Nah. I’d say I’m normal-stitious, possibly even substitious.

PROMPT: Spree
I’m not a fan of the “spree.” I don’t like a shopping spree and I don’t like a murder spree and I really don’t like a shopping mall shopping / murder spree.

PROMPT: Last Thing
To think of lifting weights as a means of injury prevention, rather than just a means to build strength or power. I picked up this perspective reading Santino DeFranco’s “Fight Ready” (https://wp.me/p1jv7k-fiK.) I haven’t been a fan of weights for many years now and have long preferred yoga, calisthenics, and other (more minimalist) practices, but I can see the scalability advantage of weights as a means to build a robust body.
Although, I hope this prompt uses “last” in the sense of “most recent,” because I very much hope that I am far from — and couldn’t possibly predict — the last (as in “final”) thing I will have learned.

PROMPT: Failure
Daily writing prompt
How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success?
In juggling one must fail a million times to have any hope.
But what is success and what is failure? I’m not sure I know.

PROMPT: Couldn’t Live Without
Digestible non-toxic protein, digestible non-toxic fats, and digestible non-toxic carbohydrates.
Also, water and air, but they are non-commoditized (to a large extent, anyhow.)
Also, certain vitamins and minerals, but they would be subsumed in a good mix of the aforementioned three.
