Just A Swinging
You ever notice how hard it is to get back into the swing of something. The beginning of last year I joined a gym. I got into it pretty well, dropped some weight and was feeling pretty good. It went on for a few months. I was in there 3 days a week faithfully. Then April rolled around and I had a convention to go to for a few days… from there I stared slipping to where I wasn’t going once every two weeks. Now I’m trying to get back into it again, back to the regular schedule to get in shape.
But there are lots of thing I have to get back into the swing of: I’m single (ladies can reach me through my email above) for the first time in years, so I’m going to have to start dating again. Not that I was good at it in the first place. The results of most of my dating were “good friends”… and that’s pretty sad. So I guess I don’t want to get back into that swing exactly. I’m looking for "home runs", or at least "stand up doubles"… but my history has been “reached on an error” or "fouled out".
The big thing I have to get back to doing is writing this page. I was doing good for the first couple weeks, but I got side tracked by a trip last week and now I’m lucky if I get one thing up a day (that could be taken so wrong). But I am heading off to Oakland Friday morning for three days, so again I’m going to be thrown off… So how do people do it? How do you keep dedicated to something when it’s so easy to slip? Well don’t look to me for answers on that one… I’m the guy who’s using this column as filler for my web page that I can’t get back into writing yet.
