Tonight's items

Health: Drink green tea. Can't hurt you, and looks like the benefits are pretty awesome, just like folks have been saying all along. While we're here, let me semi-tangentially mention that getting into alternative health stuff (and by "alternative health stuff" I mean things not having to do with antibiotics and other doctorly things) has been one of the best things I've ever done. Green tea, pomegranates, acai, tons of fruit and veggies, excersize, finding that zen through excersize, leaving meat behind, making my own skin care products without parabens or petroleum (surprisingly easy), all of that good stuff: remarkably easy, not as expensive as people think, and way past worth it. Green tea is just a small example. Slightly tangential here: why do people spend thousands of dollars on weight loss programs, when eating less and moving more are actually free?

House tonight: FUN! Admittedly House can get really stretchy with medical facts and stuff, but after all it is a TV show. And the characters are still fun and enjoyable. Sucks to have to wait till the 27th to see a new one. That will be AFTER the 30STM concert.

30 Seconds to Mars: OMG. A little nervous about the upcoming concert. I've seen them 3 times and enjoyed each time, but I'm afraid this will be a downer without Matt, with the crappy venue, the short set list, and the slim to none chance of getting to meet the guys. I've already met them and it was grea but ... really I want Jo-chan to have a splendid time. I wish it was a smaller venue. I wish Matt hadn't left. Going on with 30STM: I love you, Jared Leto, for your random impromptu acoustic solo performance at 2 AM for the 20 or so people waiting around the tour bus to say hello. What a nice guy. LOL at him correcting the folks who started singing to him in the wrong key.

New job: I start tomorrow. Rumor is that the woman who runs the place (an aquaintance of mine for a few years, but we've never gotten to know each other too well yet) is extremely exacting and very detailed and pretty hardcore about every little thing. Which, you know, I'm not necessarily that way. I hope I can meet her standards. Because if I do, not only will I be doing what I love (working to rehabilitate birds, with lots of raptors and other things not seen everyday!) but I will be getting an extra hundred dollars or more a week for a few measly hours. I also have to leave the Kung Fu desk job. Which kind of blows. But dude. An extra hundred dollars a week that I can put away instead of spending on groceries and other junk.

Book stuff: Wrote a huge chapter. Will try to continue to write tonight.

Weather: Late season last gasp arctic blast FTW. Ten degrees tomorrow. I can dig it.

Friends: My friends at work, though snarky, can sometimes come out with some really sweet things to say. Mostly, they are awesome.

I dunno, I guess that's it. I'm all wound up for tomorrow. Send me good work vibes please!
