One of the great things about having the luxury of time is that you can pursue thoughts down every rabbit hole and see where they lead.
I've been spending about an hour a day walking on a treadmill. There's terrible music in the health club, so the little music player is a real treat. So here I've got this chunk of time and there's nothing to do but think. Or zone out. There are lots of distractions--who knew that watching telenovelas with the sound off could be so fascinating. Not for the storylines, nor the "acting", but for the amazing, ghetto-riffic clothes they stick the female stars into. Oh, the guys aren't far behind. And I'm about to go to LA just to shove the fake-old straw cowboy hat up the costumers ass...
But I digress. Thinking. The ol' brain box is still in shock. Exercising. Eating better. Oy gevalt. Next thing you know, I'll be addicted to age-inappropriate clothing. Skirts above knees! Gah!
*laugh*
It's interesting seeing other women at the gym. You can tell the little gym bunnies with their perfectly manicured nails. But you can also see the abundance of tattoos and piercings that the majority of people seem to have. I wonder how much longer corporate America will be able to discriminate against those who've decided to mark themselves? I know, for me, that if I see someone with piercings or a tattoo I tend to trust them a little more. In general.
Honestly, it depends. I see some tool with a kanji the size of Plano, Texas on their arm I get the sense that they're trend followers--neither original nor interesting. Now, some unusual piece of work, one that shows some care and thought went into it? That is a big okay in my book. But the work has to be done with care and obvious planning.
I'm a snob like that.
Ciao.
