Observations

I just filled up my ice cube tray with (brita) filtered water.

I got frustrated today, because I wasn't practicing loving kindness towards myself.

That reminded me of an Alanis Morrisette song.  You know the one.

I just poured a shot of Makers Mark, with 2 ice cubes (from a bag, not the ice cube tray).

I finally got a new journal.

It's not the one I wanted, but I don't care.  It's a close second.

I've been listening to Florence and the Machine Lately.

I'm going to the Lauryn Hill concert in a couple weeks.  

I doubt she (Lauryn) is worth the money.

You only live once.

I've been fighting off a winter funk.

I can feel it trying to creep up on me.  What a creep.  

I was supposed to run a half marathon in Saint Paul on January 29.

That's crazy. 

I wrote to the race director and am getting my registration changed to the 10k.

I lost weight over the winter holiday.

I might be the only person I know who can say that.

I wish it was summer and I was fishing.

Today is January 6.  There are several months till summer.  

I need to start being more creative.

This means taking more photos.

Writing more music.

Writing more in general.

And perhaps doing some visual art.

I suck at visual art.

That's beside the point.

I want to cut my hair short.

I'm trying to wait until it's long enough to donate.

I don't like waiting.

I got a pair of dangling earrings for xmas.

I've been wearing them with a merino wool beanie.  

It works.

I want to go to more potlucks.

There's a potluck tonight.

I'm skipping it.

I might go to the pub instead.

I feel like I should write.

The kind of writing that is too close to my heart to share.

In trying to balance heart and mind, I've forgotten body and soul.
