The thread of joy and enjoyment!

Depending on where you go, yes. Its free in some spots in Ontario. But id rather pay 40 bones than pay 40+ on a taxi and back to do them for free.
 
Toward the end it seemed a deliberate effort to go out with a ban(g). I simply pass on the reported posts to the man upstairs.
 
I recently started avoiding stupid distractions and loops (like constantly checking forums, reddit, my phone, etc.) and doing mindfulness stuff more and I feel SO MUCH BETTER. FUCK. I love the feeling of being so immersed in something that when I finish, I'm like, "oh yeah, there's more to life."

What kind of stuff have you been doing? I really need to start doing more "mindfulness" stuff too.

Pretty much everything I do, honestly. If I dance, listen to music, work out, etc. I focus only on that and take in as much as I can about what I'm doing through the senses. I also avoid checking my phone, forums, Facebook, etc. until after I've finished doing something for a while.

Whenever I fail to be mindful, I don't reprimand myself or remind myself to be mindful since knowing I'm failing is enough. I also don't try to shut out unpleasant things but just go through them. It's a long process, but it gets easier the more I do it. Eventually I find that a lot of my thoughts are pretty redundant and it frees up time to enjoy lots of other things.

It's almost like my mind is a hand and it's been wearing a latex glove my entire life and I'm taking it off.
 
I don't know what happened to Lateralus. He went from a fairly normal poster who liked Tool, to some gigantic cockmonger with a fetish for Beethoven and hating on "child fuckers."
 
You paid $160 for someone to do your federal taxes?! O_____________O

Have my mom do them for you, she's a former tax accountant who could use some $ haha

State form is just a PITA and I'm gonna owe anyway.

I'd like to stuff that PITA with delicious things
 
I quit weed for what I'm pretty sure is the last time and I feel fucking great! I smoked every day for like three weeks or so, then just woke up one morning and realized that I prefer being sober to being high and just said "fuck it." Now that the withdrawal is over, I feel so damn good. I wonder how much more things will improve. It's only been a few days.

Wait a couple more days until you realise how shitty the "sober world" is and realize what a fucktard this post makes you look like... :tickled:
 
I've been given what is essentially God mode access in this program I use at work because my manager is retiring and I'm taking over her responsibility on that end
 
It's bank holiday Monday today, which explains why I'm much happier than usual.

And also summer has pretty much ended here in the UK. I'm not a fan of summer, winter is my favourite season because I get to leather jackets and boots and not die in the atrocious heat!
