Aw yeah, if you already know your rolls and breakfalls, Aikido is a great thing to check out. At lower levels, the “attacks” are basically two-person katas, usually involving escaping from grabs. At upper levels they do have something called randori but even then it’s all very structured. Aikido gets made fun of sometimes for not having a “live” adversary who’s actively trying to beat you. I’ve read there are some dojos that do competitive Aikido, but I think that’s rare.

When someone asks you questions, it’s also an opportunity to ask them questions back, to find out if you’re heading for an environment you don’t wanna be in.

• THEM: Is work/life balance important to you?
• YOU: So, obviously my family’s important to me. I always do my job, though. What kind of expectations to you have here?
• THEM: Well… (look at each other nervously. look up at the cameras monitoring them.) We’re expected to make work a priority…

In the martial arts, Tai Chi is the obvious answer.

Consider Aikido. It’s generally more like choreographed exercises. A lot of dojos are very understanding of physical constraints. Check with your doctor, it might be good way to gently test your limits. Plus, it’s important to know how to fall safely.

Evil Genie: “Granted.” It starts to rain. It never stops.

The ghosts are the game. The cats are game-masters. That’s why terrible things happen to us if we displease them.

You know how cats are sitting still staring at something, and you’re like “how can that cat sit still so long and stare at something?” It’s this. The entire world is a game to them.

Nice try, ICE.

Boston is so awesome. You didn’t mention the museums, historical places, concerts, festivals, theaters, hundreds of little cafes and restaurants, bookstores, art galleries, several dozen universities each with events open to the public. Taking the T (public transportation) over to the Boston Common to see what’s going on, then walking through downtown, maybe stop at Fanueil Hall for a snack, then go all the way to the North End to a restaurant. Oh gods I’m homesick and I only lived there like 8 years.

I always imagined that ADHD was just our minds tuned to being hunter-gatherer survivors, and thus not suited for a sedentary office environment.
