The Human Mind Is A Mean Fucker

Now I know that everyone ages differently, but I have to say that I think that the human mind is a devilish little fucker.

As many of you know…today is my birthday. I turned 42. SHIT!!!!

For the most part I feel great…when speaking generally. I can run around with the kids, love roller coasters, camping, acting foolish at the beach, ridding in the cart at the grocery store…you know…a typical man who acts like a kid.

On the other hand, my mind has been playing some god awful tricks on me over the last few months. Maybe it is from all of those stupid commercials that spotlight an aging man with his joint pain, or the ones for Viagra or the Hover-round…maybe it is from watching TV and movies with aging men…who know?

What I do know is that I wake up most mornings with a sore back. I get a stiff neck when the is a chilly breeze. I (even though I live in Southern California) even get literally chilled to the bone when it drops below 55 degrees. I get joint pains. I need to rest and massage my shoulder after throwing a football with the boys…and I am now at the stage where I NEVER pass up an opportunity to go to the bathroom.

I really believe that most of it is in my head (seeing as I had a physical not too long ago where I was told that Cholesterol was the only concern.)

I woke up this morning to find that …one of our kids had taped up notes all over the house, such as: the one on the coffee pot that read, “all old guys need coffee to wake up…” or the one that was in the stairwell the said, “Careful old man…you don’t want to throw a hip coming down the stairs” or the one on my computer asking (in very big letters) if I needed glasses to read it.

Bless the kids for their sense of humor…but F them for reminding me of what is to come…and reminding my brain that this is a great day to make me feel old.

Well…this is a lot of writing…I think I need a nap.

Done with Beats by Dre week 2. My background is I played college basketball but recently my job is 70 hours and I have a 2 & 1 yo. Busy but somewhat fit. Plyo is easier for me but after the first day I couldn��t bend my elbows! I haven��t been that sore since college. I am not following a diet because I��m at a good weight. Trying to eat some more protein and will eat more after this board. It��s tough having an hour a day but it��s not an hour wasted P90x Workout. I��m excited to be in the shape I was without coach yelling me along. To those skinny guys that asked you will/can get cut but will never be giant muscular. You��ll get the ABS arms chest legs that look good but won��t be Mr universe Beats by Dre Headphones. You had the wrong parents P90x Reviews. That being said body shapes like that are useless this will aid you in total body life and you will look good. BTW you need bands and some free weights to make it worth while Px90 Workout. 50 bucks that��s worth it Beats by Dre Earphones. Just take a week off from dinner out. A side note my arms were unable to touch my lips and yoga ithink loosened them up along with wine. Go figure. I hate yoga would rather do another playoff day but I actually feel good the next day! Must be the oms LOL
