Anyone up for a challenge?

As swimsuit season draws to a close, we enter the holiday danger zone.  I was pretty avid about working out at home.  This year I hoped to avoid the extra "presents" that I always seem to be left with after Christmas.  However, that idea is in jeopardy for several reasons:

A) Gyms here are horrible.
I went to the three closest ones to my house and they had row, after row of treadmills, but only one set of free weights.  Okay, so maybe they're not horrible.  I'm just spoiled.

B) Gyms here are MEGA expensive!
One gym charged 54 Euro, about 75 dollars, to use the gym three days a week.

C) Gyms here close for siesta, but don't seem to open back up.
Again, I'm just very spoiled.  Thanks 24...

So, in lieu of the circumstances I have chosen the less restrictive (FREE) method of weight training.  A friend recommended the following site:

That's right!  100 push-ups in six weeks.

Now, I need a gym buddy.  That is where you come in.  Surely, someone out there in CyberSpace is up for the challenge.  So, you, whomever you are, let's do this thing!  I'm proposing that we do this together.  We can help keep each other motivated, and help each other progress.  So... How 'bout it?

All the rest of you will be in for a treat, when in six short weeks I will have hulked my rippling pectorals through every shirt I own.  I will literally be forced to display my "100 Push-up Body" for all.  Or, at least so I've heard.

Long awaited new post

Hey devoted followers,

I know you've all been dying to know what I've been doing, so here is a play-by-play:

Twelve hour layover in JFK - Went to Manhattan (thanks Katie and Bryan)

Arrived in Malaga (thought my luggage was lost, but it was just the penultimate to be put on the carousel)
Train ride to Seville for orientation (which I slept through most of)
Arrive back in Malaga, and began a weeklong search for a place:

         Internet sites used: 9
         Web posts looked at: 100's
         People called: 62
         Apartments looked at: 24
         Number of Doner Kepabs consummed: 6
         Hours walking the street calling every "se alquila" number: 56
         Number of apartments found w/ balcony, internet, and great roommates:  1

I think it was all worth it, don't you (even though I spent almost two hours commuting each day to the city, and stayed next to the worlds largest mosquito farm)?  Plus, I am right in the middle of the city.  Ten minutes to either beach, two minutes from the port, main bus stop, or city center, 30 minute walk to my school (when I don't get lost), and best of all two minutes to the daily farmers market!

First week of school.  I teach four math classes, two wood shop classes, and two philosophy classes.  The staff is great!
Figured out living arrangements (thanks Antonio for the manta!  I won't spend another sleepless night freezing)
Two days of waiting in line to get my workers card.  I don't really want to get into it.
And for the other two days:

HEAVEN!!!
