i have a new quest even though it’s more of a challenge. i started it January 1st, 2009. the quest is (as the title of this post states) 100 push-ups. it’s an idea i got from the CrossFit website – the 100 push-up challenge. that is on the first day, you do one push-up. on the second day, you do two push-ups… you do that for 100 days, each day adding one more push-up. i figured this would be a good reintroduction for me into the world of ‘lifting’ with my shoulder being still not at 100%. today, i did my 12 push-ups. and i’ve noticed me leaning more on my left arm the last couple days of my push-ups. with me being cognizant of it, i’m trying to stay balanced on both of my arms.
initially, i thought it would be cool to post this as 100! pushups… which, of course, would be wrong because i had to google 100!. and google’s fun calculator returned the value 9.33262154 × 10157, which is big much bigger than i had thought… and that’s when i realized 100! is not 1+2+3+4…+99+100… it’s 1x2x3x4…x99x100. alas, the kewlness of the post’s title dropped 100! fold (ha).

you might say to yourself “self, what the??”
and it would only be appropriate for me to try to help you out. so here is my help:
it’s time for me to update the site. I’ve created two brand new WordPress websites for work (the UplandTales and LEP sites) and i started looking at my site some… i started this site a bunch of years ago and didn’t know jack about how WP works… well, i know more now and i realize i’ve not been using WP to it’s fullest – i’ve been doing a lot outside the box and it doesn’t need to be. i don’t have a design in place quite yet, so i’ll probably just keep the boring old WP standard theme in place until i get something put together (i have some ideas, but they’re still in my head). but i wanted to start putting the blocks in place to use WP as the CMS it’s become and not just a blogging tool as i was using it before.
i love the fluidity of the internets!
edit: i just uploaded and activated my old theme, which surprisingly, doesn’t break anything. w00t! so the site will continue to look like this with not much going on cept the blog, until i get a design/theme put together – so ‘more of the same’, anyone??
