How Watching “ROCKY” and “ROCKY II” Helped Me Re-Quit Smoking… …Again.

I Admit It.

I’ve Slipped-Up.

I’ve Done It Two Days In A Row.

I’ve “Closet” Smoked.

I’ve Been Doing So Well, But It’s So F-in’ F-IN’ HARD!

😦

I’m Actually Having One As I Write This, But That’s Only Because I Felt I Deserved It.

I’m Writing.

That’s What’s Important, Here.

And, I Owe It All To “Closet” Smoking, And Watching “ROCKY” and “ROCKY II“.

Nice.

I Haven’t Had Many Smokes.

So, I Sincerely Don’t Consider It Much More Than A Decently-Sized Hiccup.

But, Honestly, It’s Been Pissing Me Off.

I Really Went Off The Wagon Tonight.

I Just Couldn’t Help Myself.

I HAD To Have One.

So, I Did.

And, Yes, It Was Amazingly Wonderful.

The Best Smoke I’ve Had In A Long, Long While.

Sooo…

…I Eventually Had Another.

😦       😦

I Am So F-in’ Sorry, My Peeps.

I’m Really Trying.

I Really REALLY AM!

But, Honestly, This Is So Damned Hard.

They’re So Engrained Into My Day.

They Have Been For Over 10 Years.

Sheesh.

I Don’t Like Being A “Closet” Smoker.

That’s All Gone, Now.

Can’t Keep It In The “Closet” If You Tell EVERYONE!

HA!

I Beat You, bradley alan!

Assbag!

Thought You Could Hide From Me Like That!

HA!

No No, You’ll Not Be Smoking Anymore On MY Watch.

BRADLEY ALAN Is Back In Control.

🙂

Thank You To “ROCKY” For Showing Me It’s Alright To Fail At One Goal, If You’ve Achieved A Different One In The Process.

😀

Thank You To “ROCKY II” For Showing Me That Taking Another Shot Might Just Net Me A Goddamn Title!

😀       😀

I Am Now Going To Treat Myself  To “ROCKY III” Because I’ve Been Such A Good Boy, Tonight.

ROCKY III” Is “MY FAVORITE” Of The “ROCKY” Flicks.

Period.

Always Has Been.

Always Will Be.

ROCKY” Is Arguably “THE BEST”.

ROCKY II” Is “VASTLY UNDERRATED”.

ROCKY III” Is “MY FAVORITE”.

ROCKY IV” Is “THE BALLS”.

ROCKY V” Is “THE HEART”.

ROCKY BALBOA” Is “THE HEARTIER HEART”.

ROCKY III

Agree With Me?

Don’t?

Eh.

I’ll Live.

😉

Love Y’all… …Mean It.

So... Are YOU Jivin Me -questionmark-

The Song Stuck In My Head: “DAMAGED PEOPLE” by DEPECHE MODE (2005)

.. ..

… … …

Were Damaged People

Drawn Together

By Subtleties That We Are Not Aware Of…”

“…Disturbed Souls

Playing Out Forever

These Games The We Once Thought We Would Be Scared Of…”

“…When Youre In My Arms

The World Makes Sense

There Is No Pretense

And Youre Crying

When Youre By My Side

There Is No Defense

I Forget To Sense

Im Dying…”

“…Were Damaged People

Praying For Something

That Doesnt Come From Somewhere Deep Inside Us…”

“…Depraved Souls

Trusting In The One Thing

The One Thing That This Life Has Not Denied Us…”

…. …. …. ….

DAMAGED PEOPLE

by DEPECHE MODE

…Is A Truly Skipped-Over AND Underrated Jam, My Peeps.

Truly AND Honestly.

It’s Very Odd.

It’s Very Quirky.

It’s Dark AND Brooding.

Yet, All The While, It Remains A Beautiful Song.

Period.

This Is Actually One Of My Favorite Songs From The Album “PLAYING THE ANGEL“…

…An Album Jammed With Favorites.

PLAYING THE ANGEL” Was Released In 2005, With Most Reviews Saying This Particular Song Was One Of The Drags Of The Album.

People Just Didn’t Warm-Up-To-It Like I Sincerely Felt They Should.

Me?

I Loved The Entire Album, Including The  Song “DAMAGED PEOPLE“, And I’m Quite Unsure Just How Many Times I’ve Listened To It.

It’s A Song That Gets My Brain AND Heart Churning AND Burning Overtime.

At This Moment, This Song Is Locked Into My Mind.

I’ve Been Listening To It The Bulk Of The Morning, And That Sincerely Prompted This Post.

Honestly, I’m Not So Sure What To Say.

I Have Something Written On Paper, But I’m Slowly Realizing I Don’t Really Think I Should Say To Y’all Everything It Actually Says.

I Think I Made It TOOOOOO Personal.

Just Know This, My Peeps…

…I’m Dedicating This Post To Someone.

The Other Inspiration For This Bloggin’ing.

THE SPARK.

Everyone, Whom Works In A Creative Field, MUST Have A SPARK.

Period.

A Muse, If You Will.

Something/Someone That Inspires You.

Something/Someone That Makes You Want To Work.

Something/Someone That Brings You Great Joy In Life.

I Have One.

You (likely) Have One.

So, Tell Me, My Peeps…

…WHAT/WHO INSPIRES YOU???

WHAT/WHO MAKES YOU WANT TO WORK???

WHAT/WHO BRINGS YOU GREAT JOY IN LIFE???

Please Let Me Know, My Peeps.

To Say I’m Curious Is An Epic Understatement.

I Want To Know What Makes You Feel Like Doing This Kind Of Thing, Or Any Kind Of Thing, Regardless Of What It Is.

I Know What Makes Me Happy.

I Know What Makes Me Sad.

I Know What Inspires Me.

I Know What Makes Me Keep Coming Back For More.

So, What Does It For YOU, My Peeps???

Anything???

Anything At All???

There MUST Be SOMETHING???

Right???

RIGHT!!!
