Spring Forward
My friend Vic in LA calls it “stewing.†I’m doing it. It was Sunday morning, and I promise, you already know what it is. Stewing is when you set your alarm for 8:00 or 9:00 or even 10:00 on a weekend morning with grand plans for a workout or doing laundry or even some sort of religious service but instead you end up staying in bed hours after, basically laying there and well, “stewing.†It’s easy to do, especially now at the end of this long cold winter. You’re probably hung over; whether emotionally, physically or from ingested chemicals and turning over and over in your mind all your mistakes, from the night before, and probably, your entire adult life. Laying there in the cocoon of my bed, I came to the point of actually getting up after going over a new game plan in my mind. Springtime is coming after all, and with this upcoming changing season, no more of this ridiculous behavior I’ve been engaged in recently. I declare: Things Will Be Different. From Here on Out They Will Be Different (and I really really mean it this time).
I’ve got a plan to help you anticipate your own personal springtime as well as the actual one scheduled to hit New York City any day now.
