It's been a long day but a good one. No nap today--felt like just going on even up to now. Energy flows! Almost the Spring Equinox! Time for things to grow.

Did alright in today's C&M class. It was not an easy session--I felt like I was going to the edge every time. But, it went well and I'm feeling good from having been there.

Had a major flushing/turning red episode after eating some lunch. I only had two bananas! So either it's the sugars in things (sugar in the banana) or possibly something to do with my body noticing it's getting close to medication time (it could be that ebb of dopamine just prior to my time to take medication is causing some kind of reaction). Will keep watching and seeing what happens. I think it's my immune system going out of control and reacting to everything (foods, exercise, medication, and such).

GH asked me about a scene in a movie where a guy did an impersonation of Cary Grant in a scene from North by Northwest. I couldn't think of any such theme, at the time. When I got home I did a Google search (with some flailing of what keywords to use) and finally popped a reference to the movie--Arizona Dream. I've seen that film about 2-3 times but no memory of the scene. Things fade away! What can I say?

Watched a film this evening--Aurora Borealis. True to form, my random pick of the flicks, had me pick up this one that centers around an elderly man who has PD (and a few other ailments). It was a feel bad/feel good film about a jumble of family ties around missing parents, illnesses, old age, finding love, making decisions (hard ones), and so on. It was a TV drama stretched some to make it slowly unravel and explore so many issues in one slice of family life. It was difficult for me to watch.

I cranked up the video camera (Face Time) and had the strange experience of seeing my face appear on the screen--as if I were looking in a mirror (Alice where are you?)! I haven't yet figured out how to make a video or link to someone else's video feed. Lot's to do but not tonight! PD dance and resistance training sessions tomorrow! Oh, yeah!
