High School seems so far away... Well, I guess it is since I am
an "Old Man" now. But thanks to my profession, it keeps me in the
loop on the popular music, art, fads, and a young lifestyle.
BUT... to reminisce about the past. It's fun and brings up stories
we all love to tell and hear and share. To be able to look at the
20 year old photos or talk to the kids leaving HS and say "I remember
when..." is actually kind of fun.
I hope by the end of my life, I will have many MORE experiences, stories
and pictures to share.
Life is but a journey. Death is but another experience.

Crisp winter mornings. The smell of burning fireplaces.
Watching football curled on the couch. Rain (finally).
Flooded streets and gutters. Accidents. Bad Drivers.
Braving the mall. Packed parking lots. Parties, parties,
parties. The sound of children on vacation.
Thinking of past holidays. Appreciating what you have.
Working to move forward in your goals. Making plans for
your holiday (Xmas, Hannukah, Kwanza, etc.). Asking “What
are you doing for New Years?”. Christmas music.
Missing friends and loved ones, far away.
Just thinking of the good times.
Always remembering the past.
But looking towards the future.

During Thanksgiving, when taken out of context the following sound offensive:
1. Talk about a huge breast!
2. Tying the legs together keeps the inside moist.
3. It’s Cool Whip time!
4. If I don’t undo my pants, I’ll burst!
5. Whew, that was one terrific spread!
6. I’m in the mood for a little dark meat.
7. Are you ready for seconds yet?
8. It’s a little dry, do you still want to eat it?
9. Just wait your turn, you’ll get some!
10. Don’t play with your meat.
11. Just spread the legs open and stuff it in.
12. Do you think you’ll be able to handle all these people at once?
13. I didn’t expect everyone to come at once!
14. You still have a little bit on your chin.
15. How long will it take after you stick it in?
16. You’ll know it’s ready when it pops up.
17. Wow, I didn’t think I could handle all of that!
18. That’s the biggest one I’ve ever seen!
19. How long do I beat it before it’s ready?
UUUUUGH!!! I hate being sick. Being sick to me is a BIG waste of time.
I don’t like laying around doing nothing. I am always doing something –
as simple as side work, surfing the web, updating my Blog or MySpace page,
reading comics (or updating the database), uploading photos to the Flickr account,
or even cleaning the apartment. Sure, there may be some times of laying around
watching some shows I DVR’ed, but not all day on the couch watching the boob-tube.
Yesterday’s weather made me appreciate the coming of winter and missing
those dreary, rainy days that are foreign to San Diego. I like a change
in weather. Being a native I am sure others of the native variety not to
understand but I like a change of seasons. Sure I never had to dig my car
out of a snow bank or hide in a storm cellar while a tornado rips overhead,
but I can enjoy those things from afar or at least visit places without
having to live there.
As far as my “real life”… well, change is good, right? In the midst of
that and as usual,when one shitty thing happens it is followed by a
plethora of good in other areas of your life. Just don’t give up on finding
something good. It will come to you when you least expect it.
Of course I talk about the opposite sex. Women. Love them. Hate them.
They aren’t leaving anytime soon and I don’t want them to anyways.
I am idealistic. I know I will fall in love again.
Creative. Smart. Good Looking. Caring. They are out there. You are not
going to find them sitting behind a computer monitor, complaining about it,
or with a bong in your mouth while sitting on the couch.
Get out there. Make the change. Change is good.
