The Decision to End All Decisions...

So, here's the deal: Maria is moving to Florida in August and she really wants me to go. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go, but I'm still a little scared. It's a big deal moving. It's an even bigger deal moving all the way across the country.

I really think this would be good for me. It's time for me to get out of my mom's house and I'd be somewhere sunshiney and I think that would help with my depression. I always seem to feel better on sunny, warm days and am more inclined to get out and do stuff.

I love my mom, but I'm done living with her. She keeps me down and treats me like a servant. I've been looking for an out and I think this may be it.

A couple things worry me, however. First, I would have to quit my job and find a new one down there. I've been looking at and applying for jobs there (and I've even been rejected by a few already), but I'm afraid I won't find one by the time to go. Oh yeah, that's in August, by the way.

I'm going to have to start saving money, but the trouble is I don't make that much to begin with, so I'll probably only have a couple hundred bucks by then, but I'm hoping not. We'll see.

I'm also afraid that if we split up, I'll be stuck there by myself. Maria says I could just stay and make a life for myself. I guess that's true. I know I won't want to move cross country again.

Now, comes the fun part: telling my mom about it. I have a feeling she's not gonna take it well and is gonna try to talk me out of it, but I have to stick to my guns and just do it. This is going to be part of my self re-discovery.

I think this will be good. What do you think?

It's All in the Wrist

Just woke up from a much needed nap, refreshed. Now, I'm eating ravioli from the kitchen of the master, Chef Boyardee. Boy, the time change really kicked me in the balls this year. Luckily, I had a short day at work, so it wasn't too bad. Now, I won't be able to go to bed tonight.

Actually, that's probably not true. Most likely, I'll pass right out as soon as my head hits the pillow. I took an early enough nap, so that I'll be sleepy at bed time.

So, I had a good couple days off with Maria and the kids. We've actually been pretty busy lately. Running errands, going to appointments and the like. After the kids got outta school, we decided to go to the $2 movies in Federal Way to catch Tangled and The Green Hornet...in 3-D! Both were actually pretty good even though we missed about the first 10 minutes of Tangled.

I liked Tangled a lot more than I thought I would. I haven't really been a big fan of Disney's CG films. I much prefer their traditionally animated films, but this one was pretty good. The animation was spectacular, it had a lot of emotion (something for which Disney is known) and it was just downright funny.

Green Hornet was also good, though it was a lot more funny and over-the-top than the radio and TV series'. Still a fun flick though. Will probably pick up the blu-ray.

In other news, I put in a few job apps at different places. I've been with Target for 3 years and I haven't gotten any further than where I am now, so I think it's time for a change. I can't afford to work there anymore.

Other than that, just been working on some art, which I will be posting soon at my as-yet-unfinished art blog, so stay tuned for the launch of that.

Well, time to get off my ass and go get some groceries.

Peace out, my babies!

The Blog is Back!

Hello, my lovelies! I crawl back from the abyss of uncertainty and time (mixed with a dose of unmotivation) to bring you news from the furthest reaches of the globe!

Ok, maybe it's not that epic, but it is true. I have been away for a long while and you will see if you read through the past that that is a recurring theme here. Well, no more I say to you. Which I have probably said before as well, but enough! We shall never speak of the act of non-doing again!

I come back to you now...at the turn of the tide.

I have the same job, but less excitement about it. It's been 3 years and I've gotten pretty much nowhere, so now comes the time to look elsewhere.

I have a new lady as the last 2 didn't really work out. But it goes well with the new one (I'll explain more of that in a later installment).

I have so much to tell and so little time to tell it...that means we've reached the end because I have to go to bed because I have to go make other people rich while not being so myself.

Good night, faithful subjects...we shall meet again.
