Goin Crazy....

There are times...especially after a crazy holiday like Turkey day...when going bat-chit crazy looks pretty damn attractive.

Or more to the point, crazier than normal.

And I'm not talking about becoming adorably eccentric. I've already got that covered 9 ways from Tuesday.

Nope...I'm talking about purposely relocating to the land of lunacy. That special psychological zip code where the "Ancient Laws of Behave Yourself" we were all taught somewhere, sometime in our childhoods (usually at the end of some kind of impliment of pain...such as a belt...or in my case an iron skillet) no longer applies.

You know...the kind that usually brings on that friends/family intevention? Usually with a shrink and a straigh-jacket in tow....

The "reasoning"?

Pretty darn simple.

It takes a great deal of effort to sustain a conservative, trustworthy, kick in the butt cute, adorable persona. Surrending that effort would involve, from a therapy perspective, a conscious seperation and deconstruction of the ego....that part of the human psyche entrusted with enforcing parental and socially approved actions.

And therein lies the allure of going full on bat-chit crazy.

The constant energy needed to pass as normal...or as normal as I usually pass which isn't saying much...would suddenly become available for use doing and saying whatever pleases me in the context and time I find myself in. Just imagine it. I wouldn't even need that shrink anymore.

I might, maaaaaybe need a lawyer tho...and depending on the location wherein I did whig out...a new job.

Where's the tylenol...

Texas is Nirvana for people who are contemplating going bat shit crazy. Head on over to your local Academy Sports for the Black Friday specials and pick yourself up a cart full of shotguns, handguns, and crossbows. Don't worry about the people on the street, they all have CHLs so they feel invulnerable.
This time of the year is often pretty rough, especially with people who don't have family to help them through the times.

I don't know if you are just posting under the influence, just goofing off, or seriously need help. If you need help, please call someone for help. There are people out there (outside of hobby world) who can help you.

I agree that there are times when you need to cut loose, but there are positive ways of doing that. Go to a club and dance your ass off, find a place where they still have a riding bull and work that son of a gun, or anything that does not hurt someone. Have fun, play hard, and play harder until you feel great. Just do not do something that will hurt yourself or others.

Just remember, a happy bat shit person is better than an angry bat shit person.
<------Typically a happy bat shit person who lets of angry bat shit steam.

If we weren't all crazy we would just go insane. Have fun. I see no need to change yourself just because you are around family. The family get togethers are so much more fun when everyone has a couple of drinks and loosens up.
