Center for World Spirituality

It rocked.

Possibly the first community I want to invest time in?

All excited an' shit. Which means, "watch this carefully that you do not burn it out suddenly."

The Rain

It's still raining.

And I'm still getting rained on riding my scooter.

There was the "threat of snow" and everyone was atwitter at work. And I don't mean Tweeting.

I highly doubt it'll snow. Not that we haven't had snow here.... I think once about 10 years ago...

It hails. Nice, perfectly round chunks. But snow... nope. And highly unlikely.

But if it does, it's not like I'm going to get off of school (read work).

Tih-erd

Tired.

Just feeling a bit weary. Probably need a vacation but really, I'm not so good at vacations especially with Marty. We don't play well together.

A Rainy Day

Raining all day.

I hate rain.

Had enough on Diego Garcia to last an entire lifetime.

I Am Number Four

Your usual teenage, alien lover, journey type movie fare.

A Day At the Races

Horse racing. Marty took me to the races. It was fun, got to sit up in the restaurant and eat and watch some races. We even bet $5 on a horse. Not big gamblers, us.

It was kind of fun to get into the excitement of the races even though these were horses that only had a few races under their belts. Saddles?

Pleasure In a Cafe

And I don't mean having sex on one of the little tables either...

Just sitting in my cafe, waiting for class, playing around with my battery hogging iPhone, which I had to turn off to preserve battery to get it home so I could make sure the new info I put in would synch. I remember the old days when you lost battery power, you also lost the new information on the phone... but I guess these days if the battery really did run out, it'd be okay.

In any case, listening to some nice old blues, drinking my mocha chai, poking around my netbook and suddenly overcome with a sense of satisfaction. Like Dr. Marc was saying yesterday, an evolved being can derive pleasure from anything.

I often feel like an amoeba but looking out the window at that gorgeous orangey-pink light as the sun begins to set, listening to the some good blues, the very sweet chirping of the canaries around the cafe, tasty mocha chai, suddenly a sense of pleasure, of deep appreciation for the moment, a fabulous relaxed feeling, like after some really good sex on a little table... I joke (partly), but really, a real contentment for my life overall in that small moment.

Not so amoeba-like, I tell you.

Pleasure, Pain and an iPhone

Had a session with Dr. Marc. Was feeling kind of depressed but it turned out to be a rather interesting session about pleasure and pain.

On the pleasure side... our iPhones were here when I got home and that really fucking rocked. So, mostly all good.

Just Another Sunday

It's like the "Just Another Monday" song.... but with Sunday, get it?

Another Coma

Slept all day.

Rootless Depression

Feeling sort of down and depressed but there doesn't seem to be a reason.

I mean, even work was slightly good for once.

I did have lots of junk food today and those crazy stupid extremely painful back and pelvis things going on.

But just... in a funk.

My Back Kills

But not like James Bond.

Where'd My Fucking Day Go?

Work, getting meds, taking out trash, cooking, working out... seems like the day is gone and I have to get up and go to work.

Well, after staying up to order our new Verizon Wireless iPhones at midnight.....

WOOOOOO! That part is at least worth it!

Lurking Panic Attack and a Planetarium

I was just fucking upset this morning.

* Furious with work and moronic co-worker and by the end of the work day, I felt like I was near on a full panic attack.

* Had class so it was a long day and I was very tired by the end.

But I had some excitement peaked around paper project and using tech like planetariums to educate folks around the importance of conservation.

Reminded me of Marty and I's "Republican take on hydrofluorocarbons and global warming" short film. Which is very funny but I'm not going to go into detail here. One day we'll do the project itself. Some day....
