Day 35 and such.
Woke up today and decided to change it up for breakfast. Starting apparently with the time i eat breakfast, which was somewhere around 11.. or perhaps 12ish today (ouch). Still, it was a good thing i got the sleep. After all, i stayed home too long watching a documentary on Ray Johnson, and then set out to Sacramento, forgetting my ice chest full of chicken and pasta and lentils on my floor. I was really glad that i got my workout done before work yesterday, otherwise.. it would really have been a bad scene.
Back to breakfast: this is the first time in all my project that i've eaten a non-hard boiled egg for breakfast, and actually, for any meal. It's not that i was ever unable, i'm just holding the "change-it-up Cards" for when i'm bored. Today for lunch my girlfriend and i roasted some artichokes, and i ate a pile of shrimp. Dinner of course was in the bag.
Jump ropes however, were not in the bag, as i forgot that it's Easter (Zombie Jesus anyone?), and the apartment complex work-out room would probably be closed. It was raining, and pretty damn windy, so i walked around a little to try and find a good place. This is where i found.
All in all, it wasn't that bad. Honestly, you wouldn't think it, but one of the bigger problems was my ears. So cold it was hard to think. But, it wasn't as bad as it has been when i've jumped outside. It was kind of a nice surrounding, it reminded me a little of the youtube video with all those guys using their urban environment as a gym, rather than paying to have access to pull-up bars and the like.
The actual jumps went by pretty fast, and when i finished - thunder. Incredible rolling thunder. The rain picked up and - lightning. It was pretty satisfying to be outside and to hear the great strength of nature.
Alright, it's time to call it a night, and hope i don't hurt it's feelings.

Jumping in nature certainly adds something to it.
ReplyDeleteWe are part of that nature too, even though we've gotten amnesia about that recently.
ReplyDeleteThunder is nature's way of say "jumps good!"
ReplyDeleteHahaha, "Thor is pleased with jumping rope!"
ReplyDeleteand then probably "lets drink!"
