"A DREAM you have ALONE is just-THAT. A DREAM you SHARE with OTHERS ... is called 'REALITY'."

... --Brian Finch's quoting John Lennon, 'Limitless'

... This show really-IS INSPIRING/ENCOURAGING!
Yes, 'tis TRUE that--UN-like ME--Brian's MIRACULOUS-intelligence is "PHARMACEUTICALLY-bred" & "ARTIFICIALLY-'ENHANCED'".  But, I "brush-ASIDE" this DETAIL, ... 'cuz I'm "glass is half-FULL".  I interpret the PREMISE of his staggering-WISDOM as "HOPE for a PRODUCTIVE- & "JOY-FULL"-FUTURE!

... THUS, in a WAY, Lennon advocated "SOCIAL-ism".
(... No, I am NOT referring-to his political-IDEALOGY.  I am merely HUMOROUSLY referring-to Lennon's SEEMING-to tell ME to go-/get-OUT more AND/OR to host more par-TAYS.)


-- "LOVE" comes NATURALLY.
"HATE" is LEARNED.

(... 'Tis an OPTIMISTIC-outlook on the INFINITE thoughts, emotions & actions of "MANKIND".)


-- "No matter how-LONG you've 'travelled in the WRONG-direction', you can ALWAYS 'turn-AROUND'."
(--'Daily Vibes')

... "JUST-because someone 'STUMBLES' and 'loses their path', doesN'T mean they're lost FOREVER.  Sometimes, we ALL need a little 'HELP'."
(--Professor X-the eldER, 'X-Men: Days of Future Past')

... "I'm not the man I WAS.  I 'open my mind up', & it almost 'OVERWHELMS me'."
(--Charles Xavier-the youngER, 'X-Men: Days of Future Past')

... I'm "in 'EMOTIONAL-TURMOIL'" over my INTERNAL-/ "NON-visible"-empathy.  
My INTERNAL-soliloquy: "It's not THEIR-pain you're AFRAID-of.  It's yours, (A.J.).  And, as FRIGHTENING as it can be, that 'PAIN' will make you STRONGER.  If you allow yourself to feel it, embrace it.  It will make you more powerful than you EVER-imagined.  It's the greatest gift we have: to bear their 'PAIN' with-OUT 'BREAKING'.  And, it comes from the most human part of us: HOPE.  (A.J.), we need you to 'HOPE' again." 
(--Professor X-the eldER, 'X-Men: Days of Future Past')

... I've got PLENTY-of "HOPE".  But, the TRICK is to COMBINE ... GARGANTUAN-amounts of "HOPE" with Undying-OPTIMISM & RELENTLESS-ENERGY!      


-- "If 'SIZE MATTERED', then the ELEPHANT would be 
'KING of the Jungle'."
(--FAMOUS martial artist Rickson Gracie)
(... I've NEVER-been a man of LARGE-stature.  I've always PREFERRED-to let my KICKS--in "Martial Arts"-class--OR my WITTY-WORDS--to "create" FEAR or "initiate" INTIMIDATION in "my DOUBTERS".)  

-- I went-OUT to my old high school to WATCH a BIG-"wrestling-'dual meet'" against Dillard High.  I met TWO buddies AT St. Thomas for SAID "event".  ... I "JOKED with"/TEASED my two friends:
"Dillard MAY 'beat the SHIT outta us' in BASKETBALL.  But, in WRESTLING, we 'BRING da NOIZE!'"
(... BOTH of my pals USED-to be EXCELLENT BASKETBALL players ... for our high school.  ... Ha ha HA!)

... (AUDIBLE-sigh) The Scorekeeper was NOT posting/updating the ONGOING "TEAM-Score", so I HAD-to MANUALLY-/MENTALLY-"keep track".  
HHHMMM, the FINAL-Score was ... 
((12 weight-divisions --> 10 "FALLS" (times 6 "TEAM-points") + 1 "TECH-FALL" (times 5 "TEAM-points) to 1 "TECH-FALL"))
... 65 - 5 ... MY high school (Saint Thomas Aquinas) WINS!
... In BINARY 'twas "1_0_0_0_0_0_1", STA!
(... There are/were 72 MAXIMUM-"POSSIBLE-points".)
PLUS, THREE of MY ex-TEAMMATES are Assistant Coaches for the team!  We four AND my two basketball-buddies ENJOYED some LAUGHS, as we "shot the PROVERBIAL 'SHIT'" ... for ~15 minutes before the matches.
Plus PLUS, my ex-"ASSISTANT Coach" (NOW the "HEAD Coach") GAVE me two SPLENDID "STA-Wrestling"-shirts!


-- "NEW-'SHIT' has come-to 'light'."
(--Dude, 'The Big Lebowski')
My MAIN-Nurse informed me that, ALTHOUGH it IS POSSIBLE to get/have my "peg-tube" REMOVED, the technology does NOT-YET exist.
BUMMER!
BUT, "there are TWO-sides to EVERY-coin".  So, 'tis COMFORTING/mind-SOOTHING/nerves-CALMING to know that, at-LEAST, scientists are WORKING-on a LEGITIMATE-"solution".

... MORE "NEW-'shit'": 
While coming-home AFTER the "Dual meet", a GREAT-song with a PHENOMENAL-beat came-ON my car-radio, & I was "MESMERIZED" by SAID-"beat".
I ACTUALLY-began "snapping my fingers" ... with my BAD/INJURED/"WORTHLESS" LEFT-hand.
PRE-accident, I could BARELY QUIETLY-snap with my LEFT-hand!  NOW, ... "BOO-YAH!"
(... YYYEEESSS!  ... YAY!) 


-- THIS is a LITLE "INTELLIGENCE-Test":
(WHAT's ANOTHER "line"/"mathematical-statement"?)

(--'New Girl')



-- I'm PROUD-of my LARGE-/VAST-Collection of ASSORTED films!

'Tis School-EVE!

... ACTUALLY, now that I THINK-about it, ... AND my housemate's & my "HANDY"/HELPFUL online-calendar REMINDED me that I am going-to an "amateur-/high school-" WRESTLING match TOMORROW-"PREvening".

... I STARTED typing this "blog-POST" LATE last night.  But, now that I've "begun a 'NEW-day'", I've RE-considered my SCHEDULE & APPLIED my "FINDINGS".

(... I BEGIN my "PROGRAMMING-class" (CS50x) ... at Miami-Dade College on SATURDAY.)
((... ALSO, I START my "pursuit of a 'Certificate of ... Knowledge(?)'" in May '16.))

... I'm DUE for some PRACTICE.  ... Ergo, ...

... MY "Date of Birth" ... in BINARY:
1_0_ 0 / 1_0_0_0 / 1_0_0_0 / 1_0_1 
= 4/8/85

... My BROTHER's "Date of Birth" is 
1_0 / 1_0_0_1_0 / 1_0_0_0 / 1_1_1
= 2/18/87

... My SISTER's "Date of Birth" is 
1_1 / 1_0_1_0 / 1_0_0_1 / 1_1 
= 3/10/93


-- My "UPPER body"-trainer showed me a few "HAND-movement"-exercises ... for my LEFT-fingers.  ... I "performed" SAID "drills" VERY-WELL.
(... YAY!)


-- JEEZ!  If you make a MISTAKE, ... just ADMIT it!
My "living room"-TV was "goin' HAYWIRE"!  
... The Volume-CONTROL, Channel-CHANGER, "LAST"-button. "GUIDE"-function & even the "POWER"-button wereN'T working!  UUUGGGHHH!  So, I told my Caregiver to call Comcast & to put SAID "call" on "Speaker".  The RUDE/STUPID Comcast-Representative KEPT-BLAMING ME for "BREAKING the remote".  

... DAMN Comcast's "OUTsourcing-Labor" to India!
1) "A GOOD-workman doesN'T BLAME his TOOLS."
2) Learn some FREAKIN'/FLIPPIN' ENGLISH!
3) If your JOB is "Customer-SERVICE/-HELP", then have some COURTESY!

... Speaking-of FOREIGN-languages, THAT's ANOTHER-aspect of my "COGNIZANT-/MENTAL-'REPERTOIRE'" "LOST" in lieu of my DEVASTATING "T.B.I.":
MY "CULTURAL-/LINGUISTIC-diversity".
(.... ALONG-with my ENGLISH-mastery, I WAS SEMI-fluent in TURKISH, Spanish & Japanese.  PLUS, I KNEW "PIECES-of" Latin, German & Italian.)

... I've ACTUALLY-become (MAYBE) MORE-"fluent" in "NUMEROLOGY".  
(... HENCE my RECENT-"DRAMATIC-OBSESSION" with "BINARY"-coding)

... I.e. "Date of Super Bowl L (50)" 
= 1_0 / 1_1_1 / 1_0_0_0_0 
(2/7/16)


-- As is my "'Tuesday-NIGHT'-ROUTINE, I watched the TERRIFIC-show 'Limitless'!  
((... NOT-to-BRAG, ... but I WILL: 
I WAS RIDICULOUSLY-IMPRESSIVE in ALL-of "Academia" ... for ~17 YEARS in an academic-institution.  
(... Mathematical-Mastery, Biotech-"'Baller'-ness", Physics-"Frolicking", "Linguistic-Laughability", "Geographic-Jolliness", "Historical-Haughtiness", etc.)
... "Alliteration aside."(--Peter LaFleur, 'Dodgeball')
I TRULY-HAD ... NO-limits!
(... In OTHER-words, I WAS "limit-LESS".)


-- Additionally, I ENJOYED watching TWO basketball game VICTORIES!
(... ONE was an overtime-"W" by my mom's 'alma mater'--University of Wisconsin, & the OTHER was a "TIGHTLY-contested VICTORY" by the LOCAL Miami Heat.)


...

AMBI-valence

...
-- As I REVIEW the PREPARATORY-work for my "Coding"-class, I remember that I am BOTH 
"intrigued" 
yet 
"inquisitive"
about "BINARY"-noting.  
(... When driving-TO class ... in Miami, the trip takes 
~"1_1_0_0_1_0" minutes.)
(... ~"50" minutes)

... I did NOT know that--ESSENTIALLY--the "base-root" of "BINARY-coding" is 2.  HOWEVER, 'tis read as ONLY "0"s & "1"s.


-- (WARNING) At ~5:00 am, I "UNLEASHED some 'EXCRETORY-disciples of Dump'" ... PRE-"medicinal-'HELP'".
(... YAY for "UN-stimulated" "BOWEL-activity"!)
... THEN, STRANGELY/UN-orthodoxically/A-typically/JOY-ously, I "fell-BACK-asleep" for ~2.17 HOURS.
(... YAY for being more-RELAXED!)
(... THUS, I am CALM ... yet "TIRED"--NOT "SLEEPY".)

... In ALL-LIKELIHOOD, had I JUST-needed to URINATE, I would've NOT been able-to "fall BACK-asleep".
(... 'Tis JUST how MY-attention/-"energy-displacement" functions.)


-- In lieu of LAST NIGHT's Conference Championships in the NFL, I am VERY-EXCITED, that my FAVORITE football team
--the Denver Broncos--WILL play in the Super Bowl!
Yet, I'm VERY-CAUTIOUS, that their OPPONENTS are the only ONCE-beaten Carolina Panthers.
((... Ergo, I'll just-HAFTA HOST a SMALL-"par-TAY", so guests can HELP-me "'com-BAT' MY MOODINESS".
(AUDIBLE-sigh) ''C'est la vie.''))


-- When I "STAND" w/ my walker ... to "WALK", "I'm TORN" between leaning-TOWARD "what's COMFORTABLE" &/or "what's MORE-STABLE--according-to Bio-PHYSICS.

... Today at "NeuroFit 360", two trainers HELPED me "get-over" my TENDENCY-to ONLY "STEP" ... AFTER I've GRABBED something-STABLE/-SECURE to "ANCHOR" my IN-stable, easily-SHIFTING BODY-weight.
-- ACCORDING-to "The Bangles", 'tis "Just Another 'MANIC-MONDAY':

"Manic Monday"

"Six o'clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin' Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can't be late
'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made

It's just another manic Monday
I wish it were Sunday
'Cause that's my fun day
My I don't have to run day
It's just another manic Monday

Have to catch an early train
Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an aeroplane
I still couldn't make it on time
'Cause it takes me so long just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there

It's just another manic Monday
Wish it were Sunday
'Cause that's my fun day
My I don't have to run day
It's just another manic Monday

All of the nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down?
(Last night, last night)
Doesn't it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment's down
He tells me in his bedroom voice
"C'mon honey, let's go make some noise"
Time it goes so fast
(When you're having fun)

It's just another manic Monday
I wish it were Sunday
'Cause that's my fun day
I don't have to run day

It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
'Cause that's my fun day
It's just a manic Monday"

But, I "took it a step FURTHER" ... in MY 

'Frantic FUN-Day'

"Twelve o'clock all-READY.

I just finished watching a SHOW. 

I was doin' lotsa SIT-UPS,
In-order-to 'RE-work' my ABS.
But, I HAFTA be CAREFUL,
'Cuz I caN'T put too-MUCH 'STRESS' on my TUBE!
THAT's a 'HURDLE'
I caN'T JUST 'fix' with some LUBE! 

'Twas just another 'Frantic FUN-DAY'!
I wish it were some-OTHER DAY,
When I can actually RUN-PLAY!
DoN'T I get ONE-SAY?!
'Twas just another 'Frantic FUN-DAY'!

Have-to APPLY some TRIG!
Gotta WALK before I can RUN.
I YEARN-to 'SCARF food-down' like a PIG!
Only THEN, will I truly-be 'The ONE'.
'Cuz it's been so-LONG, since I actually-TASTED some 'TOST'*!
Blame it on my NERVES!
But, my BRAIN's metaphorically-"THERE"**!

'Twas just another 'Frantic FUN-DAY'!
I wish it were some-OTHER DAY,
When I can actually RUN-PLAY!
DoN'T I get ONE-SAY?!
'Twas just another 'Frantic FUN-DAY'!

Of ALL my 'TREKS',
WHY did my car-tire HAFTA pick THAT-DAY
To ex-PLODE?!
(That day, THAT day)

Doesn't it MATTER
That I've ALWAYS-been 'giving with TIME'?!
MY spare-TIME's UP,
As I doN'T 'TALK' nearly as MUCH.
I YELL at MYSELF, ''C'mon, dude.  STAND-UP!''
NOW, 'TIME' goes by SSSLLLOOOOOOOWWW!
('Cuz I RARELY have-FUN)

'Twas just another 'Frantic FUN-DAY'!
I wish it were some-OTHER DAY,
When I can actually RUN-PLAY!
DoN'T I get ONE-SAY?!

'Twas just another 'Frantic FUN-DAY'!
I wish it were some-OTHER DAY,

When I can actually RUN-PLAY!
'Twas just another 'Frantic FUUUNNN-DAY'!"

(INSPIRATION -- 'Here WITHOUT You' 
BY "Three Doors Down")

A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same

But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face

I'm here without you, baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you, baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you, baby

But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only you and me, yeah.

The miles just keep rollin'
As the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go, oh, yeah, yeah

I'm here without you, baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you, baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you, baby

But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight, girl, its only you and me

Everything I know, and anywhere I go (oh whoa)
It gets hard but it won't take away my love (oh whoa)
And when the last one falls
When it's all said and done
It gets hard but it wont take away my love, whoa, oh, oh

I'm here without you, baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you, baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you, baby

But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight, girl, it's only you and me


(MY version:  
'Steady Without You')

"Seven years have made me OLDER,
Since the last time I recall my steady-GALLOP. 
My DAMAGED-nerves have made me COLDER,
But, 'tis NOT with ALL, I am so sen-sat-TIHV!

But, all the MUSCLE I have LOST
Must RE-build now, as I STRUH-guhl to 'walk' ah-LOHN.

STEH-DEE with-OUT you, LEGGIES!
But, I still 'message you' through my LONELY-MIND.
I exer-CISE you, LEGGIES.
And, I TRY-to 'TEST-you' ALL-the-TIME!
STEH-DEE with-OUT you, LEGGIES!

But, you're STILL 'WITH ME' as my LIMBS.

GROSS-smells--e.g. FECES, Body-ODOR & BAD-perfume are easIER-scents to DETECT, 'cuz they're--generally--more-POTENT.
(  : (  )

-- I'm NOT being CONCEITED!  

I am MERELY-stating a LEGITIMATE-/"ACCURATE"-OBSERVATION!

(About MYSELF:)

"TRYING-to UNDERSTAND SOME-people is like ...

TRYING-to SMELL the COLOR 'NINE'."

-- My housemate SEMI-"taught me" HOW to write/type "BINARY-coding" as KIND-of a "PREPARATORY-lesson" for my UPCOMING "Computer-PROGRAMMING"-class.
(... 'Twas ENLIGHTENING!  ... But, I'm DEFINITELY-gonna NEED some FURTHER-tutelage on "0"s &"1"s .)

-- ME--INNER-soliloquoy: 

"C'mon, dude!  You're BETTER than this!"

My mom "SENSES my THOUGHTS" ... based-on the FRUSTRATION on my face:

"You CAN DO this, A.J.!  ''Don't THINK you CAN.  KNOW you CAN.'"

(--Morpheus, 'The Matrix')


-- LIVE in "the NOW".
PLAN for "LATER".
((... "SOAK-up" the PRESENT-moment(S)!
''C'est la vie.''))
