"Going Off The Grid"

Readers,

Hey everyone I hope all is going great on your end. On my end, I've been busy somewhat enjoying this summer spending a hell of a lot of time with my girlfriend Ruth, went and saw the band One Republic with my friend Jordan, went to music fest (which turned out awesome aside from sky blue and the fact that they cranked up the bass too much), went to Mayhem Fest a couple of days ago with Ruth and that was awesome! Suffice to say I got to see the band Mushroomhead in concert, Korn, Ice T and body count (which is an awesome kinda metal rock band, check them out), Avenged Sevenfold and the Texas Hippie Coalition.

This summer hasn't been the most exciting summer though because I've had this math class sort of hanging around my neck like a noose of sorts. Its painful because I am so damned close I can feel myself succeeding but there is still that part of me that also sees failure at the end of the tunnel. Its hard as hell not keeping that breathing monster at bay...feels like he is constantly just waiting to scream at me, "You fucking suck at math! You will always just work retail and nothing more! Ha, the only place in HR you'll make it is a warm seat when they fire your pathetic ass!". I see that thing on facebook that says its essential to find someone that has demons as well as yours and their demons play with your demons and all is well. Essentially, all those bad thoughts all those feelings of not succeeding are cancelled out because of how loving and supportive they're. Obviously I talked a lot about Ruth and how elemental she was in helping me to get through my finals and my ultimate success (ie. helping keep me focused on what I need to do). She's never stopped being that central person that person whom I can really lean on and vice versa. She continues to amaze me and continues to give me butterflies! In just a few days, it'll be four months for us and beyond the skies the limit. To quote the great Buzz Lightyear, "To infinite and beyond". Because that's how I feel about our love its something that continues to literally grow day in and day out

Recently purchased a pair of tickets for the band Theory Of A Deadman, they will be playing at the Knitting Factory on September 10th. I am stoked as hell for that concert. Its one of those bands that I have always wanted to see live. Here is a video for one of their many songs, its called Santa Monica (thank you Ruth for getting tickets for the show). Literally this is one of those top favorite bands of mine that I have loved since I got their second album from my cousin Josh for a birthday when I was way younger.

I titled this blog going off the grid because right now I am up to the wire with my math. I literally have a few weeks and that's it! Its pass this math class or good bye to college until when I can afford to go back and pay entirely out of pocket for my schooling *shrugs* Don't know when that would actually be...so damned close I can feel it! So, I will be treating this like I did finals week. No watching movies, no reading books, no going out on the town, no real texting or talking on the phone (except in a major emergency or just to debrief or calm the fuck down).

Well with that I am hitting the books and also getting ready for work. I work today at 10:45 till 2:30pm, after that I am coming home and probably starting the hitting the books thing. Here is to hoping I can come out on top. So please keep me in your prayers, thoughts etc. I'll catch ya on the flip side  

ps: It was great to run into my John and his girlfriend downtown eagle for a bit last night and catch up. Definitely some friends no matter how long its been are friends for life...no matter the time away you pick up where you left off like nothing ever happened

Its Over & Done. Time to forget her and get back out there

Readers; Hey everyone I hope all's going great in you're world's. Its now 12:17 in the morning just got home from Roaring Springs which I got in for free so that was fun but I found myself dwelling on what I didn't have; what had come to a close; that being the relationship with Jolene and I. Hell it was an even shorter relationship than the one with my last ex at this point I think I might be something of a plague. So many people are like you are awesome blah blah blah but of course what the fuck else are they going to say? Over these past weeks I learned I flunked my summer math class so that makes me feel overjoyed!  Hell at this point I am pretty sure I will get out of college when I am maybe thirty years old. At this point in my life I seriously am left wondering again what do I have to truly offer a woman seriously in a substantial sustaining relationship. I mean I still live with my parents while going to college. I have a part time job that somewhat pays the...

\\\\Feeling empty tonight

Readers: Hey everyone I hope all's going great in you're world's. Checked my facebook page earlier and got a post from my best friend Jared Lewis who first got me into Queensryche years ago saying that Geoff Tate broke up with the band Queensryche and they are no more. Now apparently the rest of the band has recruited another singer but that won't be the same though without Geoff Tate. Apparently I do not have my photographs on here from my photo album it must be on the older laptop so i will have to grab those off of there. This is going to be a shorter blog here or a tribute of sorts but nevertheless they are the best band and i've seen them a total of eight different times and even had the pleasure of meeting Scott Rockenfield and Geoff Tate whom were both incredibly nice. Being a major fan over the years and seeing them that many times i feel like i have grown to accept them as part of a my repritore just bummed i did not get a chance to see them a year or s...

Been Awhile

Readers: Hey everyone I hope all's going great in you're worlds. I just realized that I had started and stopped several blogs but never finished one due to being super busy with finals and registering for classes and filling out job applications and accepting the reality that I am going to be taking that math class during the summer due to the fact that I got a d in it. Self doubt i'd say is fairly normal and I have went from really feeling just incompetent to a kind of acceptance that I took two difficult classes that shouldn't have been mixed up with political science and swimming class. Yes without a single doubt political science was a fascinating and enjoyable class and I even did well in it and secondly Swimming was a great class it really helped me wake up in the morning and I always felt more ready to take on the day after I finished it around 9:30 but nevertheless that time that went towards those classes I feel took away from math and secondly the business...
