Status Report

The last month has been an interesting and at times painful one.

Reason one for it being painful is that I hurt myself lifting weights about three weeks ago. I was training my legs and decided to continue adding weight when I should have eased up. All of a sudden I felt the sharpest of pains in my lower back which ended the days weight training.

After dealing with pain, stiffness and major discomfort I finally felt well enough to return to the gym today where Jimmy and I had a very invigorating chest workout. We stretched a good deal before lifting weights which I hope will now become a pattern with us.

Another major development is that I've gotten a dog named Music. Thanks to my friend Geoffrey who researched and found me the sweetest dog. She's a bit shy with me at times and acts nervous but I'm trying to win her over best I can with love, loads of walks and lots of treats.

Also, I've been busy DJ-ing, making music and taking a good deal of photographs of the City and State I love so much!

My emotional health has been steady of late. I worry about Aaron in Iraq a bit to much and sometimes stress out over the direction of my life and worry about the State of Mankind.

I try to balance out theses negative thoughts with meditation and mental relaxations exercises. Now that I can work out again hopefully I wont enternalize any hurtful feelings or thoughts for long.

Things are and have been ok for sure. Everyone deals with stress and why should I be any different?

I just wish I knew what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. If there is even such a thing!!!

Sigh.

Until next time.
