as good as it gets

Started by McKekS in Chit-Chat

it appears to me that my daily life was way too good for me. So i decided that in order to make me absolutely happy i need to start attending the gym.
Now twice a week i go to the place with the evil, inquisition-kind equipment to torture myself. The rest of the week i suffer from muscle pain.

when everything is so good, you just go and think of the way to make it so bad?!
Hmm…is this normal or is this just me??? :D

If you are getting muscle pain like that, you need to make sure you warm up correctly and stretch before using the equipment…

gym is not the point i wanted to discuss.
it seemed to be a good exapmple, obviouxly not

The point is: it appeares to me that people are inventing some shit for themselves, if everything is going great.
there are lots of examples coming to my mind.

e.g. Never seen pit at the bad shows. but when the concert is good and you feel fucking great, you get into the pit and for the next week you are covered with bruises.
What for? What was not satisfying you? why the hell did you get in that pit?

If things are going really well, why create something that will make everything shit?

Kind of like “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”.

I think it’s more likely that all these things you would do anyway, but when your life/day is crap you just can’t really face up to the effort.
It’s not ‘fuck, things are going well. Better screw something up somehow.’
It’s:
‘fuck, yeah! I can take it!’

Doesn’t that make more sense?

But sometimes its a good kind of sore. Tattoos hurt like hell, but they still rock. Hangovers are nightmares, and we know that, but we still want the fun the night before.

Most good things require some form of sacrifice, or else they cannot be truely fun.

I sort of gave up apart from the odd one about three years ago. But in the last four months of being in Oz I got back into it and I remebered how much i enjoyed it. But i don’t want to start smoking again, and it helps that I back at home as I think my parents are that pleased with me doing it in my room or in the garden. But i do know waht you mean about weird dreams.

Well - my parents are away for 2 weeks at the weekned which meand my brother is sure to ‘import’ some produce…

Its kinda hard cause I dont really wanna do it but it is so tempting to sit there, stick on the DVD player, crack open a beer and light up a spliff…

I think I am gonna rely on the missus to keep me on the straight and narrow. :D

I saw a munchkin take on a beer up Aussie, man that was some good gear that day;)

My parents have never minded that much me smoking weed as they think it’s better than booze as i won’t get in a fight. But i think it’s unfair on them that i do smoke as none of my family smokes and my brother is straight edge. But i have given up all other drugs so a spliff now and then wont hurt.

I know what you mean, Cerals were always my munchie food. Another reason not to smoke is that I’m trying to lose a bit of weight and get fit again. And in my mums house there is always cakes and food in general:)

Smoking, whether it’s normal cigarettes or weed, has always tasted like shit to me.
