"These LAST-couple of days my MIND has been--KINDA--you know ... NOT-good."

... --Elaine, 'Seinfeld'

... UUUGGGHHH!  I caN'T TELL if I'm HUNGOVER, or it's JUST Monday.
(... ?!)


-- The DATE is/was MATHEMATICALLY-"sound".
(... 4/4/16) 
(... MONTH multiplied-by DAY = LAST-TWO digits of YEAR)

... This "MATHEMATICAL-holiday'" will NEXT-happen on
May 5, 2025 in ... 3,318 DAYS.
________________________________________________
-- In lieu of my--TEMPORARY--"LOSS-of LEG-strength & -coordination", I've REALLY started-to APPRECIATE the SEEMINGLY-LESS significant aspects of MY EVERYDAY-life.  THUS, I thought of THIS: 

'All the Small Things'
(by Blink 182)

""All The Small Things"

All the small things
True care, truth brings
I'll take one lift
Your ride best trip

Always I know
You'll be at my show
Watching, waiting, commiserating

Say it ain't so,
I will not go,
Turn the lights off,
Carry me home

Na, na...

Late night, come home
Work sucks, I know
She left me roses by the stairs,
Surprises, let me know she cares

Say it ain't so,
I will not go,
Turn the lights off,
Carry me home

Na, na...

Say it ain't so,
I will not go,
Turn the lights off,
Carry me home

Keep your head still,
I'll be your thrill,
The night will go on,
My little windmill

Say it ain't so,
I will not go,
Turn the lights off,
Carry me home

Keep your head still,
I'll be your thrill,
The night will go on,
The night will go on,
My little windmill"

(MY revision, entitled, 

'I Have Virtues':

"I HAVE ... VER-CHOOZ.

'Tis most-LEE ... good NEWS.

I NEED ... leg-NERVES.

One-'WALK', best-SWERVES.

ALL-WAYS ... I TRY.

I've got-TO ... stay SPRY.

Standing.  ... At least, TRYING.  ... Nerves 'de-NYING'.

... ENOUGH o' this 'SHIT'.

I will-NOT QUIT.

Leg-STRENGTH will RE-TURN

... To 'CARRY me HOME'.

La, LA ...

Dojo-CLASS, ... My 'second-HOME'.
'Mad-RESPECT', ... I KNOW.    
 I step by LEADING-with my HEELS.
Bandaids let me know it FEELS.

... ENOUGH o' this 'SHIT'.

I will-NOT QUIT.

Leg-STRENGTH will RE-TURN

... To 'CARRY me HOME'.

La, LA ...

... ENOUGH o' this 'SHIT'.

I will-NOT QUIT.

Leg-STRENGTH will RE-TURN

... To 'CARRY me HOME'.

Show me a TWITCH.
DoN'T 'act like a BITCH'!
I WILL 'find a WAY'
To STRENGTHEN my 'WALK'!

... ENOUGH o' this 'SHIT'.

I will-NOT QUIT.

Leg-STRENGTH will RE-TURN

... To 'CARRY me HOME'.

Show me a TWITCH.

DoN'T 'act like a BITCH'!

I WILL 'find a WAY',

I WILL 'find a WAY'
To STRENGTHEN my 'WALK'!"

-- The trouble IS ... 

"If you doN'T RISK-ANYTHING, 

... you RISK-MORE."

(... 'Tis A BIT of a "catch-22".)

(... If I doN'T "take CHANCES", when I'm STANDING and/or "WALKING", I caN'T get-BETTER.  ... I've GOTTA ... "OVERCOME my FEARS"!)  

-- We are what we repeatedly do. 

Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.  

... I--REPEATEDLY--use SCIENCE to assist my EXERCISE & HOST parties.  Ergo, ... I'm a ...
"PROFESSIONAL BIO-KINETIC social-ENTERTAINER".       

... "'EDUCATION' is NOT 'the LEARNING of FACTS' ... but 
'the TRAINING of the MIND to THINK'."
(--Albert Einstein)

... People must be taught HOW to think, ... not WHAT to think.

... One thing I--the TEACHER--LEARNED during my TUTORING, is that EACH-person "FAVORS" HOW he/she LIKES-to "ATTACK" a MATH-problem.  I made my RECOMMENDATIONS.  But, ULTIMATELY, ... 'tis "To EACH his-OWN."
... To a much-LESSER extent, I URGE my 'Karateka'/Karate-students to utilize my ANALYZED fighting-techniques.  ... But, whatever WORKS!    


-- Just because you're/I'm/WE'RE CONSIDERED "trash", doesN'T MEAN you/I/WE caN'T do GREAT-things.  
... 'Tis called a "garbage CAN" ... not a "garbage can-NOT".

... Can I get an "AMEN!"?

(... EERIE-/AWKWARD-SILENCE)  


-- AAAHHH, "'CLEAR-CUT'-'COMMUNICATION' is a NECESSITY"

... I--VERBALLY--discussed with my MAIN-Nurse WHY my EVENING-Nurse didN'T TELL-me how OFTEN she "FEEDS-me" "laxatives". 
(... HARUMPF!)

... I "discussed WITH"/CONVINCED my housemate that we should BOTH attend our high school's UPCOMING (WEDNESDAY-evening) "Alumni Night" at a LOCAL-bar.
... It SHOULD-be "WILD"! 
(.. I am REALLY "looking-FORWARD" to it!)

... A BUDDY of mine--from high school--is getting MARRIED later this month!  ... So, my housemate & I are gonna-GO!


-- 'Twas a PRODUCTIVE "SPEECH-Therapy"-session!
... I ATE two eggs PRACTICALLY-flawlessly!  
... I VERBALIZED ALL-words "played" in Scrabble!


-- 'Twas ALSO a BENEFICIAL-day @ 'NeuroFit 360'!
... VARIOUS FOOTWORK-changes & ALOTTA STRETCHING

... As has become my DAILY-ritual, 
I did ...
3 sets of 50 crunches-EACH ... WITH the SLOW "LEG-raises" during the last TEN.
