Drove from Phoenix to my sister’s house in Denver yesteray, and it was anything but boring. Technology is a wonderful thing. Here’s all the things I did:

1. Continued rating every song on my iPod (2700) of them. You listen to them and rate them from 1-5. Easy, and it helps you to create playlists. “My Top Rated” playlist was getting a little old with only 467 songs. Most of my songs are unrated.
2. Did some thinking about my life and where I’m going. This is actually the perfect thing to do when you have a lot of time on your hands and you are kind of stuck not being able to walk, run, move or use your hands much. I made a mental list of improvements to help myself and other people around me.
3. One of my goals for the past month has been to stop hanging on to ridiculous anger towards people in my past who really don’t deserve it. I mean, it is not helping me and they are not even aware of it. I knew I would be over it when I would happily forgive someone with my whole heart. But this is a choice – and I decided to jump off the cliff and do it. It felt wonderful.

Clear out email via my phone. Yeah, I know it isn’t safe, but you have 12 hours and you don’t have to do anything too quickly.

4. Send text messages to my sister letting her know where I am. Yes, another unsafe activity.
5. Send text messages to other people and wish them Merry Christmas. I don’t believe in the Happy Holidays thing. I’m not even religious, and I love Christmas. To me, it’s not a religious holiday, as commercial as it is. I wouldn’t be offended if some one said Happy Hanuka so whatever.
6. Enjoy the scenery. Some nice stuff along with the boring stuff.
