Okay, let's talk about this 500 day commitment thing. I thought about it all last night and a little into this morning. I kept on thinking about Brian's and Alexandra's commitments and my first thought was: "Yeah, if I was living in Bali that might work... but given that I have a whole life already … Continue reading Starting Today

500 Days
500 days from tomorrow will be the end of 2011. I know this because I am a part of entheos.me, which is Brian and Alexandra Johnson's new online community. They both posted today about their intentions to keep their fundamentals going for the next 500 days without a miss. For them, the next 500 days … Continue reading 500 Days
Still disoriented
Flew through the night. Tried to sleep on the plane from Portland to Newark and I may have actually succeeded, but I don't remember. I woke up wearing an eye mask, noise-canceling headphones and a neck pillow. Ate the worst breakfast of my life in the Newark airport, (with plastic cutlery no less) then boarded … Continue reading Still disoriented
Oh, how I hate the red-eye
It's 4:30 PM here in Portland, 7:30 PM back in Mansfield. If I wait to post on the plane I may miss my deadline, so I've decided to just post some pics, and do all the narrative tomorrow. Okay! See you on the flippy! It's been faboo. Where's my tissues?
Blogging in a Plane
So before I begin, here's the first question: Am I blogging IN a plane? or ON a plane? or maybe FROM a plane??? I am ON a flight, but IN a plane? Is the altitude making me stupid? Or maybe it's my reading material. I don't know. All I know is that I am sitting … Continue reading Blogging in a Plane
Some Days Are Just Ridiculous
I know where my Resistance Monster lives. Right here in this computer. Yes he does. And every keystroke feeds him, and every stop at Facebook and Gmail and ICal and IPhoto. And every blog post I read feeds him, and every Google search does too. And today I was sitting here looking out the window … Continue reading Some Days Are Just Ridiculous
The Benefits of Streaking
So if we define "streaking" as a daily practice of tending to a thing that keeps us aligned with our dharma, or our core values, or our life mission, it stands to reason that the doing of that thing is going to promote calmness in us. Because when we are not in alignment, there is … Continue reading The Benefits of Streaking
Picking Your Streak Thing
Another way of picking your "streak thing" is to think back to a time when you were doing something regularly and feeling great about it, and yourself. You were living in sync with yourself and your highest values, but for some reason you stopped doing it. You're always saying that you need to start doing … Continue reading Picking Your Streak Thing
Asheville
Just got back from a trip to Asheville, NC and have been doing laundry and putting the house to rights all day. In about an hour I will be heading out to see the documentary Split Estate. Why do I do this to myself??? I predict it will suck me into the sadness and despair … Continue reading Asheville
Disclaimer: No Inspiration Here.
I miss me when I'm not here. For the past few days I've been checking in, hoping against hope that someone might have hacked in and ghost-written me a post. Something witty and heartfelt, maybe. Or uplifting and inspiring. Even something wicked and bitchy. But no. Every time I check, it's the same: "Yosemite Boots." … Continue reading Disclaimer: No Inspiration Here.
