One fat geek's SUCCESSFUL attempt to regenerate into a not-so-fat geek by watching the entirety of Doctor Who while walking on a treadmill

Still Alive

The Time Treadmill

Still Alive

Holy cow, it's been a month? I got a sinus infection, which turned into an ear infection. Then I had to take an unplanned trip to the other side of the country for some family stuff. Then I got back to working out, but got another cold. Plus I got wrapped up in rehearsals for a show I am in. Mostly, though, I got a little behind on posting and then each day it got more difficult to catch up. So this is me saying, hi, I'm still alive and still on the treadmill. Tomorrow I will catch up with my data entry, and fill you in with what I have been watching. Friday I have a date for a photo op with David Tennant and John Barrowman, so I expect I will have a little somethign to post then. Thank you to everyone who reached out to me to see if I was ok. I really am, but I appreciate your concern. More tomorrow.

Ah! Ventilation shafts. That takes me back. Or even forwards.

You looked inside me and you saw hatred. That's not victory. Victory would have been a good Dalek.

Good point. Perhaps, after I finish Blake's 7 and Sapphire & Steele, I should start a grand re-watch and dig back into the b&w era.

Regards the first year weight loss, could the science be that early Doctor Who was more conducive to weight loss than when it went color??? Could color TV be the problem?
