The year’s coming to an end, and as always, I am checked in at Edsa Shang (for all the stalkers, I’m the best looking dude there).  It’s been a pretty good couple of days lately, full of lifting (hotel gym) and swimming (hotel pool) and basketball (THEY HAVE A BASKETBALL COURT!).  I’m actually  on track to lose weight fast too, despite the buffets.

My pants aren’t as tight as they used to be, and my shirts all fit a lot better.  Which is a good thing.  Also got an awesome set of weights at home, which I have used everyday since (well, except for these last few days since I’m at the hotel), and I’ve still got some whey protein left over.

Yeah, it’s the Second Coming!  Some people aren’t convinced, but.. yeah, it’s looking pretty good so far.

Conceited Man Christmas Dinner!

The fellas and the girlfriend!  I ate so much, it’s not even funny anymore.  Feel pretty bloated today, though.  Also, my throat’s pretty sensitive because of all the oil and fat I had.  Tis the season to be festively plump.

YES, I’M FAT, ANO BA!

We ballin!

Played my first real game of basketball in a long time yesterday.  The rust was pretty obvious, but I still played pretty well.  I’d give myself a C.  There was one point in the second game though, when I started feeling it.  I basically told all my teammates to just take care of the defense and just leave all the scoring to me.  I’m sure that didn’t make me any friends.  I scored 6 straight points, but we still lost.  I guess this means I’m going to have to play with them again and kick their candy asses?

Some people recognized me, too.  They all said I got FAT.  Yet ANOTHER reason to go back and kick their candy asses!  You realize I like saying candy ass a lot?  We bring the whoopin, you bring that candy ass!

I have decided to try enter contests with this blog, just because I can. I figure I wouldn’t mind a free trip to wherever, or free furniture or gadgets and all sorts of other swag. Why not, right? If the internet wants to give it away, I’m there!

So you might see a lot of crazy stuff over here over the next few months. Don’t panic, it’s just me selling out. What can I say? I’ve got new Titan luggage I am just itching to use, and I need a free trip to do that!

Got to love Christmas.  One of the few times a year I can take a vacation.  Now I don’t mean traveling to gulf shores al or the beach or what.  For me, all I really want to do is spend time in my bed.  Maybe get in around ten hours of sleep every night.  That would make for an awesome vacation.  Then I’d get up, knowing there was no work to be done.

That would be the most awesome Christmas gift.  Well, no.  I wouldn’t mind getting a million bucks for Christmas, either.  I could live with that, yeah.

I must admit, I have not used antivirus software in a really long time, probably because I am on a Mac and haven’t really felt the need to.  Recently though, my mom got herself a new laptop, and since it isn’t a Mac, we figured it would need some sort of protection.

I am pretty much leaning towards using Sun Belt software right now.  I like a fast computer.  A clean, fast computer.  But sometimes, it’s so hard to have both.  Most antivirus programs bog down your computer more than a virus would, in my experience.  I don’t like having to sacrifice speed for a clean computer.

Sun Belt software works like a charm, though.  It doesn’t take up much resources while keeping your computer free of viruses, so you still get the speed you want.  Just because it doesn’t hog resources though, doesn’t mean it isn’t effective.  It’s got email protection, malware protection, everything.  You could say they have a very proactive approach to protecting your computer.  Oh, and no hidden credit card charges every year (don’t we all hate those?).

All in all, I think it’d be ideal for my mom’s netbook.

When I get into a sport, I really get into a sport.  When I was in high school, I was a table tennis fanatic.  You would see me hanging around the ping pong tables every break time.  That’s just the way I roll.

Lately though, I haven’t been playing basketball.  I really should.  I am getting kind of pudgy around the waist area, and winning always helps me lose weight.  Yeah, I win most every time.  Blowing my own horn also helps me lose weight.

Ever notice how awesome the houses in MTV Cribs are?  They have got the best stuff money can buy.  The best pool tables, the best televisions, the best sinks even.  Man, it pays to be rich.  That sounds kinda funny, right?  Pays to be rich?  I crack myself up.

Anyway, I don’t think I’ll ever get that loaded.  I’ll be happy with a simple house.  With an awesome gym.  And an awesome basketball court.  I’ll be happy with that.

My future bathroom will have glass tiles.  Or maybe not.  I guess it’s not really going to be up to me, if you fellows know what I mean.  It’s the ladies who make these decisions!  All we’re supposed to do is pay for everything!  But I WILL insist on my basketball court and my home gym.  These are the bare necessities!

Speaking of which, I have got to get myself working out again.  Then again, it is the season to be festively plump.

By the way, I realize how much of an awesome blogger I am.  I knock out a hundred and fifty words in less than five minutes, just like that.  Am I really that wordy?  In any case, I think it is absolutely awesome.

I wish I could find a job that requires me to play basketball.  Obviously, that isn’t going to be the NBA, since well let’s face it:  I’m good, but I’m not THAT good.  The PBA is an okay option I guess, although I’m not sure I’d make much money playing in the local league.  Probably Europe is where it’s at.  Yeah, I think I could probably live with that.

ANYWAY, before I get myself dreaming about balling for a living, I’ve got to get back in shape first!  Damn I’m fat.
