Dear Gus & Magnus,
Usually when I go to events for work, I'm part of the behind-the-scenes crew, but today and tomorrow I'm in Frisco as a participant in a professional development class.
I've been hit with allergies hard this year, which is especially unfortunate right now because we're in the thick of making videos for owners meeting next week and I have a lot of voiceover work to do, but every time I talk, I sound sick. I'm doing all I can to get over it quickly, including not drinking alcohol.
I like testing my self-discipline, I like saving the money I would've spent on alcohol, and I like waking up with a clear head. I have also been hoping that not drinking would result in me losing some weight, but I've been at this for nine days and when I got on the scale at home yesterday, I weighed 198.6, which is the most I've weighed this year other than on March 8 when I clocked in at 199. Perhaps this is just life at 40 years old.
Dad.
