eat less, sleep more, exercise more

(in that order)... for lack of full REM cycles is catching up with the aging brain and lack of sleep is catching up with the aging body and over-eating is weighing both down and raising the blood pressure to unhealthy levels (that's a sense-judgment as i don't make time to check the actual blood pressure these days for the same reason the place i live in is a wreck, no time for picking up behind myself, no time for laundry or dishes or cleaning or straightening or anything short of quick showers and minimal washings to have minimal clean clothes and kitchen stuff for minimal basic hygiene and cleanliness and such and that is both physically and psychologically uncomfortable so return to title and repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat until it is actualized again)...

not that i was ever anywhere near an obedient child, but i could really use a good parent right now...

and the little duckling says... are you my mother?...

i wrote something longer on this post last night and a few other things deeper into your blog. the one regarding this one went poof.

you'd rather write than clean house. i get that. it is hard getting into body/home maintenance when thinking about other fun stuff. to get humdrum work done, work needs to be interesting somehow. like really getting into brushing teeth (one example). really thinking teeth. it's all about teeth then. no thinking of softball or writing or sex when brushing teeth. think about brushing teeth when brushing teeth. this doesn't always work for me (my mind wanders) but it seems like it should and actually does sometimes. :)

teeth, i used to do that... i mean, really get into it with a water pick and a sonicare brush (a full 4-5 minutes) and flossing and whitening strips and baking soda and peroxide and tarter control antiseptic mothwash and... yeah, used to... i just brush and rinse a couple of times a day now, just no time to do the intense ritual i used to do... anyway, focus on the task does work for me, but time to do the task is rare... i can find ten minutes or a half hour to babble some words here and there, but laundry and scrubbing a few rooms and so on takes longer than a half hour... and then there's rest... i spend maybe 4 hours a day sleeping because i steal an hour or more from sleep to write when i write... but sitting and writing is resting... using the same time to clean, do laundry, and so on would not be resting and the only way i survive on four hours sleep a night is to sit and rest a bit each day...

makes sense to me :)

Catch up (and know more)

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
