day 74... living for the moment

together ... a winning team

day 74... And today benrik insisted that i "live for the moment" this sounds quite a vague task im sure you will agree, or at least up until i inform you that the moment i was required to live for was 9:31.22 TO 9:31.23, now the absoloute clarity of the task should be slapping you bluntly in the face .

Thats right, my entire day was to be spent preparing for, and building up to the  afore mentioned second, this i did.

A second really isnt a great deal of time (as you may be aware) and so finding something to fill that moment and not much longer was rather difficult, i had a good think, and eventually arrived at what  may be the absoloute height of pleasure a human being can reach within the bounds of the law, and the moral code i find myself under due to my religion.

 To truly live for the moment one has to be prepared.. and relaxed. And so an hour or so before the crucial moment i took a nice hot shower and tried to unwind. .I got changed and after a sarnie(bacon), as one cant be truly happy on an empty stomach ... i headed for the office and made the neccesary arrangements.

Want to know what i did? well i'll tell you anyway, at the apropriate second i pressed play on the ready queued up computer before me, and saw boro's  final goal against basel...acompanied by ali brownlee  ( the comentator's) exclamation "the greatest comeback since lazarus!!" , while taking the first chug from an ice cold can of coca cola ( other beverages are available)... It may not sound much , but for me this was a truly heavenly moment in the day, 2 of the things i enjoy the most being enjoyed simeltaneously.

So.. i lived for the moment... and i liked it. I encourage you to give it a shot. (coke and boro video optional)
