TGIF?

After school I went to give blood, and it was fantastic. My iron was great, not merely borderline good enough to give (or too low to give as the numbers frequently say) but in the middle. Then my blood came gushing out instead of the normal you almost didn't make it in time. Life was good.

Then I went to my scheduled Genius Bar appointment at the Apple store. I was forewarned that the Genius Bar did not serve drinks and perhaps there weren't necessarily geniuses present. This proved true on both accounts. First the store's ac was not working. Many of the workers literally had sweat running down their faces. This made me feel sorry for them. The "genius" helping me was friendly, but not real prompt or helpful. Finally, after almost two hours, my computer was taken to another genius then the manager. I was given a new computer and sent home. Now I am "back to the drawing board" as I once again need to try to migrate my files to my new computer.

After sitting in the warm Apple store for two hours after giving blood, I decided perhaps I should hydrate and get something to eat first. The good news is my trusty iBook G4 still works. After all, who really needs to see the letters on the keys? My hope is my computers will have a wonderful union, and I will be using my new computer tomorrow or later this evening.

Sankalpa Day 5

Today I went back to the interweb to find out what I could post about that would relate to sankalpa .  "...Sankalpa has the potential to release tremendous power by clearly defining and focusing on a chosen goal."  My chosen goal since May has truly been on being physically active.  Since it's cold and miserable out, I've been being active inside instead of outside.  December 6th (or something like that) was the last time I ventured outside for physical activity.  I, however, have still been going to they gym and focusing on being physically fit (or at least burning enough calories to eat more food).  Yesterday I received an early morning text from a friend in God's Country .  President Obama was talking about "The President's Challenge" .  Today (I tried yesterday and decided to put it off until today... forget out it... let it happen... put it aside... clear my mind of it... all probably sankalpa) I formed a group.  The...

What if... The Delivery

  Molly was excited to get a package from her friend who lives in Alaska.  When she opened the box, she was confused.  Although the shirt was actually soft and of good quality, she was upset by the guns in the flag.  When she googled Holster's, it was exactly what she thought... pro-gun.  She didn't know how to handle the situation, so she sent a picture stating she was confused. Her friend had obviously lost her mind.  During the conversation, she kept proclaiming that she hadn't sent a t-shirt.  When Molly explained it was her writing on the box, things became weird.  The friend was in a state of denial.  Molly even sent a text with a picture of the writing on the box. Molly's friend was adamant that she sent homemade condiments.  She wouldn't give up on her story even though it was clear Molly is in possession of an NRA type t-shirt.  After much deliberation, the two friends realized what had happened.  The original box, wit...

Demolition

The Lazy Song by Bruno Mars "Today I don't feel like doing anything I just wanna lay in my bed Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone 'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything." I am going to school with a thank you/apology note in hand. Yesterday I was "caught red handed" making illegal copies on the staff copier. It's not like it's the first time I've done it. It's not like everyone doesn't do it. It's not like I feel sorry about making the copies The problem is that I was caught, completely "busted". I watched the copy police (lovely lady) walk into make a copy and knew she would see the copies I was making and be upset to quite upset. "Shit," I uttered as I was talking to the secretaries watching her walk into the room. According to the copy police I am banned from the staff copier. Maybe I'll try to follow the rules for the next week or two. An ea...
