dramaguycjm @ 4:28pm: Wii Fit Workout Diary - Day 1 (Take 3!)
So after another failed attempt last month, I'm once again attempting to stick to a Wii Fit regimen and post blogs about it here. You know what they say, third times the charm. OK, let's try this again!

Wii Fit Workout - Day 1 (07/09/09)

Vital Stats

BMI
Current: 33.21

Goal: 32.62 by August 9th.

Weight
Current: 224.2 lbs

Goal: 220.2 by August 9th

Wii Fit Age
32 (+7 years over real age)

Workout

Duration: 32 minutes

Yoga
-Deep breathing
-Warrior
-Standing Knee
-Palm Tree

Strength Training
-Single Leg Lift; 10 reps
-Sideways Leg Lift; 10 reps
-Lunge; 10 reps
-Plank; 30 seconds (Quite difficult, in my opinion. Basically, you rest your forearms on the Wii Fit Balance Board and hold yourself up in a push-up position for the time indicated.)
-Rowing Squats; 15 reps

Balance Games
-Ski Slalom
-Snowbaord Slalom (Hated this!)
-Penguin Slide
-Balance Bubble

Aeorbics
-Advanced Step (Kinda hectic, but fun. Not only do you step forward, backwards and to the sides; but advanced adds stepping on the board sideways, stepping up and kicking, plus clapping as you step. Perhaps after I improve my coordination somewhat, I'll attempt clapping while I step)

-Rhythm Boxing; 3 minutes (Fun, though some of my punches failed to register. Then again, it was also my first time trying this activity, so perhaps my timing was a bit off)

-Basic Run; short course

dramaguycjm @ 9:44pm: My Next Entertainment Endeavor
First off, once again I can't thank everyone enough for listening to and enjoying Thoughts Out of Context. Six successful episodes so far, and I say there's no end in sight. So since it seems that people actually enjoy hearing me talk and are entertained by it, I'll take this opportunity to officially announce - as the title says - my next entertainment endeavor.

I had mentioned on a past episode of Thoughts Out of Context that I was planning on getting involved in the iRiffs community over at Rifftrax.com. For a full explanation of how iRiffs work, check out the website here: http://www.rifftrax.com/iriffs-faq

So I'm finally throwing my hat into the ring for iRiffs. My over-arcing concept will be "iRiff Because i Love", riffing on movies, tv shows and other such things I genuinely enjoy. Don't worry, I'm sure I'll find some crap somewhere to make fun of. The first movie I'm going to riff on is a movie that's very special to me since it was the first movie I ever saw in a theatre, "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" Keep an eye on this space for more info including release dates and future projects. Thanks again to everyone in advance for your support!
