I guess because there are only 2 people with the URL to this blog and nobody ever comments I might be allowed to get away with this.
I have been trying to be selfless, but I feel backed up with crap I probably have no right to complain about, but feel the need to anyways.
* In the last four years, no matter how bad things have gotten I have always been able to turn to snowboarding. When things with Colorado were at their worst, when my finances were a raging wreck, when my family wouldn't even talk to me, when I felt like nobody in the world understood me at all - I could strap in, huck myself down the run and it would all melt away. Logic dictates that the fact that my back problems have gotten nothing but worse in the past 4 years, and that the RMT that I have seen has told me that I should stop snowboarding because I could seriously injure myself for life - I should quit. And I am, but it's not something that is sitting well with me AT ALL - and I'm finding myself quite frustrated at the lack of sesitivity some of my friends are choosing to execute when talking to me about this. I am proud that they wouldn't have any problems at all just quitting whatever they were told to without thinking twice, but thats a harder pill for me to swallow. I haven't complained to anybody about it yet - BUT I AM REALLY FUCKING UPSET ABOUT THIS. ARG! I really wish that people weren't belittling my choices.
* The back. The fucking back. Being in pain all the time is not fun. Its debhilitating, and I have been struggling with this for years. I don't expect people to understand exactly how much it fucks you up not being able to sleep, being constantly sore and trying to still live a fulfilling life and doing the things that make you happy. I try and not let this effect my life, and I dont expect sympathy... but it really frustrates me when I get ripped into for making a questionable choice. Yes, I danced for an hour on Saturday. Yes, I was told not to. Yes, Im aware that it was not the best decision... but wtf. Am I supposed to just roll over and die - ? I am only a human and giving up literally all the physical stuff that I love to do is going to take me some time. Fuck.
* It was my best friends birthday last weekend and a huge party was thrown and I wasn't invited. Totally slighted. I'm pretty hurt by this, and have asked why, but I haven't been replied to. I don't get it.
Ugh. I don't even see any point in continuing this shitfest.
