The Premise

It's my 42nd year on this planet, roughly the midpoint of my life, and I thought I'd commemorate such a milestone with a year of ongoing chronicles. Your comments and "co-authoring" (adding your shared experience to any group events) are welcome and encouraged!

Blizzard Number 3

We got 6 inches of powdery snow overnight. That makes three storms in ten days (the 11th, the 18th, and very early today). Because woke up feeling nearly 100% healthy again (no more headache! No queasy stomach!), I got up at eight, showered right away, ate breakfast, and went out to shovel after awhile. It felt good to be out in the fresh air and sunshine, and the shoveling was effortless. Over the course of the day I ate normally, cleaned the litter box, took out the trash, did nearly all of the possible laundry in the house (clothes, blankets, towels, sheets, etc...) in three loads, did dishes, cleaned the stove top, and cooked.

I also talked to Sarah & the kids on the phone, read Rolling Stone, and wrote up a big blog post/survey/contest about music on Not Lame Minus. Hopefully it will generate some interest.

Positive notes from the illness and blizzard combo: I ate very healthy every day for the last week. It was mostly fruit & veggies, water, small amounts of meat, nuts, cereal and a lot less coffee than I usually consume (less than 2 cups a day until today). Also, I went to bed at a decent hour (in bed by midnight every night, sometimes hours earlier), and got up early (8 am) almost every day. Plus I read more (3 whole books), and sat on my ass in front of this screen or the tv screen a lot less as a result. Not to mention the fact that I signed most of the acts to (and designed a new website for) this year's Music Fest. Now if only I could find a job...
