I Had a Thought

Good morning, Readers!

This gorgeous piece is by deviantart.com user mike-nash. Isn't it pretty? I want this one my wall. Anyway, click the image to see more of the artist's work!
Guys, I had a blog post planned for today.  I swear I did.  But it's gone.  My tired brain has forgotten it.

And I am tired.  I went to the gym this morning. Unlike yesterday, I did not forget my shoes, and so I did my hour of cardio.  I didn't push hard, but I did it.  It's a bloody miracle, by the way.  I had my arse handed to me last night during my pre-martial arts workout.  Then it was two hours of martial arts.  I was tired and sore, and I went to the gym all the same.

I'm calling it a win.

But alas, that means my tired brain forgot what it was I wanted to talk about today.  So you get this ramble instead.

Sorry?

Oh, humble brag, I have been rewatching episodes of 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown (a mash up of a British comedy panel show bases on statistics, and Countdown, an anagram and mathematics game).  It combines two of my favourite things; British comedians, and brain work.

I am shit at this game, depressingly.

But I play along as a way of keeping my brain flexible and active.  Yesterday, I managed to get a nine-letter word (the highest, worth double points) during one of the word games.  Looking back, it's a bit silly how excited I was about getting it.  But I got it, and I'm celebrating all the same.

Here were the letters:

O R T E S E P R T

My word? PROTESTER.

I was proud.

Annnnnnyway.

Oh, here's a non-sequitur, can Chuck Wendig please come out with a cookbook?  I just want to cook from recipes written like this.

And now I've wasted enough of everyone's time.  I'm off to write more and play more games.

​Ciao!
