On the other hand

[eyesmiling]

I wrote a whole post about how my stomach hurts from cramps but then when I looked it I felt so silly to have a whole post just about my stupid cramps when it has been forever since I last wrote a livejournal. Maybe when you get older the desire to document EVERYTHING goes away some. Maybe...maaaybeee

The Gym

[bottledspirit]

I have issues with the gym too!

It makes me sad because for me it's all social axiety. It's like "Well I'm not sure the etiquette at this place... so I don't think I'll go." or that I think people are judging me and the fact that I don't have nice white gym shoes and can't afford them so I had to use my normal runners and that makes me feel guilty because there's all those signs saying indoor shoes only... run on sentence.

So yea. Gym. I try it too but fail at it. =( I even got an awesome iphone holder thingy for my arm, but I'm just too self-conscious. D:

Gym & motivation; a suggestion: Is it possible for you to somehow get yerself a gym-going partner? This is most effective if you ONLY meet this person at the gym for the purposes of gym going; you each end up being the other person's real reason to be there.

I mean, I love doing just about everything under the sun, but I would never be able to work the gym thing solo. I could never make myself care to go if I didn't plant ulterior, short-term motives.

Hell, even things that are CLEARLY supremely awesome in their own right I don't practice unless others are involved, including such high-win activities as music making and contact juggling. I'm getting waaaaaaaay better at the latter this year simply because we have a place to go do it where there are other awesome folks engaged in similar awesomeness, many of whom I never see otherwise.

Also, hooray for skating!
