I made my first phone call with my Blackberry today. I’ve been using it for email and nothing else so far. I called my friend Greg and his wife answered and she kept saying, “Hello? Hello? Hello?” I thought my phone was broken until she started laughing. Sheesh. Sounds like Greg came down with the ‘flu and we may not make it to the ham radio thing this weekend.

I successfully made it to the gym four times this week. It’s making me sleep well if nothing else. When I got there today, Dave the Trainer’s client Craig told me that I need a social life. What would I do with one of those? A couple of days ago I found out that Dave the trainer had broken up with his girlfriend again. This time it might take, because she’s left the country. At first I thought it would be bad because we’re fishing from the same pool. Then I realized that I’m usually playing golf when I should be fishing. Besides, fishing requires me to get up early in the morning and get bit by mosquitoes and I’m not down with that.

Oh, the other thing this working out and being tired has made me do is look up weird videos on YouTube. I mean, why am I listening to, “The Humpty Dance,” “Same Song,” “Da Dip,” and “911 is a Joke,” when I have all those on my iPod already? “Da Dip,” and “911 is a Joke,” get stuck in my head when I’m at the gym because of dips, and the Public Enemy lyrics, “Get up, get get, get down.”

I’m not sure why, but the other song that got stuck in my head when I was working out with Dave the Trainer was, “Baby Got Back.”
