It Has Been A Crazy Week

Wednesday, July 30th, 2008

I haven’t really had a whole lot to blog about this week. I just noticed also that I didn’t do the normal Monday Muscle Madness post this week….. ooops! Sorry. I’ve kinda just been in a slow motion state of mind this week I guess. Sometimes I need a week of carelessness to refocus my mind on the things I need to be doing. Call it a short break from life that I am having right now…. yeah, that’s it. About the only things that I have gotten done so far this week…. well lets see…. Monday I spent the whole day at home playing Wii Sports Bowling…. Tuesday I spent part of the day out at the lake enjoying the scenery and sunshine which was interrupted by a phone call from my mother who had to make an emergency trip to Panama City, Florida to babysit my niece and guess who was nominated to drive her down there…. it was me…. yayyyyyyyy. So I frantically grabbed everything and jumped in my truck so that I could get home and drive her down there…. but halfway home I forgot that left my laptop on a picnic table and had to go back to the park and get it….. then I drove home and took a shower and went to pick up my mom for the four hour drive. We didn’t leave home until 8:30 p.m. and didn’t get to my brothers house until right around midnight last night. I spent the night and got up this morning and drove home. When I got home I cut my grass and did some laundry and then went shopping…. I didn’t buy anything major…. just a few groceries and new video game, a t-shirt, and a hat. And now I am at home and I am so glad that I don’t have to do anything tomorrow. All I plan to do tomorrow is play video games. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I also attempted to start writing a new personal journal this week because a lot of crazy shit happens to me that I want to write about but don’t want the whole world to know about, but I failed at that attempt so maybe I’ll try to start on it next week when I go have my quiet time somewhere.

I Think My Blog Has Been Discovered By A Co-Worker

Sunday, July 13th, 2008

In keeping this website and writing in my blog I have one rule that I strictly adhere to… I do not under any circumstances write about my job or where I work, but only for this post I will make an exception. I don’t know if I am right about this, but I kinda have a sneaky suspicion that my blog has been found by a person that I work with. It’s not anything that really surprises me, as I knew it was bound to happen at one point or another. It’s just kinda weird knowing that someone out there who thought they knew me is out there reading what I’m writing and really getting to know me for who I really am…. you know, the person outside of the job. I don’t really care about it to be honest. This is not my first website and it definitely isn’t the first time I got “discovered” on the internet. I mean…. I have videos on You-Tube, pictures all over dozens of websites that I won’t mention in this post, literally thousands of comments I’ve posted on other blogs that link back to my website…. so it was only a matter of time before someone I knew from work found my spot here.

But like I said, I’m not sure that this person really knows about my website. It was just a suspicion I got after he made a comment to another co-worker I was having a conversation with. The comment he made was something like “stop talking, get his blog address and leave him a comment”… or something along that line. I’m thinking he probably was just trying to be funny, but what adds to my suspicion is that this person knows I spend a lot of time online. Maybe he googled me, who knows, who cares? I certainly don’t. But you know how it is… when one person finds out, the whole goddamn planet will know it and if word spreads about my website at work, then a lot of people are going to be surprised I think, or maybe not. I don’t think I have any secrets that I hide. In the past few years I’ve gotten to be pretty honest about answering straight forward questions with a straight forward answer. If a person is not afraid to ask me about something then I am usually not afraid to answer them honestly as I have somewhat discovered, however it is not always true, that those who do ask the questions are the ones you can trust the most. So I don’t think I’ve written anything in this blog that would surprise any of my co-workers all that much…… but it’s still kinda weird knowing he or they are out there “reading” me. Whatever!

Latest Happenings In My Life In June 2008

Wednesday, June 18th, 2008

I already posted this on my Glee Profile Page but if you weren’t one of my friends or contacts there then you would have never gotten to read this and I didn’t feel like writing it all over twice so I copied my blog post from there to here. So here it goes……

Over the last few weeks I have been trying to spend more time getting outdoors to go walking and try to burn some calories so I can lose my love handles. It’s been fun but I have a blister on my left big toe that just won’t go away. Either I am walking too much or I need better shoes. I don’t know. I have always been a long distance walker from the time I was a kid growing up until now in my late 30’s and never had a problem that much with blisters that I can remember. It’s not really a big deal. It’s more annoying than anything else. Anyway……. the summer is going great so far with my walking program. This past Monday I walked over 9 miles in 4 hours…….. hmmmmm maybe that’s why I can’t get rid of the darn blister :-)

I tore down my old beat up couch today and hauled it off in my truck to the garbage container. The couch was old and wasn’t comfortable to sit on anymore and I was tired of looking it at…. and besides that, I bought the couch when I was in a bad relationship and it was a reminder of that every time I looked at it so it had to go. Now I have no couch, but I’ve got a lot more space in my living room. I think I kinda like having the space more than I liked having the couch. My mom asked me where I was going to sit when I told her that I threw out the couch and I told her that I still have a chair. And on top of that, I never have any company over because I don’t have friends that would come visit anyway and the friends that I do have that would come all live out of town or out of state…… so I really don’t think I need to worry about having furniture all that much since I’m usually sitting at my desk in front of the computer ALL OF THE TIME anyway.

Lately I have taken a big liking to Pace Picante Sauce Mild and Tostido’s. I mean I like them a lot! It has become one of my favorite snacks.

My latest brainstorm effort has been designing a logo for a new jewelry shop I want to open online, but I am in no rush to start that just yet. It is a lot of work to do something like that and I have a lot of other things going on so that is just sort of a side project for now…. but at least I have reached a point to where I am thinking about getting back into my jewelry making and other crafts that I love to do and wanting to get back into having my own craft shop online. I’m excited about that.

Oh yeah, one more thing….. I finally made it through the past six months that I needed to get my attendance record cleared at work so I no longer have to worry about fucking up too much if I miss a day at work…. I won’t get fired now as long as I keep my act together and take time off WISELY. Life just got a whole lot less stressful in that way. I wonder if I can go another six months without getting written up for some bullshit and get all the other little crap off my record that is being held against me cleared off. That would be awesome, but I know that isn’t going to happen because of my “don’t give a fuck” attitude at work haha.

For those of you who don’t know about Glee, it is a community site for gay men who want to communicate with other men without expecting anything. What I mean is this that Glee.com is not a “hook-up” site as most gay websites of this kind tend to be…. at least it hasn’t appeared to be anything like that since I joined. I haven’t really spent a lot of time there and that is only because I just haven’t had the time to spend there but there seems to be a lot of nice guys to chat with and just chill out and relax with. Anyway I may talk about the site more again sometime once I get a better feel for it, but for now I’m gonna go watch a movie or go outside and enjoy the unusual cool air we are having tonight.
