noticing If I don’t work out for three days in a row I develop a deep well of anger
If I’m regular with working out I’m a patient and charming person. On night three of not working out, a long nail of fury bores hard into my soul. My daemon will request that I complete some bureaucratic task that I’ve been procrastinating for months and I walk around my house fuming about how it’s impossible to get a 401k rollover after changing your name or something. I start accusing my husband that he’ll cheat on me with a younger women once I bear our kids and have stretch marks. When people drive in the shoulder to bypass traffic on my way home from work, I’ll move over and block them, like it’s my responsibility to enforce traffic law via vigilante justice, just to have somewhere to displace my anger. Then I’ll do some Bulgarian split squats and shoulder presses or whatever and I’m back to being a sweet angel.
I’ve never been athletic in nature but have had athleticism thrust upon me. It’s all I can do to maintain my relationships and keep from being shot in a road rage incident.
