New update

OK so its been a while and I think some updating needs to be done. I'm still stuck here, but getting closer and closer to freedom. Ive been told I should seek freedom from here for myself. But that isnt reason enough. I like it here, its my life, my home. I have no reason to leave. With all the shit thats happening out there, i'm safe here. But I have one reason to leave now. And i'll fight every second of every day to get passed it.The weekends still scare me. Because I cant face the gate al

Funny Story

Okay, so I really really don't want to have to explain how i dislocated my shoulder to all the lovely people who have asked.   Howerver, I realise that I am not going to be able to avoid it... SO you can blame this blog on all those horrible people who care enough to beat me over the head with a baseball bat and force me to post this blog.   Warning TMI coming up and it won't be pretty.   Okay.... I am NOT going to come out and say the words and no apologies for that. So here is an eupham

Twenty-Five Candles

so, today is my 25th birthday.   today is also 'R U OK?' Day.   these two facts would be mutually exclusive, except one of my friends inboxed everyone on my Facebook account and told them to ask me 'R U OK?' instead of wishing me a happy birthday.   so now I have 95 wall posts (and counting), all asking if I'm ok.   I also had the following interaction with my mother this morning:     it was somewhat amusing.   anyway, on the writing front, I can happily say that I sat down and pl

Me time and work time

I am not sure how to explain this without sounding like an idiot but here goes. Last year I moved home at my father's request so he wouldn't be alone. My mother had passed on the year before and to say me and my father get along, well it happens about as well as gasoline and a match. However, I being the person I am moved home. His health had taken a down swing and I didn't want him to have to deal with things alone.   When I moved home I wasn't even in the door 24 hours when he went on vacati

Why am I the only one?

I mean I look at something and I remember a connection between point A to point B, but people seem to not notice it until you start pointing it out to them.   One thing I noticed about people who have a really bad cognitive reasoning, they also have a very deep dislike of history. History to them is just words and stuff that happens without reference or meaning. I wonder if there's a link?   On some other notes, I am branching out with my own private tax and business consulting business in a

My uncle and the house

This weekend we went to Missouri to look at a house. It looks like we'll get it, and I couldn't be happier about moving back home. The house needs some work, but it'll make a very good home. I really like it, and there's so much potential. In addition, my aunt and her husband have a house they're fixing up, and it could be a house just for me in the future. I'll pay for it of course.   While we were there, we saw my Uncle David. He just has a bone marrow transplant. So far it seems to be work

Late nights and early mornings don't make me happy

Okay last night was inventory. That means hours of counting, crawling around on your hands and knees, and twisting to get into corners no one wants to be in. You hand count dozens of boxes of candy, cds and dvds by the score, and other things you normally don't care about either. The job figured they would be done with the counts at the latest by 2 am. Of course they didn't figure on the idiots they picked out to work with us. It also didn't help that this old man pulled something in his back.

And There I Was.

Soooo..... Isn't it incredible how fast time flies the older you get? I never believed it ever time i heard it, but here i am approaching my 24th birthday and thinking, "Holy Cow already?" It also has been just a bit over a year since I've been on GA. I'm happy to see a lot of new faces and the same old faces as well, it's a sort of warm feeling to come back to place you've been a part of for so long and reunite. Sooo what's been happening with me? Ehhh sadly too much. Still working too m

Just about two weeks.

So It's about two weeks before the baby is due. In some ways it feels like it's taken an eternity, in others it seems like it flew by.   I remember the first entry -which is gone from the site sadly - my fault, no comments please - where I was discussing how the fertility clinic staff kept asking me, you're done already? when I turned in my little swimmers. That still strikes me as quite funny that they think I wanted to take my time and enjoy it. Yeah, so much fun being in the little jer

September 11, 2011

You can't escape the date or what memories it brings up. I was teaching when the towers fell. The principal stopped by my room and called me for a moment out into the hallway for quick comment. Her comment, "There is something happening in New York City. They think we might have been attacked. Remain calm and don't let the student's know." The joys of working in a private school. Your mind is now subdivided between an attack in the city and your students in front of you. By the time the second t

Life's ups and downs

Granted that life has its ups and downs but lately everything seems to be such extremes.   I don't know how many have been following the fires down in Texas. It has gotten bad and a few of the people here on GA said it got close, but for one it got more than close. Rustle lost his home. The fire swept through and wiped it out. Luckily he was given notice and managed to escape with his dogs, a few items, and his partner. However their home is now gone. When tragedy strikes you feel bad but when

Friday night and a new blog

Seems these things have a life of their own. I never know what is going to come pouring out in them so I don't even try to stop it any more.   First up, I managed to post Devil's Wager. This was my fun little twist on the idea of Good/Evil and what happens when they run into each other. I play with the big guns here and as usual I put my own spin on it. I would say it was a quick read but it was 12 pages exactly. My stories lately might be short but I try to fit enough into them all.   Secon

Some insight into my Anthology story

Well, I promised to challenge myself to write a different kind of story and I did just that.   My story is called Reflection and it is split into three parts: Part I Symmetry, Part II Mirage, and Part III Revealing.   In a few words, this story has sex, power, depression, kindness, and a life fulfilling concept embedded within it.   The next couple paragraphs might be a little too literary, but I want people to understand why the story is like that:   If you read my story from beginning

Nightly Ramblings.

So been on a bit of a writing jag lately. I crafted this really wild story that Frosty is still editing for me.I guess if this doesn't get me excommunicated from the church nothing will. LOL   Then today I finally tackled one of the prompts I put up for people. If I can get all my handwritten notes typed up I will put that story up tonight. I'll forewarn everyone I am playing games with Fairy Tales again. I like twisting them to fit my own needs.   I pulled out the recipe for the zucchin

A hodge podge of stuff

Lately my blogs have been spotty. Sorry about that. I have been all over the place trying to get things done. Seems I have problems popping up.   1) If you have been reading the blogs you know I finally got stuff out in the mail to Frosty and Mark. Well, it seems I screwed up with Frosty's stuff and missed a zero in her zipcode. However, the rest of it is correct and even with the one error it does state it is to go to India. Somehow the package is now in Louisiana on its way to Florida follow

30 days to go

30 days from today I'll board a train to Chicago where I'll spend one night. Most of the next day will be spent in Chicago's Union Station waiting for the Empire Builder to take me to Seattle, WA.   Since my son confirmed he was will to put me up (or put up with me) for however long it takes to get an apartment of my own, I won't have to spend any money in a motel. My biggest expense will be the rental car I'll have until I find a car.   30 days and counting ....

The world is small

Some days ago, I read my various entries in GA: 14 blogs in 2011 (not counting all the other since 2006), 1640 posts, and not to mention countless comments !   My only regret is: having just a knowledge of "practice" English, sufficient to communicate in my business work and my travels, but not to allow me to write in the language of Shakespeare all the events that happened to me and to convert them in stories I could write for my pleasure and perhaps for that of a reader.   Despite these sh

Simply playing catch up

Today has been a long day. I woke up with a headache and it just hasn't left me alone at all. I left work early and came home and slept for hours. Then made dinner. Guess what, the sucker is still with me. I hate summer colds. They are the worst.   In the meantime I sat down and wrote out all my September and October cards. So all my friends with Birthdays, Anniversaries, and all my Halloween cards are done now. I also was a bit busy yesterday as I finally managed to tape up the packages I

Signs of Autumn

It isn't even nine am as I write this blog. Yeah I usually write mine in the evening but I go to work shortly. I am sitting here with the room feeling cool and looking out the window into the yard.   Across the street the neighbor has hung up yard signs that say back to school, have fall leaves on them, and pumpkins. My father is digging out his fall collection of flags for the yard as well. The mums my next door neighbor planted last year are already growing up to a large size and will be blo
