Birthday week is over
Aug. 5th, 2013 03:19 pmIt was a nice week even though my physical energy was back in the tank. I spent a lot of time feeling pissy over it happening. But today, even with a lack of sleep and slightly sore knees from belly dance practice, I feel like I have more in my reserves. The real test will be if I go home tonight and do some additional movement. Because I forget that I walk 1-2 miles each day with my commute and therefore it does not "count."
Still want to make two personal birthday present purchases: 23andme and a book on Egyptian magical texts. I did get my two big gifts aka productivity tools. (Macbook Pro and iPad, and my computer showed its displeasure at its replacement in the house) I also have some more unproductivity tools, in the form of more video games. One is just crack. I am now playing Lego Harry Potter (the first one) even though I have never read the books or seen the movies. For those who do not know, my home is not a rock. I worked in a bookstore when those hit big and I hit saturation post fast. Meaning I had zero interest in reading or seeing the stories. Now, though, I kinda do. Once I get through some of the books I have laying around now.
Yesterday's dance lesson was great. I am working more now on learning to choreograph to different types of music. It takes a while, especially when one does not have much energy for practice save for the hour a week on which I spend money.
Didn't sleep so well last night and finding myself easily distracted. Or getting into rote tasks and losing track of time. I'd get coffee but I think it was the coffee at 5pm yesterday that started the problem in the first place.
Submitted another piece for writerverse over the weekend. So far I can only come up with scenes for my fiction but that is okay. Got complimented on this one too! With two words I conjured up a magical murder mystery.
Finally, yesterday's reveal of the 12th Doctor is making me want to sit down and watch more of the old Who in prep for November. Too many things to do, see, touch, watch, etc. and no one pays me to do most of them.
