Thank you..... Jul. 8th, 2009 @ 04:04 pm
To my dear wife:

Thank you for coming to MY rescue.  There have been very few times I have ever asked for help in my life.  Thank you for dropping everything to come and bail me out.  I'm sure that it wasn't easy, I'm sure it disrupted your day and the baby's day. 

From the botom of my yeart:  I love you and thank you.

I got this from my boss Jun. 5th, 2009 @ 12:47 pm

Strange enough, I was sent this link from my boss.  He's going through a divorce and trying to hold his shit together.  I wish him luck.  I will pray to the gods for him.

Peace and all that other fluffy bunny shit!

Holy Crap Jun. 2nd, 2009 @ 01:28 pm
It just dawned on me that two weeks ago today, I deleted all my porn.... Like ALL of it.... Like... Seriously... ALL of it....  One of which was one I had been searching for years to find and finally got it.... and I... I.... I deleted it.

Wow... Times ARE changing.....

Uhhh What the fuck just happened? Jun. 2nd, 2009 @ 12:28 pm

Over the last 2 weeks, I have gone from having my life turned completely upside down to blissful calm.  I honestly would have to say in a matter of seconds.  Not minutes or hours mind you, but litterally seconds.  The odd thing?  The blissful calm has been sustained.... a ripple or two in the pond, yes... but no storm clouds, no hurricaines or tornadoes or whirlpools or tidal waves... Just a nice soft cool breeze and a few ripples on the pond.

I described it to a friend of mine as such:

"It's like taking a pressure cooker, filling it with water and chucking it into a 3000 degree blast furnice.  Then you pull it out when it is about to melt, the pressure inside is off the charts, and you just don't care anymore and decide to pop the lid, KNOWING that it will explode everywhere.  So you set yourself for the explosion and pop the top, only to find that there is only ice at the bottom of the pot and everything around you is calm, cool and quiet."

I have a sense of happiness and serinity that I never knew existed.  If you know how things were 2 weeks ago, to where we are now, it would probably leave you a little unsettled, but if you got to come along for the ride, then everything is perfect.


I don't know if I can ever possibly put to words how I feel... I have a confidence in myself, my mate, and my family that I can't describe.  I have a spring in my step and swagger that others notice.  I hold my head higher than ever yet can humble myself completely to my wife and go right back to being proud...

My wife "Fucking Rocks".

Stocks Apr. 24th, 2009 @ 01:01 pm
I am finding myself rather comical.  I have about 6 different stocks I have invested in here lately and I have a live streaming ticker that I obscess over all day.  I litterally look at it change like the code in "The Matrix" and get happy and sad based on whether the number goes up or goes down... whether it is green or red.  Red bad... Green good...  At this very moment, all my stocks show green. (Not overal since I bought them, but for today at least) 

I can't take my eyes off of it.  What's really crazy is I bought a few of them when they were VERY low and now they are on the "top stock picks" for 2009.  I'm excited.  This is college funds, vacations, new cars, or perhaps that little villa my wife and I always wanted in the country.

I could see raising the widge in the country... She could have a pony.  *snort*  Oh gods... The rest of them would have a fit.  "How come she got a pony?"

HA!

I have officially hammered my finger with a sledge hammer.  My floors are looking great.

I've invested in stocks. Not much mind you... a little here and a little there. So far, in the past 2 weeks, I have received at least 15% back on my investment. That's pretty damn good. :)

Crazy facts Apr. 13th, 2009 @ 12:43 pm
17 years ago today, I was driving back from San Antonio to San Marcos Texas on I-35. I was going over 70MPH on the interstate in my 1951 GMC pickup. I went to change lanes, on lane left because there was someone in my lane. I started turning the wheel to the left, and my truck started going right. In a moment of clarity, I realized that there was a problem with the steering assembly and that if I hit my breaks, my truck would turn sharply and would flip, ejecting me. I grabbed the wheel and screamed as I went through a sign on the side of the interstate and slammed into the wall doing over 60MPH. My truck didn't have seat belts. When I came to, I was laying with my head hanging out the passenger window and people all around me. I had a bruise on my thigh and my elbow.

That is, when I realized, that I had a purpose... a true purpose. It just took me almost 17 years to find my 6 purposes.

I'm sitting on a conference call, and one of the guys I work with said something about wanting to do something... and as I am sitting here listening to the call, they are running a webex about a product and a wave of an idea came over me.  I've got to find a non-disclosure ASAP!

Thanks!

You are The Devil


Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession


The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.


Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really "Satan" at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild - or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.

» Headache
My eyes are burning
My head is screaming
My scalp is peeling back from my head
Everything is bright

Colors are painful
Dark is loud
The lights are jumping about the room
I can feel the world turning

Everything is distracting
Air annoys me
My teeth plow into the base of my brain
Pain killers are laughd at

Oh yeah... Headache much?

» Tactical insanity
Sometimes I wonder about people I know.  I swear that they make the biggest effort to do the stupidest things and then feign ignorance.  When you call them on it, they look at you like you’re the one who’s nuts.  Is it a tactical, manipulative thing or are they just stupid?
