An honest to goodness real blog post.

It's been some time I've actually posted something beyond a news commentary in my blog, so here goes...

Christmas is rapidly approaching and with it my schedule has become pretty crowded with parties and the like. Last weekend I had the OANDA Christmas Party (a lot of fun) on Friday, a big dinner party Saturday (at The Keg... incidentally, their tempura snap peas and asparagus appetizer is excellent) and a baptism and gigantic Italian luncheon on Sunday.

This coming weekend is just as crazy with a private birthday dinner for Karina on Thursday, the Project Childcare Foundation "We have Charity Status" Party at Spoke on Friday and the Toronto Liverpool Supporters Club Dinner on Saturday. Thursday also marks the one year anniversary of Karina and my engagement.

Work continues to move along with some of the initiatives I have been working on starting to move forward. In less than two months we have hired a five-man web team and they are beginning to implement a number of the changes and additions I have proposed. The one tool I am particularly excited about is also appearing to move significantly forward.

Today marked my first day of working out in almost a week what with my schedule. The weeks prior (following my return from California) I had been pretty good about my workout routine managing to get out almost every day. With a new weight-lifting scheme designed for me, I have been working on getting my protein consumption up, but it was netted an increase in calories, so I'll need to address that soon. Humberto called me today to say that the new gym won't be ready until the new year... he sounded pretty stressed.
