Living in the future.

So, I’m writing this on my phone, because I’m bored, and I figure it’ll take up more time. Also, because I just found the WordPress app for iPhone, and figured I’d give it a test run. So far, so good.

Today I had a bit of a scare – I checked my bank account to find that the bank had run my last transaction ($545) through twice, leaving me almost $500 in the red. I couldn’t focus on anything for the rest of the work day. I went in right after work and got it fixed – but the guy didn’t fix it all the way. I’m still $25 shy of where I was before they screwed up. And thus, my hatred of banks is reinstated.

I went in and bought WiiFit yesterday, on a whim. We brought it home… and damn. That thing doesn’t mess around. I did exactly 30 minutes of stuff (yoga, strength training, aerobics) and was very sweaty at the end of all of it. Jackie did the same later in the evening (while I was at the fitness center on an actual elliptical) and had the same result. This pleases me – for some reason, I had completely underestimated WiiFit. It’s a refreshing way to jump back on the fitness bandwagon.

So a couple nights ago, I sat down with the sole intention of doing some design work for this very blog. And… found I was mentally and creatively empty. I ended up trudging through some stuff, just to do something, anything – but it wasn’t what I imagined or wanted at all. It scares me a little. Where did my imagination go; and more importantly, what happened to the skills I used to have that used to harness that and turn it into something tangible?

Ack.
