I really enjoyed Tron Legacy yesterday afternoon (3D Imax), probably as much as I used to love the original when I was a kid. I think they did a great job getting the same feel as the original movie, while updating the technology of it. I think perhaps they could have done more with the theme of aiming for perfection being a dangerous game. The whole idea of people having to think for themselves or they'll get soft/the tech will take over of the original movie definitely seemed to be emphasized more than the perfection issue was emphasized in this one. Still, awesome movie!

I'm fighting a cold and I'm determined for it not to take hold. Tea, rest and neti, repeat repeat! It's at the throat is scratchy stage and not progressing past that over the past few days.

Gym today! I'm going to work in some weights this time, perhaps cutting out some cardio. I don't have a lot of time to spend because I need to walk over, workout and shower and walk back here within the hour (the gym is in the building next door). I'll figure out a good sort of balance. I didn't make it there on Friday but ballet was hugely butt kicking on Saturday after having had 2 weeks off. I was extremely sore yesterday but I'm feeling a bit better today.

There's been a lot of discussion in our local 501st forums about leadership style, politics and the like as we near the election period. I will be happy again to step back and just be a 'normal trooper' for a while. There are other places that I would like to put my thoughts and my time at the moment.

My reading of http://www.amazon.com/Spontaneous-Healing-Discover-Enhance-Maintain/dp/0449910644 continues. I'm really enjoying it - it is just the right level of science and story. It has definitely been inspirational with continuing to improve my eating habits.

we went to see Tron 3D IMAX yesterday, too!!! it was pretty awesome. i admit i was completely impressed. i didn't expect to be as i was NOT actually a fan of the original. Tron the first just never grabbed me like it seemed to have impressed everyone else i knew.

the only drawback for us was arguing with the movie theatre guy who gave us one pair of Digital 3D glasses and one pair of IMAX 3D glasses. which, as we discovered are NOT the same. one you can see 3D and the other you cannot. try arguing this to the guy handing out the glasses though and you'd thought we were making a federal case!! :P

You know, I really love lunch workouts, and I try to sneak them in whenever I can - which is only when my boss isn't around because to get there, work out for 45 mins, shower and come back = 75 minutes or so. But it's worth it. I've tried many times to be a morning gym-goer and get myself up early but I never seem to be able to do it.
