That was the saying my best friend told me. And I laughed for almost an hour.
In reality, we have to find humor in this. I try to find the comedy in the ridiculousness of it all. I mean really, we’ve got a jellyfish sting with a neurological pain condition, a hormonal problem, a slew of side effects from literally everything we try, and I walk like Bambi half the time with balance issues. But hey, I don’t have acne or pimples so that’s a plus right? And I haven’t had a head cold in 9 months! YAY [that’s like never happened]
Discussing this with Nick made me crack up laughing. I mean lets be real. Instead of me choosing to go on a wild adventure or riding a motorbike and crashing as a result, my body decided to crash and burn on its own. Instead of choosing to reduce my food intake for socially pressured reasons, I can’t eat much because my body has now decided it’s going to reject food. Instead of getting a cool tattoo and having a bad reaction to some kind of ink or pain in that area. But no, my body literally decided to make terrible life choices for me.
Any you know, I used to believe that terrible things came in threes, we are on like 20…not even a multiple of 3… So I suppose maybe there is a new rule OR maybe I am getting all my rules of 3 out now. I like to guess I am getting all the shitty stuff out of the way in the first quarter of my life. Maybe, since it’s still going on and going down hill is because I’ll live to be 104!
I’m going to just run with that and quote Nick everyday…that life likes to make the bad choices for me!
