hi! what have you been keeping yourself busy with these days?
*muses*
breathing. you know, inhalation. exhalation.
it's quite a laborious job, keeping my days and nights fully occupied. 13 breaths a minute. 780 breaths an hour. 18,720 breaths a day. sometimes faster. sometimes slower. it helps to fill my lungs with oxygen and keeps me alive. a hobby with a really useful purpose, i say. sometimes, when the job gets too much to handle, you know all those inhaling and exhaling is tiresome on the chest, i try to cheat the system and hold my breath a little longer than usual, breathing out only when my face is almost turning blue, saving a breath or two along the way. less wear and tear.
usually, it's an easy peasy job. i don't think much about the routine. sometimes though, a deep breath brings about a hacking cough, from that month-long cold i brought back from japan. imported stuffs are more prestigious and usually last longer, you know.
anyway, last saturday, i exhaled into some blue and red balloons. for the not-so-little one's birthday party. i had it easy. i blew up 6 balloons, mr. hubby blew up 34, his lips also turning blue but for another reason. cheapo balloon dye. should have been a combination of blue and red, i thought. barney purple. how attractive. but it was plain unattractive blue. maybe the red dye is imported. anyway, that went well. i stored some breaths in the 6 balloons to be used later, when i'm lazy exhaling. turned out i forgot to bring the balloons home from the party.
yesterday, mr. hubby figured i could do with some heavy breathing. the healthy type. not that the activity you have in mind is not healthy. the tormentor goaded me onto the threadmill. *pout* it was there that i learned i was not as fit as i thought i was. running for only 1 minute??!! there is something seriously warped about that. maybe huffing and puffing is not my thing. i prefer inhaling and exhaling, slowly, naturally.
well, as you can see, inhaling and exhaling has kept me pretty busy. i'm off for now, doing more of the same. toodle doo!

What do you mean the heavy breathing i have in mind is not healthy. Health experts have proven that 1/2 and hour of that kind of heavy breathing that I love burns off 740 calories. That is equivalent to slow jogging or brisk walking on the threadmill.
Now which would you choose? 1/2 hour in heaven or 2 hours in hell
