Good day to you. I took some sleeping pills tonight. Knocked me out big time, and I was not tired at all. So I forced myself awake a few hours ago, and I've been doing some work on the webpage.

Had a terrible interview today, just terrible. I'm not going to get into it, save myself some pride, since I've been killing myself with that lately. But, needless to say, I did not get the job. Oh well, I'm getting nervous now. I might have waited to long to get a job. I'm sure it'll work out though

Well, things have turned for the better in the personal life lately. Well, today was kinda good. I don't have too much to write about that, because everything is too 'hush hush' all the time.

Anyway, typing up these stories about my brothers and sisters, i get too nostalgic. It's cool though, and my brothers saw the pages right away, so it's good to know they are looking. I wish I could type stuff that's funny though. Sometimes I get in a damn funny mood, and I'm laughing at myself. I like that.

So what do you think. I need new exciting things to talk about. Really, I think the only reason I want to find a job is so that I can write more interesting stuff on this page. That's not cool, because I'm sure if I don't have as much time on my hands as I do now, this webpage will slowly start going to shit. That's why I'm in such a hurry to get everythign up. People are checking this everyday, because I'm updating it everyday. Got to keep doing that.

Anyway, somebody send me a line. I want to write some more personal stuff, but I've done so much in the past week I don't know what's left.

Oh yeah, download Little River Band's "Reminiscing". What a great song.

Good day. I was planning on going to see 'lord of the rings' tonight. By myself, yes. That's ok though. Umm... it's good to see movies by yourself because... ummm... yeah... My brother asked me to help him with his page. So i changed the layout for him a bit, did some graphics. Nothing great, I only spent about an hour on it. It's actually pretty cool, because he's kinda obsessed with his webpage, and I spent nearly all my time working on my two that I have going. I think I could work on these pages 10 hours a day, everyday, and spent over a month yet before I'd be happy with them. But of course, that's boring talk.

So i didn't have to be a loser going to a movie by myself. I was a loser sitting at home working on webpages. What a geek I am sometimes. I had a fun time writing up the story about my McDonald's Ladyfriends. It was good remembering that. Got me into a good mood, and I wrote up some fun stuff. I miss those times sort of. It was fall, I was at football practice till 6 everynight, I worked about 25 hours a week, going in at 630 and running the drive thru till 11. I dont' know how i did it, Jody was around then too, it was so demanding on my schedule and i just didn't give a shit about any of it. That's cool. Now I get pissed when I have to go to the store to get some hamburger buns. Am I getting lazy. Maybe because I'm not working, and not talking to a whole lot of people... sometimes i go a whole day without saying a word aloud. That's pretty weird. Well, maybe not, because I have conversations with my kitties when they are willing to listen. Maybe I'm forgeting how to talk, and whenever I want to have a conversation with someone, I'll type it out and print them off a copy. No, that's stupid.

I do get lonely though. When Heath leaves for a while like this, it get's pretty boring. I hate being by myself, I couldn't imagine having my own apartment, all alone all the time. I have to do some sort of job where I'm talking all day. It's nice to go down and talk to Heath for a while, I end talking to him about WWF. I know nothing about it but I know he's interested in it, and it's good to talk to someone in person for a while. Sometimes, on my daily trip to the Osco Drug, I end up reading some magazines there hoping someone comes up and we can start up a conversation. No, I'm not that much a reject. I don't understand how some people can just want to be alone all the time though. Like Henry David Theraue, and his Walden Pond bood, or J.D. Salinger. Ugh... I don't think it's a mental problem that I have. Maybe because I think so much, that I'm just afraid to be alone with my thoughts. Probably why I always end up typing up these long ass journal entries. because it's like i'm talking to someone!! yeah yeah, rip on me all you want, just leave the eye out of it, and the big head, because I'm a little sensitive to those.

It's cool though. Wish me a good thursday, I have a job interview at 11am at a little computer company, I'm going to put Tuesday's fiasco out of my head. I'm already making excuses for myself if it doesn't go well. I need to be positive though, i'm cool right, i'm good at it, i'll be ok, yeah, pump myself up!

supposed to practice tomorrow night for softball. My glove is in Heath's trunk in Chicago however, so I don't know what I'm going to do, because it's a scrimmage. Sucks, I don't want to miss it either, Jonny will be kicking my ass.

Alright, enough for tonight. Have a terrific day those of you who get to work. I'm mildly jealous. I'm going to hang with the kitties for a bit, then see if i can get themto sleep in my bed with me.

(whinny voice)"i hate to sleep alone"    phmfff... fuck it, I'm just kidding. I'm way overtired so you can excuse the strange entry here. So,                 I'm Out!!!

I dont really want to do this page for a while anymore. I'm too busy working on all my projects now. I don't even want to type in this diary. Yeah, my personal life is in shambles, utter shambles. That's ok though, the business is booming, and i don't even half time to think about anything. So I'm good. I'm goign to start a new life now. The past is gone, all of it. the only thing i'm keeping is my roomate, because i don't really have a choice, and family of course.

yeah, so it's over, i'm not going to hang out with people i used to work with anymore, i'm not going to talk to old friends on the internet, nothing, i'm starting over. so besides the occasional softball game, i should be good. My entire purpose in life is goign to be my business. So i'll work hard, get it going good in a few month's hopefully, then i'll have to leave for Tucson. I wish i could go tommorrow. Anyhow, I wouldn't check this site again for a month or so, there will be nothing, maybe a very occasional blog, or something.

Other than that, I'm out for a while, i'm going to live the life of a hermit, well, the same personal life, no going out, no making new friends, i'm anti-social boy! Ha, for those of you who know me, it was nice knowing you, if you didn't hear this from me already, we aren't talking anymore.

*note, this goes for everyone reading this except for family and heath, because we live together.

with that lovely note for the day, i'm out, take care of yourselves, if you ever continue to have interest in my life, i'm sure i'll come back to this page once i get into better spirits. could be the fact I haven't slept in 36 hours. Ok then, goodbye.

Signing off.

Ok, I'm back for a bit. After nearly finishing my 6th website this morning, I'm pissed at myself for how i set this one up. It's a lot of damn work now, and it's relatively big, so fixing it would bascially be re-doing it. Ugh, oh well, you'll have that sometimes.

So I assume you are wondering what brought me back to this page for an entry? Well, I'm quite depressed now, I've been all pissed off lately, and trying not to think about anything at all. Everything I've been touching recently that didn't have to deal with work, is just falling apart. So I was too pissed/depressed to put any entries into this so called diary, but situations arose today, that can give legitimate warrant to another entry.

My favorite kitties left today. Yeah, I know, I should have kept them. I didn't get a whole lot out of that situation, besides having a bunch of little cats running around for a while. That, combined with my working at home lately, I got so attached to those cats. Just kinda hit me about 3 minutes after they ran out the door so quickly. (i gave them away). One minute we are sitting on the couch together, working on another website, and seriously, 3 minutes later, they were gone. It's ok, they are just cats, but they've been good buddies lately. Someone to talk to when Heath is gone all the time. I really do hate being by myself. The two cats that I have are not very social at all, so I think I'm screwed now. You know, I could cook a meal by myself, and talk to all my kitties when I was cooking, makes me feel like someone cares about what I do. Now I just have these two shitty cats that don't talk to me except when they are hungry. And Heath, being selfish boy, wanted those cats gone. Ugh, it's so fucking depressing. I kept them too long, it's hard letting them go like that. The tiger striped kitty would always come as sleep on my lap when I would watch TV for a while. He'd walk around on my belly for a minute or two, deciding on what was the most comfortable spot, and then he'd stay there. My television attention span is about 20 minutes, so he would get all pissed at me when I'd leave, bitching a little. Then I would come upstairs, and do some work, and he'd come up and bitch at me to pick him up. So I did, then he'd bitch when I have to type so much. That's a cool cat. I really wanted to keep that guy. He was gone in 3 minutes. I tried to get a good 'goodbye' a few minutes before I knew they were going to get picked up, but i didn't realize how hard it would be to let them go until i closed the latch on the cat carrier. Oh well, maybe my kitty will be cool.

So, my last entry... I don't know what i was trying to do with that...

Hmmm... i was sitting downstairs for about 45 minutes after my cats left, doing nothing, just listending to a CD. I was getting damned depressed, I all of sudden got all of these things on my mind, like things that I've been pusing away for nearly a week now, all came to me. So I sat in silence with my thoughts, which was not cool.

You know, i feel like their is so much on my mind, and I don't have anybody to talk to. I absolutely love my business. It was such a good idea, and it's so fun, but that's all I have right now, and I'm not a person who can just submerge themselves in work. So I gave up my social life to start this. Not that I wanted to, let me explain. I got this call last week wednesday from a good 'friend' of mine. we talked about the business a little bit, like i always do, and then it was a, "so, I'm goign to pick up the cats sunday night". Well, i knew she was moving into her new place all that week, so i got pissed off big time. Why not ask me for help? What a slap in the face. Just a subtle way of saying, 'stay away from me'. Which is understandable. I think i just seem really depressed and all workaholic type lately, so I'm probably not fun to be around. But that sucked. It's like a breakup i guess, I guess I got 'dumped', which I cant say I'm really used to. Maybe that's why i'm hating myself lately.

Seriously though, I'm just completely sick of my life. I know, that's all depressed suicidal talk. I definitely hate that, but I'm just saying what's on my mind. I'm tired of nobody caring about what I do. I get excited about things, and nobody seems to care about that anymore. I remember the good friends and girlfriends I had years ago, I'd start talking about something and getting all excited, and they would to. I just can't meet anyone who gives a shit what I do anymore. Maybe I'm just becoming more boring, I don't know. Sucks though. Wish I could have some people to talk to.

So by no means is this some suicide threat letter. That sucks, I don't do that. I did it as a joke one time and got into some crazy stuff with the family. Didn't think anyone would take me serious, and everyone did. If i was going to commit suicide though, it would have already been done. I can't kill myself because I don't have the will to do it. The pain, the actual thought of not being around anymore, that's wierd. Yeah, I've probably given it too much thought, but still... My thinking on the subject is that I'm so afraid of dying, that I wish I was never born. but that's kind of easy to say, because i do wish I was never born. Life is such a hassle, and mine always seems to be these huge ups and downs. I'll make friends during one of my up stages, and then my life starts to go down, and they don't even know who I am anymore. I just tired of that. I understand there are ups and downs, but my life is just too dramatic for what i have going on. Nothing ever works out for me the way I plan things. It's just not worth doing sometimes. Maybe that's why I have to start my own business... I don't know. I don't know what can make me feel better anymore. Why don't you help me out a bit. I want to start over. Everything, just start over.

I don't mean this webpage to target anyone in particular. See, the person that I am talking to is the computer screen in front of me. So if it seems like I'm reaching out and grabbing you, demanding your attention and speaking to you personally, that isn't the case.

Also, realize that I get really really moody typing this page, as I never come and type on this just to come and type. Usually only when things are on my mind, and then when I'm working them out into computer format, my thinking changes and I sometimes don't want to put on paper what I'm feeling, or I'll be really emotional and put too much, you know what I mean. So, I know I need to send an email out by tommorrow morning, even though I have so much to do tonight and tommorow. I think it's really important. Or maybe not. Just, if you know me well, don't use this page as a way to figure out what I think about you, or how I think certain things are, because that's not how it's meant to be taken. I just get emotional, and need to write. So if issues arise due to something I've written here, call me and talk to me about it. I don't want to not talk to someone at all for nearly a week, then when I see them have them make a comment about something I wrote here. Can you understand that. I know, I'm really only talking to one person here, that's why it's mildly important that i send out an email by the am. Have to quick too, I'm on a strict = in bed at 8, up at 4am sleeping arangement to. I just feel there is more to do at 4am, more productive things to do, that at 11pm. Understand that.

Ok, a little sweat and tears put into this entry, i feel a little better. Hope everything is good with you. I miss you all, 5 days and I'm tired of being a hermit. So, stop by sometime, we can cook something up, or give me a call, I'm really busy during the day but never too busy to take a phone call. Over and out.


quick note, check out www.thedustsettles.com, it's up and running and I'm quite excited about it. I'm sure you won't, but just pretend like you did. Thanks

Not a day goes by, that the image of you isn't firmly planted and active in my ever growing mind.

Your beauty, your wit, your everything, keeps me going, keeps me alive every day.

Another morning greets me with the birds singing, the sun shining, the happy music humming in my alert, but hidden ears. Hidden from the world that forbids me to defeat this state of exrememe unconciousness.

However you are there, overpowering this state using a gentle, kind, unselfish, yet overpowering force.
A state that stands strong time and time again, but is somehow powerless, at its knees when your presence is sensed.

I awake to see you standing there, not by my bedside, not by my window, not by my door. You are standing there, my mind blocking out anything that may pose a threat.

Will you ever leave? Will you grow? My mind is fragile to the thoughts of you. An uncomfortable sense of elation, excitement, and axiety, but somehow pain that you are there. So close, but yet I can never reach you.

Resistence is useless

The agony is bliss


ahh... just some random thoughts, i woke up a bit early this morning, and was in the mood for writing.
