This is mad amazing.

by way ofgrinninfoole:

The performer, by the way, is Michael Moschen, master juggler. Also known as hey those aren't David Bowie's hands playing with his balls in Labyrinth.

I overdid it with the weights yesterday and my shoulders and quads are sore like hell. I think just cardio today. Also, totally broke my bed last night. (and no, not while doing anything fun, alas, one of the side slats popped off.)

So on failing... you know, what the hell ever, I don't really care usually about failing at little things, or even big things usually. But when it's something I care deeply about? oh HELL yeah, it hurts.

What doesn't help with that is knowing that other people expect x thing to fail... it just makes the defeat all the more crushingly humiliating, and not in the fun way like falling in the mud on Ninja Warrior, cause doing anything on ninja warrior is a success, damn it. No it's just the sort of, I'm already down and people are smug jackasses and can't wait to say Yeah, see I knew that was gonna go tits up. It sort of makes me want to pull the fail out somehow and say to the world FUCK YOU I WILL MAKE THIS WORK SEE IF I DON'T AND DID I MENTION FUCK YOU? And then there would follow a whole big montage probably scored with Vangelis in which you know work on x thing is done, training happens, sacrifices are made, lots of FEEL THE BURN faces are made in slow motion, violins swell and YES YES THE FAIL IS NOW SUCCESS! EAT THAT BITCHES! *orchestral florish*

Why yes, I chase rainbows and tilt at windmills, thanks for asking. And when I find the pot of gold at the end someday YOU CAN'T HAVE ANY. SO THERE.

yea okay, </irrational_moment>

Hmm...

Either having another cup of coffee in the evening actually helps, or I'm getting better at making managable to-do lists as opposed to the kind that look like "clean entire house, withdraw all troops from Iraq, cure cancer, learn ancient latin, perfect teleportation machine and write the Great American Novel, all before America's Got Talent comes on." But no, I had ten reasonable things on my plate for tonight and so far all but two are done. Of the two that are left, one is actually technically done (i did "look for my earhooks" after all. I didn't say "find my earhooks."), and since the other is pretty much my bedtime shower and teeth scouring, I think tonight may be a 12 for 12. I feel oddly accomplished - it's been a little bit since I was able to actually complete a to-do list I set for myself.

I suppose the question remains... can lightning strike twice? can I do this again tomorrow? Maybe if I keep assigning myself little tasks/chores to do every day, things would actually get done... it is nice being able to go to bed knowing you accomplished what you said you were going to do that evening. I should do that more, i think...

Things just seem to be looking up across the board. I'm wary of the longevity of this trend, but in the meantime, I'm riding the temporary clarity and stability offered me to get as much done as possible before I have to find another thing to cling to/stand on. Hey, one has to start from somewhere.

I should take that shower before I fall asleep and not finish after all, lol.

• 10:10 is feeling grounded for the first time in a damn long while. Thank the gods.
• 16:30 is now angry, frustrated and manic. Which clearly means she's going to lose her shit and clean.
