something I ponder
why is antarctica so cold if it’s in the south?
my reaction: Antarctica is the coldest place on earth. It’s a sheet of ice. It’s basically inhabitable yet it’s right next to South America. It’s a few thousand miles from Chile. It’s below South America and Africa. Can someone please explain? I don’t feel like asking Google.
slowing
I decided to do a 24 hour fast last week. I wanted to challenge myself. I heard people on YouTube say it’s good. YouTubers know everything right? Four hours into my fast I smoked a little herb to put me to bed. It’s not the best idea to do something that will give you the munchies when your trying to fast. I then looked up recipes on how to make a homemade spaghetti sauce. These are the two worst things you can do when fasting. They both elicit a response to wanting to eat. I drank so much water that I peed every 30 minutes. They should call it a “slow” not a fast because I felt so slow. People on YouTube said they felt focused. I had a headache all day. Fasting is supposed to help you regenerate cells. I regenerated my feelings of hunger.
screen ave
Back in the day a lot of parents would say we need to get these kids off the streets. Meaning they didn’t want their kids to be involved in gang activity. They didn’t want their kids partying, selling drugs, and stealing cars. I don’t necessarily have that problem. My son is only 7 but my main goal is get my kid off the screen. I think every parent’s mantra is getting the kids off the screens now. That’s our equivalent to getting kids off the streets. It’s just as bad. A kid who is in the streets at least learns they way of the world even though it may be dangerous. Screen time will lead to depression, mental health, and a sedentary lifestyle. We need to get these kids back in the streets selling drugs and pimping hoes.
everyday im shuffling
I work at a very small company. We have 3 employees including me. I have 2 co workers. One of my coworkers is the office manager. I’m not sure how you can be an office manager of place with 3 employees. What do you have to manage for 40 hours a week? I often hear her shuffling paper in her office. She shuffles paper every 30 minutes just to sound busy. I don’t know why paper is being shuffled? Everything is done electronically. At least do what I do and making typing noises with your computer to sound busy. I just type really loud so it appears that I’m doing work. I strike the keyboard with fierce. I’m the loudest typer ever. It makes me look very busy. I look like the CEO I type so much.
iwish
I went to an Irish Grocery store. I didn’t know Irish grocery stores existed outside of Ireland. I’ll be truthful I thought an Irish grocery store was just going to be a potato store. I thought the whole store was going to be full of potatoes. It wasn’t at all. I didn’t see one potato. I saw a lot of Irish candy. There was so much Irish chocolate. The store had four refrigerators of frozen food. They weren’t commercial freezers. They were freezers you would have in your house. I loved the owner of the store. He had an Irish accent. I just want to go back to hear him talk. I love his accent. It’s like poetry. It’s like he talks in limericks. I’m going to go there weekly just to hear him talk.
get the belt
I’m in Tae Kwon Do class at the YMCA with my son. I wanted him to learn a self defense because he was getting bullied by a kid younger than him at school. Actually, I want to learn too. I’m in class with 10 other 2nd graders. I can beat every kid up in that class. My instructor looks like Nate Bargatze. He is a middle aged dude that has a beer belly. I love that my sensie is just a regular guy that’s out of shape. He is a black belt and he can beat me up even though he looks like an accountant. I’m one of the best behaved students in class. I haven’t gotten yelled at once. My goal is to get a white belt. Yes, I set my goals low so I can achieve them. I may not beat up an adult but I sure can kick a kid’s @ss.
doogie howser moment
In summary, I think the fast is going to my head. My mind is starting to think about things that don’t affect me like the temperature of Antarctica. We need to get these kids off the screens and to visit Antartica. Pack them full of Irish food and have them be on their way. I’m glad I’m learning martial arts. I need to learn survival skills if I ever encounter a vicious Penguin. It’s helped me at work too. I strike the keyboard like I’m practicing my jab. In conclusion, let’s all go to Antartica
