A Piece of My Mind 08.06.2010: My mind had other plans apparently...

I had planned to get up this morning and have a sweat busting productive work day. My subconscious had other plans apparently. I had some crazy dreams, involving zombies wrapped in aluminum foil with skin that reminded me of baked white fish, and other dreams like going to Disneyland, being a tester on a new ride, for some reason they took down Star Tours (which I hope never happens btw), and it felt like I was flying like Tinkerbell over lands like Neverland, Alice in Wonderland and the Three Caballeros. It was weird, but it was fun, and the lands look like they were all touched with pixie dust. Then the second part of the ride was totally not finished, I flew through a construction site with lots of workers and one of them walked in front of the ride path, farted, and I had to ride through the fart. Lol!

Anyway, it was pretty awesome and weird and I woke up super late (my alarm was still playing "Take on Me" by Aha since 5AM and I had hardly noticed it). I did wake up just in time to get ready and bike ride over to the gym for a noon yoga class. I am so glad I did. Thanks Kimberly for inviting me! It was a great workout riding there, great workout and meditation during yoga, and a nice relaxing and day dreamy ride home. Plus, the perfect weather in beautiful Camarillo just added to it.

So, I'll look to have a super productive week next week, but I guess my mind wanted to rest this week, as well as open up my creativity again, as I hadn't really dreamed in a long time when I was still in my daily corporate setting.

A Piece of My Mind 07.21.2010: What a Day!!

I just discovered how out of shape I am right now. The blessing and curse is that I never look unhealthy even when I am. Because I didn't like the way that felt, I am on a mission. I am pissed! And it's going to be great. I want to be able to outrun a zombie, and look good doing it.

Aside from that, I learned something new in the kitchen today. Apparently hot glass and cold wet potholder do not mix. The glass bakeware I had sweet potatoes baking in completely cracked and broke in my hands. Carlos is the one who gave me the answer to that mystery.

CJ was completely hot and cold today, speaking of hot and cold, but I don't blame him. He had a hard day and was just frustrated with everything. He kept dropping things, tripping over things, and we missed the ice cream truck twice. Poor thing. He had a couple of meltdowns today, which is not like him at all.

I'm glad today is close to being over. I still have so much to do. But it is really nice having Carlos home. Not that I need him here to get work done, and as much as the background noise of videogames can be distracting and sometimes annoying, depending on the game, I just "like having him around, he's a laugh!" (from Shaun of the Dead). Yeah that's right. Two zombie references in one post.

Good night folks.
