Made dinner and dessert for my friends tonight while we played Rock Band and watched The Color Out of Space.
Hung up Xmas lights on my patio before they came over. First time I've ever put up *my* lights at *my* place.
All of it was small, quaint...And super fulfilling.

I made them food and friend's wife gave me a (pretty slick) haircut!
Feels like a solid trade and pretty cool to not have to go out for any of it.
I've been grinding RB drums (I have a hard time playing any games that aren't rhythm games) and I'm getting pretty damn good.

I'm legit done habitually smoking weed. That lasted WAY too long in my life. The evidence is clear that my state of being is drastically improved without it.
Between that, waking up at 9, yoga 5x a week, finally working out again (which yoga makes possible) I'm feeling *Good*

Working on footcatches (who the fuck decided this was a thing jugglers should do?!)
My 5 ball cascade is slowly cleaning up.
And there's a far more significant, ironic, & (I think) hilarious ego-boosting aspect of my life flourishing at the moment too but I don't wanna jinx it.

The sobriety has been a boon if, for nothing else, I'm keeping a dream journal and actually sticking to my Calea regimen. I'm getting slowly more and more lucid and remembering more and more details by the week.
Still intend to occasionally "supplement" my life with lysergamides but the goal has always been to reach a state where their use is very infrequent, approached with intent, and rooted in a spiritual practice.
More and more serious about the last 2.

I've been taking reprogramming my mind a lot more serious lately and it really doesn't take very long at all to see results if you're consistent.
Taking full advantage of neurogenic states to absorb positive messaging and practice some spiritual disciplines is paying off.

The lifestyle I've been building since I moved into this apartment is one I'm increasingly proud of.
All the pieces were there.
I had *too many* pieces.
Not enough boundaries.
Social pruning helped.
It hurt at 1st.
But nature abhors a vacuum.
Needed to make room for new/better.

I don't care what anyone says, writing poetry is a form of magick. I do not think it's any coincidence that my psycho-emotional tailspin coincided with my abandoning that practice.
It has always been a source of power and manifestation of will for me.
Like riding a bike.

Lastly, as a certain shibe here recently commented...I do think there's something to the idea that creating and being in tune with The Creator go hand in hand.
I think I'll probably always be a heretic & suffer some for it, but I'm letting more light in & getting more light out.
