Goal Post

Okay, you know what? I need to take fifteen fucking minutes and just breathe for godssake. I am being pulled in too many directions and am going to snap someone's head off. Breathe. B-r-e-a-t-h-e. Breathing on LJ.

So, goals from last week:

Attempting the no-coffee thing again Well that one was sort of a no-choice thing after Friday's meeting with Dr. Khosh. No coffee on Saturday morning sucked.

Exercise at home three times If you count doing some drills and other bellydance stuff with [livejournal.com profile] msmitti, check this one as a yes. Otherwise, I only managed two times.

Make some art Art card made, mailed, and received.

Due to the demands of Campbell Conference stuff, I don't have the physical or mental stamina for new and exciting goals this week, so I think I'm just gonna make one, which I copied 100% from a previous goal of [livejournal.com profile] tama_grey:

Do not lose your shit Do not lose your shit at anyone or anything. Just chill the fuck out. It's okay. You've got this. You've totally, totally got this.

You can totally do this (not losing your shit). You are *already* not losing your shit.

It's because I made it a goal.

Also: EVEN WHEN I'M TIRED.

Good goal! Sometimes, that's the pinnacle of human achievement.

I rec'd a lovely art card from you last week and utterly failed to say thank you, so Thank You! I think [livejournal.com profile] orrin lurvs it more than I do (and that's saying something).

Aw. You're welcome.

XOXO

Instead of coffee I sometimes do 300mg caffeine (synthetic), 500 mg NALT, 3000 mg b12.

It's not the stimulant I miss, though. It's the pleasure of drinking it. The taste and the smell and the memory of how many weekend mornings I've spent alone with my coffee. Same with cigarettes. I couldn't care less about the nicotine (most of the time). I just love the ritual of smoking.

Die on the grass, the stage is LAVA!

I know someone asked this, but can you do, or do you hate chickory coffee?

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2012-07-03 01:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't have chicory, no. =(

There is no substitute for real coffee. I have been a coffee drinker for ...
*doing the math...*

sweet jeebus...FORTY years.

I'm not sure I am able to give it up...boy, I am really feeling your pain on that one.

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2012-07-03 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I've been drinking coffee since I was eight, so...thirty-four years for me.

Yeah. It sucks.
