The 10,000 pound gorilla on my back.From time to time these gorillas are thrust upon me unknowingly, other times they are babies in which I grow and nurture to adulthood and beyond. All kinds of gorillas, financial, spiritual, friendship, relationship among many. I’ve had my fair share of gorillas on my back, and I’ve schlepped them along for various amounts of time ranging from a few minutes, to a year. Some are lightweight, these types are usually ones that after a few days or weeks you don’t notice. Others …. others are incredibly difficult and incredibly heavy with the burdens they bring along usually heavy enough to drop you to your knee and beg for mercy.In my short time here on earth, I realized I’ve been paying attention to the wrong details. All along, I’ve only payed attention to the how and the why these gorillas were placed on my back. How could this have happened? Why have I been …

This photo was taken shortly after I originally got Georgina. However, Georgina at the time wasn’t Georgina, she was a he, and his name was George. When I originally picked “him” up from the store, I was told that she was a he!Fast forward a bit later, and two geckos later, he was laying eggs and not so much a he anymore! It was pretty awesome, and very weird calling George Georgina. Very weird indeed.I’d also like to point out, this photo was one of the first few I took with my new camera.

It would seem as if everytime I blog as of late, it’s turned to a venting session or something catastrophic. Sadly, this post isn’t the exception. It’s been a rough year for me. I know, I’ve stated that within numerous posts and still, with a month and half to go, the ‘08 year isn’t quite through with me yet.It seems as if almost two years ago exactly (well minus two weeks or so) that I’m going through the same thing. I suppose that’s why I blog. It’s curious to see the blog post title in which I posted before, and as I’m going through the same situation, I think the title fits perfectly.“Even though I’ve come so far,  I know I’ve got so far to go and any day now I’ll explode”~ Rise AgainstI really do feel as if I’ll explode. It’s not a matter of years, months, days, hours or minutes but mere seconds. It’s amazing the amount of …

In the beginning of July, I was sitting at the FlatIrons Community Church service and the lead pastor was talking about community and the meaning of church. It went on, and that night I signed up to do some wheeling with some folks at the church. I’ve only been out once with them, but hopefully more times in the future.On this adventure, we went out past Boulder, out past Nedarland, and up a trail to a plane crash site in which both pilots died. It was a very creepy experience knowing that out in the middle of nowhere there were the reminants of a plane. Having said that, it was a great time. Hopefully more to come ….

Ok, so I said previously that I was going to make it all complicated, post regular postings below, only headlines up top. However, I changed my mind. I would really like to start writing more, but I just don’t see it happening, but don’t fret. It’s for good reason!I’ve been doing my homework, I’ve purchased all of the necessary hardware and so my next project will be that of a podcast! I figure if Jerry Seinfield can have a show about nothing, why can’t I? Ok ok, so it won’t be all completly about nothing. Over the course of time, I’ll start to have segments and such, but until then. Stay tuned.Exciting times are ahead!
