Science & The Body
150 push ups
5 sets of ab squeezes (30 second intervals)
3 hours of snowboarding (cardio)*
30 minute stretching
*On this day I wore a bandana over my mouth at elevation to reduce my oxygen intake, thus making forcing my muscles to exert more force with a limited air supply.

Give me something to work with please
If a server gives half ass-ed service, why would they expect a whole hearted tip? I tip on merit, so give me your A game or expect a C tip.

I’m still lost in a sea of music, hopefully they never find my body.
I'd do you.

A person would have to be a fucking idiot not to see what a catch you are. If you’re not being actively pursued, I’m not sure there’s justice in the world.
Today remind yourself: I’d do me.
Southern Hospitality
I find the kindness, care and altruistic graciousness that people from the South exemplify to be unmatched. I honestly wish we had more of it through out America.

Up, Up and Away
I remember the first time I dunked a basketball was in eighth grade. My coach benched me earlier that day, giving my start to a less than average player; the act was completely political in its function. Immediately after the game I went home and practiced, jump shot after jump shot, lay up after lay up. With each lay up I elevated higher and higher above the rim, then it happened. I remember the...

This guy has a backpack full of water with a hose running into his shorts so it looks like he is peeing. Yeah, my humor is very sophisticated.
Give it away!

Here’s my wish for you today: I hope you feel so jazzed you can’t help but smile. I hope positivity flows from you and fun opportunities fall in your lap. I hope you have a great skin day and an awesome exchange with an cute person. To have all these things; to get them and keep them, you have to give them. Share your well wishes with the world and your energy will be matched!

How annoying is it when someone else’s issues get stuck in your mind? I’ll save you the suspense and tell you: It’s super fucking annoying. You can’t control the actions or inactions of anyone but yourself, yet, when somebody gets in your head, you spend all your time trying to parse their sentences and analyze their motives. It’s an exercise in futility. Whatever this mysterious...

Annoying and Horribles Ads
smellkid:
The two most annoying and horrible ads on TV right now are for Subway and Bud Light.
The Bud Light Drinkability campaign is incredibly lame. I can’t get past the first utterance in each commercial. A guy take a sip of Bud Light, looks down in appreciation at his beer and says to himself as he savors the taste, “Man, that’s good.” No one would do that. Ever. No one would ever take a...

You're better with age.
playnice:
You’ll always be you, no matter what age you are. You’ll look different and you’ll behave differently but you’ll still be unmistakably, wonderfully you. You can embrace each birthday each day (each second!) as progress in your personal evolution. You’re wiser than before.
Today remind yourself: I’m better with age.

Police Intervention
Not too long ago I got pulled over with a friend which is never fun, except this time it was different. In the back of my mind I was thinking we were incredibly fucked,because we had just finished a Bob Marley size blunt. The cop asked if we were from Boulder which led me to think we were super fucked, but it proved to be our safety net because the officer ended up letting us ride off in our...

You've got an amazingly powerful smile.
playnice:
When strangers tell me to smile, I generally tell them to eat shit. But when I find my own way to a smile, I feel like a miracle happens. When you feel embarrassed or uneasy, doesn’t your forced smile kind of comfort you? Your own smile is like a safe place. You can go there whenever you want and invite whomever you choose.
Today remind yourself: I’ve got an amazingly powerful smile.
