The Butterfly From the South Side Flies Higher Now That I'm Alive!

Tuesday, November 17, 2020

You might have noticed that I took a "break" from this site. OK, so I gave the appearance of a complete site shutdown! Momentarily, I considered a return to WordPress. (Once again) I also made a strong push to leave Google, but as I received reports that Google was labeling my ProtonMail email as dangerous...well...I'm back..."The Matrix Has (Me)," right?

I just wish I found out sooner before running through a factory reset on my phone and thriving in a world without a Google account!

Nevertheless, I'm back...and have a laundry list of websites I gotta go back and update.

Yet the biggest impact of leaving Google for me wasn't in losing my Google One access, Google Sheet use, or YouTube customization; the biggest shift I saw was in my sudden cessation in the gym. I did not work out one time!

That's gonna change...that's GOTTA change!

And it has...today, according to my Nike Run Club app, my hike at the state park today went for 7 km. I haven't hammered out my new routine as of yet, but if fits into the schema:

  • Monday - Weights (Back) & Bagwork
  • Tuesday - Run / Walk / Hike
  • Wednesday - Weights (Chest) & Bagwork
  • Thursday - Run / Walk / Hike
  • Friday - Weights (Shoulders) & Bagwork
  • Saturday - Run / Walk / Hike
  • Sunday - Run / Walk / Hike

Spring 2021, as Dead or Alive once sang, "Watch out here I come!"

"...To stretch out my arms like Wolverine and rail against the tempest of Death."
