Although the NBA was a huge part of my life from 1993-ish to maybe the end of 1999, I barely follow it now outside of the Houston Rockets and any major storylines that come up.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-20715249671021758202016-06-30T04:02:54.423-06:002016-06-30T04:02:54.423-06:00I don't know about football, but the NBA you p...I don't know about football, but the NBA you pulled is good stuff. The t-wolves may not win a lot now, but they have the foundation set up to be contenders in about 3-4 years.

I've worked with a number of counselors and therapists over the last decade or so, and it probably came from talking to them or from doing some kind of self-help reading. I just have to be aware when I am caught in some sort of patterned negative thinking and then take steps to interrupt that downward pattern.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-45587476472027773182016-06-29T20:13:20.509-06:002016-06-29T20:13:20.509-06:00That is something I know a great deal about.

I have to admit too, that I have never heard the expression you used "not feed the spiral", it's one of the more insightful phrases I have read in quite a while.

It's a lifelong problem I have to manage. I think I am just in a down-er cycle right now compounded by some stressors in my life. It's just one of those things. I just have to work my coping skills, not feed the spiral, and eventually I'll get back up to my baseline mood.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-2808802789500909642016-06-29T09:23:40.323-06:002016-06-29T09:23:40.323-06:00You were entitled to your "tantrum", tha...You were entitled to your "tantrum", that card shop owner clearly knew he what was doing, which was being intentionally vague as to draw people like yourself in by deception. <br /><br />Why the recent funk?Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043468725408104535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-63823949446403243232016-06-28T21:47:32.565-06:002016-06-28T21:47:32.565-06:00I was kind of expecting it, and karma probably owe...I was kind of expecting it, and karma probably owed me a bad break anyway for pitching such a tantrum in the first place over the whole Father's Day thing.
