Ok. So I stated a little earlier in a post that I would try new things. Well . . .
It's not going very well for me. I think partially I've hit the Old Enoch impass: The habitual sloth. Now I know that confessing a deadly sin to the general public will probably get me a slow trip to ridicule, but if it's just between you and me, I think I will be ok. Just don't tell too many people.
My problem is that I get comfortable too quickly. Kinda ... I actually have two problems. The first ... I get too comfortable too quickly. I like my house. I like my books, computer, video games, tv, movies, etc, etc, etc. I also think that I'm a little too lazy to keep things going fantastically great. Possibly I need to start exercising and increase my activity status, but being a lazy person i think that will hurt to much.
So I just relax and take my time to not do much, nor meet people.
Problem number two ... I feel old. Which is odd because I really don't feel old, but here in Utah Valley ... I FEEL OLD!!! I have a number of friends who tell me that if I was to move back to Boston area that I would be in my prime to meet people and hang out. Out here in Provo, UT ... I get the feeling that I'm expired produce. Of course that means that I don't enjoy going out as much as I should, but I'm trying.
Case in point ... I went out to a Utah Jazz game a couple of weeks ago with a nice young lady. She was very attractive, and fun to talk to. I had a good time that night, and I think that she had a good time as well. So what happened to her? Nothing. I mean I haven't asked her out again, possibly because I am waiting for something exciting to come along, but mostly because I just haven't thought about it. I come home and fall back into my old routine.
So here I am making a statement to my close friends ... I am going to try ... again. Or at least I will attempt more than I have recently. And if you find me not trying ... kick my butt in gear. As frustrated as I might seem, I think that I would be more frustrated if I didn't try. So hopefully the next post I put up will be better news than I bought a new bean bag chair and the indent fits my butt perfectly.
At least one can dream!!
