Lately, ever since moving back to Seattle. I am on ultra intensity mode to pack a routine back into my life. Lately, I've been on the fast track to absorb everything that is this city and its surrounding area codes (sorta). Trying different restaurants, activities, street routes, meeting new people.
Then there is the new job. Everyday, after about 6am, I feel as if someone invisible spirit out there is wrenching off the cap on some informational fire-hose and letting it release upon me. Then by around noon, I am swimming in a pool of details and Morse code that I have to un-encrypt by cob (close of business, my new favorite term).
Somewhere in between these rushes, I need to find time to do these routines that use to be apart of my life. Blog? Watch TV? Think critically? Hope? Dream? lol.
However, there are things that I am proud to say I never stop making time for:
Planning a great meal from ingredients found in unexpected places like these summer squash I found in a box at work, marked "PLEASE TAKE".
Taking in the surrounding, even if only for a few minutes and secret to some.
Randomly coming across old favorites in French, in Youtube. And spending the next 30minutes searching for the same clips in different languages to only confirm that I prefer the snooty tounge over any other.
In this schedule of so many people and so many things. I do need to schedule some thinking time, or unthinking time and do some good old meditation.
