Quitting Day

First off, I’d like to apologize to all three of my loyal readers for the lack of content these last couple of weeks.  I promise to do better from now on, and I feel like I can make that promise because…

I’m quitting my job today.  I won’t go into detail here, because that wouldn’t be appropriate.

Suffice it to say, this new company is lame-o.

A Day to Forget

No long posts, no sorry attempts at humor, nothing interesting to say.  It’s a bad day.

I hope it doesn’t get any worse.

Let Down

Do you ever feel disappointed by 99% of the people you know? Or maybe it’s not even disappointment, it’s more like the dull ache of monotony. Boredom.  People doing what they’ve always done, no surprises, nothing interesting or exciting. I realize that feeling this way is 100% my problem. Nobody’s doing anything wrong. I’m just in a place where I feel like starting a forest fire, just for a little excitement.

I’ve always been kind of a restless person, at least mentally. I’m not a manic depressive, and I’m pretty sure I don’t have ADD. I do seem to be up and down a lot, though, but I think that’s just a part of the human experience. At the moment, for reasons unknown to me, I’m down.

When it all shakes down, however, I have to accept that sometimes I’m just along for the ride.  The ups and downs just contribute to the overall human experience, and I accept that.  It means that there’s a mirror image, a good for every bad.  Perhaps the only person with the ability to truly let me down is myself.  Just a thought.

PS – If I know you, and you’re wondering if I was referring to you as boring, then no.  It’s everyone else but you.

Memorial

(Sorry, no post yesterday.  No internet.)

Spent the memorial day holiday in Bear Lake.  Good to see the family, but a bit tough to remember people I’ve lost recently.  I guess I don’t really have much to say on the matter.

Nana, J-Ryde – I miss you.  Rest in peace.

New Look, New Resolve

I can’t imagine there being many people reading this that aren’t of blood relation to me.  Whatever.

I’m going to take a page out of my homie Ben’s book and post something here once a day.

Please stroke my ego by reading and telling me how great I am.

New Blog

My homeslice Ben and I are doing the blog thing together.  This will be my last post here – not that I’ve been good about updating anyway.Check us at vinyldraft.wordpress.com k 

Thanks

A short list of things I’m thankful for, no matter the time of year:

My family. Absolutely, without a doubt, the most important part of my life.

My religion. Even though I have my issues, it’s a guiding force for good. Nobody can argue with that. And not even an atheist can explain away the calming force of the Spirit. I’m an intelligent, rational person. It’s not in my head.

Life. One of the smartest people I know once told me that “Nothing really, really good or really, really bad lasts really, really long.” As crazy as it sounds, that up-and-down rollercoaster makes me feel alive. I guess that without the bad, we wouldn’t know the good. That’s a comfort to me, especially considering…

Well, stay tuned. Something really, really good or really, really bad might be on the horizon.

Still

Words and ideas, headaches and the noise you make

The last time was the last time until the next time

And the echoes still drum, silent years after the beat quits

And they probably always will

After it all, what it takes is lost in midst of what was taken

That which is left is left unbalanced

Cold mornings and excavation, years without blood and words

Gravity is difficult to feel without falling, but the trip is worthwhile.

Here’s to… whatever.

So this is it.  The end of one thing, the beginning of another, the damn middle of most things.
