CARROT: $3.50

I have to take better care of myself.

A month ago, I said that I would start doing push-ups and sit-ups on a regular basis. And how many have I done so far? Yeah, none.

I couldn't get myself to take the one minute it would take to do 25 push-ups -- mind you, I wasn't even going for "three sets of yadda"... just one friggin' set. I needed a something to use as motivation.

And the answer was the most obvious.

I've been sans Disney Annual Pass since June 4th. And although that doesn't mean that I haven't been there since, having a pass of my own gives me more freedom to some much-needed distraction.

The pass now costs $375.00 (without tax). So, for every 25 push-ups I do, I'll earn a dollar towards that pass (I'm not going to count tax). And for every 25 sit-ups I do, I'll earn fifty cents. And sure, I'll add running to the qualifiers: a dollar per mile, but only fifty cents per mile if I don't do any stretching before or after.

This is something that I've gotta do for myself. I now have a goal.

-----
Tonight, I did 50 push-ups ($2.00) and 75 sit-ups ($1.50) = $3.50

Goal: $375.00
So far: $3.50
To go: $371.50

too much math? that's unpossible.
