Time space continuums and just not enough time in the day

We watched the new Star Trek movie last night, and it was so fun! Loved it! Very retro, very good work establishing all of the ties to the old story line. Highly entertaining and enjoyable!

As I was watching it I realized I was also trying to figure out how,  at this point in time, I might be able to miraculously tap into that whole 'time folds and stretches and it's possible (hello, Mr. Spock) to be in more than one place at a time in time'...concept.

Wouldn't that be cool?

Or am I just sucking at the whole life balance pursuit right now?

That may be the case. I'm looking at what needs to happen before this week can end, (500 real work deadlines to meet, none of which can be dropped or heads will roll...ok, my head will roll). Then entertaining Saturday night. Then tons of prep/nesting before Daughter has her surgery next week. I'll be trying to get as much done as possible to ensure she's guaranteed healthy, yummy snacks while she recovers, that the house is clean and comfy, that the freezer is stocked with fast, nutritious meal stuff, that any Thanksgiving prep work is done that can be done. And so on.

I'm whining. I'll stop.

But I really, really could use a mini me right now. An S2. A fiercely organized, very focused ever-energetic slightly smaller (ok a lot smaller) version of moi to pick up the pieces and guarantee nobody is let down or disappointed by me. Ever.

Wouldn't that be cool?

It might have been the moon

 The second Super Moon, also a Harvest Moon, just happened. On the same night I had my mini-meltdown. (see prior post). I've talked with several friends who reported intense emotions, mostly around stuff that needs to be released, resolved. When I think about my angst, and how intense it felt, I realize it was all about that kind of stuff. Old stuff, patterns, thinking, habits. So maybe the moon precipitated things. The bubbling up of angst and anger and icky stuff lasted all that night, but had calmed by yesterday morning. Thank gawd, because that was a morass of darkness, the likes of which I haven't experienced in at least a decade. The rest of the weekend has been pleasant. Uneventful. Full of errands, chores, a really nice walk this morning, yummy food, naps, etc. The one thing about energy that feels constant is that no mood lasts forever. Energy continually shifts and morphs, like the Universe knows too much, too long, of any one sentiment just isn't a good idea for ...

Running Shoes...with Waves

Remember when you had one pair of tennies and they were for everything? Everything. Those days ended for me in high school when I started to run in earnest. In Nike Pegasus, their original running shoe, in white leather with a red swoosh. They were cushiony and durable and made me feel like less of a poser and more like a real runner. After that the style options exploded. I can't remember when Nike came out with their patented Air technology, but I had one of the original pairs..paid a ton of money for them, but it was money well spent. I ran all over the place in those things. All over. The foothills, the valley, sidewalks, parks, around the Academy, wherever...many miles in the originals. Generations of shoes later, I find myself not so happy with the Nike anymore. I've spent thousands of dollars on them in my life, but a few years back began to notice what I deemed to be a general decline in quality, though they've never stopped increasing their prices with ea...

Experiencing system issues

Last night we booked my return flight from Rhode Island. The one I'll be taking once I've situated Daughter in her dorm digs. We used rapid rewards, which tends to take a little longer than other transactions. But still. We were on the phone for almost an hour. An hour! Really? And we had to give them the credit card number 5 times. For one flight and one rental car. I'm just sayin' you guys may be the best bet out there in terms of airline choices, but come on! At least provide fun Hold music if you're going to make people engage for that long. Seriously.
