What the hell am I doing up?

So here I am, waking up at the butt-crack of dawn at 5:18 PST when I should be sleeping in.

Thing is, it’s been kind of nice taking a lackadaisical approach to getting ready instead of blasting out the door in an early morning mental fog that my black coffee injection hasn’t fought off yet.

A shower, a shave. The gathering of the newspaper and subsequent perusing of the funnies, sports and politics. In that order.

Never mind that the paper is the Sac Bee and that I pretty much detest it.

That said – Pearls Before Swine was pretty funny today. Nothing beats Cajun Crocs doing a follow up customer survey on the cousin of a zebra they ate.

And on the sports side, big man and ex UC Davis Aggie is doing ok on a crappy St. Louis Rams team as their TE (technically he’s their H-Back). Nice to see a local guy making good.

Maybe he retires, drops 10lbs or so and takes out Brock Lesnar. Someone has to.

Fight Gone Bad!!

The past few months

Since Thanksgiving of 2008, I have fought off four diverticulitis attacks, had corrective surgery for the same and opened my business, CrossFit Davis.

Everything is going well! I just started to exercise again and we continue to add clients. Yay!

I just finished that site not too long ago. If you need car service in NYC – they are the peeps to go with.

Diverticulitis, Ulcerative Colitis, CrossFit Davis

There’s been a noticeable lack of posts here.

Kind of had things going on — on all sorts of fronts. On one front there’s the whole planning CrossFit Davis thing. On the other front I’ve been hospitalized 2x because I have the body of the 27 year old me but the intestines of an 80 year old. That’s hyperbole, but fairly representative about how I feel about it.

Oh yeah, I also found out I only have one kidney. How about that? I now consider myself a spokesperson for kidney donation and the record holder for all CrossFit WODS performed by a one kidneyed male. Turns out you can just get by with one.

Back to the hospitalization thing….

Amazing. I eat right. I CrossFit. I do all the right stuff. Wham. Two bouts of (most likely) diverticulitis and my UC is back as well. A cynics view would be to look at it like it makes no difference, all that effort, all the discipline of CrossFit and managing a fairly paleo diet if this is what’s going to happen anyway.

I feel like it saved my life though.
