I’m alive!
Barely.
Honestly, I haven’t been this wiped out after a cruise in quite a while, so this week has really been a blur for me. Sleep has been in short supply and high demand, my sentences don’t form properly when talking on the phone, and I’ve had a headache that’s been fairly constant since Monday. My room’s a mess, I haven’t shaved in a week, I’ve run out of clean clothes, and I managed to fall asleep sitting up in a chair the other day while my roommates were playing Halo while screaming at the top of their lungs.
Despite all of that, life is pretty damn good. I’m not gonna lie though; I can’t WAIT for this weekend to recharge and recover.
So what else is new? Quite a bit.
May 28-Day Challenge
I haven’t been on the NF message boards since last week, so I haven’t got a chance to go over how everybody did in the last challenge. Tonight I’ll get around to it. In the meantime, I set up the new part of the boards for the NEXT challenge, which kicks off Monday, May 10th.
Join the 28-day challenge for May here.
Jillian Michaels
Part of the reason I’ve been so exhausted this week is because the day we got back from the cruise, we launched a new cruise here at my job – the Jillian Michaels Ultimate Wellness Cruise, sailing October 21st to 25th, 2010.
A few months back, my boss approached me and said that we had partnered with Jillian to produce a fitness and wellness themed cruise, the first cruise we’ve ever done that isn’t centered around music. When he told me that I was going to be the lead ‘warrior’ for the event, I put down my box of donuts and tub of lard and said “HELL YEAH!”
So, I’ve been working on launching the cruise website for the past few months, and this week it finally went on sale to Jillian’s premium members. It’s in the pre-sale phase for another few weeks and then it goes on sale to the public on May 25th. Pretty damn cool stuff, so you can expect some fun updates from me about how this is going from now until the cruise.
Congrats to Tyler
Tyler over at 344pounds.com weighed in the other day at 199.8 pounds. Tyler has been dealing with quite a bit lately and managed to still continue his inspirational journey into the 100’s. Tyler, congrats man. You’re a hero to everybody and you’re changing lives.
Keep kicking ass dude!
Guest Posts and Emails
I probably received a dozen emails from NF readers who are interested in writing guest posts for the site. If you’ve emailed me in the past week and a half, tonight and tomorrow I’ll finally get a chance to reply. Thanks for your patience guys…didn’t expect to be still destroyed at this point in the week.
Oh, and I go back out to sea on another cruise next Thursday…won’t nearly be as crazy as the Kid Rock Cruise though, which is nice.
So, how YOU doin?
-Steve
