Congrats BM!

Aahhhh rush hour at 1040 pm. God bless Vancouver

I heard a 20 yo knowledgeably referencing The Last Waltz on the seabus crossing. Hope burns eternal.

*That* was an uncomfortable conference call moment. And for once, I was not the alpha point.

Nice 10 km barefoot on the Seawall in 54 mins. In my head, 17 people congratulated me on my forbearance, and one person gave me a cone.

I !(love) MS Project.

off to run the misty hills of Buntzen

Thinking tomorrow it's VFF and 8.5 km around Buntzen. See if I can do this trail running thing.

10 km barefoot, 52.5 minutes. 5 mins sub 5km. BQ =< 730

I guess even the throwaway creative tries are necessary to the grander project at work.

I've just found the world's most unattractive seating decorative area.

Congratulations Adam Lambert! I love PVR's.

Got a huge email out *and* cut a ten minute walk to the train to a 6 min run with laptop and gym bag. Literally 14 seconds to spare.

No room for the room

I spent a few minutes there, just now.
Where ideas swim in a spaceless room
Conundrums take off their shoes on the welcome mat
And dissolve
No room for them!

And yet the freedom
No objects, no space, no distance, no time
No tension

And now, no room for the room.
Back to the day.

5 km barefoot, 24:11. Yowsah.

Find me
In the space between the rungs
The valleys between the letters

That moment of in-breath
As the baton is raised to queue

Recognizeable Stranger

Find me
In the space between the rungs
The valleys between the letters

That moment of in-breath
As the baton is raised to queue

Resting, alert
Ready, but not waiting

And now
Riding the interior winds
From crown and root to heart

Flare, blossom, dissipate
Silence
Bliss

Again?

Liking Nick Drake. Sad life, beautiful legacy.

Fabric hardened to stain glass; conflagration
As the Light within returns to the Light without
I hitch, am and gone.

Trailer Trashed

Harms way, distanced by a sheet
Copper and moth wings release me
But its freedom by thread-count

In flight; cocooned by the protector
No-place
and everywhere

Fabric hardened to stain glass; conflagration

As the Light within returns to the Light without

I hitch, am and gone.

Any numerologists out there want to provide a thesis as to why my phone keeps trying to dial 7? #nobradpittreferences

Innocence and angst
Grace and sadness
Gather in a great black starred ball
Fold inward
And explode in drifting dandelion seeds

Time to work out mental and physical angst, one foot at a time.

See it Now?

Behind you, there, it's dancing.
See it now?

Febrile glow
Arms outstretched under yours,
Propping you up in my eyes
And reaching for my throat center

It digests
The You I think I see
The 'I' I think I feel

Cavernous maw
Ever unsated

But the field it dances on
Is ever untouched
Blue blushes, and green, and the smell of bubble gum and Bottle Caps

Innocence and angst
Grace and sadness
Gather in a great black starred ball
Fold inward
And explode in drifting dandelion seeds

Which will populate the Karmic field
and Paint new scenes, like the one behind you.

See it now?

Nice easy 6.5 km bf on the seawall. Trying on 4:44 kms for size. Meaning 1, sandwiched by manly shuffling.
