robo buzz flashback

2006-06-27 / 2:14 a.m.
my mind is drawing a complete blank. i had all these antecdotes to include with this entry, but i believe i'm having some sort of robo-buzz flashback. perhaps it's because it's 2:15 in the morning.

i'm still not done with the wally lamb book, but i finally got around to seeing the movie "the world according to garp". i liked the book better, of course--but i found it uber precious to see robin williams in a movie where he was young and endearing, rather than old and annoying. ah, it's sad to see his mork days are over. and i LOVED john lithgow as "roberta muldoon". oops, for those of you who haven't even read the book yet: i hope i didn't fuck it up for y'all. but please read the book first before you see the movie if you haven't done either.

tonight i walked my fastest mile--16:23. when i started my quasi fitness program in january it took me 20 minutes to walk a mile. that is the ONLY thing i'll miss about working overnights. working out feels SO good, and i think it's kind of funny that i could ever love exercise like i do. perhaps it's because i do it because i enjoy how i feel, and not for any fitness goal or weight loss. i wish all parts of life were like that, enjoyable because the pressure to perform within a certain context doesn't exist. my arms are ripped. i still have that little mudflap under the bicep, but i find it endearing rather than annoying. it feels so boss to be in tune with my body and recognize all of the good things it does for me instead of basing my happiness on what size pants i can fit my ass into.

there's a ween show in madison, WI--and me + the vinster would love to go. we aren't sure if we can swing it financially, and if we can the tickets are more than likely going to be sold out.did i mention the venue is non smoking? this means that i could actually attend a show, but it's all up to the rock n' roll side of god to make it happen for us. damn you gener and deaner--come back to btown and do another show.
