The other constant for post-holiday winter is dieting. For me, it isn't a new year's resolution (I don't do annual resolutions, per se) but the blunt recognition of additional pounds to shed. I don't diet during the holidays, so January always means a redoubling of effort. Back to tracking, in an iPhone app, every morsel and mile walked, watching portion size, and being mindful about food. It's really not hard, but it does require consistency.
I really like this morning's shuffle selection. A good combination of tunes and styles, serendipitously blended. Andrew Bird is an amazing musician. An indie-folk one-man band. There is a good TED session of him performing that is worth watching, if you are not already familiar with his music.
The Weepies were back this morning, as well, with the title track of their album Happiness:
Got a charger, no cell phone, I can't call out
Unless it's to cry your name out the open window
To a sky that looks right back
And says it's never seen rain
Sometimes you gotta start clean
You gotta begin, not begin again
It's a mean town but I don't care
Try and steal this
Can't steal happiness
