"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are." ~Anais Nin

Today, I reached homeostasis (Homeostasis: Noun - Psychology : a state of psychological equilibrium obtained when tension or a drive has been reduced or eliminated) ... and I so wish I knew how to achieve this state at will.  But if it's due to the current planetary alignment, or reaching the targeted sugar consumption, or achieving an ample amount of unplanned orgasms, then I'll strive for something more simple ...

Just got done watching "Black Swan" starring Natalie Portman. I could so relate to the dual personality dilemmas she had.

In preparation for my goals for the upcoming year, I’m getting used to the idea of bringing my camera with me wherever I go again ... it’ll be like an extension of me, an appendage.

An even loftier ideal is to promptly process and actually share them. ;P

Today's writing assignment:   Write the Smells of Things That Don't Smell (Much) and then pick your favorite 3 (of which I marked via bold-face and an *):

What is the smell of:

• mystery - homemade stew
• the moon - an ancient scroll *
• sadness - an abandoned building
• child's joy in watching a soap bubble - fresh-baked cookies *
• grief - toxic fumes
• cowardice - bad body odor
• snow - vanilla ice cream
• velcro - new car
• a nasty letter - cat feces
• silver - being inside a car factory
• sand - the beach on a windy day
• a sidewalk in summer - spicy tacos
• the middle of the earth - a newborn
• purple - inside of a spa
• a contented dog napping - an open bag of Doritos * 
• a cloudless spring sky - honeysuckle
• gold - fresh baked bread
• a dollar bill - an old book

So tired ... not really wanting to work out ... but as Arnold would say in that famous accent of his:  "When you exercise you energize," so I better get to it now if I'm going to do it at all tonight ...

My Youtube pick for the day =)
