Today's Tip

20 Minute Workout

Get good workout music.

It's important as a motivation tool and you can't underestimate the power of great music to get your ass in gear. My weapon of choice is Hed Kandi: A Taste of Kandi (Summer 2006). What I love about it is that it starts off at a moderate pace and then builds up to a rousing tempo in the end (45 minutes later), after which I then restart it for a 10 minute cooling down period and some ab crunches (I hate doing them but they're a "necessary evil" to avoid back pain). My entire workout lasts about an hour which suits me just fine. Each track is edited down to 3 minute segments of pure aural pleasure and I've included a few samples below to give you a taste. One thing's for sure: without my Kandi I'd be a lot more sedentary, a miserable mass of aches and pains and feeling like a stranger in my own body. These days, I can climb a flight of stairs without losing my breath like an asthmatic 80-year-old and my heart thanks me for it. If this keeps up, I'm going to enter a marath-...*snort!* Yeah, right.

Miss Him

Mr. Kamikaze's in Africa for 4 months building schools. He made this composite of me and one of his pics from a previous trip to the "dark continent". I don't dare imply that I wish he were here cause that would be selfish, but if he were to cut his trip short as he said he might, then I'd feel only slightly guilty about it. We only saw each other for 4 weeks before he left but it was really intense. Right now, I feel like I've been left hanging and I don't know whether I'm going to feel better or worse about the situation as the weeks go by. The only thing I can say for sure is that our timing sucks.

AFRICA by TOTO
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say
"Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like a leopardess above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become

[Chorus]

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

[Chorus]
