Magickal Realism

So, I’ve reread the principles on page 3, and I have my affirmations from last week still posted on my computer ¹ I did the 20 things exercise, and I keep thinking of additional things I like to do, like swimming. I love swimming. I’m trying to convince Mike to move to the complex next door because it has a well-maintained indoor pool and I can go swimming daily. He used to live there, so he knows what I’m talking about. I also love shooting pool. I mean love it. I have done neither of these things in the past year, possibly two years. This does not mean I am good at either; I’m not particularly² but I still passionately enjoy them.

So, since they’re on the goal lists, this week I must find time to dance and shoot pool. I will see if Joel and/or Brenda and/or Crystal want any part of this. I don’t know if Mike has time, if he does, he’d probably go for shooting pool. If I can get my hands on a new power cord for my laptop, the dancing may consist of dancing outside in my courtyard, but it’s dancing, dammit. I’ll check the schedule on the 90s, Ground Zero, Jitters. On the rare occasions I shoot pool, I usually go to this place in Burnsville. I’ll ask around and see if the halls on Central and University are safe enough.

Note: I’ve also drawn up my safety map. I’m pleased to say that the inside of the circle is much more filled than the outside of it.

2. I can be at pool, but it takes hours of reacquainting myself. And contact lenses. [↩]
