General Life Update - Call it glu if you like.


Current mood: exhausted

It has been quite a span since I last made any comments here. I have had the inspiration from time to time but neglected to act on it for whatever reason. Sometimes I just let the cooler thoughts sit on the burner for too long.

I am finally settled in my new place. I have been here three, maybe four, weeks and it seems to be working out so far... even if a bit on the hot side during the recent sunny-day barrage... which isn't even that hot by typical Californian standards.

I finally started doing some regular, meaning multiple times a week, physical training of sorts. Running has been the main version lately, although I do other things for variation on occasion, and seems to do a lot for my general life optimism. It is a really excellent feeling... and it is attainable by anyone willing to make the time. So worth it. I could even say it has had a bit of a life-changing effect on me. Although I suspect there are many other factors in play on my behalf.

So I realized I am getting a bit old for some of the young person activities I used to enjoy so much. I did some wrestling yesterday and WOW am I paying for it today, and likely tomorrow. I enjoyed it while it was happening, and I did okay at it considering it has been years since I have really done that kind of vigorous physical activity, but think it would be wise to abstain from such activity without having properly trained my body for that kind of abuse beforehand. And I am not even old by general standards... I guess I am just reckless on occasion.

I think I will keep it short today... I actually want to be asleep very soon and I still have to write in my journal. Plus... I am not sure any of this holds the standard entertainment value I generally offer in this forum. Ha... Like that really matters. Am I competing with myself now?

June is only a moment away.
