How do you slow your blood after the body rush?

Posted on by Shawshank

Back to work today. It was a nice, and sometimes long 4 days off. Well, 3.5 days off as I went in for a few hours yesterday.

Had to go to SlightlyBiggerTown to grab some groceries for my mom. I stopped by the newest business there, the local weed store, where my coworker also works. She recommended something to me, and I picked it up. It wasn’t bad. More of a “sink in to the couch”, as opposed to “get hit with a brick and sleep next to the dumpster” feeling that I’m more used to.

I’m at a loss of what else to chit-chat about this morning. I’m still sleepy, and would very much like to sip my coffee for a while.

I hope everyone has a great day. If you’re learning circus tricks, make up your own love, but give it a really serious name; like The Porchengko. Or something like that. If you’re gonna workout today. Use the heaviest of your weights, but lift with your knees! You got today! Make it your bitch!

What’s one book that you wish you could read again for the first time?

I’ve always said that you can only read a book for the first time. You can only be surprised by a twist or a cliff hanger once.

Which book do you wish you could read again for the first time?

For me, it’s A Storm of Swords by George RR Martin. Yes, that one. For those in the know, they know what I’m talking about. Crystal does for sure.

This is the one book that I’ve thrown across the room once I hit that certain chapter. Do you know which one I’m talking about?

The North Remembers.

Yeah, I’m talking about The Red Wedding. Martins writing in that chapter is flawless. He navigates with expertise, I didn’t know what was happening until it was over. Cue throwing the book, and just rushing to get it, and rereading the chapter over again.

I wish I could read it again for the first time.
