What I'm thinking, where I've been, where I'm going and other random events

And now for something more boring

It has occurred to me (in the toilet today) that I'd like to put down on hard drive my thoughts and ideas on software delivery and requirements analysis process. * yawn * Every company I've worked for and every project I've been on has faced the same challenges of getting this process right - implying that the end product delivered to users is what they actually want, and it is delivered in a relatively efficient manner.
And being a BA I've generally been at the center of this dilemma. While I've gained some experience in how to do it properly, its really a patchwork of ideas that might make more sense if I try to discuss them in an organised fashion.
Anyway, just wanted to put this on record to remind myself to do this at some stage :)
* yawn *
I'll try to fit in some personal angst when I do write it to give it a bit of drama.
btw can't believe I'm not going to do some boarding in the northern winter this year!

A fitter better me

An eating plan
Glucosamine
Multi-Vitamins
Protein Drinks
and possibly omega oils and creatine.
This is what has happened to my diet since starting on my program with my personal trainer. I'm also now training with her 2x a week rather than just the one, hoping that it will mean I get more consistent results from my gym sessions.
I admit I am enjoying going to the gym at the moment, but it is putting time pressure on me before and after work (lucky my work isn't too strenuous), and I don't know how long I can continue paying for personal training sessions!
And I do feel better and less sluggish/unhealthy, I feel I am getting a little stronger, plus I have put on I think 2kgs since I started it.
Personal training looks like a good profession to be in at the moment..the trainers at the gym don't seem short on clients, and my trainer works solid 7am to 8pm some days! Suckers like me paying good money for someone to tell us how to lift some metal weights :)
