what I did today

 Today I woke up and then went back to sleep. Overall a pretty good slumber.

Then I got up and made my usual smoothie with canned mandarin oranges, protein powder, vanilla Greek yogurt, banana, and frozen berries. I did the sudoku in my sudoku book and watched Youtube. I'm on them medium difficulty puzzles now and they take twice as long to do. I also made coffee. I was noticing a lot of noises happening outside and I was trying to concentrate at the same time and I didn't want to sit in silence but also I couldn't find anything to play in the background that wouldn't start giving me a headache. But I powered through and solved the puzzle anyway because I'm a champ like that I guess. Then my friend stopped by to give me some eggs and we made a little zine about eggs and hung out and then I went to the track and met up with my other friend and we did a sprint workout that went pretty dang good! I was happy.

I showered and ate plant burgers and then I went to the gym and did squats and hung out with folks there. Squats weren't feeling great but then I did 195 and 200 and it started moving pretty well so I went for 210 which would've been a 5lb new best and got stuck about halfway up and fought for what felt like a really long time but was probably only 2 seconds at most. It was really close though. On a day when I actually feel good I can definitely get it. 


My thought of the day is this:

As the sweet apple reddens on the highest branch,

high on the highest branch, that the apple pickers forgot-

no, they didn't forget; that apple they could not reach

 Pixar movie called 'Doors' where the people is doors and keys are their food and this one mean door--everyone thinks he hates keys but then, um, it's just the one specific key that unlocks him and he never really hated keys at all. 

Right? Will this heal our wounded soul? What if we pretended to not understand the relationship between doors and keys and then solved it with the plot of a movie? Couldn't we all stand around then and pat ourselves on the back over the triumph of understanding and emotional growth?

Doors!
