5.6.10
And yes, it’s 10:40 PM. If you know me, really know me, you know that it is approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes past my bedtime. I’m on a roll. I’m rolling in a lot of stuff right now. I am a balancing machine. And I’m not just talking about Ball Class.
I have been off “afternoon crack” for wow, almost 2 weeks. And I also recognized that I not only have everything I WANT to do but it should be in my best interest to pay the bills, considering it’s 5.6. So about 2:30 I brewed up half of a cappuccino and here I am. Bills are paid. Letter to the New York Times written, Letter to the Railroad Commission, written. I am thinking my emails are caught up. I guess, I’ll have to double check that in outlook. On my server they are but I did this thing where they go into Outlook. I like Outlook, I don’t like not having my emails on my server too.
I’m stoked, I haven’t felt this relaxed in along time. And here I am updating my life.
I have to say I had an extreme amount of joy when I held my “say no to urban drilling” sign in front of Rex Tillerman today while I was at the bus stop. There was something extremely gratifying about letting a gas and oil CEO know how little ol’ Zoe felt. You know, how big of a mouth I have.
I’m balancing life, very carefully right now. I had my one day off this week, it was kind of a bummer though, it came off on Monday, after I had had Friday off the week before. So come Friday, well, I guess, I do feel like its’ Wednesday. :o)
The more I learn, the more I am becoming a political activist. I always wanted everyone else to take care of it. I’ve just always kind of just watched, and listened. And then, there came a point in my life that I realized that money can bully anybody into doing anything for one or two people and then, well flushing the rest of us down the toi-toi. There just came a point, where I didn’t feel that one voice was enough. And the more I learn the more people around the country are going to learn too. I’m not sure if there’s any whoop ass involved. And I am pretty sure, that the repercussions aren’t going to be as bad as if I would sit back and let big brother crap all over us. I think it is the cat’s meow to get rich. I think, it’s incredibly wrong, MORALLY WRONG to get rich off the expense of other people.
Today I had an awesome run, 30 minute off road straight through.
Yesterday I had the greatest swim in forever. 1750, first one, it was fast too.
Tuesday, track. Ran 100’s barefoot with 200’s recovery. Ran a couple of miles straight through, the w/u and c/d. If I remember correctly I ran a couple of 400’s too. It was tough though.
Monday, went out for a ride, the jaw hurt too bad, so did a big turnaround back to Bikes Plus.
Sunday, loaded up the Burley with 6 bags of paper recyclables and 1 kitchen size garbage pail full of paper and pulled that for 7 miles with the rear brake rubbing.
It’s still a total mystery how and why the wheel gets dislodged. The scewer was a little loose ‘apparently’. Not that loosened it or anything, I basically don’t ever take that tire off. I guess, it’s kinda like my mysterious debonded fork!
Life is good, I’m productive and tomorrow is going to be a bear. I’ll want to stay home and clean the house, something about volunteering at a field day. Ikes. I may try to renegotiate that, you know, bribery… :o)
Did see the surgeon yesterday, my jaw isn’t quite where he wants it yet. So I am supposed to now wear the bands for 10-15 hours per day, which is a lot different than 8-10 hours per day. So that’s kind of a bummer, but now I have moved up on the food chain, to chewing soft stuff, it hurts, but so does running fast the last two miles of a half marathon.
Peace
