The High Life is Good!

I heard a great Buddhist phrase one time: A friend's good fortune is a blessing. I know a lot of us tend to be jealous or want what others have. Next time you feel jealous, remember that quote, and you will be able to enjoy the fruits of others' labor a lot more. There's a quote:

What's better than enjoying the fruits of your labor? Enjoying the fruits of others' labor.

I bring all this up because my good friend Brian was kind enough to get me into the Irvine Sports Club. This place is awesome, and if you don't think so, you're probably just jealous. The downside to all of this is 1) I'll never be able to afford being a member at a place like this and 2) I had to wake up at 5am this morning to get my act together in time to meet him there to play basketball.

Turns out, I'm 5x better at basketball in the morning because I have a distinct advantage over everyone else. Not only do I like to wake up early in the morning, I also always work out early in the morning too. The juices were flowing right away, while other people looked like zombies. CONFIDENCE BOOSTER GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anybody ever get bored and just move their furniture around? Girlfren' and I did this last night. I wonder if there is some psychological breakdown of that because it's obviously not a logical thing.
Senario 1:
Shit. This week has sucked. I'm working overtime, I haven't had sex in awhile, I don't feel like drinking, and pretty much everyone is annoying me. I know, I'll move the couch. That will fix everything!
