Reflective Practicioner
You should see me now. I'm sitting on the beach, literally. I'm here with my computer and a bottle of orange juice and miraculously, I have a wireless internet connection. Life is grand, in a very weird way.
I haven't felt that great today. It's hard to go back to work after a long weekend. I'm pretty busy at work lately, and today I had a new hire orientation on top of everything else. That new hire stuff is pretty much a waste of my time. At least today they gave me free lunch.
I really felt like I was coasting at work today. My body just didn't seem up to performing at a high level. Toward the end of the day a headache started to break out, and it is still with me now. This is why I decided to come to the beach...to get away from it all. So I grabbed some soup, a sandwich, and some orange juice and here I am, blogging away at the beach. I should make this a regular thing.
Here's something you all may not know about me...or maybe you do. Sometimes I love just sitting by myself in some sort of secluded location and getting some pure thinking done. I can't describe the things I think about, because generally they're pretty random. I will say that I rarely think about academic topics during alone time...well, at least I don't think about them in the way I think about them at school. I'll stop trying to explain, because I don't think it's coming out right. The take home message is a beautiful location + alone Josh = a happy Josh. Of course, I also enjoy contemplating with others around, don't let my sentiments fool you.
A throwback to my original blog title, here are some Random Randoms:
- La Jolla is beautiful
- Life is much happier than it seems
- By this time next week I will have run a marathon
- I miss Indiana
- My knees have been very tender lately, which scares me
- Fried foods are bad for the soul
- I'm so sorry that you're in pain
- Students at my alma mater are shut-ins
- I'm not a fan of cats at all right now
- Friends from way back are awesome
- New friends are fantastic as well
- A good acoustic guitar riff never fails to help rebuild the soul (Thank you people behind me singing some Christian rock...I'm not a believer, but that doesn't mean it's not good music)
- I miss summer camp
- I wish you were here with me, right now

fried foods are bad for the HEART, good for the soul. i am going to blame your mistake on the probable delirium you are experiencing from your running.
