posturing undercut by epic gesture

this is probably the only time i will copy and repost Captain Erotica's blog....ever...

Usually Captain E.'s topics belong solidly, well, in his own blog....but this one resonated too much to not share with the few of you who don't crossover into his blogosphere as well....

how are you doing so far in 2008 on the happiness factor?

The year is already 1/24th over...and how we are in the beginning of the year can echo through the rest of our sun-cycle...

"happy" both by it's use and definition, is a subjective descriptor...but one I have chosen to represent the bell-curve apex of positive linguistic descriptors...

The bloggist admits that this test is skewed by his perspective of what makes a person Happy...Thus, as with all tests, take it with a grain of salt, or at the very least, in the Spirit of Fun

to wit, here is a survey of how you are doing:

~5 points for each yes~

~A~Are you taking time to communicate clearly with those you are intimate with?

~B~Have you done at least two days of athletic activity during 2008?

~C~Have you given yourself or an other an orgasm during 2008?

~D~Have you considered any travel during 2008? (give yourself an extra 5 points if you've already booked a ticket)

~E~Have you eaten or cooked a delicious meal during 2008?

~F~In this moment as you read this, are you relaxed overall? Even if you are not relaxed overall, can you take a deep breath and tap into relaxation somewhere inside you?

~G~Have you done anything creative thus far in 2008?

~H~Do you feel that you have been nice to other people so far during 2008?

~I~Have you given any thought towards the manifestation of an erotic fantasy thus far this year?

~J~Have you spent any time in nature this year?




Key to Happiness

0-10 Not so happy......But worry not...you've likely done other things that this test did not ask for that make you happy...
nevertheless, we suggest that you try to do at least 2 things on this list over the next week

15-20 Pretty Happy - Keep up the good work ...(PSST...it wouldn't hurt to ratchet it up a bit more though...)

25-30 - Happy! You've really put some good energy towards your well being this year so far! Nice action!

35-40 - SERIOUSLY Happy! - OK you get a gold star for being such a happy camper. Get yourself a present

45-50 - Extactic Being - You are really on track for an EPIC year...Please comment in this blog and share your advice
to help others gain this level of happy happy happy....YAY for you!

Don't mean to burst the bubble here....
But according to this I am SERIOUSLY HAPPY and I am here to tell you that I am seriously depressed.

I am not kidding even a little bit and cannot tell you how glad I am that I am flying to Costa tomorrow morning because I don't know how I would make it out of this one if not.

What more can I do if I am scoring so fucking high on all these things? I give up.

Awww, c'mon....that's patty-cake. I can seriously give myself a perfect score on that one (THANKS ANDY!). Molly, when are you coming back? We'll have "Portland Appreciates Molly Day"!

i am an ecstatic being and the only reason i don't get a perfect score is cuz i only spent ONE day bodysurfing and frollicking in the tropical seas and not two. move over 2008! your bitch ass is mine!!!!!!!!

Well, Tuk, you might consider that sex counts as athletic activity, depending on how you're doing it. So you may have a perfect score after all.

i score high as well, but i dont feel "happy" like you molly, i feel neutral, empty, balanced
i think happiness and sadness is a myth, a shadow.
our joy is our sorrow unmasked. happiness and sadness are the same thing, like siamese twins, they cannot be separated.

if you look deep you'll find out that the things that make you happy, also make you sad, and the things that make you sad also make you happy... one is not greater than the other, they are equal, hanging like scales
its only when you are empty and they hang even, balanced, are you at peace.

didnt mean to bum anyone out, just reflecting ; )

Ecstatic
Is that the same things as extactic? Do I get to be both?

How to be happy? I start by not giving advice and wrap it up by loving myself unconditionally. It works for me.

i like stars..oh hey wait I forgot about that other five points........right now Im less happy because of homework but i already decided this would be a good year.
Mon, January 14, 2008 - 8:24 PM
mmboy. i score a 20 but would consider myself seriously depressed. i want a recount, or a retest, or a remood.

Mon, January 14, 2008 - 11:03 PM

Mon, January 14, 2008 - 11:05 PM
I sucked mine for years...

Live is strange.

40 points over here. I really should get more exercise, and spend a little time in nature.

Still, SERIOUSLY HAPPY on the Captain Erotica Scale.
