More My Bad.

What was I thinking? Extreme sport?!? As I sit here, veins happily pumping caffiene to my englightened brain, I ponder the human ability to reduce oneself to the depths of despair and wallow in the slime of low self-image for absolutely no reason. Okay, well, maybe caffeine withdrawal is a bit of a reason :P But really! Was I actually comtemplating cosmetic surgery? Was I that desperate, in my hour of withdrawal and Starbucks need? Did I become temporarily insane? A boob job? A friggin BOOB job?? Dear God, the horror!! What Was I Thinking?!

Thankfully, my sane mind overrode my insane mind before bad things could happen. But this is the kind of stuff that happens to people on a regular basis. Temporary insanity, for whatever reason. Beware out there!! It's all around us. The guy who goes to the dealership to check out this years Honda hybrids and ends up with a gas guzzling Hummer. The woman who simply wants new slipcovers for her sofa but ends up with a 25 thousand dollar remodeling bill :P

What motivates the human mind? What makes otherwise sane, normal people lose it and do drastic things? Guilty things. Things that haunt you. I was lucky, I was stopped in time. But others...they may need help. Friends, family, co-workers. It's all around us, people with perfectly good plans that suddenly go madly awry.

I feel the need to warn you all. It's a jungle out there, beware! Watch out! You could lose your mind ANY minute now and do something crazy. If you cannot stop yourself, at least have the common sense to videotape it and put it up on YouTube. If you're going to be crazy, might as well share it with the rest of us. We need to live vicariously, apparently.
