More Fun

Everybody wants to have fun. I want to have extra fun. More fun can be achieved with preparation. When opportunity knocks, you won't have to knock it. Take today, for example. It was a powder day, a bluebird powder day. My skis were waxed. My laundry was clean, the vehicle was sufficiently fueled. I ate right, not only in the morning but all throughout the day before to assure maximum performance for the expected day's skiing. I got lots of sleep.
About sleep; I have noticed that like that last song you heard on the radio before getting out of the car, the last tv show I watch before bed influences my sleep. If I watch kung fu or James Bond then I thrash all night fighting my nightmares. I have also noticed that when I fall asleep watching comedy or a show with a laugh track that my night's sleep is restful and i wake up in a better mood.
We are victims to our lifestyles. My machines train me. My phone taught me to do a new trick called 'making sure the phone is in the charger correctly every night'. My skis have taught me to wax them. My body... Chores suck but life sure is easier when you get them done when they are supposed to be done. That reminds me, gotta switch the laundry.
