In the sky...

Is it superman? no.  Is it a plane?  no.  Its tweeting so it must be a bird.  Nope it just bill joining twitter.  Yep I joined twitter (@billysixtoes) today.  And why did I join?  Amazon was offering a free $5 streaming video credit if you started following them. I'm cheap as Josh says.  I guess I need to learn about hashtags now...

A walk to forget...

I walked, it wasn't vigorous, but it was with my wife and baby, and that made it nice.  The humidity didn't make it nice, but it was bearable.  I didn't write, but there is still a few hours left in today.  Maybe I'll just have to go ahead and do that...

still don't know about the race horse thing...

Return...

The summer hasn't been kind to me, but I feel the energy returning despite the horrid heat.  I think its time to return to my new years resolution of setting monthly resolutions. I wanna write and I wanna dance.  Wait that isn't right.  I want to write and I want to scuba dive.  Nope, not quite.  I want to write and be more active.

So there are three or four more days left in this month so I'm going to say my goal for this month is to mow the lawn.

Woo hoo, I accomplished my goal!!!

Oh okay that feels good.  I'm already off to a great start. So what do I wanna accomplish for September.  I'm torn between setting a single goal and setting two different goals to try and accomplish.  I tried the running thing while writing back in March and April with poor results.  But part of that was that I got sick both months.  So maybe I should start off small on both fronts since I haven't done either.

How about I walk vigorously for three to four times a week, and get back into writing by spewing out 500 words a day....should be somewhat easy to accomplish and not to draining.  I might also try to cut down on the number of times I use periods consecutively in any given post.  I've only done it once in this one, but I've been known to abuse them in the past on here and on facebook.  The period police might come searching for me soon.  Oh no!....

on an unrelated note, why do people say they have to pee like a race horse?  Do race horses pee more than regular horses?

Parei-what....

I said Pareidolia.

What's that, you might ask.  Well let me tell you.

pareidolia (ˌpæraɪˈdəʊlɪə)
 -n
  the imagined perception of a pattern or meaning where it does not actually exist, as in considering the moon to have human features (def courtesy of dictionary.com)

I just learned the word today when I saw someone posting pics of peoples burnt toast.  The burnt toast supposedly has the image of Christ in it and others had Mary. 

And then the thought hit me, if God has chosen toasted bread to reveal his son to the world, should I slow down while eating breakfast just in case he has some special message for me. Then I remembered that I don't eat toast for breakfast.  I do yogurt on the weekdays and on the weekends I tend to eat eggs scrambled by my wife which she then places on tortillas.  Adding a little salsa and cheese and they are great.  Sometimes I even get some sausage on them. 

Will I miss out on a word from God cause I'm eating my breakfast with south of the border flatbread rather than good ol' American burnt bread?  Should I start a ministry where we send loaves of bread along with toasters to people all over the world so they can have God reveal Jesus, or Mary, to them via scorched bread?

Maybe I'll have to invent a solar powered toaster for people in countries that don't have access to electricity.  Mmmm, solar powered toast!   I'll have to give this some thought...

'Nother blegh...

Life feels cluttered right now.  Cluttered with decisions, busy-ness, stress and concerns.  Part of the problem with that for the last month all of that was put on hold while we traveled.  Now I'm back to the grind and the things which were on hold are now back in full view. 

I've been dealing with some physical issues and have to wait til I see the doctor on the 16th to find out if I should be worried about it or not. 

I need to start looking for another source of income (read: second job) so we can stay afloat for a year or so until we can get another kid in the daycare.

I have some things piling up at work and have to wait some time to get them done because it seems like the people I need to speak to are out of town at the moment. 

And its freaking hot outside. 

All these things combined are crushing my inspiration.  I want to write again.  I want to finish the story I'm currently working on.  I want to do a second draft of the story I've already finished. 

I need refreshing.  I want to feel reinvigorated...
