately 2150 calories from biking 67 miles on saturday.
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Vista/6434/CalCalcApplet.html
they were serving chipotle burritos for the post ride meal. after the 5 hour ride i was crazy hungry. i ate 2.
according to this, the average number of calories per burrito is 1280.
http://www.eddieoneverything.com/nutrition/how-many-calories-are-in-your-chipotle-burrito.php
so i burned about 2150 calories, but ate about 2500, not including the gatorade and energy bars i ate during the ride...
