illness

perhaps illness should trigger a recording of life here, in which case the past week or two (or longer?) definitely qualifies... as mentioned in the previous records still rambling on as the primary daily (and recent considerations of others privacy may be the impetus for this new blog) and more, body thoughts that is the place for specific physical body thought (who'da thunk, aye?... well, it seems i am bringing the sarcastic self-mockery along for the moment, whatever the tone, demeanor, feel, style, and/or theme of this blog becomes)... in any case, sick puppy time... meaning me, not the dog... kidney stones, hemmorhoids, possible infection, possible flu bug, possible food poisoning, don't know is they were all related... that's what the past two weeks have been like in this body in this life, so it deserves to be recorded... it seems to have peaked over this weekend...

it did not stop me from playing softball, though it definitely slowed me and distracted me (though i went 3 for 3 sunday, i did not pitch and felt quite blech, blah, and weak)... it did not stop me from shopping for food and cooking up a decadent meaty pizza saturday morning, however i did throw half of it away in case food poisoning was a contributing factor... it did not stop me from jog/walking two nights in a row (wednesday and thursday), however i pushed myself out the door because i was feeling like crap and running used to be the way to cleanse the body and i did feel weak and crappy the second jog/walk... it did stop me from wanting to do anything else with people... and i did wish i had a nurse around, but my roommate was away for the weekend...

so it's been a rather long and lonely illness period that may be peaking as a huge stone passed within the passed hour and the hope for rejuvenation and regeration continues to attempt to bloom... and this is why there is a body blog, for the gorey physical details... and life goes on...

many records

you might start here if you want to browse some of the records of this life, for this blog has yet to find any sort of daily voice or clarity of purpose except to maybe briefly mark potential change moments, bigger than usual events, or something like that... but even if this becomes a daily blog that records a life (we don't want to presume it would be mine just yet, do we?), there are, if you are looking for me, other currently active records... there is body thoughts where i attempt to remember to record my attempts to remember to stay in touch with the physical body i attempt to inhabit... there is this blogging life (more like these blogging lives, but let's not quibble over a few hundred blogs) where i attempt to remember to record my attempts to record the developmental milestones and changes and growth of what i call the written gardens, the words i use to describe all of the writings and recordings i do for any purpose anywhere anytime... and there is (e)thereal which is the current daily blog which may be the bridge to this place as it is the latest attempt to hone and forge and edit and create some sort of blog-sharing that is not dominated by the babbler (as this entry is risking, in case you can't tell) that attempted to move from the previous babbler and dreamer (who, heavily influenced by suess and serf, among others, tends to babble in rhymes) dominated blogs (and you'll find more dating back to the last millenium in the mostly updated blog list as i have been attempting to communicate through the written word ever since i could hold a crayon and learned letters made words {or for even more detailed record of almost every entry i've written, at least since i started this incarnation of the table of contents, you might wander through the table of contents, cleverly named, no doubt}, if you are into history or just can't get enough of your fascination with my madness)... yeah, there are many records, and this one, well, for the record, this one will find it's way when it does...

how about you? :)

and the phone rang

yes, daylight caught up with me and that resume i sent last month finally surfaced on someone's desk and the phong rang requesting an interview... i will call back tomorrow to set up said interview... and very immediately i will gather the necessary equipment and motivation to shave this scraggly beard that has developed over the past month or so, get a hair cut, unpack a suit and tie and get it cleaned and pressed, and get my head right for the responsibility of this opportunity... dang it, and all that :)

i shall report on any progress or changes for our records, so no worries, you shall be informed...

you really ought to get a cushion for those pins and needles (snark :)
