Instead of riding my bike, I stayed home with a bottle of wine and my dvd player.

I actually listened to my body today and took a break. I changed my weightlifting workout yesterday because my muscles were getting bored and they adapted (like the Borg). I also made my aikido class work out pretty hard. They won't complain because they are all guys, but I am sore today.

I am feeling alone in crowds again lately. I think it is because I have been pretty reserved emotionally. It takes me a while to warm up to people, it is true. I guess after that happens I am bad about showing it. Some people make it easier than others, though, don't they? I wish to be one of those people.

I attended a baby shower on Friday. It was in a very affluent section of southern Johnson County. I thought, "What the hell am I doing parallel parking my pickup on this street?" I had fun, though. The food was great, but again, these were not my people.

A friend of mine was going to invite me to soak in a hot tub with her friends, but I already had plans. She is a mom, a pharmacist, and a Mary Kay representative. She was also my aikido teacher. She could be my people, she is a member of the '67 Club, and a Scorpio, but the Mary Kay?!?

I am feeling pretty good with this lovely wine buzz. Now what to do with it? I wish my Friends List understood Spanish so they could appreciate this music I am playing. A great reason to learn other languages is that it opens the door to understanding more music (and more people). I could take more full advantage if I were not so shy.
