Swoosh or Lack Thereof

It’s insomnia again, for the second night in a row. Alice starts her fall quarter classes tomorrow morning, so we turned in at a relatively sane hour of 1:45AM. After only three episodes of Heroes, too… responsible adults! We started watching the series Saturday night, after making up from an argument (hi Ryan). We ended up burning through about 12 episodes Saturday and Sunday nights, staying up until around 5AM each time. Not good for our sleeping habits! I’m starting at Wyotech this coming Monday, so I’ve got to get back on the regular path myself. I hope it’ll be worth it.
I neglect this blog mightily, and I think part of the reason is that I’ve forgotten that I’m supposed to just be keeping a personal journal–albeit a public one. I make too much of my posts, try and insert some meaning into each one, whether it be some meaningful idea, a review of something, or just trying to keep a regular record of something I do. I forget that I’m not a critic or reviewer, nor is this the Great American Novel, nor do I really, really need to keep track of every push up I do. I have this problem all the time… everything I do has to be meaningful, has to be progressive… and in the process of overthinking the thing and planning out how significant it’s going to be, I forget to actually do it in the first place. Old cliches are sometimes best… just do it!
