Wasting away the day.....

I love the weekends. Really... I just wasted an entire day today. Got up around 11, sat around til noonish, made lunch. Then I washed the car, got some new Wax as you Dry stuff, kinda like it actually, made the car shiny. Works for me. After that I sat around for a bit and just lounged. Around 2 I took a shower and headed out to Erin's. From there we just sat around and chilled out in front of the TV. i cooked dinner for her and her mom, chilled in front of the TV. Now I'm chilling in front of the TV on the laptop, whiel Erin sulks after seeign her cell bill, I'm kinda doing the same... You don't want to know. I'm flat broke. Not sure what else we're doing tonight, but it's surely said that it won't be anything that involves money. At least a lot of money anyways. I need to get out of here...
Matt will be home in a month... can't wait... miss the guy. Miss the garage time and the times we go out and just hang... we don't do anything but talk to people and just chill. I gotta go...

A quick post and then off to Erin's...

So what do you think of the new layout? I like it. Sure it's canned, but I spiced it up a bit on the sidebar. Not done yet, but a change nonetheless. Tonight is a bumming night. After just chilling last night most of the evening and then getting to bed early, I think I'm going to try to do it again. Work was Ok today, nothing exciting to speak of. Spent all day playing with spyware, check out the security blog for an article on that soon. (shameless plug).
I guess I'll get off to Erin's now... smell ya later

Long overdue again....

It's been too long. OH well I'm just going to write some junk and get off here... other stuff to do.

I have a new blog started!

This doesn't meant that I will stop writing here but since I'm constantly telling people about computer stuff I've decided to start writing it down. This page will likely not change a whole lot for the time being, but I hope to have it grow over time. Check it out here.
-Money management is not my forte. I wish I coudl tell you all what kind of financial straits I am in right now, but I can't. Just know that things are bad and they will likely get worse over the next few months... In that same regard, others seem to be good at it and think that... well I'd better leave that one alone for now.
-Erin and I are wonderful. I coudlnt' be happier. Life is good.
-School starts in less than a month
-Matt comes home in less than two.
-I need a new job.
If you want to know more, ask me in person. I'm just not in the mood right now.

Planning the fantasy; living the dream

I really must say that things all in all are pretty dang good. I'm flat broke, I'm about two shakes from leaving my job and finding something else, and school starts in about a month. Life is going well, really it is. I'm stressed, but not so much now, things are just floating along again, and that’s how I think I like them.
I spoke to Matt today, good things. Heh. He's doing well and should be home for his R&R in about 7 weeks. I'm excited to see him and catch up on some "garage time". He's been talking to Ali a lot lately, so I think that's keeping him sane. It's good.
Erin and I had a great weekend really, for having a bad day, it went pretty well really. Friday we just chilled out, made a Papa Murphy's pizza and just watched movies. Good things. Papa Murphy's has great pizza, if there is one near you be sure to check it out.  On Saturday we started out going to the Butterfly Gardens in Indy at the Zoo. That didn't happen, it looked like rain and I just don't think that either one of us were really in the mood. We went to Broad Ripple and then over to the Fashion Mall, good things. The only thing I bought was a new shirt for church that night, since I had something on mine from lunch/breakfast/the day before. We got back to her house and crashed for a bit, then off to church. I'm kind of starting to like her church, but the sheer size of it is still a bit intimidating for me really. I'll get used to it.
After that we headed to Street Dance. Quite possibly the coolest thing I've seen done in a smallish city in a long time. Kokomo has Ribfest, but I think this is better. We had fun, did a little dancing, ate a ton of food. Good things.
Yesterday was the first day of my boss being gone for 3-4 months at a contract site, this means that basically everything falls on me now. I'm the main point of contact for just about everything, it's cool I guess to have the responsibility but I don’t' know if I really want to have the stress and whatnot. We'll see how it goes.
Tonight it's off to the circus in Peru... Jake has a gig on the courthouse steps; Erin and I are heading up to see him and just chill for a bit... I gotta get back in my workout routine...
Anyways, time for lunch... catch you all later

Woo hoo

OK so I got this letter from IUK the other day thinking it was a bill, I just kinda opened it and wanted to know how much I would owe. Instead it's a congratulatory letter telling me that I got a scholarship for the next two semesters, not a full scholarship, but it will definitely help things along that's for sure. For those of you that know, this is a much needed blessing.
Things are pretty great really. Went to Michael W Smith and Mercy Me concert last night, a great time. First concert I've been to where people actually sat down. Weird, but cool nonetheless. I'm just happy right now again. Just need to keep the peace and smile now and then. I'm off... more later or something...

I am stressed...

That's pretty much the only thing I can come up with to explain what I feel like right now. I really don't' know why, well I guess I do but still it's not something that would usually make me feel like this. I mean sometimes I get a little worked up about stuff and then I can blow it off, but basically for the past few days or so I've been like totally overloaded with "stuff." I don't' even know what it is that's really bothering me to be quite honest. I mean yeah friends, work, school, and family have all been a little hectic lately but ya know... I can normally put on a happy face and go on about stuff. I dunno honestly I've had a lot of fun lately with everyone I mean overall at least. We went to the fair last night, going to the Michael W Smith concert tomorrow. I mean all in all everything is ok, but its' the little things that are just eating away at me. I wonder if this is all coming on because I've pretty much ignored this thing in the last little while and just haven't' taken any time for me or something. Hmmm... Something to think about I guess. Anyways though, last weekend was awesome, just like home. I mean really, wow, I've never been so... comfortable and just well at home. It was good, I'm happy for what I have and for what I will have. For those of you, who feel the need to be uncomfortable with it, kiss off. You can't' be two-faced for that long and expect me not to find out about it. I heard what you said and who you said it to, some day the truth will come out and I'll make sure that your humiliation is much greater than mine. You've done worse than I did, and I can prove it. An explosion is brewing, and even though you're not totally responsible, you will probably bear the brunt of it... learn to deal or get out.

Another Wonderful Weekend...

I must say that the last few weeks have been some of the most amazing ever, it's finally summer and we're finally doing stuff. Lets see where to start, Friday we went out to dinner and then over to Kyle's nothing too exciting, but fun nonetheless. On Saturday I watched my friend sell his soul to the Guitar Center in Castleton for an amp. A nice one, but holy crap, it was freakin' expensive. Then Erin and I went out to see Harry Potter with her cousins, good times. Stupid window. Then we went to the hot tub and just relaxed and stuff, parents made us dinner, can't be a good bloody steak. After watching my first John Wayne movie, I finally went home. Sunday we went back down to Castleton, to the Mongolian BBQ. After figuring out that downtown was a bust and that we were pretty much bored, I was finally excited to see the fireworks. You see to some people the fireworks are just that fireworks. But to me they actually mean something. I feel like it's actually important to see them each year, I can't' explain why or what, but this year with Matt gone made it all the more important to me. He's called a few times lately, all appears to be well, he'll be home in like 60 days or something and I honestly can't wait.
You know what else was great about this weekend? The fact that I had yesterday off too! Didn't do anything. Well anything important anyways, just played some golf and washed the car. It was pretty cool. It's nice to be able to turn off your phone and just kick back for the day. We went lifting last night.... holy hell. I didn't' lift that much, but we played ball before that and I don't' think I've ever sweated so much in my life. The crazy thing is that I think I actually lost 2 lbs in the process. I weighed myself on Saturday at 172 and now I'm 170. Of course I realize that 2 pounds could be from the fact that I didn't eat before I got weighed or something, but still, it's cool. Now it's time to bulk up.
I dunno what is going on now, but I am just freakin' happy all the time. Erin has really just came into my life and made everything wonderful. This weekend is going to be great too; we're going to the Dunes to see her friends and stuff. I can't wait.
Sometimes just waiting is the best thing you can do, out with the old, in with the new. Thanks for all you've done, perhaps in the future we can help each other again.
