what I've learned, realized or remembered recently:
failures, sometimes many, are usually just part of learning and eventually accomplishing a goal. It is better to use those failures wisely and learn from them, not to dwell and lose enthusiasm b/c of them.
I need attention. it doesn't have to be alot. Sometimes the smallest thing will put a smile on my face for the rest of the day. But I do need it.
I really like driving my car fast around turns. Fast enough to slide a little with the back end. Maybe the whole car, I couldn't really tell. Prolly not much. But it was really cool. AJ holding on and making cute noises made it funner. I'm exited about autocross, even though I don't have a cool car
Music is good b/c it heightens my emotions. Music is bad b/c it heightens my emotions.
If I occupy my mind with things I enjoy and stop thinking about certain other things, I can easily not care about them, and can do without them. (good successful examples - desserts/ice cream/fried foods, sex, music, winning) I don't like desiring things, so try not to.
there are many many people and many many things to do out there, and I need to get off my ass and meet more of them and do more of them, respectively. (Well, doing some of the people maybe too)
I cannot regret the things I've done, only the things I have not.
Its a great feeling knowing I have friends that care about me and sometimes actually know me better than I do.
and other stuff...
tattoo consultation was moved (by artist) to Monday night. (Edit: went monday and tuesday(today) and finally came up with a beautiful drawing and set the date for Sept 2nd, yay!!!)
Carol (gymnastics teacher/coach) thinks I can do and should train for a show in late october.
I need to change my hair. salon is expensive. ech.
Procrastinating on my grant resubmission, but good news is I'm anwering all the critiques and the department chair agreed to write a letter of support, which is super important and could lock in me getting the grant this time. hells yeah.
Seneca is limping a little. I think I'll be taking her to the vet tomorrow. (Edit: she seems to be getting better each day, so if she keeps getting better, no worries, if I notice any worsening, going to the vet on Sat)
Although I should have trained and did a small triathalon this season, I should be doing the muddy buddy with AJ, and not with keithycakes since his ass moved away.
Should have the lite brite table finished by thursday night.
I'm going to call tomorrow to see if I can get into the scottish games this coming weekend. I want to try to throw all that heavy shit. (Edited: Sunday morning I will be at the scottish festival and then sometime during the day I will be in a kilt throwing heavy stuff.... trying to throw heavy stuff).
Went to Rise Sat. Good time, good company. Vinyl next weekend.

now you got me thinking about getting another tattoo.
can't find a decent pic of it on the net, but i have one in a book i've read.--it's a pic of a bear fighting a bull. symbolizing bear vs. bull markets...(it's very fitting)
The lite brite table is awesome.
Hope to see you again soon.
