Lots of anger in me today... or frustration... or both. (Daughter/problems with school... makes me feel helpless sometimes)
Not good for the stress levels.

What is is they used to say?

Stress is the natural reaction
When the brain tries to suppress
The bodies basic desire
To punch some fucker

Feeling pretty good today, going to get my blood pressure checked today, to see if thinning my blood had an effect. Cut my hand a little on a piece of wood and it took a little while to get it to stop bleeding.
Flylowgethigh last time I checked I was a male, I made up my name from the days when I use to travel the world looking for hash with Esters and being lucky enough to learn in Amsterdam how to separate the essence of the hash powder.

Sorry, I had a memory fart, possible actives induced. Lucky you to have traveled such.

 

[EsterEssence]

Feeling pretty darn good today, a few more tests tomorrow and then just keeping my red blood cell count down. Yes traveling the world while I was still young enough to get out there and ended up in the right place at the right time to learn a lot about separating the resin heads and living in Kathmandu where I could get kilos of hash powder to play with. Times have certainly changed now but I am still able to grow enough to get the 2% of the plant that I want...

Own a gun? This really works. LOL

saw my 5th grade teachers son today who reminded me i held the record in elementary school during the reagan era presidential fitness comp for pull ups and sit ups.......im still feeling that lvl of competitive nature my elders gave me (lacrosse against the mohawk nation boys) carries over but i try to focus the energy in a more creative wisdom induced action like rebuilding and maintaining my local bocce ball courts(pics this spring once snow leaves)

I'll never forget watching these videos with my uncles, my bompi turned me on to these

bocce? That's cool, I'm old and of the tribe hence what's on my want list is a Shuffleboard court , then again I don't know how to play bocce, but I do know how to shoot pool quite well

Did someone say something about memory? I'm sorry I forget

Stress- The confusion created when one's mind over rides the body's basic desire to choke the living shit out of some asshole who desperately needs it.

I got prodded yesterday by a good looking women who put warm gel on me, It was an experience unfortunately no happy ending. I’m actually feeling pretty damn good today after a good nights sleep.

 

[mr.brunch]

Damn pain
Didn’t have my morning joint this morning, and I’m feeling it... reminds me how much the weed actually helps with the pains as well as the gastric problems.
Smoking one now... might have left it too long, so I’ll probably have to break out the painkillers.

bocce is fun, but involves walking. shooting pool involves sitting on a padded seat and drinking beer while your opponent is at the table. darts are midway between them , i think. they involve both standing AND walking, admittedly not very far, lol.
bocce has the advantage of your being able to play the game while actually drinking your beer. never saw anyone actually throwing darts nor shooting pool while draining a cold one...

 

[Ringodoggie]

Man! Feeling the fucking age today. Got damn near blackout drunk last night. First time in more than a few years. Drove 20 miles home. Barely remember that. LOL


Woke up about 5AM with a fucking headache that could choke Chicago. We were busy as fuck last night but I was the only drummer so I ended up playing most all night. Ouch. Between the hangover and the pain....... MOMMY, I WANT TO BE YOUNG AGAIN!!!.


LOL

You coulda friggin' died! Or plowed into an oncoming car full of girlscouts. Glad you had fun, but.. think of the Brownies next time.

Last time I drove drunk, I woke up and my truck was up on a curb, 2" from having crashed in through our shop's glass front door.

You woulda been better off sleeping on the pavement or on top of a local bar skank. Please do next time. I just lost the most piercing and sincere blue eyed buddy on the same shit..

On a brighter note, I must have somehow torn my rotator cuff just sitting at my piano bench. Even touching the skin on the surrounding area is causing me froth up and scream like an animal.

 

[Ringodoggie]

Don't worry. I'm a professional.

51 car accidents. Most (but, not all) drunk.

Not really concerned about killing girl scouts. Too young to fuck and their cookies suck now days, anyway. I usually buy the High School Band chocolate candy bars now.

But, what I DON'T want to happen is probation. I am getting ready to leave this shithole state and I can't imagine any prison term worse than 2 years probation from a DUI and not being allowed to leave the state. I would rather take the death sentence. But, your point is well taken. My buddy had a blackout problem and finally hit someone and injured them. Not a bad injury but, it changed his life. I guess the thought of potentially killing someone meant a lot to him. Go figure.

[flylowgethigh]

Count yourself lucky. I was getting to where sometimes I didn't remember the next day what happened. A guy I knew got a dui and they put him on a deal where he had to go in for a bunch of classes, was susceptible to being drug and alcohol tested any time. F that.

That Sat that scared me I got home OK, but was pretty well injured here and there. Besides getting in trouble off my property, getting hurt there while alone was the real risk. I turned 65 today and drank a couple waters at the local beer bar, with a very nice pot buzz.

 

[Ringodoggie]

I spent many a year blacked out. No big deal. I made it through it. Some did, some didn't. No desire to do it ever again. Just not as fun as it used to be. LOL I can remember jumping up on the bar and walking along the bar top with my dick out, pissing in people's drinks. It was such a common occurrence at The Bucket Shop that people would just grab their drink and step aside as I walked down the bar pissing on everything, with Louie or Stymie cleaning up after me.... and then sit right back down as if nothing had happened. LOL Those were the days when I had just started working for FRED, the first DoD contractor I worked for. I thought I was a fucking invincible god subject to no man's rules. LOL Someone should have done me the favor of shooting me dead back in those days. LOL People always used to say it was going to happen..... someday. LOL Someday never came. I see old friends and they are simply AMAZED that I am still alive. LOL Got me a guardian angel.

Well I must say that the bleeding made me feel way better, all the symptoms are gone or way less.
Ringodoggie, I am the exact opposite when it comes to drinking and driving. I won’t even have one beer/drink and drive. I don’t want to wake up hungover, kill somebody or myself, get a dui here in Cali it costs you 20,000 by the time you are done paying all the fines and insurance and that’s if you don’t total your car. Not to mention probation where they can get all up your in your life. I would have a hard time living if I killed some young family because of a stupid fucking decision I made to drive drunk...

 

[Ringodoggie]

Very cool, bud. Whatever works to make us feel better. That's what it becomes all about. LOL Glad it made you feel better.

As for drunk driving. This week was rare. I have no desire to have anything to do with drunk, whether driving or not. LOL It simply hurts too much. LOL As for the old days, I simply didn't give a fuck. Not about hangovers. I remember pouring Labatt's Blue beer on my Coco Krispies many mornings. It was a way of life, then. Kill somebody? It's pretty much what I was doing for a living back then, anyway. Accidentally or on purpose really wouldn't have affected me any differently. DUI's were almost non existent back then. The most you got was a reckless op...4 points. And, 20 grand? I was making more money per contract than most of my friends were from working for an entire year. Had plenty of money to burn.

Simply put, I didn't have a reason NOT to, back then. LMAO So, I did. And, it was fun. Once stuff stops being fun, I quit doing it. LOL I barely drink, now. Probably why I got drunk so easily last Wednesday. And, when I did drink at the bar on Wednesdays, my house was a block away. I moved and now I am 40 minutes or so. It would be fine with me if I never got drunk again.... ever. LOL

And, here's one I thought I would never hear myself say..... Smoking pot just isn't fun any more. After all these years of outlaw growing and dealing and using.... I am going to move to California where it is completely legal and likely...... quit smoking pot. LOL

Never know what the future will bring. But, I have found that it is seldom what you expect. LOL

Once again, glad you're feeling better.


Peace

I would never had thought bleeding would be good. Congrats.

Well, for me turning 65 was a milestone, but getting drunk then hurt helped push the direction of change. Doc broke the news today that it will not be my heart and arteries that kill me, so I have no excuse to get back in some kind of shape. Kidneys and liver some how are good too. Honestly, right now life is too good to screw it up getting hurt by being drunk. And if society does break down, who wants to be weak and worthless?

 

[Ringodoggie]

Fitness and health is SOOOOOO important as you get old.

I was always a gym rat and always been into working out and good health. But, when you are young, you can do both. I remember many many times boxing at the Y, totally shitfaced drunk. LOL We would get all fucked up drunk and if we couldn't start a fight with someone else, we would go to the Y and beat the shit out of each other. LMAO

Good fucking times. Good fucking friends. LOL

I’m turning 66 in a few days, I have a couple health problems but all of the tests they have done except the high red blood cells, and neuropathy, I’m doing pretty good for my age, I’ve lost 60 lbs, and ride the stationary bike every other day, and still keep up on my ranch work. The bleeding threw me for a loop I thought that was a medieval procedure, but if that’s what they have to do it’s way better than the people there getting chemotherapy. George Washington died after being bled, there’s my trivia for the day...Ringodoggie which part of Cali are you thinking about...
