Daily Update

I was like an Arctic Snow Cat last night. Leaping and hopping from hiding place to hiding place. There was no actual snow on the ground, but it was sure cold enough to be. The coldness had confused my senses. There were alot of other little woodland creature out and about too. I felt bad for them all cause they were feeble and weak. Unlike me. I was in Australia though. Running around the Aboriginal Hilltops like Mic Dundee once had. My energy levels were drained from when before I started. I hadn't eaten any thing except my morning donut and afternoon Jamba Juice. But that was no hindrance, I still completed a handful of miles, better than any of the other muskrats there at the time. I did realize though how much of a drain taking 2 months off had become. So now I have to fix it!

(Speaking of Jamba Juice, did I tell you yesterday that the dude at the counter who was helping me was a little to nice. and in stead of a 16 oz. drink he personally made me a 24 oz drink. If I see him there again, I might not be able to go back there in fear of a dude trying to flirt with me more!)

In celebration of the Chinese New year, I went to Hop Woo. Ohhhh that place is so great! As I was weighting in line to order Cheryl of all people came in to order too! Wow, what a coincidence. So we got something, and then went back to her place to watch some show; I think it was called 'Confusion', or 'Annoyance', or was it called 'Lost'... ya, i think that was it, it was 'Lost'. Ya, thats what we watched. It was only OK cause the bald guy kept killing people.

So after TV time, I went home and Mike was watching Man Vs. Wild. I couldn't help it, but to help him watch it with him and reminisce about Boy Scouts and camping. They don't teach you about carving out a Camel to make a shelter. or about drinking liquid poo. Or about eating maggots. It might be useful one day I tell you.

While listening to Man vs Wild, I decided to paint a little bit. I've promised myself I would, in order to keep it going. If I fall into break mode, or drag it on, I might not meet my third deadline for this project. I have so many other projects to do after this one. So this time I constructed the sidewalks in the foreground. They were a warm rendition of a salty sandstone quarried from the Italian Tuscan Hilltop towns. The sunlight hitting each stone hints to you that its later in the evening, giving you an emotional hug. The Stone path looks welcoming, but I'll still have to add highlights later.

I'm listening to Rage Against the Machine right now.

Lunch was sponsored by Nature's Way Cafe. It was super healthy. A little to much so in fact. Lunch was hosted by C & K, the ucla girls. It was a place. I knew of it, but I'd never gone as far as to venture in there. But it was OK. I felt out of place by not wearing Tie-Dye in there, or being Asian.
