I painted three pictures tonight.  I really ike two of them.  i tried to do something not-completey-abstract in one though and it didn't go well.  The two I like I may take to work and hang-up if they still look good tomorrow.  I'll try to take some pictures.  It's funny that I appreciate my own art. 9:05:18 PM

Though if I had no ears I couldn't have listened to this on the way home... Cheeseburger in paradise By: jimmy buffett 1978 Tried to amend my carnivorous habits Made it nearly seventy days Losin’ weight without speed, eatin’ sunflower seeds Drinkin’ lots of carrot juice and soakin’ up rays But at night I’d had these wonderful dreams Some kind of sensuous treat Not zuchinni, fettucini or bulghar wheat But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat Chorus: Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise) Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise) Not too particular not too precise (paradise) I’m just a cheeseburger in paradise Heard about the old time sailor men They eat the same thing again and again Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead Well it reminds me of the menu at a holiday inn Times have changed for sailors these days When I’m in port I get what I need Not just havanas or bananas or daiquiris But that american creation on which I feed Chorus: Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise) Medium rare with mustard ’be nice (paradise) Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise) I’m just a cheeseburger in paradise I like mine with lettuce and tomato Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer Well good God almighty which way do I steer for my Chorus: Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise) Makin’ the best of every virtue and vice (paradise) Worth every damn bit of sacrifice (paradise) To get a cheeseburger in paradise To be a cheeseburger in paradise I’m just a cheeseburger in paradise I like mine with lettuce and tomato Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer Well good God almighty which way do I steer for my 6:02:50 PM

I don't want to hear.  Please remove my ears.  At least for a few days. I want to be a stronger, more easy-going person.    4:07:49 PM

So, the meditation/reatreat was interesting.  Now, less than a full day later, it almost seems like it didn't happen.  I phased out of a lot of it, maybe.  I'm not sure. I was sleepy, but it was also peaceful and a break from my normal mind-full-of-chatter feelings.  Much more singing and talking than I expected, and less actual meditation.  I did meet some nice people and hope to attend a weekly class soon; there are a few that are convenient for me.  The monk had wonderfully, smiley eyes that just seemed SO happy.  When he smiled at you, you couldn't help but smile back.  I made it to the gym this morning...but oddly still feel exhausted and an uninspired to head to the office.  6:48:47 AM
