laughing in the heat

hey peepz, can i start by saying it is SO HOT outside!! i just love trying to fall asleep with as little fidgeting as possible so as not to risk raising my body temperature enough to make me sweat even more...yech.

anyhow, so i went to the San Jose Improv comedy theatre yesterday night, and despite the heat that plagued comedian and audience alike, i had a blast!! the featured comedian, Tony Dijamco, was awesome; really funny, and seemed to connect well with the audience. And the headliner, Jake Johanneson, also very funny; his performance wasn't as consistently funny as Tony's, as there were some slow parts, but the funny parts were super hilarious--there were a couple times he said something soooo funny--I laughed so hard tears came out of my eyes. I've seen some standup on TV but it is so much better live!! i had no idea. highly recommend seeing a live standup show.

i don't want to spend another 50,000 words talking about BFL for fear that I'll have to rename this entire blog after it, so I'll keep the update short. i haven't missed a workout yet, which is good. it's been tough sticking with the nightly planning, i'd say that was my hardest part of the challenge. some nights i get home from work and i just want to not think about anything, be kind of an automaton for a while. i've been playing way too much Spider Solitaire lately, for that very reason. so bad for my BFL habits though, and of course when i don't take time to plan i either start feeling bad about it, or i end up procrastinating til i should be sleeping, then write out a quick plan, and then feel bad anyway because i won't get to sleep enough, which i promised myself i'd do as part of keeping up with BFL.

pptttthhhbbtt is what I say about it now. sometimes it's important to check in with the motivation factor, make sure i'm still pushing forward, but sometimes it's also necessary to just coast for a little bit, let the brain cells and positivity have a rest. now is one of those resting times i think.
