What the what?!

There are no words for what has transpired in the last twenty-four hours.

All I can really say is that its very sad.  A sad day indeed.  I don't even think that sad is the correct word for usage here, like I said there is no way to define what has taken place.

In other news, after a long hiatus from the world of writing, I was finally able to write a poem.  Imagine that.  That was supposed to be such a joyous occasion but with the events that have just come to light, it is quite minuscule and meaningless.

Blah.  Too many feelings to handle.  Too many thoughts.  I need distractions.  I need something.

Infected.......

So a couple of days ago I was infected.  Its pretty bad, in fact its so bad I might not make it.

You're probably wondering what I've been infected with and how.  Its a simple infection of: exercise.

Thats right, I said exercise.  In the recesses of my chaotic mind, it was whispering to me for some time to go outside and play basketball.  Me, being the stubborn Taurus that I am, simply ignored this voice.  Eventually, after several attempts, the voice won over and I caved.  I went into the garage, cleaned off the dirty, dusty, web-covered basketball, pumped it up, bounce tested it, and went outside and played ball.

After being inactive for a long time, the first exercise I tend to get leaves me hacking up a lung, but surprisingly it didn't happen this time.  It was great, for the first time that I remember it wasn't poison to me.  I am a little sore still but I loved every second of it.

The following day I decided to get some more exercise, crazy huh?!  Two days in a row, is that even possible???  Yes, and yes.  I pulled out the bike, pumped up its tires, and went for a joy ride, wearing my Lynyrd Skynyrd shirt, sporting my new Aviator sunglasses, and ringing my little bike bell.

Not all infections are bad.  Gotta spread this sucker throughout my whole body, you never know, it might save me.

The Almighty 23!

I am now 23! Dun dun dun!

My birthday was a typical one for me. It was good overall I must say. Nothing fancy, no party, no friends, just family.

I woke up. Got ready. Played a video game shortly. Went bowling with my family, wherein we played three games, I won the first one by a large margin, and took second in the other two games. After the bowling alley we then proceeded to "Skippers", a lovely little seafood place that I have come to enjoy ever since I grew up coming here oh-so often. Then, once we were all stuffed with such delectable food we moseyed on home when we relaxed on the deck, at which point my grandparents came by for an hour or two.

As for presents, I already knew what I was getting from my parents because I picked it out, and my oldest sister had given me my present early while she was here, she gave me some shorts. The present I had picked out were some very nice sunglasses, and yup, you guessed it, some new aviators to replace my old broken ones! As for my other sister, I got nothing from her because she is broke and jobless, but I did have her company the majority of the day.

So, now that I'm 23, its time to make the best of it. You only get to be 23 once, better make it worth while eh?

A Bajillion Things!

It is finally nearing that time of year.  The time where I can run around and release all this pent up energy that has been festering and harboring within me, accumulating from being inside due to snow and cold, both bothersome weather types.  ;)  Snow isn't really bad, it is actually quite beautiful, especially right after it has fallen and lays undisturbed.

So, yes.  I will be going on runs.  It will be oh-so sweet.  I miss running around, playing sports, and such.  All my street hockey peeps are all grown up and married.  I stopped playing soccer years ago for no real reason, well I didn't know how to join the older leagues.  As for basketball, my favorite court and hoop are in bad condition.  So it leaves me with just running for the time being.

As for today, I went and watched "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past" with my two darling sisters.  Yes its a chick flick.  I tend to watch them, after all they are movies.  Only if they seem good.  None of that super cheesy junk.  It was an okay movie, nothing fancy.  Except for Jennifer Garner.  She is very beautiful.  And it makes me sad just like most chick flicks because I'm still alone.  Oh well eh?  Life continues on any ways.

Moving on, I get the next two weeks off which is very good because now I can study up on my A+ book and be ready to take it and get it out of the way so I can move on faster through networking.

Last Saturday was my brother-in-law's funeral.  It was sad of course, it is a funeral.  I'm glad he is no longer in pain though.  It was extremely horrible seeing him in such conditions, to see him whittle away into nothing and babble nonsense near the end.  He will always be remembered.  Always.  Rest in peace Roger Edwin "Bret" Williams.

This year I don't get to hunt.  :(  Very sad!  I had 8 bloody points and still didn't draw out.  WHAT THE HECK IS WITH THAT HUH!?!?!  Rigged I say.  I was completely and utterly cheated out of my tag.  My cousin drew out though with her 5 or 6 points she had.  Grrrrrr, not to mention I didn't draw out for a regular tag, which by the way I didn't know they started doing drawings for.  How lame is that?!  At least my father drew out for a Southern tag so I can go with him and camp it up.

Ahhhh it is also that time of year.........my birthday is coming SOON!!!!  And I mean soon baby.  I also love how the lilacs are blooming the same month as my birthday.

That concludes the randomness of todays session, tune in next time and don't forget to wear a smile on your face!
