O.K. so another Sisyphusian (my own word) attempt to roll the boulder to the top of the hill.
The boulder contains:
- much lard
- bad eating habits
- laziness
- depression
- arrogance
- atrophying physical capabilities
- atrophying mental capabilities
How I will defeat Zeus:
- strict adherence to an LFLesque type diet
- another attempt at P90 or modified excersize program
- 8 hours on bike or trainer per week
- complete one book of any type per week
- plan a bike/golf getaway
- plan a family vacation
- learn to play guitar
- learn to maintain bike even better
- go minimilist and neat and quiet
- spend more quality time with kids
- spend more quality time with wife
- keep in mind the steps ahead that lead to the top
Of course you're welcome to projectile vomit at this. In fact, I encourage it!
I have the same boulder contents. I'll attempt P90 with you! I am attempting to go minimalist and be neat and quiet. Wanna be in our book club? Wanna go to Europe with us?
ReplyDeleteAnd no projectile vomit allowed!!! See Rule #3!
ReplyDeleteI'm backlogged with books, but once I get through my pile, I'll consider your book club.
ReplyDeleteI will probably only go to Europe with my wife, or to visit my kids if they move there. When I go, I want to go slowly, and take it in from a local's POV. Go and stay and wander for a month; but that's when Marie retires.
I like # 8. Rae (the St. Brendan's spelling) and I are attempted to purge our closets. I think too much stuff drains us of energy. We spend too much time getting it, maintaining it, moving it and stepping over it.
ReplyDelete"projectile vomit" was my little allusion to a cathartic expulsion
ReplyDeletethink long and hard about the act physically, and then apply it quickly psychic-ly. your head flies back and your eyes get wide; what do they see when your head comes to rest?
That is quite the visual and quite an analogy! Thank you for the shift in perspective!
