Re-Launch

Mark it, July 25, 2016.  We are now on what Roddenberry would have called an 'ongoing mission'...to see what there is to see and learn what there is to learn and do what needs to be done and to keep a running journal of successes and failures, which are just future successes in need of current adjustments.  it's going to be kind of fun.  but it's going to be rather emotional as well.

not going to get off into a lot of melodrama about the end of the Orbit, and this will continue under that title, because it is an orbit of sorts.  but the ellipse of this journey is much wider in its dimensions and we may have to utilize some theories of relativity to keep from getting too much older before we make it to where we need to be.

but we will start with some parameters.

the video that is loaded is for a book that is going to get my daily attention.  it is the prologue from my new 'story poem', or epic poem as i like to think it.  which is what Waiting for Jesus is and what The Land of Evolon will be.  it will be done next month, and i intend to put it up as an item for sale on Kindle, but it is also going to be one of the earliest offerings from Z-Phyles, which i also intend to have up and running early next year, or sometime next year anyway.  

i want to see this through.  i think that was what i learned from the Orbit of origin, is that you have to get your bearings, hold on until you can get your coordinates locked, and then you leave orbit and start on your journey.  well, i want to publish books.  i want to write, edit, format, design and have printed books for myself and other authors under the Z-Phyle logo and imprint.  and the only way that's going to happen is for me to get to work on it.  and thus i shall.

as well, there are things that are up in the air, and i have to admit some sadness, that in order for me to move forward i have to leave so many things behind.  but a captain of a hot air balloon cannot lament having to cut loose a sandbag, regardless of how personable he may find that sandbag to be.  no one, mind you, is permanently dismissed.  but i am going to fly, and either i am going to be supported or i am going to be alone, but i will not be burdened with the worry for someone's state of mind who may not have my best interest at heart.  

today was a day started with prayer.  and i got my ass up and into my gym clothes.  i brewed a pot of coffee and had a cup and some water before the gym.  i worked the machines and i came home and had breakfast and got back to writing and making the video posted up top.  

breakfast was a salmon croquet, a fried egg and rice.  lunch was a chicken club sandwich and a spinach salad and dinner was two chicken fajitas.  a bit light on veggies, and i need some more fruit in my life, but i am full and not hungry and that's what eating is about.  

my knee is bothering me, my shoulder as well.  i don't know what's wrong with my knee, but i'm going to find out when i go walking tomorrow morning.

i splashed in a bath and rinsed off the funkiness, to the extent that such an artist as myself can attain that state, and i am now ready to watch a bit of television and prepare for sleep so i can do tomorrow with confidence and surety.  

this is going to be good.  thanking my Creator for a successful launch, and we'll update tomorrow.
