Another year...gone

and now as I understand it....   41 this year...bleh. You'd think by now I'd be used to the fact that I'm in my 40s.   I'm getting more self conscious about the way I dress. I mean, it's not like I wear A&F or American Eagle or such. But I L. U. V. love Banana Republic

Untitled....and untranslated just for the hell of it.

Here's the first section of the first chapter of the story I've been working on.......in Greek.   "Μπαμπά, πρέπει να ακούσετε αυτό;" griped Ι, για την επίτευξη του Ipod πριν έκανε ένα δυνατό κτύπημα στο χέρι μου. Άφησα ένα δυνατό αναστεναγμό και διασχίζεται χέρια μου, με τον τρόπο με τον ερεθισμένο μου είχε περάσει ολόκληρη τη μέρα. "Φίλιππος, που είναι δύστροπος μαζί μου δεν πρόκειται να πάρετε το αυτοκίνητό σας έξω από το μαγαζί κάθε νωρίτερα," ο μπαμπάς μου μου διδάξει. "Το έχω ήδη πει, μ

Crack Music

I listen to Happy Hardcore, a genre of Techno that my friends cheerfully refer to as crack music. I finally ripped a couple old CDs of the stuff from high school onto my iPod this week, so I had absolutely no problem staying awake all night at work. My coworkers think I'm crazy, since a side effect of Happy Hardcore is that I grin maniacally and occasionally make movements into dancing.   I've forgotten how exhausting it is to be a full adult. It feels like I never have a chance to catch my b

Stanford chemo/transplant

I've been a little quiet recently, basically just recovering for the collection process which took longer than originally expected by almost a week. So, to make sure I had an adequate recovery time, the rest of my schedule got bumped so instead of having gone in June 3, I am now going in tomorrow, June 10 to start the week of heavy chemo and then a week from today, I'll get the transplant (ie, the cells that were collected from me will be reintroduced).   It will take a while for them to sett

Give it your own title

I guess the first thing I should do is get the dust rag out and wipe the spiderwebs off of my blog. I can't believe it's been so long since I've logged on to GA. Actually, this is the first time in a long time I've been able to sit down and catch my breath in a long time.   I'm sure that everyone knows by know, but for those that might not know, I became a dad in April. My head's still spinning a little bit, but the newness of it is pretty much gone now, if that makes any sense. My daughter a

Nobody likes you when you're 23.

Gym? What's a gym?

Jumped on the scales this morning...   Not good.   Used to be pretty big (108kg/240lb), lost a lot of it when I was nineteen (76kg/170lb), and now I've put exactly half of it back on (92kg/205lb). Dunno how I feel about that just yet. I'm almost twenty-three now, a couple of inches taller taller than I was at nineteen and a whole lot broader through the shoulders, so I guess that explains a bit of it. Still, feels like I've let some of that good work go to waste. Bit disappointed in myself,

My kingdom by the sea

extraordinary \/\/@y$

I'm writing this now smelling like cheap wine and cigarettes. I swear my friends went through at least 2 packs each tonight.   Tonight, considering it a Sunday the day of rest, we went and bought four bottles of the cheapest wine we could find (11.99) or something. It was cheap and not worth of my throat, but it went down anyways in all of the cheap glory it held. Giving me a weird drunk, I washed that down with a few bowls, we pushed the car into the sand (we went to crystal cove) - we had to

Single and......no clue

I think that has to constitute as the longest week of my life! [sigh]   Well, the deed is done and I’m now single. I’m not really sure how I feel about it to be honest, it’s been such a long time since I’ve been on my own...truly on my own. It feels liberating, but then the coin flips, and my mood darkens. I guess it'll take time for things to settle down to some semblance of normalcy.   So anyway, the break up. I’m not going to go into great detail, because it’s still kinda raw. But I didn

Random Thoughts of an Alpha Female

Eggplants Are Purple?

Am I the only one who thinks that if you're going to be a checker in a grocery store, you should be able to recognize various kinds of produce? And we're not talking exotics here, just your basic everyday vegetables. I did my weekly shopping today and I had to identify four different things so the checker ringing me up knew what to look for on her list. I regularly buy a lot of fresh fruits and veggies so maybe it's just me, but eggplant, zucchini, Portobello mushrooms, and sugar snap peas are v

I've Got a Dark Alley and a Bad Idea That Says You Should Shut Your Mouth

I'm not sure where this is going, and I'll admit that from the beginning. Fair warning.   I guess I just want to know if we're ever gonna be okay. Is that too much to ask? I remind myself that I'm not the center of the universe, let alone yours, and that maybe you need some time to figure stuff out, but a lot of times, it doesn't feel like that's what is happening at all. It feels more like you're just trying to see who cares enough to make the cut or maybe to prove something to yourself, I'm

What once was is now lost.

And so it goes...

So there's this boy that's been hanging around the park this past month. (May) After about the first week of seeing him come in and out of our building to drink water etc, I made it a point to say Hi and etc, just because I make a habit of knowing all of the teens who hang around the park. Believe it or not their good kids, and very helpful. So we always make it a point to get to know them if they start hanging around a lot.   Anyways so he would come in, say Hi to me and we'd talk for a lit
