Then don’t come around, because I’m going to burn one down

Oh brother. I can’t tell you how tired I am, but exhausted I think may actually come close. I woke up this morning and if my body could talk, it would have chewed me out to the high heavens.

Work has been slowly eating at me. It’s slowly starting to creep up on me, so afterwards I decieded to go fishing. I think I’ll be making that a regular outing for me. It’s so peaceful and relaxing. Tonight was perfect too. The moonlight kept shining and helped me to bait my hook. The pelecans were out in full force tonight too.

So very peaceful.

My father called me tonight too. We talked for a bit, and of course I was still fishing. Its always nice to talk to my old man.

Great times …

So here I am. Sipping on my rasberry ice tea and mowing down some white chocolate macadamian nut cookies. oohhh so tasty.

This song, is so great. Of course he’s talking about pot, which I’m not too big of a fan of it, however I can’t knock it. I think the reason I like it so much, is he actualy said in a live dvd snippet I was watching, some people were "So uptight they need to take a hit" and other people "Who take to many, and lose sight of their dreams."

It doesn’t even have to be pot, or smoking or anything for that matter, anything abused can make us loose site of our dreams and in some cases, it doesn’t even take a bad or illegal habit to lose site of our dreams. Sometimes we get veered off from time to time.

And that’s okay, it’s called life ;)

Peace all!

o.0 And you thought I was strange.

Today was a weird one for sure. For the first time in a very long time, things just seemed to work. Almost as if I wasn’t in control of my life(professionally and personally) or even in control of the simplest of things. I think it started today when something that I was working on never works the first time, did. Another weird thing happened when it turned from 80 degrees out to freezing cold. I didn’t have a jacket or anything, and out of nowhere I get a package from the mls store with a hoodie inside of it. I needed one big time, and it’s almost as if it came out of thin air. I had thought I ordered it 2 weeks back, but unfortunately when I called the store they said no order had been placed in my name. I wasn’t expecting it at all …

A couple other things happened but I can already hear a few of you falling asleep behind your computers, so I won’t bore you.

However, today was an eye opener for sure.

It would seem to me that somebody is still working on their ark, and on it’s maiden voyage the carpenter is finding things wrong with it, or perhaps it is missing a few animals. Of the two, I’m not quite sure, but the amount of rainfall we’ve been getting lately, all indicators indicate that the indication of the ark is about ready to set sail. Sadly, I don’t think I was invited!

It did nothing but non-stop rain today which was awesome! What made it even more astonishing was the amount of hail we got. For a good half hour it rained and poured, and hailed, and hailed some more. I’ve quite honestly have never seen anything like it, and took pictures to share, although it doesn’t really do the amount of hail any justice.

o.0 And you thought I was strange. had I not told you that was hail you’d probably think that was snow! In Denver? No way?! Go on …

So, with the crazy rain and hail, and with the simplest of things beyond out of my control for once. It was a great day to say the least.

Mr Einstein Sir, I couldn’t agree with you more ….

My Cohiba and Caprisun. Life is good.

It always feels weird going to Brendens shindigs. Perhaps because here we all are sitting around a porch, 50% of everybody is over 40, and the other 49% are pre-teen, and then there is me.

Of course we get to talking, I’m there, sipping on a beer and the stories come flying out from left field. Most of which require the kiddies to leave which in itself is hilarious but to make matters even more awkward for myself I often feel like I should be leaving the room too! When we eat, there are two tables setup. The "adult" table and the "kiddy" table.

Part of me wants to sit at the kiddy table again, and the other part of me wants to sip my coors light and puff on my cohiba with the adults.

I suppose I haven’t offically transitioned myself into that mindset yet, which in itself is odd. You would think being a 22 year old would mean your officially in the adult mindset. I know I am, but there is a part of me that wishes I was in elementary school, afraid of the girls with coodies, or playing with those cool building blocks that would put the marble in and watch it go. The days of science fairs, soccer tournements, cleaning the couches out for loose change and sneaking over to the Mrs Bairds bakery for twinkies. Long walks to Allsups for their awesome chimichangas/burritos, rug burns from me and my sister fighting or even coming home from a long day of playing to see my parents cuddling on the floor jamming out to Journey.

I never realised it, until now, that my parents laying together on the floor was pretty similiar to what I’m doing now, just in our own sepearate ways.

Its amazing how life works out, and even more so how amazing one minute your completly oblivious, and the next second everything all seems to make sense.

I found myself smiling as I grabed my Caprisun and puffing on my stogy. Of course, everybody laughed and poked fun, who drinks a caprisun and smokes a stogy at the same time? I guess I’m the only one! One of these days though when I’m old and gray, I’ll tell the neighborhood kids I had a Cohiba and Caprisun back in my younger years.

Perhaps I’ll get a laugh …

I’ll post more tommorow. Until then, I’m pooped.

*insert witty subject here*

Today was a pretty good day. It was drizzly out all day long which was really nice. Shame I couldn’t enjoy it more, but the view from my desk was a good one. I’ve felt sleepy all day, but now that it’s night I’m wide awake.

Well, sortof …

The last few days given the weather I’ve just come home and relaxed. It feels really good just to watch football all day in a super clean apartment. I can’t remember if I said that or not, but I cleaned the apartment super clean. Only thing I have left is my bathroom and bedroom, but in due time.

It’s going to help tremendously when it comes time to pack, which will be soon. Very soon.

Jess has already left for Kansas. It seems kind of surreal to have this huge apartment to myself, but I imagine it’s good for me to get "warmed up" to the thought of me being alone at my other apartment.

It’s times like this moment where I wish I could either fast forward my life 6 months, or take a quick peek 6 months down the line …

It’ll be intresting. That’s for sure.

Lets go … don’t wait …

Yet another great, eventful, productive, cleansing weekend I’ve had. Yesterday we went to the Rapids game, and before hand we went to Famous Dave’s BBQ. WOW. AMAZING! It was so damn tasty, it should be illegal. I had a huge baskett full of "rip tips"(no idea what that is, but it was damn good), it came with corn on the cob, and a piece of cornbread, PLUS, two sides. I seriously felt bad afterwards. I ate sooo much and they probably had to butcher a whole cow just for me! It was so good. Nothing I can say will justify it’s tastyness.

Rapids tied. Bastards! I’d rather have a tie then a loss I’d imagine.

Afterwards we had our usual beer and stogy, and talked. I really do enjoy both brenden and denise’s hospitality. I feel weird though becuase it’s like talking to my dad. He’s always got good advice to give …

Speaking of which, I’m going to see how much it’s going to cost to get a 1Bedroom condo. I’d rather do that than rent an apartment. /sigh

What else? oh, my room is a PIGSTY, so is my bathroom(both on my to-do list to clean) however I cleaned the place up so she’s sparkling now!

jess is gone, so I decieded to just clean. It kind of sucks, I’m home all alone … but this is the way it’s going to be from here on out so I had better get used of it.

I’m watching FSC so I don’t think I’ll be getting any sleep tonight. It’s non-stop football matches on… wooohooo baby!

Isn’t life great?
