Noted this day
Mar. 21st, 2009 11:04 pmThere are not enough synonyms in the English language for "walk" and "look".
There are especially not enough synonyms for "glare" and "stare".

Also, Tai Chi this morning kind of rocked. I really didn't want to go, but I was so glad I did. By the end, I was loose and limber and in a much better frame of mind than when I woke up this morning. I'm learning a much less athletic form than I took when I was younger, which has caused a few problems--I get too low and lean too much--but the emphasis of this form on balance and understanding the space my body is in seems to be helping my general lack of coordination quite a bit.
The end.
