Three Things Make a Post. Pity I Only Have One.

Started writing a post about The Windup Girl, then was beaten out by the heat.

Tra-la.

Have been spending most of my updating time on Facebook, as it’s faster and easier to update than the blog when all you’ve got are a couple of links and some piecemeal reactions to random life events. Too much work blogging means too little personal blogging, and that is kind of a problem.

Hoping for a day without a heat index of 100+ and humid. May free up the brain pan some.

Need I say  more?

What We Eat

I made the switch to eating like a real person back in Chicago (I lived well in Alaska, too, but fell on hard times in South Africa where I subsisted mainly on peri-peri rice, spinach pies, and Woolworth’s prepared foods), but I’m still sometimes impressed at the amount of shrubbery that goes into the shopping cart each week.

The older (and creakier) I get, the more I pay attention to what I eat. Getting sick four years ago only made it easier to make the correlation between mood and what I was eating.

SOMEDAY

Someday I will write something besides radio spots and social media strategies again.

One for the Road

“Be civil to all; sociable to many; familiar with few; friend to one; enemy to none.”

- Benjamin Franklin

Ok, besides 1, 2 and 5 I’m doing pretty well!

Food. Get Some.

Have been a crazy Mad Men fool lately. Look! Here’s a picture of some excellent food at Boulevard Haus to distract you!

Am looking forward to upcoming vacation mainly because it means I can unplug from social media pursuits for a whole three days and work on some actual fiction. I’ve got Babylon and Iron Maiden languishing out there on Dropbox.What’s the use of a mobile file management system if you never use it?

Also, boxing classes start when I get back from the Left Coast. Yeah, yeah, delay involves a sprained right finger, which involves a bad dog and a leash. Not nearly as exciting as it sounds.

Man, I’m looking forward to this vacation. Just wish it was another three or four days longer.
