PizzaShaman’s journal - Ongoing

Thank you for asking!

I’ve been considering the question since you asked, in between the goings on. Wife’s grandmother passed away a week and a half ago, so that has affected the family.


Stressed!

Daughter #2’s car wouldn’t start last Friday, messing up her party plans. The boyfriend did the driving instead, and he tried to jump start it on Saturday. I tried to get it going by jumping the battery myself on Sunday, but no dice. Thankfully our mechanic is on the corner of our block and he was able to get it in and fixed on Tuesday.

Ever since I tried jumped her car, my vehicle had been having its car alarm going off at random times throughout the night. Tuesday night into Wednesday was bad, as I got ill again after one of the alarm episodes. Headache, nausea, minor fever, vomiting and diarrhea. A fun time. I called off work again yesterday, unfortunately.

The passing of Wife’s grandma was somewhat expected as she was 90. She had been in lots of pain recently and was in the hospital at the time getting checked out for it. My wife had visited her the day before she passed, thankfully. I’ll note here that my wife made it a point to visit her grandparents on weekends I work in January of 2022, and had been faithful to it ever since then.

So, everything involved with the passing of a family member was on deck this past week.

Wife was also asked by her grandmother a couple months back if she (wife) would sing at her (Gram) funeral. Wife agreed. Wife was not sure how it was going to go and was stressed about the prospect of ‘messing up’ during the service. She did good.


Blessed!

I think it may be the Alchemist/PRom combo, but I’ve gotten a great deal of information regarding myself and my wife from further exploration into Human Design and a few insightful synastry reports.
It’s crazy to see some of my experiences with her summed up into a few impactful paragraphs. A great deal of clarity.

I was uncertain if Rowvember was going on or not at work, as I had yet to see an announcement in the company email. Thankfully it was, yesterday! I would still row during November, but I wanted the competition.

BDD was received and spun up earlier this week. :smiley: This morning I felt really good so I asked my wife if she was interested in a quickie, and she was. I was more aware of the physical sensations during sex, and I could feel the NDE activated in muh brain as well.


Well, a sight better then, “I’m good, how are you?” !

Sorry.

I’m glad there are blessings in your life.

What are you looking forward to most about Rowvember?

Is your wife listening to anything from SC? What about your kid(s)?

No need.

Same! I remember when I couldn’t see such things present in my life. A not so great time, for a very long time. Over now.

Being done with it. :smiley: Rowing every day is tiring and adds up, and I feel older this year in general.

I want to win it two years in a row; to be that 'back to back champ" :rofl:

I feel good about the custom I put together for this. I’m interested in seeing my before and after pics, since I didn’t take them last year.

I’m hoping to get my 10k under 40 minutes by the end of the challenge.

Wife stack is currently Alchemist Stage 1, Primal Romance, and Love Bomb for Humanity. She listens MWF, two titles per day, two plays per title per week. Wife is usually open to trying out things I am into or that I find, and enjoys how she feels running subs versus when she doesn’t.

The children do not. My oldest and middle child are of age, and could well benefit from some Genesis(:Mogul!). My son is still a bit young, but has expressed interest, sincere at least regarding Gaming Mastery X3! I believe he is interested in the social subs as well.

Late night thinkin’

a BDD result?

My wife made known to me what she wanted sexually, verbally , during the act.

Thank you Sub Club!

Since I started listening to BDD, each sexual encounter I have had with my wife has been exquisite. I am uncertain what to credit for the increased awareness of sensation on my end and higher levels of engagement and desire on hers. NDE? PRom? Her listening to PRom? I do not know and my brain does not have any answers at this time.


  • A student told me he felt like calling me “PizzaWizard” because I conjure up such good pizza! :rofl:

  • Had an event today, so a few hundred guests more in additional to the normal weekend crowd for lunch. I had prepared in advance; I premade a bunch of pizza yesterday and it paid off with lots of good feedback in front of my management. :smiley:

  • I have found myself initiating more conversations with my children. I’m not the nurturing type so this is unusual, as are the thoughts of seeing if my mother in law needs help with anything?!?

  • A review of the initial document that lead me to Human Design yielded new insights into relationships between myself, my children, and some of my co-workers. Hmmm. I was about to type something about going over old documents; felt like it was flowing from my subconscious. WEIRD!

Time to bust out some listening before the row:

I may listen to BDD afterwards.

Time to row!

I was curious and weighed myself after this row, and I had lost 2.8 lbs. I had perspired a lot during the workout, sure, but that’s like a quart of water!

I was also pleased to have gotten this done in under an hour, given that it’s been a while since I’ve rowed this distance.

Rowvember 5th!

I was already out and got my vote submitted. Woooo

At least the lines were short and moved steadily. I’ve had previous experiences where voting took forever.

5 minutes of Lets ROW before the Row today! Today, and every 5th day after, will be a 10k row day. Hopefully I will see improvement on that time. It’s been around 45 minutes during my 12.5k rows that I hit the 10k mark. I am aiming to bring it under 40 minutes. I will hit 360k meters for the month with this rowing plan.

I’m thinking I’ll do 10 minutes of BDD after the row.

Edit:
Today’s Listening:
5 min Let’s ROW (Before workout)
10 min BDD (After workout)

A portion of my natal chart that I was reading-

Sun blending with Ascendant
(power = 7.04 and this aspect is neutral)
You have a sunny disposition and a nature that is proud and honorable. You do not stoop to
low or mean acts because that is not becoming of you. You have a strong vital essence and
you radiate vitality to those in your immediate circle. You are a natural leader and can do well
in positions of management or authority. You are willing to help those in need and you give of
yourself in a generous manner.

You have a strong vital essence and you radiate vitality to those in your immediate circle.

This jumped out at me tonight. I have Synergy: Preordained Vitality in Let’s ROW, and Radiating Health is part of that. I just started that custom very recently. I obtained that synastry chart fairly recently as well. I find it unusual that something on that natal chart would relate to a sub that I am running now.


One of my bosses discussed the possible promotion with me again today, fleshed out a bit more of what the duties would be. While it makes sense from their standpoint, I’m not so certain. I would have to give up my work routine and be more engaged with my coworkers much more often. I currently spend at least 75% of my shift working solo at my station, and that would change. I wouldn’t interact with the students much at all really, working in the back kitchen. The quality of our pizza product would drop drastically as it would be switched to parbaked crusts entirely, not the hand stretched product I serve. etc.

Yeah I don’t think I’ll be taking it.

Still feeling the same way this morning.

  • I’ve been getting information every day. Feels like a RoM/Alchemist blend of occurrences. Found one video two or three days ago on my HD variables…for free! It had been previously locked behind a paywall. :smiley:

  • I’ve noticed it has become far easier to not bust a nut during sex. New since EmpD.

I have been having the thought “I am a force of nature.” pop up lately, randomly and during times of …i want to say comparison, myself to others.

Just now, I found that referenced in the copy to EmpD!

At least I know the source now. I have been enjoying the feeling the thought provided. :smiley:
