First, a bit of leftover news from Tuesday: My sister gave birth, three weeks early, girl, 7 pounds 4 ounces. Yay!

On to Wednesday: Did a cardio workout, pretty much like Monday’s, but tried just going faster in the 19th minute rather than raising the resistance. Still no Level 10. I could feel myself pushing at my limits, but couldn’t gather the willpower to break through. Note for next time: Use the machine in front of the fan.

Also, my arms still ache from Sunday. If they hurt tomorrow, I’m doing another cardio session instead of upper-body weights.

Comics: Bought $60 worth of comics today! Fortunately, I had $80 worth of store credit, so I didn’t actually have to pay for them! Craig Thompson’s Blankets finally came in, and SPX 2003 shipped early, and Dave Cooper’s Ripple came out in a trade, with toned paper and two-color art. Plenty o’ comics-reading for the next few days!

And [livejournal.com profile] cadhla ran her 1936-era League of Extraordinary Gentlemen game today. Way cool. I won’t go into the plot details, but our character lineup included Tom Swift (and his Electric Rifle!), The Shadow, Dorothy Gale (and Toto too!), Lord Peter Wimsey, Sgt. Preston of the Yukon, Hugo Danner, and Mary Poppins.

Does LOEG have a system, or is she using another system?

Congratulations, Uncle Avram! (Well, you're not my uncle, but you know what I mean.)

There's a couple of Sergeant Preston links out there; most of them lead to sites selling MP3's of the old radio show (which started in 1938 - my timing wasn't that off after all!). A few links refer to the TV program of 1955 to 1958 instead, like this one. Takes a bit of digging to unearth, but he is out there!

Hey, no problem. I just assumed you couldn't find him.
