Lifting update

I can't exactly remember what numbers I put up on Friday for bench and squat, but they're up slightly since I last posted on weight lifting.  I want to really try and dig in on squat today.  Go really low down as by so doing I'm not sure if I'll be able to do the weight I have been, which is ok cause I want the gains to be legit.  It'll suck and seem like I'm digressing, but I want to do it.  I'll let you know how it goes.  I want to start working my arms too.  I need to find some barbells me thinks.  I looked at a couple of the self adjusting numbers where it is just one bar, but with a click of a button it can do many different weights...well...for the 50 lb ones was like $300 bones so I'm gonna look online to see what else I can find.  I'll also need a program.

Scrabble...

I hate that game.  It sucks.  I did a test at the Johnson O'Conner research center and scored above average on my word vocab/understanding and I still get my ace kicked anytime I play that friggin' game.  Well my wife wanted to play last night and so we did.  I won.  What?  Hold the phone.  I never have won that game.  Truth is my wife helped me out by pointing out that I could the s tile and play off of that so I didn't really win as she pointed out ways to help me win.  We'll have to rematch w/o her help to see if it was indeed a fluke.  To be continued...

Coding update

So I’ve mentioned in previous posts that I’m learning coding in my free time.  One idea I had was to start a website called webpagewehab.com (available as I checked godaddy) and have people visit it and I would get a business going that would basically rehab their sites for them for a small fee or even free to start out and get some reviews/clientele/portfolio going.  This weekend I was learning about html and it seems fairly straightforward and not quite as intensive, yet, as Javascript, which is what I’ve mostly been learning about in code year.

            The idea came from my wife’s mother’s day present actually.  I bought her a mani-pedi and when I went on the business’ website it was awful.  I thought I could do it better for them fairly easily and I don’t really know much about webpage rehabbing.  When I thought of a name to give my site and thought of rehabbing I thought of several variations with that one seeming to be the best even others might make more sense/sound better.  I’m going to do a survey on this.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

As you're aware I've also made a bet to get coding knowledge.  So far I haven't missed a week of doing 5+ hours of coding else I'm out $20 to some chump I know :)  One cool thing that happened is that he called, my accountability guy, and said he talked to a buddy who works at American Express and mentioned that perhaps I could land something there.  While that is cool and a little bit exciting, I probably need more experience and the guts to actually pull a website off like the above to show people I'm serious/know some stuff and can contribute with higher pay!
