Ugh. I'm angry and frustrated with myself. I can't find my keys.

It's not like I have a great excuse to call in for work, like pneumonia or a car accident, nope, HEY I'M A DUMAZZ I LOST MY KEYS.

Second time in two consecutive days.

I do this ALL the time.. I'm brilliant.. I just can't keep track of Jack sh*t....

This makes me feel better, actually. I guess nothing's wrong with me, really ... I just lack the key-tracking gene, ha ha.


i HAVE to hang my keys next to the door every time i get home otherwise i'd never be able to find them.

Yeah, but I'm meeting the girl I've been talking to for swimming tonight. So I can't go now and then again in 2 hours. She confuses me at times, times like yesterday...right before I went on my run.

What the what the? "Talking to" like going out with sort of but not? How doth she confuseth you?

That's the confusion for me: I hate the "I'm not ready for a relationship, but I want to hang out all the time; I don't know if I'm attracted to you, but give me a kiss goodnight; and talk to me for a few hours when I'm having a bad day, but if it's a good day you may not hear from me because I'll be out with my friends celebrating" kind of stuff. Maybe I just want things to move along a bit more quickly, or at least feel like there's a direction we're moving in. But it is what it is.

Oh. Well have you actually HAD a conversation like that? And do you ask her to do stuff like for real, or just "hey I'm going to the gym, wanna go?" and stuff? If you don't ask her to set aside time for you, she shouldn't really, ya know? But, if she's just shady then see that and get thee away!


No, we set up times way before hand. She already picked out the race she wants to do with me, in August. I would give you quotes from conversations we've had if this weren't a huge public forum, no offense to anyone, but I'm only willing to put so much out in a public forum.

Awww ... thanks, Lara, Spokes, Schwammie.

 

I found them. They were in my PURSE ... God forbid they be somewhere they SHOULD be ... that's why I couldn't find them. Put keys and wallet in a purse, money in a safe, towels in the bathroom ... you could keep stuff safe away from me forever that way.

If you seen my You Tube Video you'd know I'm a very good guitarist. Certainly good enough to have gone professional as a player, the reason(s) I didn't do it were the inherently insecurity of the music business in general and I really hate being around smoking, and unfortunately, that's still a large part of the art/music worlds. I won a lot of solo awards at jazz festivals in high school, and before every award presentation, I'd *hide*. I hated to fail. The one time I really didn't think I'd get an award, I was correct (and its a huge regret) and it was crushing. I'm still upset I didn't bring away an award from the 1979 Iowa State Jazz Band Championships (we got 2nd place in our class). I'm 46. Is that not ridiculous?

I hate, *hate* to lose. I've broken several board game boards and broken the pieces because I hate to lose. So, I don't play board games, I don't play card games, etc. What a lot of people do to 'relax' just cranks me up tighter than an old fashioned $2 wristwatch.

Hell, when I was really interested in college football, it would ruin my entire weekend when my Hawkeyes would lose... I had to basically detach myself completely from college football to keep this from ruining too many fall weekends. Because I would be in a depression over it at least until Tuesday, and that's just nuts.

If I quit racing, I won't work out anymore, because all working out will do is remind me that I'm a failure as an athlete, and I might as well blimp up to 200 pounds and give up. Because exercise is the ONLY thing that's ever worked to help keep my weight down, and I hate doing it just for the sake of exercise. 

I don't know what to say - especially on BT, in TAN of all places.  If you want a lecture, wait till I have a few beers and look me up.....

That being said, I know what it's like.  I have been there.  I get dissapointed with my performance and get down on myself and I don't want to do it, so I don't put in the time to get better, then I get down on myself for not working at it. 

So I'm hard on myself for not being good, and then get mad at myself for not TRYING to get better!  lose/lose.

It's just a downward spiral.  Don't know what I did/do to get out of it.  I just do.....  Maybe it's just that one bit of success.  Like that one perfect drive on the golf course that gets me to come back......

Oh yeah.  My moto?  "Don't sweat the small stuff".  Triathlon in all honesty?  small stuff compaired to health, happiness, and family....

Huh. Well maybe just plant one on her next time you see her and see what happens. I mean, that would end most of the confusion, right?


I'll give that a shot during/after swimming tonight.

Don't feel bad...  I have something much worse that makes me a dumbazz...  For THREE months I forgot to pay a stupid $10 credit card bill..  so now i have late marks on my credit report plus $50 in late fees for a stupid $10 charge..

i could just b*tch slap the hell out of myself some days..

Nice.

yup.. i've got two more similar things going on right now..  i just need someone to run my life for me

Should I assume that the car salesman is busy with other clients --- or does he only have a small but specific role?

yep, got to have a regular place.  whenever, I tell myself, "i'll just put this here and i will remember it" - I will forget

Now that I know that, I pick them right back up and put them where they are SUPPOSED to go....

Sharkie - 2008-05-06 5:32 PM   An email will work just fine... 

Dear Sharkie's PIA boss,

I herby affirm and attest that Sharkie was highly productive today.  In fact, her productivity was so intense that she should given the rest of the week (perhaps two) off with pay.

If you have any questions please contact me.  I will be available by cell phone at XXX-YYY-ZZZZ.  If I don't answer, please leave me a message.  I will return your call as soon as I:

1.  Get done with my bike ride.
2.  Finish my shower.
3.  Sober up.
4.  Get the kick-back/special "favor" from Sharkie. 

Respectively,

Mike
