    Weekly Wrap Up (Jul. 12 - Jul. 18)

    By wildone

    We had an interesting discussion last week with the Weekly Wrap Up. I see the weather has broke in some places and yet others is getting worse 😮  Up here in Canada, it is so hot and dry we are burning up. Over 1000 wildfires going on right now   I wouldn't go camping now unless it was on a river or lake shore.  So back to one of the parts of the camping theme, I mentioned about swimming. So if you never went camping, or you like 5 star service in a hotel or you camped on a lake or you

All night long

Last night we had my birthday party and Im still kinda wiped out from it all. Everything started at 5 and my folks cleared out for the most part, which was a good thing. My dad and stepmom spent the entire day cleaning and getting everything set up for me, and I feel bad because my dad even got the hot tub cleaned out and ready but it was too cold for us to use   We had such a good time though. My buddy Jonny manned the grill and we had brats and wings, and someone else brought about 60 can

Help?

So I'm fairly technology-challenged and I'm sure someone here has to know this. I was thinking about getting one of those unlocked cell phones you can buy on Amazon. It says you can just stick in the SIM card you already have and start using it, but I remember the last time I got a new phone it wouldn't work, and it turned out the reason why was I had the wrong kind of card. (This might have had something to do with the fact that the "new" phone was really cheap and crappy and presumably a much

The lights are on...

But there's really no one home.     My attention span and short-term memory seem to be getting progressively worse with each passing day. I'm lucky to finish sentences nevermind multi-step tasks. It was always something I just sorta blew off before. "Oh I'm just absent-minded", "it's just another quirky aspect of my personality"...but it's getting worse, and it's starting to actually bother me.   I lost money again at work today...it's about the 5th time (that I know of) that it's happ

Muddled

I know I've said it before, but I hate being depressed. I'd give anything to be better, truly better, not this muddled, lethargic feeling I have now.   Okay, I'm not suicidal. That's a plus, I guess. Three doses of Wellbutrin a day and I'm not suicidal. I'm not too creative, either, but with all antidepressants, you have to take negatives with the plusses. Prozac erased my libido. Celexa eliminated erections. Everything works with Wellbutrin, except creativity.   Two doses a day and I'm more

Cold Sunday Afternoon

It's been about a month since my last blog entry, so I thought I should write something.   Not a whole heck of a lot has been going on in my life. I haven't really made much of an effort to meet people since I got back from Taiwan, so my social life is basically non-existant. I either don't have the motivation to get out there and do something with my life, or I'm too lazy. I've been beginning to wonder if I made the right choice to come back to the States. Things just haven't been working out

A Sad Note

This has been a weird week and I'm glad it's over.   We got hit this week, Wednesday, with the first major storm of the winter season. Though it was nearly as bad as New York state, it was still bad. We got hit with a wintry mix of snow, sleet and rain. To make things worse, add in the bitter cold and wind that followed it. The worst part of it was the people that were stranded in their cars on I78 for over 24 hours.   The worst part of the week came in the form of a phone call from Security

No words

Okay, I haven't written much more than nothing. I'm beat and I haven't done anything, not that I can do anything. I'm sleeping too much, then taking a nap because I'm too tired to do anything else.   Strange thing is, I don't feel particularly depressed, although being super lethargic and not giving a flip about anything is a classic symptom. Maybe it's just that I'm getting settled here, after all it has been nearly two months since I've been grounded. Or, maybe, just maybe, it's the three do

Sam's book report

Sam has struggled with writing for years. At first it was the physical aspect of writing. He had fine motor delays--mostly because he is ambidextrous, which means he didn't develop a strong right or left preference, which didn't give him the normal strength and control he would have had if he had been definitely right or left handed.   Sam also has ADHD. I know, EVERYONE seems to have that these days, but in his case it is legitimate. I know this because the medication he is on has made a

sorry about the heart attack...

So, Happy Valentine's Day everyone!   I should apologize for the coronary upset I caused a few of you yesterday, especially Davey... See a while back we had this... incident... where he thought if he didn't tell me something then I wouldn't have to worry unnecesarilly and I yelled at him So as you can imagine, when something rather scary and possibly dangerous occurs, you want to tell the people you love and let them know you are okay and even maybe... ask for a hug or two million...   An

For my readers

I wanted to do something different this time. I know it's been a good minute since I've updated, so I decided to do this here.....   I want to thank all of my readers, especially the ones who've followed Bodega Bay from the beginning to these last chapters. I just posted chapter twenty nine, and there's only one chapter left to go. I'm about half way through it, so it shouldn't be too long until it's done.   Bodega Bay was sorta like My Jump Off, in the respect that it was supposed to be an

A roommate?

So this isn't what I wanted to write about. I've been wanting to write a blog entry about an article I read recently in Entertainment Weekly, but this is something I have to decide sooner (well the other one isn't a decision at all ) so I'm doing this one instead.   Anyway, here's the situation. I have to move out of my apartment in May because they're tearing it down to rebuild luxury high-rise condominiums. They've pretty much already done that with all the other houses and buildings in

It's been a while

I haven't written a blog entry in I don't know how long so I think it's time. My life has been rather boring lately. I wake up at 5:30am, at work at 6, come home, eat, and repeat the process the next day. I do have some fun things planned though.   Feb. 24th - Party with some friends. We'll probably have a movie night because I have my projector in the living room giving us a huge screen, but we may just have some fun (all legal, I swear!).   March 12th - I think school starts either March 1

So close, and yet, so far away

I'm currently at 17 pages (5,300 words) on The Pastel Cowboy, which is okay, but I need at least another 6 pages, or about 1,000 words. It's going quite well, but not well enough as far as I'm concerned. It's been a real slog getting to this point and I didn't get as far as I wanted along the story's timeline. In fact, barely two weeks have gone by when I originally wanted to go nearly three months. I don't like writing in the micro, but events in Zach's life at this point are occurring rather s

any thoughts?

What's this life anyway? What's it to you and me, what's it to anyone, and who are we supposed to be? Make me a storybook, and write me away from here, I need it different now. Where we can wear each other for a while, and I'll lend you my tears if I could borrow your smile, and we'll get through tomorrow some other day, happy after, once upon these days.   - Chantal Kreviazuk, These Days   Okay so today is almost over for this year...   I was chatting to Davey the other day and we ende

I still don't believe it

the best thing in the world happened to me yesterday(friday night)   I though Myspace was just another place to delete spam till last night. She found me!!! My wife(long term seperated) contacted me on Myspace. some people would say that is a bad thing, but you gotta get the rest of the picture. I haven't been able to contact Her or my son in a long time, about 11 years. Well needless to say, all the thoughts of being rejected came flooding into my head causing me to go totally nuts.
