Should I Move?
Well, the answer is yes, but it’s still important to meditate on these things before being impulsive. Because previous management didn’t raise rent enough, rent will be going up from $860/month ...
At least I still like jalapeños.
I wanted to start a new routine this month, but that never happened. I mean more than lifting. Change the small daily habits that pervade. Instead I got sick, and have taken yet another break fro...
I bid you stand, Men of the West.
I’m so tired of seeing penises that were mutilated at birth. Generations of boys flippant about it. “Oh, I’m fine.” You don’t even know what you are missing. YOU WERE AN INFANT WHEN IMMENSE PAIN ...
Sick days, what's that?
Two days ago: 101.6F. Might have been higher, but I didn’t even think to check until I was chatting with wife and she mentioned she and her son were melting. I just assumed I was lethargic and...
The Fall of the Berlin Wall.
That’s it. That’s the delimiter. I was but six when the wall fell. Which means. My middle school texts were out date. They had East and West Germany. It doesn’t take much to connect the dots. Ger...
Just a couple pounds.
Down the road, I want to have video of me pulling four plates. So, brought my Nokia to the gym today to beta test recording myself. While I have zero video editing skills, well. Gotta start somew...
Knickers.
So, as part of an Amazon binge, I invested in some new knickers. It was either earlier this year or last year that I went deep-diving into Amazon to find new knickers. Okay, it actually wasn’t ...
Today is a good day.
Tasted some pussy for the first time in 2.5 years, complete with her happy ending. Scored my one year sobriety coin. Had a great workout, rows @ 205 lbs and inclines @ 135 lbs for sets today. Din...
Rumors of my assimilations were exaggerated.
I think I’m back to normal. It’s clear now that I hit overtraining. It’s an overused term in lifting, and difficult to achieve. But. The signs/symptoms were there. It’s not something is sho...
The Green Ranger is Dead.
Suicide. Not much older than I am. I don’t have answer. Only to fight even harder. Jason David Frank. May your agony be at peace.
Think about it. No current validations can change what was expected of you.
Hey, I pulled 3.5 plates.
So when I say to myself “I guess I’ll ease up on my training”, this is apparently what happens. Ooops. Like, I’m going to take the next 2 days off so I have time to write for NaNoWriMo because u...
Just some motivation for next year.
“If I can survive Calc III, I can survive Smolov.” Been saying to myself that I’ll run smolov jr next year to bring up my squat. Because bigger squat = bigger deadlift. And we know how much pla...
Why I Lift.
A: To get off the toilet when I’m 70. 2: To give the best piggyback rides. D: To silence any physical and emotional inadequacy I might feel. That’s about it. I don’t know about you, but my Gra...
#bestbelllife
The air was crisp when I stepped outside to check the mail. It caught me almost off-guard. I work evenings, so I’m used to darting out in the morning or early afternoon. I’m not into the dress...
Another "if she doesn't get it, she's too young for me."
Far worse things I could be doing with my spare time.
I'll be so positive short of having HIV.
So, you’ve played a lot of RPGs, right? There’s a trope(?) that Chrono Trigger and Dragon Quest VIII nailed. The penultimate boss as a gatekeep to the Open World. You think the penultimate boss...
Contractual Obligation.
So, Melinda was texting me yesterday about how she couldn’t get the car she wanted without a cosigner. And me being me, I half-heartenedly said something like yeah, I’d help you. Uh, oops, she c...
Even when I'm getting paid, I don't force smiles.
I think I just got “you should smile more”-ed. Ha ha. I hit up subway yet again. Had a coupon 2-for-1 on footlongs. I do love twelve inches in my mouth. Kid making my ‘wiches clearly had a t...
The things you own end up owning you.
I grew up on a bilevel house, so it’s a little funny for me to say this but. I don’t really want nor need a big house. Why exactly do people want a big house to live in? Status, maybe. Space ...
Act Your Wage.
I just love this phrase. Because yes, do your job. But also, only do your job. It must also be noted that some companies will wage-starve employees into quitting. Cut hours progressively in t...
Does anybody else get ball-shaving ads? I do mean that literally. The LAWNMOWER 5000 or MANSCAPED. They’re written in the style I would have used 20 years ago as a parody, and I don’t know how ...
Find your microcycle, I like to say. Though, at times, it’s a matter of observing it. We all have a cycle, one way or another. The repeated actions we perform, sometimes with thought and somet...
Grandma Gamer.
Picture it, Upstate NY, 1988. You’re visiting your Grandma. It’s 40 acres on top of a hill. A barn, a chicken coop, two dogs, a pond, a back field, some woods. In the middle bedroom, there’s ...
12 Steps Revision.
Naturally, I do my best thinking when improvised. Related to improvising: Years ago, Liz dared me to rewrite Dante’s Inferno as a children’s story. I was stumped. Then again, I have only p...
