Be Patient. Stick to it. Don’t give up. All of which are life’s lessons learned usually by everyone at various times throughout their life. Some learn these lessons quicker than others. Some learn these lessons, and lessons in general, time and time again and yet still wonder, “Is the stove really hot?”.Be Patient. Something I’ve never been good at. I’ve always been a right here and now kind of guy. Everything has to be done quick, and any plans that are instant as apposed to long term, it’s a no brainer. Instant. Holds true when it comes to rebates at best buy. Instant or Mail-In. Of course … I’d pay more for the instant than to have to sit and wait for a silly mail in. Of course, this lesson learned for me was at a young age, and a bit harsher than most. I was 11 years old or so and I’ll never forget it. I was sitting with …

Haha, ok, I know. Cheesy right? It was an email I got today as I was on the lightrail heading to work. As of late I’ve just set my headphones down, stare out the window and just watch everything pass me by(including my stop). I spent an extra half hour or so on the lightrail this morning on accident. Anyways, I only say that to preface my thoughts and how I came to be. It got me thinking about the “L” word. It got me thinking about how wacky and insane and impossible it is. It got me thinking about how people view love, what people love, why they love, and I think more importantly how people love. Is it in their actions? Their words? Their thoughts?It got me thinking of this photo I took a while back. It made me realize just how differently people view love. Some love the chaos and disorder of their relationships, others want only …

“Run away, and live to run away another day”. I’m paraphrasing of course, but those were somewhat the words of Captain Jack Sparrow. Perhaps somebody in time of more historical importance said it, but for now I’ll credit Captain Jack.“Run away, and live to run away another day”. I like it. Unfortunately for me, I realized that’s how I tend to live my life. Preventative defense,bend but don’t break, however you want to describe it. I’m not sure I like it, although it’s always have been something I’ve done regardless. It’s a funk. A life long funk. Is it even possible to have a life long funk? I’m not sure, I hope though there are others out there like me.The glass is always half empty. Always preparing for the worst. Strange.I’ve had this conversation with myself at times. Although that’s not saying much. Usually conversations with myself(and I have them daily) go as follows:“Dude, your dumb for thinking that … …

Sometimes on my ride home from work, I’ll sit, without headphones, just staring into the abyss. My mind racing, and a giggle will usually escape my mouth. The only reason why is because when I think of my mind racing, I don’t think of a NASCAR event, nor do I think of chaos. My mind is like those money machines that you stand in, with a furious fan blowing dollar bills everywhere, damn near impossible to get any money. Money would of course represent my thoughts. If every thought in my mind were a dollar bill, Mr. Gates would be put to shame unfortunately.So here I am, sitting in my own little money machine, grabbing at everything, only to come back empty handed. Somedays it feels like the fan is blowing on low, and on those days it’s easy to organize my thoughts, Other days it’s like those damn swamp boats going full speed.Goofy thoughts I know. Only way I …

I swear … So I’m sitting here watching the NLCS game and a commercial for a product called “Ambien CR”. I’m not even kidding, this was one of it’s reported side effects.“Sleepwalking, and eating or driving while not fully awake, with amnesia for the event, have been reported.”Driving while not fully awake …lol, oh man. How do these products get past the FDA? Your guess is as good as mine.This weekend was somewhat wasted. It all started on Thursday, I left my debit card at Chili’s and instead of taking any chances I just decieded to be safe and cancel it. Of course, no cash means I couldn’t do any laundry, which happened to be my number one focus this weekend. So now my clothes in all it’s fury(and by fury I mean sitting on my floor standing taller than the rocky mountains itself) are left to sit for next weekend. Friday night i decieded to run a little …

It always happens. Whether it be visiting my sister, or my folks house, I always return to home feeling like a changed person. I’ve always wanted some family structure, some rhyme or reason to my day, some sort of order to my life. Mostly it’s just chaos, although ordered chaos as it may be, it’s chaos none the less. So when I get back from vacation I always try making promises to myself. Wake up earlier, go to work earlier, get off earlier, come home, have a regular routine, clean up after yourself, do the small things in life that make it more memorable, get things marked off your to-do list.Essentially after every trip I come home with every intention to do the inevitable.Act like a responsible adult.When I got home, I immediately cleaned my shack, went grocery shopping, put away my movies, dusted, overall a quick spring cleaning. I even cleaned my car. I know, crazy right? I think …

IAbout time! My Dynamo gear finally arrived just in the nick of time. I ordered all of my gear on Sept 16th, I know a magical day to say the least, and it finally got here today? Long story, basically my card didn’t go through because mls gear told me my card declined. Pretty Lame. I overnighted all 3 jerseys for my trip to Houston.It’s coming quicker than I know. I’m sure it’ll be finished before I know it, but I’m really looking forward to it all.Wow. Deja Vu. It’s coming quicker than I know and it’ll be done before I know, and I’m looking forward to it all. Doesn’t that just sum up life? For me it does … it’s spooky. I’m 23 years old, and it would seem like yesterday I was pretending to be a Ninja Turtle(good times, maybe another story later).Anyways, Halo is beckoning me …. I hope everybody is doing well.-kc     Blogged with FlockTags: …

Tonight has been somewhat weird. It was an emotional night to say the least with the rockies game. I don’t think I have a voice right now. When we got 2 runs back, I thought for sure we were done, good game guys, great run. Even the bigger nail in the coffin I thought was the padres were bringing in their Hall Of Famer closer. No way we can get 2 runs …. whew! Great great game.Go Rockies!So, I did it. I shouldn’t have but I did it. I’ve been wanting to get a semi-pro camera and so I finally decieded to get out the ole credit card and pony up. I couldn’t wait any more. I’ve been taking a ton, and by a ton I do believe that”s an understatement, of pictures. Exciting times. Friday I’m leaving to Houston to see my sister. We are going to head to the aquarium, and to see the Dynamo vs LA Galaxy.Awesome.It’s …
