  • Manata and the Mindfulness Monday Adventure

    Hey look, I have a blog. Must have forgotten.
    Arbitrary milestone time: anyway, one thing I haven’t forgotten is using my very Ben Franklin-esque method of making the virtues I deem important preeminent in my mind and actions. So, every week, I take one virtue and focus spcifically on that one. Not that the others go forgotten, but one gets particular attention. This week is the last in the cycle; concentration. I started well before — but my first official time documenting this method was August 3, 2009. That makes this the last virtue in what I think is the 15th cycle of 8.

    5 things that made me happy:
    * Phineas and Ferb
    * Baby Dalt
    * FFN
    * Munchkin Tournament
    * sleep!

    5 things I’m going to try to do this week:
    * Sit daily
    * Lunch workouts
    * Get good sleep
    * Shut up
    * Really study each week’s path item

    This week: Concentration

  • Manata and the 5th Tattoo Adventure

    This one was bigger than the others…combined. Turned out nicely. These were taken like 40 minutes after we were done. I’ll have to remember to get some pictures of it after it heals a bit.

  • Manata and the 2011 NHL Playoff Beard Adventure

    Well, it was a fun ride, but it seems as if it was Boston’s turn this year. They played great in the series and we, well…didn’t.

    So here is the end result of all of this shenanigans.

    BEFORE

    DURING (Eww.)

    AFTER

    I left juuuuuuust a little bit. Is that cheating?

    Oh well. Until next year!
