now that we're settled in

number 2! i thought for sure i was just going to sign up for this thing, write once, then discard it as someithing i'll get to later. like many things i do in life. there always seems to be something better to do. no matter what i'm doing at the moment. i'm sure most people are like that. my brother put it great once in regards to cellphones. "whenever you're with someone and the cell goes off, you ignore the person you're with to talk to the person on the phone. but if the person you were talking to on the phone was standing right beside you, they would be ignored to talk to someone else if the phone rings." ya get it? hope so.

one thing that's been on the backburner is running. i've been getting a bit of a belly since i've turned 30 and quit smoking. i used to be the guy who was skinny no matter what i ate. now i'm a little self conscious of it. that's where the running comes in. i keep telling myself "when it starts getting warmer out" but i know i'm only saying that to put it off where as if there was a little more dedication then the weather wouldn't mean shit. i'd be out there trotting along the pavement, sweating up a storm and i'd be very happy doing it. instead it seems like a burden that i'll have to bear soon. unless i get comfortable with my pudge and fudge.

i guess that's it for now. i don't intend that anyone will read these. it's really just a place for me to vent and talk about shit that others (i assume) don't want to listen to. but shit, if you've read this far, good on ya. thanks.....oh and manderson, go back to bed! hahaha.

  4. I started running last summer. It doesn't take that much effort, just do it. In fact, go outside right now and start running. See? You did it. Now do it again tomorrow. Don't go too fast or you will die in about 30 seconds and don't worry about the weather, you will start to sweat in about 3 minutes. The more you do it, the quite quickly and distinctly farther and faster you can go and that feels pretty cool.

    Congrats on the quitting.

  5. you're absolutely right trish'r. it's 8am and i read this and immediately started getting motivated to go out there and conquer it. then i looked outside and saw that there was a fricken snowstorm at the end of march? crazy. but you are toally right. i started running last year but it didn't take because i smoked and it just sucked too much. now my lungs are a lot cleaner and healthier and i have more drive than i used to. thanks trish. i fucking miss your wisdom sometimes.
    are you on here? i wanna follow you.

  6. I am not. I naturally assume that no one gives a flying, so I keep shit like this to a minimum. Maybe I should. I have been working on a website for about a year, was going to put ramblings on that whenever I got it done. Maybe I should get off my arse and take a leap into the snow too! (Metaphorically of course, it is sunny and 16 degrees in London right now...you know what i mean)

    Right. You start running and I'll start writing. Tomorrow. Deal?
