Oops. Looks like I've turned the Post your face thread into a camera thread. Sorry y'all. And yeah, all my other dslr carrying friends converted to mirrorless awhile back already too. My dslr is too bulky but I haven't put my mind to doing the research to upgrade yet.

oh hey, thanks. yeah the camera technologies and the prices keep changing. i had a waterproof 5mp point and shoot that I got for $500 in '08? can't believe i spent $500 on that now..

yep. must have been $$ when you got it. i should check whether those have come down in price. been thinking about getting one for awhile now.

is that one of those mirrorless cameras Olias?

Interesting! Thanks for posting. Never heard of a hospitalist before.

sometimes i wonder if i should get a pt job serving. tips are so good. i could never balance things on trays though..

H, do you not miss the social aspects of the job? or are you pretty much connected electronically anyway?

yep. found it on the interwebz so it's totally real. =P

saw this and thought of this thread. go leg day

Schneidy. Lack hasn't played enough.

Don't get cocky then. Yeehaaing = bad news for the rest of us. (unless you're going to do a winter driving course like me. i will be doing a lot of yeehawing then. lol. i hope.)

Everyone I'm catching up with seems to be complaining about their jobs. Made me think about posting a 'Rate your job' article. My job scores straight 7s = 21/30. I have a 35 minute commute, don't have to share my office, am able to use my knowledge, like my coworkers and am invested in the well being and future of my 'clients'. Hate my lack of sleep but like the vacation and pension. EDIT: Poll added.

lol. totally. but if i was the only one on the road, it'd be fine. it's having to deal with the rest of the drivers that's a problem. just finished taking the dog for a walk. it's spitting out in van. i wouldn't call it snow.

you can just send them this gif as a response.

TS, you get that question a lot, eh?

sunday, bloody sunday

spent an hour laughing at the choice of music for this van damme commercial.. which spawned the channing tatum parody..

Eww.

Nausea is scary. After all of the strokes around me, the first thing i think about is high blood pressure. But there's lots of other explanations - low blood sugar, lactic acid buildup, dehydration, low blood pressure, low oxygen... Don't brush it off though. Figure out what's causing it.

Interesting. I've never seen lifting wrist wraps before. I'm only familiar with the boxing wraps which are much longer to wrap around the knuckles. Heeeyyy, your back pain sounds like it's getting better then! Good!

Go for it. No impact, full body. Don't be surprised if you gain weight. I remember reading that your body temp is lower and you feel more hungry after swimming than other types of exercises so you tend to eat.. mind you, i don't remember where i read that so it could've been just testimonials rather than having any science behind it. my mechanic wanted to lose weight and went back to swimming and gained weight so there may be something to it.. I like swimming, long distance blading, the stationary bicycle and the rowing machine for cardio.

i've never dealt with any social clique BS in a gym. you go in, do your thing, don't talk, don't make eye contact and you get out. sort of like taking public transit. lol. your problem originated from the spacing out and staring. no one likes to be stared at! it either creeps people out making people avoid you or it turns them aggressive. knee-jerk reaction would be "wtf are you looking at?" you've already got a rep at this gym and that's hard to alter. i'd say move gyms. keep a low profile. no one cares if you avoid people or don't smile or don't talk to anyone. however, they will notice if your social behaviour is different. be aware of what makes them uncomfortable. i guess you are aware though.. lol. i guess.. just control it..
