I finally managed to get rid of the damned google doodle on the search page! I remembered that I use the Adblock Plus plugin for Chrome, so I right-clicked on the doodle and set Adblock plus to block it...it worked! No more doodles about the world cup. I wish I'd thought of this days ago.

I'm Sick of the Google World Cup Doodles!
Okay, it's official, I'm sick of seeing Google's doodles all being something related to the 2014 World Cup! According to a google search I did, the World Cup final won't be until July 13th, 2014! Does that mean that we're going to be subjected to these World Cup related google doodle splashes until then?! I certainly hope not...It's time to put them to rest and just go back to the normal Google homepage, or at least give something else around the world a chance to be there.
This may be blasphemy in some parts of the world, but I don't even like soccer! And don't even get me started on how the rest of the world insists on calling it, "football".

Feeling Fat and Down!
Last year at this time I was feeling a lot better than I am now. I'd begun walking everyday and had gotten myself up to walking about two miles each day. I managed to lose 20 pounds and feel better than I had in a long time. Unfortunately, when Fall came, so did school and my schedule was so hectic, I stopped walking. Then we had the winter from HELL and I couldn't walk then even if I'd wanted to.
Now here I am a year later. I've gained back all of that 20 pounds and I feel awful again. I just got back from making myself walk around the neighborhood like I used to. I put in a mile. It took me about two to three weeks to work myself up to walking two miles last year, so I'm sure it will take that amount of time again. My schedule isn't really any better now than it was last Fall, so I'll just have to fit in walking whenever I can. I can't take this heaviness and feeling so out of shape. I'm going to blog about my progress here if for no other reason than to give myself a yardstick to measure my progress by. If no one wants to read this, that's fine, this is really just for myself anyway. Maybe though, someone else will read this and feel motivated to do the same and improve themselves and their situation. If so, leave a comment here and let me know how your'e doing too!
