...And now for something completely useless...

Been away from the old blogsite this past while. Busy with the time killing mostly, but part of me has been dreading coming back to the 'wailing wall' as it were. Some fairly eventful days have bled through my hands, like sand, and I find myself telling no one at all about these things. Maybe it's an effort at mystery... or an attempt at character building in my own odd way... meh.. maybe I just don't feel like sharing. I have been quite selfish lately. The social went well and everyone seemed to have a really good time... as well as a fantasmorgia of a Beeryamid was made, a more impressive man made structure I have never seen. Well okay that's complete malarkey, but it was still fun to build.. namely because we had to drink to make the damn thing complete. Eiffel Tower.. PFFFFFFFFFFT.... Leaning tower of Beer cups puts that eyesore to shame I say! I have some pictures on good ole Facebook if you have access and a desire to check it all out. Overall, the ni...

Decisions

Isn't that the glory of being humans? Even religions prize the ability of free choice, it's what makes the choice of religion more valuable than forced doctrine. Some days I just want to smack my forehead at the bad decisions I make. Sometimes I want to smack my friends for THEIR bad decisions. I wish I had a strong crew watching out for me like a buddy of mine does...yet with all the wisdom and insight and care of these people around him, he continues to make the worst decisions you can in a situation. Who knows... maybe others feel the same way regarding me.. or you.. or whatever. It's all perception anyway. I know I have made some bad calls. God knows we all have, but a few choices seem to stand out and linger in the back of the old bed pan. *** BEST typo EVER!!! I MEANT to say Brain pan... although in my world.. it's pretty hard to argue the difference.. heheheh.. I'm so damn funny!*** Wouldn't it be nice if we had a do-over now and then. Or maybe if w...

Relationships?

The past few days have had me pre-occupied with helping out a friend who is going through a bad break up. As a guy, my support and advice can only go so far... but even so.. drowning out the memories and the hurt heart goes a long way towards recovery (At least in my opinion). So, Lots of hanging out and maybe drinking and just trying to have some good times to ease the sting away.. You know.. makes sense right? I won't get into the cut scene of visiting the ex with my friend and how the ex's new ...'friend' called two carloads of buddies to come tool us up and the ensuing ugliness... This week has been full of stories. Going to work to get fired and coming out with a raise, meeting some new people that remind me strikingly of two toy poodles with A.D.D. who tell the worst stories I have ever heard in my life, drinking till morning, crazy boob grabs! Man... it's been a wild one.. and me without the camera these past two days! Thats it! The camera comes w...

It's just one of those days...

Well now, as night creeps it's way slowly towards dawn, I sit and type instead of sleeping like I should. Maybe it's the events that have been transpiring lately, maybe its the goofy weather shifting back and forth, or maybe I'm a big suck and don't want to go to the dentist tomorrow morning. I loathe the dentist. Nothing personal mind you, should any dentisty types be reading... but just a traumatic childhood experience soured me early on. It's a hard thing for me to have the gumption to go... I can get pretty cagey at times. "it's just a cleaning Ryan, focus, you can do it!" ... Inner monologue there.. self hype... good times. Thank god I'm single. I don't have to shame myself in front of any 'significant others' So uh yeah.. I had some stuff I was going to write about, but now I don't want to. Privacy issues. but I will TELL you I was going to write some good stuff... and tease you and then not write about them muahahahahha...

It's nice to be missed....

Ahhhh.. another hard day at work. Tomorrow looks to be much the same, so I need to steel myself for the oncoming rush of.... well, nothing. Maybe I'll be able to do my job. Maybe not... either way I have some plans to wile away the 10 laborious hours. Mostly involving small unit tactics in an urban environment.... I hate that I don't get to use my military training in 'the real world'. But!!! Get me a Costco sized bag of elastics, and a few willing slackers... and I think I can arrange old school king of the hill type stuff. muahahahhaah... Coming back to work was definitely a decision hard to come to. I think I made the right choice for the short term because you know, being paid is nice, but moreso to keep the brain occupied. That mass of gray matter upstairs, besides feeling squooshy and keeping our heads from being lopsided, is pretty impressive overall... and when you get bored... you notice how impressively restless that stuff can get. Or maybe i...

Strange Days

Tuesday; Day off.... sort of. More like errand day, but whatever, It is not work and that says it all for me. So. My first couple of days back to work and what did I do? Sat and read my novel, Facebooked, tormented my co-workers, wandered around the building like a caged animal, and generally made a nuisance of myself to any and everyone I could find. Tech problems with my computer. Go Figure *evil grin*. Hopefully the tech folks will have it all fixed up by Wednesday, but it could be all week.. and shucks.. I guess I will have to find something to do to keep occupied. I have some ideas. muahahahahahh Yeah, so that's work, and really, not much to say there. A bit heartbreaking when everyone seems to be asking me about someone I came to work to try to STOP thinking about.... One day at a time though, or so I am told... repeatedly....annoyingly..by the people in my world. So in order to drown out my personal stuff.. I fill my time with friends, parties, socials, errands...

...On House sitting

Ever notice that when you are in a home that is not your own, the noises are way different? Maybe that's just me but as I sit here in this strange livingroom filled with pictures and knick knacks and a staring cat that is judging me I'm sure, I just don't feel comfortable. In fact ... resting easy is damn near impossible. Not that the place is bad or anything is wrong, it's just not my place I guess. And that cat... *whispering* alllllways watching.... judging me. Anyone else watching Britneys walk of shame these days? Wow! That girl is fucked UP! Hahha, and she is in more legal trouble because she ran over a cops fot as she left a custody hearing? How exactly do you do that.. really.. how bad of a driver must you be?!? And on bad driving.. anyone bothering to read this should watch Canada's worst Driver.. that show makes me laugh. I jokingly told my cousin that he should be nominated for the show because of his 3 accidents in the past year. He was sh...

Welcome to November

So another month has been packed away forever. October has been an up and down roller coaster ride. Tis done! I think I will be back at work very soon. It is time for me to get back in the game no matter whats going on in my personal world, and I really... REALLY need the distraction. Halloween was a great time. The house partying, the Karaoke'ing, dressing up.. well, it was fun. I have pictures on Facebook for the folks who happen to be on my friends list. I still find it humorous to watch really drunk guys trying to have a go at it. Barely standing and trying to swing rubbery arms.... makes me laugh every time. I tried to get it on film, but alas I was too slow on the uptake. Of course the 'fight' broke out at the same place it happened at last time. The venue shall remain unnamed. *scowl* November has me house sitting for a friend.. .just a weekend though. I can't really handle being in strange places trying to sleep. I may sneak back home to sleep. ...
