I could almost go there just to live in a dream
When you go through a breakup, everyone that knows or finds out always throw out phrases like "meant to be" and "follow your heart" and "do what you want to do". Where would that have gotten me if I'd always followed my heart and never followed my head? In trouble, is where I get myself when I trust my heart 100%. Sometimes, I think my head knows best when my heart is too confused.
This is pretty cool: "The JCB DieselMax has set the FIA International Land Speed Record for a Diesel-Powered vehicle at 328.767mpg on the Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah on August 22, 2006. The DieselMax streamliner vehicle set two way sppeds of 324.265 and 333.364mpg within the stipulated one hour to set the record. The vehicle is powered by two modified JCB444 Diesel engines developed by Ricardo."
Watched both "Dirty Dancing" and "Dirty Dancing in Havana Nights" on Sunday night. That killed about half my day. But I wish I could dance like that, in fact, I wish I could dance everything! Maybe I'll take it up for my last two weeks of summer just for fun. Yeah I think I might.
Anyway, this Norah Jones song is a song I think I could learn to tango to. Her songs are mostly melancholy, and strangely, I think they sound very holiday-ish.
Oh yeah, Catherine and my trip got rescheduled. I should be there right now, but instead, we're going August 30 through September 1st. I'm debating because I want to take some time off for myself before school and work pick up again. Would it be more of a smooth transition to not stop working and just plow through school when it starts? Or would it be easier to take a couple days off before school starts up...? Well I just looked at the calendar and I've got the rest of this week at work, Wednesday through Friday next week in Chicago, and class start the following Tuesday. So I guess if I want to take a day off, it has to be tomorrow or Friday. Yeah I think that's what I'll do.
Last night, I went to the JCC to see Jay and the class. I can't believe how big it has gotten, and I can't believe who is still training! Supposedly, they're moving the program to a full time class out in a new building in Wixom. It made me regret all the times I stopped trainging and never really picked it back up again. If I still were training as hard as I did several years ago at the peack of my training, I can't imaing how great my progress and physical shape would be now. I might go to see the new school tonight. Maybe I'll take that up for the last two weeks of summer instead. Besides, it's better for me to train in philosophy, defense, and discipline than learning to dance.
Aside from all this, I'm wishing I had the money and time to spare for buying half-season Pistons tickets (or even a mini-plan which I think is 11 games). This'll also be the first year in years I won't be statkeeping, which pretty much leaves me to my TV for any basketball excitement.
