Yum/yin
Why do people always break down during finals? It's like, the emotional issue that was just fine hanging out under the surface for the past year and a half simply can't stand to wait until Tuesday evening.
Anyway.
The kitchen is testing "brunch" on the weekends. It was pretty damned good today. Polenta with onions and crimini mushrooms, an insane sweet-savory congee, a delicious sweet tasting bread that I put peanut butter on... good stuff.
Afterward, I finished all the coloring for the quarter! Woo. Also studied the damned muscles. Goddamnfuckingshitbitchmuscles. Grrr. Uhh... 3 muscles that attach to the coracoid process are pec minor, coracobrachialis, and biceps brachii
Bleh :-P
It's been brought to my attention that I tend to leave out some types of details from my web journal... notably sex and design. Look how nice those two look together. They make a good couple.
So I should tell you, I got a little bit of web work done, updating buzz|dot|net. I'll be adding some extra functionality sometime after Science Hell this week.
On the drawing board is a redesign of Light Perspectives in the next month, and some DevilBear work.
And there's no sex in Humboldt County, if you're a gay man that is.
I had a fantastic shower today. I played some dance music Josh C. gave me, burned incense, and took my sweet time. When I got back to my room, I knew I would have to be soliciting people for sessions, so I decided to dress fun and bright... Desmond's duckie pants, and my bear pride t-shirt. Woo.
Of course, the next 14 people I talked to weren't interested in sessions. Hey when was the last time you tried finding an impromptu table angel on a sunny Sunday afternoon in January? A group of three said in unison, "Thanks, but we're going to the beach." Well then. Have fun.
So this means I got one out of the three required sessions done. Between being sick, having two tests in the next two days, and having CPR on Saturday... I'm over it already. I'll make the other two up.
It was ok, I spent the afternoon processing anyway. Personal stuff.
Dinner was great... lasagna, squash croquettes, some kind of amazing green sauce (it was spinach based, had the color of guacamole or pale pesto, and had a taste all its own), marinara, and suchlike.
Afterward, I finally found a willing victim and did a joint mobilization session. Eh, not much good on its own, but good to go through them all. Of course, I'm finding more value in the stuff I learned at the AOBTA convention (micro-rotations, Cliff's universal joint technique) than this class... joint mobilizations seem more like an assessment tool to me than anything else. Guess I'll bring that up tomorrow morning.
Last night I had a great time picking flower essences. Usually I just do 'em at my desk, whatever. Hell, last time I did them one morning in a rush because I knew I needed knew ones for the Polarity session I was getting.
Anyway, last night I lit candles (eight), put on music (Enigma1), and really got into it. Nurtures the Ku (the Hawaiian, not the Egyptian one) :-)
It was nice to set intentions in a more intentional space. Tonight it will be nice to simply go to bed ;-)
Wish me luck on my test!
