30min

Checking my iTunes playlist of new music, I just passed the 30 minute mark of new stuff that I’ve written.  Eight tunes so far, between two and six minutes. I think they feel as part of one project.  I think a couple more song-ish tunes and I’ll dump the lot of them online.

It’s a good feeling to know my way around the set of tools to compose, not fighting with the software or the interface and just creating. I couldn’t imagine having this technology in school.

on the road to 400

Pulled a 385lb deadlift this morning: no belt, no gloves, no knee-braces.  That was on set number six with another five speed sets afterward and 4.5 hours of sleep. The rest of the year is scheduled for heavy deadlift, squat and bench.

I’m working on a three month plan to start the year with an emphasis on cutting some weight and focusing on mobility. I love being excited to hit the gym, looking forward to pushing things a bit and testing my abilities.
