I Am My Own NSA When It Comes To Music

It's time yet again to put on my Data Analysis Cosby hat and churn out some fun graphs based upon the listening habits of those using my ever present music page (a misnomer since it's done video for a long time now). Unlike last time where I just compared myself to my brother Chris (the other heavy user of the product), today are just some general stats of when music is played and how much we're listening to. Steve (yet another brother) has become quite active with this, and as such is pretty high on the charts as well.

Accountability Report - A Little Tipsy

Contrary to yesterday's post, I should embrace the accountability report because it's stupid simple to write. A handful of subjects and some words on how I failed to meet them. Works well today when I'm buzzing a bit and just need to get a post out.

Health - I actually did very well last week, biking to work four out of five days and keeping away from the sweets. I stumbled a bit on Friday where I had a heart stopping burger and didn't bike, but it could have been worse. The weekend was fairly low key calorie wise as well. Compare that to today where I had four beers while conversing with a certain USB input virtual accessor and killing digital robots and then following it up with Taco Bell. Not great to be sure. Also, it's been rainy, so I haven't biked. Tomorrow I plan on changing that.

Finances - I'm still running through the list of stuff I need to get for living in my new quarters. This weekend, I acquired myself a new bed, one of much higher quality than I'm used to having; certainly one that cost more money than I would've otherwise been comfortable in parting with. Additionally, a small trip to Japantown drained a few dollars, but not too bad.

Japanese - Ain't done squat, and this is unacceptable. Though, I do often listen to some of the audio lessons when they pop up on random during bike rides... this isn't actually helping me, though. It does sometimes re-enforce the little Japanese I do know, I guess.

Forever Unfinished

I was going to do an accountability report today, but I don't want to type that much. Instead, I'll give you some pictures of in progress comics... that have been that way for probably a year now. A couple of these I'll probably finish eventually, and one I don't even remember the premise for, so it'll forever remain a mystery.
