Exhaust Me

It's all fun and games until your jeans don't fit any longer.  

I've not been able to get into the gym for a few weeks and it's killing me. Possibly literally. It also makes me a little grumpy. For me, personally the gym isn't just about getting fit physically. It's about being healthy all round. When I've pushed myself to my limits, exhausted every fiber of my being, mentally and physically I am at my best. Building blocks.

It truly is a beautiful thing.

Even Dancing Ninja's Stumble

It's okay JLaw, I didn't even have the excuse of wearing a big flouncy dress.

Catlike super human ninja skills failed me last night as I came down the stairs. A coughing fit combined with an absence seizure, brought back the reality of my all to human qualities. My butt, back, shoulder, forearm, and legs met the edge of the hardwood stairs with equal and unsettling force. It was a fine moment of grace, beauty, and sheer willpower to stay conscious. Today I move rather slowly, and the excess padding upon my posterior lets me know that even excess padding cannot replace non slip soles. Or happenstance. Standing is a great option today. Not moving at all is a better option still.

Where's Sheldon to sing me "Soft kitty" when I need him?

487 Days

"A delicious night to be alive," came the softly spoken words. The dance complete, the steps lost to memory, lingering cologne on pillows, and dreams of tomorrow. It all burns so bright before gradually fading to a wistful longing. Grown men have turned away shielding their gaze from the raw emotion before them, and still...we remain.

Longing for more.

Temptation

You cannot lead me to the forbidden places, that I don't want to go. You simply cannot tempt me.
I will always be able to say no. Just turn that corner and walk away. I'll follow my own path. What's meant to be, will always be. There is no need to rush. In the dark I'll find you once more. but right now you mustn't touch.

Time

The sun's about to rise over you, so many miles away. I've been up all night drawing from life in huge gasps calling your name.

Forbidden Fruit

Thou shalt not _________________________.  You fill in the blank.

Strands

Sinks and islands filled. Highlights of friendship and laughter that glisten like stars in the sky. All unique, all small strands in the intricate and beautiful tapestry that forms life. We dance, along that fine line of moderation and ultimate hedonistic pleasure.
