We require regeneration.
You really should be able to call out due to depression, but well. Mental sickness doesn’t show all that well. Well. Not usually. I’m pretty easy to read; when I’m sad, it really REALLY shows ...
I'm kind of a pacifist, anyway.
Ya know, I don’t like horror movies. Maybe if they’re played for pure laughs, sure. But violence for the sake of violence really perturbs me. Violins, not violence; that’s more my style. There...
I think I'll look up gym fails later.
I saw a trainer showing a twig how to do shrugs. Shrugs? Are you kidding me? This is partly why I didn’t want to go into personal training. I can’t insult people like that. Shrugs? Dude, yo...
Never skip leg day.
Skipped the gym yesterday because I’m running short on sleep, and been a touch too depressed. So, here’s a “bad” selfie.
Tired.
I feel like I peaked a decade ago. To feel like you’re going somewhere. I’ve almost forgotten what that feeling is like. It feels like a slow fade away into nothingness. Free to do whatever I w...
I've always known I'll die alone.
Well, not literally. Just my greatest fear. Probably everyone has this fear in some form. It might sound like a downer to “accept” that I’m going to be quite the loner for a long time, if not ...
Preworrying.
I sometimes have anxiety about anxiety. Like, I’ll be relatively fine, but there is a small worry I’ll be anxious later. I was at work and worried I’d be anxious before bed. I’m… eh, not anxi...
Cookie Monster.
I’m up 7 lbs from last month. Concurrent with tracking when I get up and go to sleep, I weigh myself before bed, and first thing when I get up. It’s so fascinating how you can lose two pounds j...
I even lift, bro.
I gave myself permission not to lift today. Slept as long as I felt comfortable. Still ate my oatmeal, because oatmeal is healthy whether you’re on your deathbed or a healthy 29 year old. Actu...
Nano Thoughts.
I was relaxed enough at work to do some head-writing for my next novel. I keep coming back to the concept of losing and then trying to find a older/younger sister. I’ve done “falling in love wi...
Red-lining.
So, 20 workouts in 23 days, plus one cardio? Or something. Tired? Kinda. Well, yes. It’s that early-morning calm. Physically, I feel fine. Well, I was getting tired towards the end of my wor...
Ho Hum.
8 hours of sleep, check. Plenty of food, check. Holding off on cookies last night? Uhhhh. I’ll try to watch my cookie quota tonight. Woke up rested today but not entirely motivated. I am try...
Sugar.
Ah, honey honey. I’m always looking for course corrections. Saturday night I went to bed early and slept 10 hours. Woke up feeling amazing yesterday. Went to bed relatively on time last night,...
Streaking.
Well, ran my upper/lower split six days straight last week. Got ten hours of sleep last night; felt rested enough to do some fasted cardio this morning. Does that count as “hitting the gym” sev...
Timmy Got Back.
I got a compliment at the gym. Usually, I’m there first thing in the morning. Well, first thing for me, which can be as early as 4 am. I had a morning shift today, and an evening shift last nig...
Some people deserve a yeast infection.
So, led my second Ass Day* of the week with ten sets of 3 deadlifts @ 245 lbs with one minute rest periods. There’s two squat racks on either side. And both are occupied by dudes curling. Punch...
No amateur teins, only professional teins.
Feel like I have nobody to talk to*. So, here we are. I’ve lifted 14 out of the last 16 days. Today’s workout was… 104 minutes. May remove one exercise. I’m trying to keep it consistent, and...
Someday, I'll be a real boy!
Let’s see, ten workouts in eleven days. Every workout over 75 minutes. Lifts are going up, I feel physically awesome. Hell, might be placebo, but I feel different in the mirror. I will laugh i...
Resting Bitch Face.
Apparently I am afflicted with it. Eh, apparently. I get accused of looking angry when I’m not. Maybe annoyed, but usually it’s just latent sadness. I don’t bother fake smiling, as fake smilin...
Knowing everything would be boring.
At times, saying “I’ve read all these books” and citing all these quotes can be a bit of Appeal to Authority. It’s cool to borrow other people’s ideas to influence you, to help shape you. But at...
As I said to someone on reddit...

Fun with MSPaint.
I mean, the tattoo idea is simple enough that I can see how it looks without any printing. Probable location. Potential alternate location. Right along the line where I had a shooting pain do...
She can not lie.
Coworker: “Wow, this ladle is huge!” Me: “I can get you a smaller one.” Coworker: “No, I like big ladles. …Tim, don’t even say it.” Me: “What? I didn’t say anything!” And I didn’t, I swear!...
More Tattoo Thoughts.
I’m just assuming I’ve written about tattoos before? I feel like I have a half-dozen ideas, but here’s a few that have stuck in my head. Green Ranger symbol. There’s also one that looks a lit...
A Shared Experience.
You can underestimate how much you sweat at the gym until you take your soaked knickers out of your gymbag at home. Further reason why I HAVE to shower at the gym before equipping street clothes ...

Off-hand thoughts which I won’t organize as well. But feel safe to share.
