I started a yoga class and circuit training.
Yoga stretches my limbs funny. I feel all floppy after. Can’t work out at the gym for fear of my limbs detaching. I’m guessing that’s the norm.

The gym is good. Just 3 workouts into it and my strength is building. I feel more “in my body” which is nice. I want bigger shoulders. We’ll see what happens.

Professional Humor

Here is a good sign, XKCD just ran this comic, which, in 4 years will officially be considered “professional humor” to me.

Alt text: “I calculate that the electrons in radiation therapy hit you at 99.8% of the speed of light, and the beam used in a 90-second gamma ray therapy session could, if fired with less precision, kill a horse (they did not let me test this)”

Going to School for Radiation Therapy Technology

Big news.

I’ll be registering for classes on Monday to start a 4 year journey to become a Radiation Therapy Technologist. First, I’ll be taking several prerequisite classes part-time, then hopefully in March 2013 I’ll be entering a 2 year degree program at CCSF.
