Just finished watching Seven Swords. We had the pleasure of watching this at the cinema a couple of years ago and it’s still pretty good now. It’s definitely one of the better martial arts type films to come out for the past few years, although it doesn’t have the visual style of House of Flying Daggers. It’s taken a bit of time to come onto Sky and dvd though.
Could well be a quiet week this one, NZ vs England test match starts tomorrow, so I could well be getting quite a decent amount of reading in while falling asleep to the cricket. Which won’t be a bad thing because I seem to have slipped back into a low energy mode. I switch between being hyperactive and what could probably be described as hypo-active.
I always struggle to understand the lack of energy, as I usually spot the signs early and go for countermeasures :-). Countermeasures that usually involve caffeine and other things that are laden with energy but also extremely bad for you. I’ve eaten enough to keep me going today but I’m still in the low energy mode. Must be all the driving over the weekend, although those countermeasures will cause problems of their own due to me crashing after the glucose boost has worn off.
I’ve gotten used to my high energy/low energy cycles. I’ve learned to enjoy the hyperactive sessions when I get them, it can be a rush as long as I don’t get carried away, forget myself and upset the wrong people by not thinking what I’m saying or doing. The low energy times are tougher, because I have less energy available to kick me back into being active. Kinda like a vicious circle … However, I’m learning a few tricks to give me a mental incentive to get back to a more active mode 🙂
PS Starting to get twitchier again already – talking about problems and talking through them can help to get you on the way to solving those problems. Which has been the most useful thing about this blog 🙂 Plus there’s also knowing that I’ve made a special couple of people very happy this weekend 🙂
