Real Life Intertudes

Ok, so now I cannot blame laziness for my lack of productivity. I have been busy enjoying a life lived, as opposed to a life observed. The past few weeks have been a flurry of activity, enjoying what life has to offer, great food, enjoyable experiences and the company of friends. Things we should all enjoy. I know there will be a time in a few months when I will be bemoaning the lack of plans or get togethers, but not today. I have been to dinners, saying goodbye to friends moving on to another stage of their life, and to barbeques, celebrating companionship, friendship and general good times. Tonight, I shall enjoy music and images from my youth as I indulge in a performance of Looney Tunes music with some fellow music and cartoon aficionados. I may be technically an adult, but some things are always enjoyable.

And while all of these activities and socializing have been great fun, and there is more on the way, it has left me with two big problems. One, with all the great food, I have been doing terrible in my overall plan to eat well. I know after next week, it will be easier to eat well, but getting there will require me to navigate a minefield of delectable delights. Oh the horror! I know that sounds so foolish, but I do want to remain at least the somewhat thinner version of me I have created over the past year. Perhaps it is time to look into, gasp, exercise! Oh no! I have a goal to reach, and while these events are obstructions to that goal, I will not let them divert me from it.

The other problem created is the lack of time. With working all day and then spending many nights out and about, I find very little time to either read, a great passion, or write, which I find essential. As the saying goes, you can't win if you don't wrassle. I have been struggling to find time to do everything. Unfortunately, so many things keep getting pushed off. I found a small window of time to write this, and hopefully this will help get me back on track. I have a few great ideas to explore, and I do not want to lose them into the ether of my mind. I have lost far too many things there. I wonder if I will ever find them one day. Regardless, I have carved out some time in the near future to throw a few ideas out and see what sticks. Stay tuned.
