“Those” Days

May 28th, 2008 by Riley

Does anyone else have “those” days?

“Those” days when you question if your life has purpose…

“Those” days when you question if your life has meaning…

“Those” days when you question what you are going to do, how you are going to get to where you want to be, if it’s even possible…

“Those” days when the mountains look very, very high and your climbing gear is looking pretty damn worn?

“Those” days… they are out there. They lurk. Like bed bugs.

“Those” days pretty much suck.

“Those” days are f’in time-consuming.

“Those” days are unfortunate.

“Those” days, down with you! You will be defeated!

Of course, when in the midst of one of “those” days, it’s nearly impossible to manage ninja thoughts of dominating and making “those” days my bitch. I usually just think, “Get me an amaretto sour and some Prozac stat!”

    i’m sorry you’ve been having “those” days. don’t ever give up on anything, especially yourself. as far as this mountain, every day spent climbing is one day closer to the top. you’ll be ok.

    I know I’ll be okay. I always recover. They just suck while they are happening.

    Damn Nikky, that’s some fast high-speed you’ve got there. They hit me like a linebacker.

    No, Pamela! No. No. No. No days like that for you dammit!
