I was supposed to help my friend out with his front and back yard wooden fence this morning. He called me this morning and asked me to check the weather. This happened to be the worst day of the week for upcoming weather. When I checked the weatherbug on my home page, the graphic for today showed a dark cloud with a lightning bolt dropping out from beneath it. On top of the graphic I could see the word Thunderstorms. There was no % chance of thunderstorms. It just said thunderstorms.
It appeared that there would be a 30% chance of rain tomorrow and a 40% chance later on in the week. The forecast for today just said Thunderstorms. I guess the meterologists could clearly see this coming. I'll see if they're correct. So, with this change of plans my activities for the day were altered. I decided to spend some time on an Avatar. I met an Egyptian kid and a girl from Greece. It was pretty neat. |

| Writer's Block: Last Call |
[Jul. 27th, 2008|11:32 am] |
I make a phone call to my house's landline. This line is hooked up to the fax machine so no one usually answers it. I would then leave my final message in the voicemail. This way, I would have a chance to speak my true last words and have it recorded so that everyone could hear it in its original state. |

| a post for my bretheren! |
[Jul. 24th, 2008|10:56 pm] |
Oh what a joyous day! I held a staff meeting that required me to talk nonstop to keep from dead air. I felt as if I was hosting my own radio station without commercials. It was sort of like a radio personality that came out when I had to make points.
Some people have to make sure they think before they speak. I was afraid of what may come out of my mouth because my thoughts were being completed and words were forming before i could realize what I was saying. It was this beauiful flow of words that painted a vivid picture of every image and scenario in my head.
that's it |

it's safe to say that i'm some sort of insomniac. That's okay. I'll snap out of it one of these years. As for now. I'm actually getting tired. In some time, i'll hit the hay... Yeah right!! Adios |

It's 4:19am right now. I'm sitting here watching CBS news early in the morning. I've already taken my multivitamin, vitamin B and Ginko Biloba. It's safe to say that I'm anticipating a regular day.
This is supposed to be my day off but I'll wind up coming in for a few hours today. That's alright.
I just came across a news story on television stating that women with the inability to achieve orgasm could benefit from taking viagra. 72% of women who tried viagra stated that it improved their ability to achieve orgasms during sexual intercourse. Anyhow, I'll get back to my early morning routine.
Maybe I'll get the worm being that I'm up so early preparing for a yoga routine. The one thing I'll try doing different is to slightly include some Egyptian Yoga stretches into my routine.
Well, I'm about to roll out my mat. That's all for now. |

I'd immediately place copies of my video documentaries in the box. It would be interesting to see what changed fifty years later. The only problem is that they are on 8mm camcorder tapes. They'll surely be obsolete in 50 years. |

I didn't get a chance to do yoga today. That's quite all right. I'll get a chance to continue with my daily routine later on in the day. I'm just busy pondering. I'm thinking of how to expand my metaphysical enlightenment. Over the past few days, I've been exploring different yoga practices. I found some interesting teachers in Florida and Chicago. I also came across some retreats in India and China. Finally I came across some Ancient Egyptian yoga practices. The interesting thing about the Ancient Egyptian yoga practices was that it was very similar to practices of the Yoruba culture. It's safe to say that there is a lot of curiosity about these ancient practices. It is only a matter of time before the curiosity becomes regular practice.
Who knows when the practice will begin. All I know is that this curiosity came at a perfect time. Only time will tell how far I take this new curiosity. That's all folks! |

| just another day |
[Jul. 20th, 2008|10:56 am] |
it would be easy to say that yesterday was just another day. however, it wasn't. I thought i had met my match. It seemed as if I had run into someone on the same spiritual plane at work yesterday. I was in a conversation with one of my staff. We were chatting for a while -- i guess getting to know the deeper sides of one another. Little by little we began to reveal intimate parts of our personalities held back from the usual small talk conversations. There was this feeling that I may have met someone as spiritually bold as me. It was exciting!
Excitement then led to intrigue. Intrigue then led to questioning. Questioning then led to doubt as i began to study her body language. It seemed as if she was more bark than bite. it appeared that she could not even make eye contact with me as she mentioned some bold descriptions of her personality. At the same time I made strong efforts to hide some of the more spiritually bold parts of my personality from her. He was regarded as an untrustworthy ear to my words at that point.
The good news about the day at work was that I finished the James Rollins novel I was reading. What a page-turner! |

its pretty late right now. today was a regular day for a change. it was so strange. i got to work right on time. my productivity was pretty good. i got off of work. then, i came home during rush hour. My clothes came off, I took a shower, had dinner, watched a movie and just hung out in my living room. later on in the evening, i received a call about work. i took such a prefunctory approach to the conversation. it was almost as if i was reading out of the employee handbook when i answered questions. it was the most regular day i had in a while. and it's been a CRAZY!!! year. I hope this regular nonsense doesn't keep up. |

spending part of the evening preparing for work. I'm almost exhausted doing all of the preparation for tomorrow's session. I'm just one of those guys that wishes he could fall asleep but i'm a night owl. Usually I'd be out right now but the responsible side of my personality keeps me in. It's best I obey that side of my personality or i'll run into some deep shit. (excuse my language.) anyhow i gotta go. that's all for now. I don't want to start going in to another rant. |

Back from the Oscar party. Now I'm focused on paperwork for the job. That will be done in the morning after I do a bit of shoveling. I'll probably do some sort of exercise when I'm done. As of now, I'm trying to get back in to the workout regimen I used to do for years. The tough part of the regimen is running.
It's tough to run because of the October 30th injury. My mile-run time has suffered since then. My weight is much lower now since I changed my eating habits. Maybe mile-runs will be back to normal. For now, I'll have to keep to sit ups, push ups and walking. I'll get shoes next week. |

| polyurethane |
[Feb. 25th, 2007|04:04 pm] |
I'm smelling polyurethane as I type. That's because I just put down a second coat of it on my floor. The smell is a bit rough, but the floors look good. In about a day, I'll probably start moving my things into that room. The room's come a long way. I've come a long way. Many things have come a long way.
Things have definitely changed a bit. Nowadays, I read a Home Depot How-to book on weekends instead of reading a novel. I use power tools and chemicals instead of notebooks and medical journals. The change has been so damn interesting. I used to write about skate sessions, but after that hospital visit, my sessions haven't included much of spines or quarter pipes. I've been really into college football as well as pro football. I would have never imagined this a year ago.
Anyhow, I'm done. I wont waste any more of your time. |

| A Scanner Darkly |
[Feb. 23rd, 2007|03:43 am] |
I'm watching this movie as we speak. Well-- we're not actually speaking, but we are communicating right now. It's been months since my last entry. I don't know why it has been so long. Who's keeping track anyways? I'm just here trying to make sense of the brain. It's like this movie makes me feel like I can't put together a coherent thought.
Man, It's like my brain is like the brain of Bob Archter right now. Maybe I'm like Jim Barris. Thoughts come but don't come together in complete sentences. What ever happened to the analytical portion of my brain. What happened to my left hemisphere? Where has everything gone. I used to be able to speak for hours. I used to be able to write for hours. Now I'm a mind-fucked dude with writer's block.
If I had Writer's block, i wouldn't be able to crank out this sentence. I guess I might just be overreacting. Yea, that's it. That's exactly what's going on. I'm possibly a part of a normal wave of.. I don't know what the hell happened in this sentence. that was pretty cool. I have so many different brain waves and thoughts going on. I love the fact that I'm able to do this. I'm finally open again.
The ability to just freely be open with words is a virtue. Losing it is a very scary thing. Hopefully I never get there. This is the real deal. You're witnessing the real deal. The openness that is going on right now slightly relates to Tuesday night when i was in a conversation with a friend. We were speaking about the true definition of being down-to-earth. Isn't it funny that some people consider themselves down-to-earth when they are actually up tight? I found that out in a conversation on Tuesday night.
I used to be down to earth. Now I'm up tight as hell. That's my problem and not yours. Shoot. Now I'm changing the subject. Maybe not. Maybe this sentiment going on in my head right now has a bit to do with the fact that I'm up tight at this point in my life. Maybe it is that I feel that there is something really incomplete in my life. Gotta figure it out before it's too late. Yea, that's totally not an example of being down-to-earth.
Maybe this is all just babbling nonsense. It's a crock if you ask me. Maybe I'm delusional as hell. Damn! Things are really not making sense anymore. I fucking hate a lot of things that are going on right now. That's the god damn truth. It's all of the two-faced bastards that ruin it for everyone. that's it. My thoughts are not jumbled. I'm just a nice guy that's slowly turning into an asshole.
I always feel the nice guy resisting the weight of the motherfuckers forcing a change on my personality. I'm surrounded with so much shit on a daily basis that I sometimes consider becoming one of those shit bag, two-faced lumps of lard that aren't worth the sweat off of my balls. Maybe one day I'll truly be an asshole. Hell, I was called an asshole this evening. Maybe I'm becoming one. Wow. God help me. Phew! Needed to get that out. |

I got this huge bill for my cellphone service. I think they charged me twice for my activation fee. That's what's on my mind right now. Today was bill pay day and tomorrow will be work day. It's going ot suck because I've go to get a bunch of monthly crap done. Yippie for me. I've got more things to do so that I could kill time and get older. Yippie! It's quiet as hell right now and absolutely nothing is going on. All I hear is the humming of my PC fan and a few planes in the sky. Goodbye. |

How the hell am I able to land clean tricks once I returned? I haven't been on a board for a while before today because of an injury. I miraculously healed this week. There must be a god because the pain just disappeared after weeks of excruciating pain in my upper ribs. This was my first day back since the injury. Things are nice now. On my first day back, I landed clean tricks like nothin.
My heelflips have been terrible all year. They're back again! Maybe I just needed a bit of a break. I was even happy to have landed some kickflips. I rarely ever do them. Today was a flatground street session day obviously. Balance and coordination dominated my session today. All I have to do is find a halfpipe or a miniramp and things will be grand. I know where they are, but I'm just sick of driving right now. The driving aversion wont last long though.
My first day back since the injury was promising. I'm landing clean and ready for some new runs coming up in the next few weeks. Who knows -- maybe I'll even start writing about things other than boarding. Peace out for now. |

Steel is the word of the day. It's what the old-skool superman was made of. It's what I'm drinkin right now. And it's what hits the spot without piling up on the bottles. Wow! I never thought I'd be supporting malt liquor so much, but it's so efficient! Have a blast and be safe. Seel is the word of the day. |

I woke up this morning with an unusual amount of sweat coming out fo my sweat glands. I wasn't really hot. However, I was having a pretty bizzarre dream. One part I could remember was the part where I was in my living room looking around the wall unit. I noticed an evelope addressed to me months ago so I decided to open it.
I found that it was a renewed licence mailed to me -- my old one expired this week. It seemed like a good idea to try using this old licence to my advantage. My first thought was to try using it as some sort of dual identity. That idea seemed pretty dumb. I then noticed that it was one of the high-tech new licenses isssued in this state where scans would easily bring up info on anyone carrying this license.
This license surely made use of its high tech capabilities. It suddenly occurred to me that this card was programmed to self-destruct once I got a new licence. The bottom right corner of the card fell off indicating that the card was obsolete. I woke up about an hour later. |
