Biking and then Some

Jan-24-2010 By nitrousworx

I miss it. I’ve been always saying about that since it’s been weeks since my last biking. I was supposed to go biking after work last Friday but that didn’t push through because I have to start on something or it will be long overdue. The fact of the matter, I haven’t started what I should have been started bu now and the biking was cancelled, all I did was read some insurance quote online since I kept staring at our laptop for hours and the page was opened. My wife was helping a friend and forgot to exit from the page. At least, I learned a thing or two about insurance. I promise to be more productive on the coming days. I will just have to spend time with my family this weekend and then I’ll concentrate on work for 2 days since Wednesday we’re off to Hong Kong for 4 days!

Web Design

Jan-22-2010 By nitrousworx

I have a huge project. I thought looking for cigars online and presenting it to my previous boss for purchase as gifts for his VIP friends who is supporting him is a challenge, well this one is bigger and more challenging.His wife actually asked me to design a website. Yikes! Now I need to refresh my knowledge in Flash and Dreamweaver. The timeframe is short and I need to remember all my stock knowledge. I don’t want to disappoint my boss and I always want to be good in the things I am asked to do. I’m actually seeing a college friend who’s expertise is in web designing to help me refresh my know-how. Above all, I hope I don’t get to disappoint myself. I got myself into this and I have to do it perfectly. Wish me luck!

For The Skin

Jan-20-2010 By nitrousworx

My wife was talking about an allergy relief she discovered online. I have a friend who got allergies from eating shrimps when he’s uncle went here for a vacation this month and they went out dining in Dampa. Since my wife works in a hospital and I am close to him when we were in College, he remembered to ask me about his condition. He was admitted for 2 days in the hospital due to difficulty in breathing. Thank God he is okay now and is recovering at home. He got rashes on his skin and is gradually subsiding. To bad he can’t come with me if ever we go biking this weekend. He wants to try mountain biking. :D

Not My Business

Jan-18-2010 By nitrousworx

I don’t know what’s wrong with my office mate but she asked me to help her find discount diet pills. I actually told this to my wife and she was furious. Telling me that why will a girl office mate ask me such a thing. The only reason I can think of is that I can search better and browse online more than anybody at work. I told my office mate that even if I know a few diet pills, I think that it is still not my business to give her information like that since we are not even friends. Women sometimes are weird, they will do anything for the sake of beauty. Darn!

24, Ain’t Enough!

Jan-17-2010 By nitrousworx

Can somebody add more hours in a day? Because 24 hours is just not enough! Tremendous activities during the weekends that I can’t squeeze in my biking. And with the eating out during the weekends I would be needing weight loss products to lose the calories I’m taking. I need exercise badly! But how can I do that if I work on weekdays from 8-5 and when I come home, it’s too dark to go trailing and on weekends there so much family errands to do that biking comes in the last of the list. Tomorrow is Monday once again, though work is not so busy nowadays, Monday is still and will always be the busiest day of my work week so yeah! Good luck to me!

Are Spas just for Women?

Jan-17-2010 By nitrousworx

My wife is convincing me we get a massage at her favorite spa but never in my life did I experience getting pampered like that. I mean, I was raised in a home where men are just men, don’t go to facial clinics, salons especially to a spa. I’d rather have murad skin care in the comforts of our home rather than spend time driving to the nearest spa which is actually not so far from our place. L is asking me to try it just one time but I have to take a rain check, her massages will do for now. I still don’t have the guts to lay naked in bed and have a stranger touch my body even if my wife permits it. She will have to be with her best friend on this one, I still think spas are there to pamper women after they pamper their husbands. hahaha…

The Oldies at Work

Jan-16-2010 By nitrousworx

We were chatting at work yesterday, it was a Friday and there is not much stuff to do, I was done designing this calling card for printing. Seriously these oldies at work don’t choose their topics, we covered almost all private subjects you can ever imagine. From hemorrhoid to hemorrhoid treatments, from mistresses and coming back to their wives, from cheating in a basketball game to keeping money matter secrets from their wives. From the ups to the downs of their lives. The conversations are light and though sometimes I end up being uncomfortable about their topics, I always end up laughing. They find humor in a bad situation but at the end of every conversation, they always talk about the lessons learned from it. I love the people I’m working with now, though I’m the youngest among the group, I don’t mind. I learn a lot from them.

New Helmet

Jan-15-2010 By nitrousworx

I will be biking again today. I filed for leave at work since I will be fetching my brother from the airport, he will be here from Dubai. My wife will stop teasing me that I need Fastin real bad. I gained weight from all the yummy foods this Holiday season. I will get back into mountain biking again religiously. I got my new helmet yesterday by the way which makes me more excited to go back.

Spyder Trax

So where will I lose the excess fats today? I will be biking in Aguinaldo while our Rav 4 gets fixed in the shop. Very relax Friday. Nice!

In Your Face

Jan-14-2010 By nitrousworx

This is not about somebody who switch my button! Not an enemy or anything similar. This is about a friend who actually wants to get rid of his pimples. He’s almost my age but still is problematic when it regards to his acne. He is still searching for the best acne medicine around.I sort of understand where he is coming from, my wife usually complains about her pimples and pimple scars. At her age, she still gets pimples once in a while not to mention the acne scars she is so conscious about. I certainly don’t mind it but it bothers her big time especially that she used to really have flawless skin. Oh well, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and I certainly think my wife is beautiful. I just hope my friend finds it in himself more confidence and acceptance. The stress he is giving himself might even cause the acne.

Seriously Considering?

Jan-13-2010 By nitrousworx

Yes another question for my title. haha… Sorry, my brain is blank right now. I can’t think of a more appropriate title. I want to go and try airsoft, I haven’t blogged about that right? Two things are actually hindering me to do it. For one it will be very expensive. Just a nice airsoft equipment will cost 9K. That’s what? 200USD. That doesn’t include the other needs for this hobby so I’m seriously considering. Second, I don’t think I will get enough exercise to keep me healthy with this sport though I will be running a lot and will need enough adrenalin, it will never compare to mountain biking. Well, I can suggest we buy an elliptical to burn the calories that I can’t burn from airsoft. My wife thinks, it is not enough to consider as a nice exercise. We will see what happens in the next few days. I really want to try this hobby, maybe I can borrow airsoft stuff to use first and if I really like it then maybe I can make a decision.
