CloseI have nearly been hit by cars and even a truck before while absent-mindedly walking along. Not a pleasant feeling!
I've never slipped over near glass or hit my head on anything, though.
I had a school friend who always leant back on her stool in class and inevitably fell off of it every second lesson. Some people just tempt fate. Maybe she was a thrill seeker.
But Red_Nova, you sound especially un/lucky.

I can be as careful as possible, but the world just has other plans. I do like the idea that I'll never die though, nhubi. That whole argument that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? Right? *Nervous laughter*
No, that's a stupid statement when applied to physical trauma (which it usually is), Nietzsche was a childish idiot at times but he was talking about emotional trauma. What doesn't physically kill you can leave you permanently disabled, scarred, prone to bouts or reoccurrences of the original malady or just plain weakened.
You appear to have Rincewind Syndrome, bad stuff happens to you but you come through mostly unscathed and able. Just run with it, and anyway if you had a bubble something would just burst it anyway (and you'd be fine).
Sooo I went to bed at about 10:00 and woke up at 4:00...
...it's odd because I usually kinda have trouble waking up when I don't get at least 10-12 hours of sleep. Probably helps that I started my diet yesterday; I feel less bloated and more energetic already.

Red _Nova really needs to invest in some protection against voodoo because it sounds like he is getting spelled down with some black magic.

Much of the problem here seems to be negative thinking. Negative thought generally produces negative energy. The theory is that bad things happen because you expect them to happen. This type of thinking forms patterns that you may have difficulty breaking.
Intent is the single most important, indispensable ingredient to any operation. The trick is to maintain that intent, and to word the intent properly, because if you think, "I'm not going to get hurt", your mind only understands, "get hurt". "I'm not going to" is just an attachment that means nothing. You're still thinking about getting hurt. Eventually, you reach a point that you no longer even think about it. The pattern is set. Your goal should be to create a positive pattern of thinking. Instead of thinking, "I'm not going to trip," or "I'm not going to lose my car keys," think, "I don't walk, I strut," or "When I snap my fingers, my keys are there." Employ a method of thinking that doesn't just promote positivism, but one that rejects negativity. Think like a rock star.
Edit:
Of course, if you really want a magickal solution, I'd suggest a white sage cleansing. You need the kind of incense burner that hangs from a chain. Light the white sage bundle and when it catches, put the flame out and let it smolder. A small bundle should be enough. They generally cost about 5 dollars. Hold the incense burner out in front of you. Fill your mind with positive thoughts. Blow the smoke into all corners of your living space, including the windows, doors, and any spot that's been obscured, like behind a piece of furniture and under your bed. Hold the burner in front of you and turn in circles, moving the burner up and down until your entire body has been covered in the smoke. It helps to pretend your washing yourself with it.
Also, if you smoke pot, this will mask the smell.
So I recently gave up alcohol and pot. I am finished, through with it, I find no enjoyment in it myself anymore and I don't honestly like being around people under the influence of it anymore. Besides, I'm going on a diet upon returning to The Big Orange of Toronto, I need to start you know, looking forward to the future and spending my time getting shit done.
Good riddance.
Good riddance.
surely intent can't be *the most important* ingredient?? you can intend on doing something and still never get it done.
pianotm is one of my favorite users on rmn!! :)
now next time, when i inject the loco weeds, i know exactly how to pass my drug test!

I've never drank/done drugs, but I can't stand the thought of those around me doing so. Like, I was at a Christmas party, and my cousin, who's two years younger than me, gets drunk off his ass, then he's like "I'm gonna go get a pack of cigarettes", but because he's drunk off his ass, my mother, being the only sober one at the party aside from yours truly, had to take him to the store.
My mother and father have also gone cold turkey on drinking, and my mother seems to be taking it really well. After all this time (it's been # months since her last drink), she's like "why would I want to make myself stupid?" I'm glad she feels that way.

Blechh I don't enjoy drinking alcohol, and one cigarette was enough to convince me to never smoke again :/

Adon, as someone who has studied Crowley and other magical traditions extensively in my life path as a gigantic nerd, he doesn't mean intent as in "intentions" as in "the noblest of intentions". He means intent as in "will" as in "will to power".
I.e. my intention is to finish games but I clearly lack intent i.e. will.
@PianoTM:
I was only being semi-facetious when I suggested that Red_Nova could have some negative magickal energy being channeled at him. Officially speaking, I don't believe in any system of magic any more than I believe in Leprechauns. But I have to say the sheer avalanche of seemingly random misfortune Red_Nova described facing seems like it defies any mundane explanation. It did remind me of the harmful sendings and magical "wars" alleged to have taken place between Crowley and his contemporaries during the rocky years of the O.T.O..
I would suggest Red do the white sage cleanse. While as mentioned I do not actually believe in this stuff (I just know a lot about it) I mean even if you put the chance of it having any effect at 1% or less, $5.00 is a bargain.
author=unityI second this. Pleaseauthor=Red_Nova;_; Please don't die, Red!
My existence is either proof of a protective deity or proof of a sadistic one. And if The Sims is any representation of a deity's behavior...
I think last year alone I almost died or critically injured at least 4 times. And that's NOT counting the threats:
- A grill blew up in my face.
- a gallon of boiling water was dumped on me.
- Hot grease splattered onto my dominant hand, preventing it's use for a few days. (that was during the IGMC!)
- I was nearly impaled by a falling tree branch.
... I need a bubble. I would go about my daily activities in a bubble with absolutely zero shame.

Actually, its: "What doesn't kill you will most certainly try again". And apparently, that is the case here. But this doesn't help much, so just disregard it :)
That said, pause for a moment and look at all the things you accomplished! Look at all those that care for you! Surely you haven't experienced a shortage of good, memorable experiences to treasure, right?
author=Gourd_Claeauthor=unityI second this. Please don't die!
;_; Please don't die, Red!
Edited to suit pianotm's and Kylaila's wishes. ;)
Have you not paid any attention to what Pianotm has been saying?
HE HAS TO LIVE!
Live, Red Nova! Be safe and have fun ;)

whether it's enough to curse or not, he's got a point. We think in pictures .. and the pictures we get with negatives are not good.

I... w-wow. That's a lot of support! Thanks guys!
I almost don't want to mention that I almost got injured again last night. I almost don't want to mention that some jackass ran a red light while I was crossing an intersection. I almost don't want to mention that their car missed mine by about an inch.
Nope.
Also Pianotm: I'm trying to be positive! I'm really trying. But I won't lie and say it's easy to be positive. How do you stay positive after all of this!
Thanks, Karins! I really appreciate your words!

Now I'm curious as to what happens if I google my username.
EDIT: Apparently I'm a Yu-Gi-Oh card.
I haven't played it in years, but if I'm remembering this right, that's not a bad card.
