Fiery Spasms of Joy

I've started on two other ... endeavors.

1 - Instead of dancing I've decided to spend my kinetic time working through a book I've had for years. It's about Pilates and the cover of the book has a red background. Anyway, I liked it because I don't like working with "stuff" I have to buy or don't own. The second half of the book has all floor work. I gave up on it years ago. Figured I'd try again. It feels like guitar practice. I suck mightily, but I get a little better each day.

2 - I bought more books. I heard my co-workers talking about Next by Michael Crichton and got seriously intrigued. Oh, and Kim Harrison had a new book out. I bought them both. Problem? I already have 4 books on back log, and a couple others that are in my house that I haven't read.
Once upon a time, I had a rule that there was no book on my shelf that I had not finished reading. (Current, and "to do" books stayed on my desk or some such.) Well, I have at least... under 10 books that I have, and have not read, and some went to the bookshelf.
I'm going to read the books I've got. The books I've bought... and I have books on my wish list that I want to read next (The Road by McCormick(?) and something new by Stephen King).
Holy snapdragon, I've entered my book reading phase again.

All of that pretty much pushes gaming to the outer reaches of my evening time slot. I don't mind. I was looking for something different to get into.

Sushi was delicious today. I have had my spicy taste centers SPOILED. I can't make anything suitably spicy at home anymore. Every day that is not Wednesday I morn my inability to get foods spicy enough. I need to find out what that woman is using. I need a super sized bottle of it.

...that's what I forgot...
A co-worker said yesterday, "Guitar has a learning curve like an elbow. For a while you seem like you're not going anywhere and once you've got the principles down you shoot straight up." That's the gist anyway.
I liked that.
