Life Update for the Prying Curious

Wow. So I guess I haven't made a new blogpost in a while, haven't I? Well, lately I seem to be far too busy to create the quality content that you are so fond of reading. Perhaps I should instead create low-quality content with zero relevance....

Here is my life to date divided into interesting sections and sub sections:

Work

1. I have been working a little less over the last few weeks for the following reasons:
a) I no longer have to worry about too much paperwork...my boss has taken that over for me.
b) I have an excellent co-worker who has taken an interest in the work.
c)I have been jealously guarding my weekends, so I can relax and sleep in.
2. We have been going through some small changes, in terms of structure and pricing. A clear picture is starting materialise about the future of the business; I grow a little troubled about it.


Capoeira

1. I am slowly getting back into shape, my flexibility is returning and my upper body strength should be back to normal by the fall or winter.
2. I hurt like hell. Everything aches after class, more, the soles of my feet are often bruised because of the hard tile floor at the studio.
3. I seem to constantly be hurt by people who have to no sense of space. Exhibit 1: I was going through a kicking drill and had my calf muscle booted. It hurts. It was the worst charlie horse I have ever had.
Exhibit 2: I was happily chatting after class and my attention was drawn to a commotion going on beside me. I was then slapped hard across my testicles. Someone was attempting an acrobatic move and failed, leaving me a gasping and heaving wreck on the floor.


Yoga

1. I have started yoga.
2. Yoga is really hard. My body shakes and I sweat, it feels like all my muscles are fighting against each other. As of this writing I am only into my second class, so I realise that this will take some time to get good at, before I can really see the benefits. I figure by at least my third or fourth class.


Clay Studio

1. Clay and ceramics are a test of patience and stillness. A lesson I sorely need.
2. I am starting lessons soon, because I am reaching the end of what I already know about the art.
3. Everyone can expect ashtrays for Christmas.


Music

1. I haven't been playing too much at all.


Misc.

1. I have reno'ed my apartment; cut a big hole in one of my walls to let light through, tearing down projects from other tenants and painting over all the dark colours with bright colours
2. Stopped smoking.
3. Started smoking again.
4. Stopped again. It seems to have worked this time.
