January 3



Today we woke up in Strakonice. It was kinda strange because we are usually in Prague by Monday because I (Justin) gotta work. But this time we stayed in Prague for the weekend (for New Years) and then traveled to Strakonice on Sunday afternoon.

When we started to wake up in the morning, my wife asked me, with half open eyes, "What time is it?" It was at this point I decided to play a little trick on my wife. I didn't know what time it was but judging by the soreness in my back, and the light outside I guessed it was 8:30 or 9:00. I was right, but I told Ola,

"It's 7:00."

Her eyes opened wide, "7:00! I'm going back to sleep!" and she closed her eyes with a very determined look to get some serious sleeping done. I started laughing and told her it was 9:00.

I guess you had to be there... it was funny... trust me.

Later that day I went to Prague and Ola stayed in Strakonice. She was mostly relaxing and working on some homework for school. In Prague I had to teach a class and later that night I met up with Dave Uhr. He is an old friend from growing up and it was good to see him. I took him to a bar near my house called Satellite and we had dinner and couple of beers. It was good times. Perhaps later in the week we will get together again.

Random thought: David told me about a mutual friend who made New Year's resolution to do 1 push up every day per day of the year. For example, on Jan. 1 he would do 1 push up, on Jan. 2 he would do 2 push ups all the way to the end of the year until on Dec. 31 he would do 365 push ups. quite a feat if you think about. Some people might be able to do 365 push ups in one day but probably not the day after doing 364 push ups and doing 363 push ups the day before that. In fact, I think his life will be hell come June. There is NO WAY I could do that! Anyway it got me thinking.... is there anything I could do everyday like that? Here is a list of things that I think I could do:

  • 1 minute of videos games a day (Dec. 31 wold be about 6 hours of video games)
  • spend 1 crown a day (believe it or not that would be a total of 66,795 Kc in a year! or about $3,563)
  • Or even better... save 1 Crown a day! :)
  • walking steps
  • bicycle 1 meter a day
  • read 1 word a day
  • charge my iPhone
What could you do?
