I played kickball with a bunch of elementary school kids (and a preschooler) this afternoon. I kicked ass!



Funny, I hadn't done anything much physical in months, and I could feel it in my body: a weakness, a feeling of total atrophy. Then I danced my ass off last Friday (at a wedding) and Sunday (80s-goth night), and tho my calves hurt for 2 days afterward, it felt so good! It gave me the energy to climb around the jungle gym and play kickball today, when I would have normally just sat and watched. I didn't play for a long time, mind you, as I was 1 of 3 kickers/runners at first and then the pitcher and sole defense against half-a-dozen kids, but I actually worked up a sweat and breathed heavily. Pretty lame how seldom that happens, but for today, I feel awesome!


I know all that stuff about the natural high of endorphins, but I'm so naturally lazy that I forget.

i work two jobs and do some photo work on the side, my free time is all artwork (or my surrogate girl friend Ms. Playstation) , because it's what i really want to do for money. Fortunatley people have started buying my stuff recently so maybe i'll get to be all bad ass art boy.

It seems so hard to even get an interview these days unless you know someone, which makes temp agencies that much more attractive. I think companies like to use temps to test people out, that way if they don't like them they can just replace them. It sounds bad, but I think in the end it usually works out best for both parties.
