Going Sane in a Crazy World

My journey through life and the lessons I learn to help me grow spiritually.

Sane Friends

OH that's what it is


I always wondered what the name of the thingy was.

Now I know.

Holy Exercise Batman!


I sent out my announcements today for my 2 new programs for the office. One on posture so people don't end up hunched over later in life. Everyone says they don't want to end up that way, but most people still do nothing about it. Also a slimming your mid line one. There are so many bad weight loss theories out there I figured I would help people do it more healthy. Crap I never had me email box fill up so fast with people having questions and wanting to come in. Like one of my old bosses said you need to keep up with the times and give people what they want.

Hump Day

While naps are refreshing they totally screw my sense of time. I have no idea what day it is today. Everything I did yesterday morning prior to my nap feels like 2 days ago. I'm having to double think everything to make sure I'm on the right day.

Well it's been a while since I've overdrawn my bank account. I didn't take into account my merchant service fee. Oh well. I hate it when that happens. I'm happy it doesn't freak me out like it use to do. It use to be a more frequent occurrence which I'm happy to realize hasn't happened in a while. Last month's slowness is affecting me. I'll have to switch money around to cover everything. I'll still be short the money , but hopefully it will give me enough time to catch up.

What the Hell?

I don't know if I'm feeling my age or what, but after dancing late last night and getting up early for my business meeting this morning I was exhausted today. I mean I could have closed my eyes while driving tired. So I was happy to have free time today to grab an hour nap on my table. It allowed me to finish off the day. Also having planned not to work pizza on Tuesdays so it just wasn't such an exhausting day helped. So when I went out to dance tonight I was pretty fresh. I'm getting very good, but I have no stamina with it. Not that I get physically tired with it I just get mentally tired. Like okay now what move should I do. Since I'm the guy driving it I have to choreograph it out and after a few minutes I'm kind like okay I'm done. Yes, yes I know typical guy I had my fun goodnight. The other problem I'm having is I can keep the beat for about a minute and then I slowly lose it. A salsa song is going to go from 3 to 9 minutes so I'm going to have to work on it. Marquita (you can see her website) my instructor is going to have a workshop on Saturday that I want to attend to pick up more leading moves which are important when you have a real woman in front of you. One of these days I'll have to pick up dancing shoes which I've been told will make a world of difference.

Save Second Base

This was a great comment on a shirt for Breast cancer awareness. Anyway I'm just sharing the news that for this week the blog Boobiethon is raising money for breast cancer awareness. Thanks Mistress M and Cinnkitty.

TMI Tuesday


1. Early bird or night owl? Oh I'm a night owl. Go to bed late and sleep late. I'm very rarely in bed before 11 and I hate to get up before 8. I know the smallest violin. How I spawned a child that likes the crack of dawn is beyond me.

2. If you could only be one, would you rather be smart or good looking? I would say smart. My intelligence just gives me so much enjoyment. I meet enough women that are gorgeous and nothing between the ears and I just couldn't be that way.

3. Do you gossip? No I don't think it is a nice trait. I could very easily, but I work not to.

4. On a scale of 1-10, how adventurous are you? (1 is lowest, 10 is highest) I'm a solid 5. I enjoy trying a lot of things. However as I get older I have a growing fear of injury and that is causing the number to slowly drop.

5. On a scale of 1-10, how good a kisser do you think you are? ( ditto ) I guess an 8. Never really knew until the last few women I have dated have made the comment that I was very good. Who knew?

Bonus (as in optional):What do you consider the biggest turn on out of the following? a) lingerie b) movies c) toys d) role playing e) leather f) none of this does anything for me. I would definitely say role play since it fully engages my mind. When I was younger I would have said lingerie, but that has faded over the years.

Dating Thoughts


One thing I realized last night while I was laying around was how my dating life is better this year than it has been. When I first started dating about a year after I separated from my ex and about 17 years from my last date. I went on a LOT of first dates about 15 in 5-6 months. Hey I don't do anything half assed. I'll put the blame on myself as I got my dating legs back. However the 3 women I've dated this year have gone beyond that. April and CPA girl, I went out on 3-4 dates and L and I went out for about 3 months. So there were no one date wonders in 2007 so far. There have been many women that I have asked out that never got to the table, but that's okay. Grateful to see the progression.

Sleepin' In Sunday

For me sleepin' in means not seeing the morning which was what I did today. My body is so rested I'm almost floppy. So anyway since I now have a stockpile, small that it may be, of books to read I'm trying to finish my Feist book so I can move on. After finishing off a good chunk today I headed over to Michael's to find some odds and ends to have the finishing touches on this year's costume. The MT across the hall invited me to her Halloween party again this year and I need something for the office. I'm on the fence about another Halloween party to go to. So anyway I'll use my Jedi robe from last year and I made a wizard's hat for myself in the Gandalf fashion. I'm bouncing back and forth on a wand or a staff. I think I'm leaning more to the staff so I'll have to stop by the hardware store to pick up some wood.

Eric had left me a message on my phone this morning, but when I called back their phone was turned off and all I could do is leave a message like usual. I'll have to contact my ex tomorrow to remedy this situation. Once a week is not working especially when we are leaving messages for each other.

I'm hoping pizza is busy tonight. One for the money, but two so it goes fast.

Lazy Day


Several days of good sleep has left me very relaxed. It's a nice feeling. After sleeping in this morning I had a late morning networking event. I wasn't expecting much, but if I got anything out of it I would be happy. The woman running it is new to the health and wellness field and her networking skills are light. I nudged when necessary to make it run smoothly, but since I knew it would never get off the ground I didn't put much energy into it. Only 3 other showed up and since they were all selling different supplements for different companies it was like selling ice to Eskimos. I'm happy to say they did not put their sights on me which is usually the case. I knew all their products and I hated the taste or I was allergic to it. It was nice to meet them and I may have gotten a new patient or 2 out of them so that may be good. The lady running it was young and attractive, but not my type which I still find weird to say. When I was young everyone was my type.


German girl is still painting a very nice picture of her friend Nancy. I do trust her judgement, but I don't want to make the drive and like CinnKitty said it will be the guy doing it. I've done it in the past and I don't want to do it in the future. If I keep saying it I have the best chances of it not happening so bear with me.


I was looking forward to going down to the beach for the 34th annual Neptune Festival, but I have to admit I really wasn't in the mood when today came. I did still drive on down, but it was right during the parade which made traffic a complete mess so I turned right around and left.


So I ended up at my Starbucks still with a coupon for free drinks if someone will come with me. I walk in today and the place was pretty empty till after I ordered. I think I might have to hang out outside till someone approaches. Anyway I finally was able to sit down and get my whole marketing campaign for increasing people's posture and slimming the midsection.


The rest of the day was spent at the library and watching some DVD's. I did some research for a costume for Halloween. I think I'll use my Jedi robe from last year and get a staff and goes as a wizard. Pretty simple and works for me.


Left another message for Eric and if no response by tomorrow I'll call my ex Monday.

My Reader

WTF! My beautiful Google Reader is screwing me over. It's slow today in the office and I was just thinking I haven't seen alerts from SWF42 and a few others in many a day. So I hit my link to a few blogs and lo and behold there are plenty of new entries I've been missing out on. Can I trust my reader anymore to keep me updated?
