Title: Sooo... have you ever...
Post by: Mia on October 29, 2013, 11:47:24 am
Some really stupid moments that you ask yourself later why did I do that?

For me, I felt really great this morning when I went for an interval run.. but I am starting to regret that now that I remember I have to be here until 9 PM and I woke up at 5 AM to run. But yay, running.

I also managed to fall down after 8 years of not falling at Disney.

Success only teaches what one already knows.. it is by failure that we grow and a lesson learned in pain is well remembered.

I have many "should have taken a left turn at Albuquerque" moments.. I regret none of them for they taught me much.

I might not admit to some.. but...

You mean like those moments where you're having a good day and suddenly remember some embarrassing crap that happened like 9 years ago and now your whole week is ruined?

No?

Have you ever been unable to help a friend who fell off his bike because he hit a parked car and bowled over the top and fell on the road and broke his thumb and bent his front fork in so bad he could not ride his bike home and ripped his plaid shirt and broke his glasses because you were paralyzed with hysterical laughter and coming to terms with the fact that you are just an asshole?

Would you like pixie dust with that squee?

I think we all have those moments in romantic relationships - though I really see no point in reliving those personally once you've analyzed it and moved on.

But I have done some really wtf moments outside of relationships that still make me chuckle.

Yes.. but I must add that I saw the car and accelerated. He thought it was a race until... wham!!

Ahh good times.

So yesterday I got hit on for the first time and I am completely oblivious when it happened. I spent the bus ride home laughing at myself. I didn't realize when he called my number to verify it was my cell that he was making a pass at me.

No I've just never been to Disneyland or whatever. I've never left my country aside from being on open waters.

Yeah, well, karma is a bitch.  Many years later, I walked into an open van door (which was parked), and had to get four stitches on my upper lip, right under my nose.  Walked into a stationary object, in broad daylight and sober as a Mormon.

please clarify, was this a van that was in motion, or a van used for transporting objects?
Or is it both, which would make it a moving moving van.

We're actually not going again. Though if you want to bring it up every time I post, then you inevitably create the situation you're talking about.

Ok I am game.  Let's try something fresh.  I am up to page 42 in a very cool scifi novel I am writing.  For the life of me, I have no idea what I am doing, but is it ever ambient.

You're writing sci fi? What kind of sci fi do you write? I am into sci fi but usually more realistic, I used to write but it is more emotional venting as I put it. Writing can be a great stress relief if you train yourself to use it that way.

Some of my best works have come about that way. Are you planning on publishing it?

Puhlease.  Fiber optic casinos are SO 1970s.  You could imagine a character in the story saying something like, "Just get the cashier to tabulate your chips, but don't let the Man see you."

Ok I am game.  Let's try something fresh.  I am up to page 42 in a very cool scifi novel I am writing.  For the life of me, I have no idea what I am doing, but is it ever ambient.

Some of my best works have come about that way. Are you planning on publishing it?

I have spent a great deal of time internalizing my emotional problems, and hardening them like amber into personality defects.  So, when I write it is more like shining the beautiful light of reality through a chipped and demented prism.  The pleasure I get is the surprise that comes at the end of a well crafted sentence.  Boo!

Ok, I will do so when I get home (travelling in Athens right now).  The only thing that has held me back frothewriting forum has been the overwhelming positivity of the feedback.

Call me a purist, but I will go for the pound of cure every time...

C-zom is good at criticizing writing, if you were interested in more of a summarized to the point criticism, he'd be a good person to ask. I am not as great at criticism as I used to be when it comes to literature.
