Yoga, SOP, Good Eating, Crack, Read, Cube

I hadn't done yoga for a while because of the back, but I decided that it was time to do it again, and man, did it feel good! I was a little tight (not having done it for about two weeks now), but I felt great for the rest of the day.

•••••

Spent a large amount of time working on the statement of purpose. At the same time I chatted with Tristan via gmail chat. Then he called me. So I really didn't get all that much done on the SOP. But enough. Enough.

•••••

Ate incredibly healthy today, with no processed foods at all. Nothing that came in a box (except for the pasta). Ate a lot of fruit, some veggies with the pasta, apple juice, yogurt, a lot of tea. Yum yum. I felt light on my feet and ready to get into a fight. Something like that.

•••••

The back cracked a bit!

It was in a good way, not a paralyzing back crack.

I was doing a one-armed pushup to because they asked if I could do one, and the PHYSICS of the pushup must have disbursed the energy throughout my body in such a way that resembled a chiropractic move.

FA! FA! (you know what that means).

•••••

Read some at work. I had not been reading due to Rubik's Cube. But I read tonight. It was good, clean fun.

Abby, maybe you should buy your son a bigger cube. It is addicting! It is! Check this out:

Watch some of the videos, too. AMAZING!

Yoga is much more difficult than it looks. I took a class several years ago and now I have a video from that guy in Hawaii (can't remember his name). Wipes me out every time.

I'm sure Chaco would love the 4 cube. Maybe even a 5-er. the 7x7x7 would probably push him completely over the edge.

What is SOP?

What is FA FA?

What are these things?

Does you back feel better now that it cracked?

What are you reading?

On the flight I read a book called "The Runner's Guide to the Meaning of Life." I didn't like it. It didn't have any stories of struggle and success. It's just a book about a runner's thought's about running. I wouldn't recommend it.

Started reading Dean's 50/50 book. It's interesting so far.
