Projects to contemplate.

1. Weight loss. At the gym today, 372. Well, I'm exercising every day, but it's all about the calories (thanks g0atface) so there's something to work on. Prolly a food log combined with Body for Life after a Scarsdale ketosis burn.

2. Pictures from above: Need to make a camera rig with controller, like the one from Burning man--it's pretty easy to convert an R/C machine to camera running. This was a tech challenge to the Rubber Chicken learning forum about 4 years ago that they never took up.

3. Life sized chess set. Cool one from Burning Man 2005

I want to make one where the pieces can move themselves. Hmm.

#2-- what was it you're going to take pictures of?

The ground.

The neighborhood, the beach, the parks...Stonehenge, someday.

I find when I write down what I eat (or spend), I'm pretty thrifty. When I don't, it's hard to keep things under control.

Now if I can just find the inspiration to carry my little blue book again :-)

p.s. So when do you want to start working out again? ;-)
