Yada yada yada...
I'm in the mood to write something today, but I don't know what. So I guess I'm just going to ramble in this entry for a bit. I swam 1500 yards this morning. It was my first swim workout since my triathlon a week and a half ago. That was pretty cool. I hopped on EoFF to check how the contest is going. It's going good. I checked out the Eyes on FF does Post Secret or whatever it's called and I was happy and sad from reading the entries. It amazes me how many people live their life in lies or don't fully express themselves. Maybe it's because I'm older now, but I don't bother keeping my feelings hidden that much anymore. I do if it's just an opinion that might hurt someone else, but if I'm in a situation that I don't want to be or feel that I'm doing something just to please someone, I stop it right then and there. You learn that there's no benefit to living life that way and you'll never be happy. You also learn that you can't be everyone's friend and you're going to piss people off eventually. Some of those folks you'll reconcile with and others you'll never be able to stand to be around again. Such is life. So surround yourself with activities, people and situations you enjoy and remove those things that bring you down.
I'm still enjoying the CK contest. It was a little slow waiting for round four and I feel that it sucked some of the energy from the event. Round four's task was great in theory but I don't think it was thought all the way through. I've already said my piece on why I thought it was botched and how to fix it at EoFF, so I'm not going to bother here, since only EoFFers read my journal anyways(or at least I like to pretend that people read this).
I learned how to pill my cat without him resulting in peeing on himself or biting his tongue, so that's awesome. I've seriously never met a cat that was so stupid. I continually attest that he only has enough brain power to run the vitals in his body. But then again that's pretty awesome for him because every day when he wakes up it's a new adventure exploring the "new" house we wakes up in. I'm just glad he remembers where the litterboxes are.
Wow, that was a lot. I know I said that I wouldn't post lengthy entries, but it seemed fitting today. Thanks for humoring this old man's rambling.
