Happenings

Been in a slump the last several months. Going to try an experiment, that I suspect will fail, of writing down daily or at least weekly blurbs here of things I've been up to, like things I've been learning or doing. Or if nothing else, maybe some food I've been eating or music I've been listening to. In short, a public journal, but without trying to be super detailed -- but maybe some entries will be TMI anyway and I suppose I'd rather go for more details than fewer if the thing is triggering some thoughts. (Some days have been written in a sort of micro-blogging style. Not logging everything, but more than I thought I would... Need to try and keep things past-tense though, only update what I actually did, not what I'm currently doing or planning.) All entries will go in this post in reverse-chronological order (so updates are at the top -- note that "today's" updates may not be complete when you first see them). We'll see how long I keep it up. Made up a few terms for my own book-keeping on micro-goals, they might translate to something like "drank a liter of water" or "read a page in a book" or whatever, sometimes same word for different things.

Yup, so far no more discipline than normal. Finished travel booking. Found a replacement artist potential for event, need to contact them... Foot finally feeling somewhat normal. Slightly tender still, don't want to jump on it, but I probably could and be ok. I'm wondering if overloading on fresh tart cherry extract was the push I needed or if it really just took a month to get over. Did a silly photo meme for idol, she liked and then unliked it, I guess one of the photos offended her. FML. Ordered a giant pizza, watched another movie, and food coma'd. Feeling depressed. Wrote a few lines of a poem I might give to her.

Finished children of dune. Slept. Ruminated over wanting this to be a month of discipline before my Tokyo trip, we'll see. Foot still suffering. Watched a movie. Did a bit of arm exercise.
