Nerd Fitness (my latest blog-crush) has a fantastic post about my least favorite word of all time. I need to write my own post about my dislike of the word "should." I wrote a short post about it a long time ago, how I hate it when people say "I should be able to do that" (or some variant of that). But I also hate the whole concept of "should." Stamp Out Should In Your Life.

Hoshit my thighs and glutes are stiff today.


This evening's Crossfit experience is going to be interesting.

I should update this more often, but I think you'll enjoy what's in the archives: http://digitaldiscipline.wordpress.com

(Note: contains lots of garlic)

Cool, thanks! I'll check it out...er...sometime when I have some spare time lying around.

Includes garlic, assorted rants, potential motivation, and no shortage of geeky bullshit.

In AA I used to hear people say, "Don't should on yourself!!!"

Poor glutes-n-thighs! If they only knew what was in store for them tonight. :)

Ooh gf, I hate "should" as well. Especially when it comes from someone else, and it triggers my inner brat and heel-digger-iner. "You'd better.." is another. gngrrrr.

I'm going to replace should with could. I could do that.
You could do that... we could do this...

Because it awakens my itsy-bitsy little inner competitor, (granted, there isn't much of one, but it's there)it'll give me more strength to get moving, quit eating shit that doesn't agree with me, and well, you know. :)

Yay! And yes exactly!

One of my favorite lines:

"Should is a word with enough volume to paint infinity."

I'm thinking of adding "disuse of should" to my LJ interests.
