i've gotten back into work-out mode. i started going back to the gym to work the cardiovascular, and i'm back to kung fu. i haven't gone in about 2 months, but i kept missing it all the time. it's one of those things you have to be completely into or otherwise you won't advance at all. kung fu is about details and minute mechanics that later on make all the difference. the analogy i make is to math . . . you study algebra, trig, and years of calculus, only to reach differential equations and the math teacher says, "ok, now you're actually doing math, all that other stuff was just basics." with kung fu, its all basics until after 6 or 7 years you get your black sash, and then you begin to learn kung fu.

i've also been getting into cooking mode. last night i made a black bean dish with broccoli, tomatoes, onions, and jalapeno with sauteed garlic and olive oil with a vegetable broth mixed in. it didn't come out quite right -- a little too much broth made it soggy. it still tasted good, but i want to improve on it tonight, maybe add some cilantro as well. i have a book with a 1000 vegetarian recipes so that should keep me busy for a while.

i've also been finishing up my latest mix CD. i have all the tracks selected and ordered, it's just cleaning up the transitions and then i'll be ready to record it. i have some great records i'm putting on it, really funky deep tech house. it's been almost two years since i did a proper mix, so i'm really excited about how it's coming out.

if anyone out there would like a copy of it, just let me know and i will gladly burn a copy for you.
