do you fart in your kitchen?

I suppose that is a sign of being comfortable at home, farting everywhere, in the kitchen while cooking or sitting on the couch watching TV or at the dining room table eating, but how about when others are around breathing the air you just farted?... ah, life with Rasputin, couch potato extraordinaire, child of television, purveyor of much gas, and always inspiring deep questions for your perusal, or at least some simple sarcasm...

meanwhile, I skipped through the raindrops and did the gym thing one more night and I feel good fatigue (I almost didn't go because I've been pushing hard the last two nights, taking the eliptical machine up to level 17 and averaging above level 14 and more than 800 calories an hour, which is still light compared to when I was truly in good shape, but it's definitely progress) and only got four hours sleep last night, but I'm dedicated... and crazy)...

I rambled a bit too, if you're interested in what the brain was doing while the body was asking me, "why the pain?"...

work gets more surreal every day... and every day I miss working directly with the kids full time a little more, but I still enjoy the challenge of trying to inject some organization into the system that provides the care by coming up with ways of increasing and improving communication of the pertinent information everyone can use to coordinate optimal care for the kids, or so I tell myself as I watch the wheels spinning in different directions all around me... modern medicine, ain't it grand...

still, it turns me on... and coming home I did the usual, cooked, ate, watched Friday night Sci-Fi before and after the gym, showered, rambled, and came here and started this entry just as my dear roommate was waking up... so much excitement, I even almost considered starting to do laundry...

so there you have it, tonight's episode of life in RealTime™... it's not quite the babble that so many adored and revered for so long (hey, it's my history, I can write it as I want to remember it ya know), but it's human, right?... and it's keeping in touch for those of you who want to... never know when some long lost friend or lover will be looking for me and thrilled to have found me here, right?... sure, it's a fairy tale dream to believe love never ends and we are all friends and everyone we've ever loved still loves us and we're all one big happy family and the sharing should continue cuz that's how to make a full life and never waste a moment, but somebody's gotta do it...

meanwhile, it's all here, just in case you wanted to know :)

hope you are loving life tonight...
