It only took three weeks, but I’m done. Last night I unpacked the last box that was marked “needs to be unpacked.” I have a few others in the closet that I should go through eventually, but they’re mostly archives and such. So that’s a really good feeling; I’d be lying if I said it didn’t cause me a bit of anxiety every day I returned home to a stack of boxes that needed going through.<br/><br/>Living solo is going well. I’ve been working out a lot, eating really well (I’m actually in need of a new belt), and I’ve found it important to plan things/hang out with people a lot more… The beer garden across the street is really helping that cause.<br/><br/>For the past two weeks, I’ve really bumped up my riding, tried to run more (it’s still a small amount), went swimming/bought a pool membership for the summer, and have tried to eat a lot better… I’ve lost more than 5lbs since moving, which includes a trip to Vegas (I usually gain 5 there)… and as mentioned, I need a new belt. Even when I was in the low 170s when running a lot last year, I didn’t need a new belt… I think my general fitness is much higher despite my cardio being way low. The past six months at the gym are the likely cause of that.<br/><br/>I’ve also been really tired. Since moving, I don’t think I’ve slept a full night. Every night, about 45 minutes after going to bed, I wake up with a second wind. I typically fight myself back to sleep after about an hour, but then wake up again another hour later. After fighting back again, I finally get some rest, but I wake up for work feeling far too groggy. I’m going to attribute this to all the changes going on and the feeling of being unsettled… Now that I’m unpacked and I can start enjoying my new place, I’m hoping this will change.<br/><br/>Having become a fan of soccer over the past few years, I’ve been loving the World Cup. I’ve watched most every game between live TV, DVR, and webcasts. I’m a big hater of the <a href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vuvuzela” target=”_blank”>vuvuzelas</a>. I know a number of casual watchers who refuse to watch because of them… That’s not good for the sport.<br/><br/>I guess that’s about it… Tomorrow I go to make wine with some friends, should receive my <a href=”http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/technologybrierdudleysblog/2012114753_e3_xbox_press_conference_start.html” target=”_blank”>new Xbox</a> (whisper quiet, 250GB HD, HDMI, and smaller form-factor, which will upgrade my 1st gen. model) later this week, I have a party to attend on Saturday (Caribbean-style), receive my <a href=”http://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2010/06/iphone-4-details-revealed.html” target=”_blank”>iPhone4</a> (I’m upgrading a 2-year-old model) next week, and a wedding next weekend… The calendar is packed.<br/><br/>I’ve also taken a look at vacation. I recently scrapped plans to go to Dominica in July because they simply weren’t coming to fruition. Instead, I added a week-long trip to see the family in NC… Working half days remotely is really nice; do the visit/vacation thing while not burning up all my time. Besides, four hours a day is nothing. I also scheduled such a trip in September, and a final one for the year in December. In October, I’m hoping to head to Miami for <a href=”http://www.socafestmiami.com/” target=”_blank”>Carnival</a>. All that leaves me with 12 days leftover… I’m not a huge fan of carryover… Maybe a week or two wandering Europe in September or SE Asia in November?
