tuesday otherwise

I have a lot of things I've been forgetting to do.
I stayed at work until 9:30pm to run some scripts and watch playoff games. I came home, ate food, played PP a little, then went back out to play DDR. I actually played harder than I usually do, and I started getting a terrible neckache/headache while playing the Dancemania nonstop. The aches haven't gone away yet, which kind of sucks.
In PP I have a Halloween outfit though :)

Work till 9:30? Well, that certainly explains why I'm not seeing much of you on ICQ anymore ... yeesh. :)

Nope, that'd be because one of those "things I keep forgetting to do" includes "re-install Trillian on my computer" after clearing it out due to spyware a few weeks ago. I'll get around to it soon. I'm still on AIM on my phone.

Whee halloween side by side :)

I've been having back and neck problems for weeks now, after a month or so of DDR. Posture may be a contributing problem; when doing DDR I tend to lean forward, which is not good. So, be warned. DDR is excellent exercise, but I guess it should be taken as one part of an exercise program.

Well, in the four and a half years I've been playing DDR, the backaches and neckaches mostly occur when I'm just vastly out of shape in other ways and am pushing myself too hard. I compensate for getting tired and not wanting to use energy to do the steps with bad posture I think. It's sort of hard to explain without seeing it. Most people in Seattle just hold on to the bar in that situation. Hee.

It'd probly be better if I wasn't just playing Heavy songs straight through for 30-45 minutes - in the old days I'd go to IZ and have to wait 10-20 minutes between sets.
