The day of thanks has come once again. What do I have to be thankful for? Quite a bit I would have to say. Great friends, some cool family members, hot acquaintances, the best boss I've ever known, and more. Sometimes we forget about those things in everyday life. Its a pitty it takes a special day to remind us. I'll do my best not to forget again.
NEWS..
Scott is back from Afgan country and I'm very happy. He kicked off the return with a visit to the Necto club and of course...he got laid..lol. Good for u Scott!!
I went to see the Factory/Pride night. Though I think it was more Factory than Pride; on the main floor at least. I think I like Pride better these days.
Jinx sounds as great as ever. He really rocked it. Saw many of the old Factory faces; it was good to see them all again.
My idol James Bond is on and I'm lovin it. All day Bond Marathon. Don't know if it can get better than that.
Tomorrow will b a battle of will and endurance for me.

My brother has returned to NC and I am once again on my own here @ the house. I have access to pretty much all I need right now, my father continues his OT, and I prepare for the biggest sale day of the entire year @ work. And with it,other problems as well. As I continue on the strange but wonderful path of solitude, I find myself with a odd peace that I've not known before. No more stress, no more drama. And I know why too. Cause he isn't here. The old man; he really is the cause of all of those negative things. And that has led me to the conclusion that their is only one(1) course of action to take right now. And though it may cost me something things along the way; I believe that it is the way to go. I have not openly declared war. War on what u might ask? War on the enemies that take the form of ignorance, staying in the comfort zone, stupidity, the green eyed monster of envy, low self-esteem, gluttonly, sloth, and others. The most serious of my enemies is LACK. And more me, the serious kind of lack is the lack of finances. To that end, I'm putting together a new network to help combat these and other enemies.
@ work - Black Friday approaches and we are getting ready. though some of the stock are complaining their asses off about not being able to go up north for Thanksgiving and/or having to work another job. I have always been an advocate of additional income; but now I understand why some employers don't want their employees to have a second job. It throws a money wrench into their works. And no one(1) wants anymore complication than neccessary. Especially these days. Its unfortunate but everyone must look after themselves these days; in the worst economy in 25 years.
I know have no choice but to go @ it longer, harder, and more viciously than ever before. their is no other way now. THE WAR HAS BEGUN. WHEN IT ENDS, I DON'T KNOW.

Recent events have shown me that I must now make a decision on the next path to take. I have reached the crossroads once more and must again choose. Options...
1. Continue to stay as I am and keep everything stable and hope for something to come along.
2. Thow caution to the wind and wage all out war on all the enemies that have been oppressing me for the longest.
Either way hold a difficult path and consequences for taking it.
Lately, I have grown very impatient and irritated with people in general. Seems like they don't know how to do much of anything; not even the simple things. I'm getting a lot of this @ work. A little bit with the family though just one(1) of them is enough drama to last a lifetime.
So now I have to make a decision on what to do. I have a deadline of tomorrow. Am I ready to go to all out war?

Right now my father is in the one(1) place my mother was and the one(1) place I have longed to put him for payback. A nursing home. Its mainly for rehab but his future is uncertain from my standpoint. Revenge is not as sweet as I thought it would be. Its not what I want anymore; I believe my time in mostly solitude has affected my focus and changed my outlook on things somewhat. I feel mostly pitty for him now. Though this place is cleaner than others I've seen. My bro didn't care for it cause their is no phones in the rooms; they all have to go to a room to make calls. My mother had the same thigns but I didn't mind. Thats how they are set up and I accept it. So lets see how it plays out.
@ work...The holiday season is getting underway and black friday is just around the corner. I'm not looking forward to that. I wanted to be out of there before then but with everything going on like it has been doing. I don't see that happening now realistically. I'll keep trying of course. Unemployment is suppose to hit 10% soon if not already. Never thought I'd see the day. I'm surprised people still buy the things they buy. Haha, I'm a fine one(1) to talk considering I put a new computer in the layaway for a dear friend. We still have to be good to ourselves. I tend to forget that sometimes; thus inviting my own tribulation into my life. Lifes hard enough without us making it harder.
Tonight is Necto night. And I plan to head on out for some dancing and maybe some socializing. And to unleash.

A lot has been going on since my last entry here; I don't even remember my last entry here. I've had to make some very difficult decisions, face and deal with some harsh realities, and work with some people who @ every turn try to answer my power with their own; thus messing everything up. We will start with the homeworld...
HOMEWORLD...My old man took a turn for the worse a few weeks ago. Falling facedown on the floor and unable to get up for not beig able to move his arms and legs. It was like watching a fish out of water. After consulting with my bro and his Dr., we got home a therapist and a visiting nurse. Things seem to go well @ first but he kept on falling. One(1) time I came home and found him in the bathtub. We theorize that his brain did something and caused his body to shut down. Last week, he fell backwards on the carpet floor and went to sleep. He was taken to the Providence the next day when he was still incoherrent. He is still there now as my bro and I make a final decision on a rehab facility to place him. The Medical Social Worker said that it would be dangerous for him to return home @ this time. He needs to rebuild some strength first. In the meantime, I have been taking care of things here and more or less, this has been my place. I'm very creative with food so I have no trouble cooking. And I have to admitt, I love the freedom. At least, without him around. Now all I need are the finances to go with it. My bro is coming up here @ the end of next week to help out.
@ WORK...It is stable but conflict is never slow to break out as the babies and whinners, and the lazy asses try to peddle everthing off on me and the rest of the stock. Though with me it isn't so easy. As far as the rest of the stock goes; One(1) is highly intimidated by me, another wants his and his relative birthdays off all the time. But this time I put my foot down with the support of my GM. He had his grandpa's birthday off last week and wanted his Grandma's off this week. HELL NO! Was the answer(though I didn't say it that way); basically, this guy needed to have some limits set on him but good. And thats just what happened this week. He hasn't said a word to me about it yet. He was told that if he could switch with someone, he could have it. He had the nerve to ask me. The very person who denied him in the first place. How does that sound? Their are places where you couldn't get your own bday off let alone a relative's bday. These kids and some people in general need to really understand what the world is really like. ABC is pretty lax compared to other places. I'm not pulling punches.
THE JOB FRONT...The fight is hard and stretching out. I see no end in sight with that. But where there is a will, there is a way. For whoever reads this, I would very much appreciate any and all assistance with my new job hunt you could give me. A place with at least 10 dollars and hr. would world prettty good right about now. Areas of skill include..adminstrative/office clerical. computer savyness, managerial experience, stock experience and customer service.
All in all, things are going ok. No complaints from me. I still want more but I have basics and a little extra. Still have a lot to do though but I'll handle it as I always do. Fighting and I are old companions ya know.

Its been a while since I've been on here. As alwasys a lot going on in my life. Sometimes things go so fast that even I need to run to catch up. For the general population, that can be next to impossible. I'm going to start a fact series about me; this series will feature real facts about me @ the end of each of my LJ entries. Please have a look if u r interested in learning more about me. I invite u all into my life; but be warned, my brain can be a scary place @ times..hehehe. So here is whats going on right now...
Currently I'm in hybernation due to a cold that I'm battling. Even I know I shouldn't be out in my condition. The best thing right now is for me to lay low and take it easy. I'll rest, sleep, and heal the entire weekend. And yes, MMA is on the shelf too.
@ work the conflict about getting stock releases during the stock truck time is as heated as ever. As always, I don't give any slack to that. Of course, that has earned me the reputation of being a hard ass. Like I care about that. I think people in general(especially salespeople) are a bit too spoonfed for their own good. Their just upset with me cause I don't let them get away with it.
My old man is getting worse; his altheimers is starting to come on strong in my book. He can't even remember what day or date it is sometimes. he doesn't like to be corrected either. Thats his pride right there. He can't @ times remember how to do the cable channels. Of course, the general view is that seniors and technology don't mix(though their are some exceptions).
A council in going to be held tonight to decide on new strategies for when Scott comes home. He is set to return in mid nov. He wants to get a place with me but that will mean a few complications.
And one(1) stock guy's request @ work shows me just how dumb and lazy people can be these days.
Also, my aunt makes a comment that makes me bite my tounge. And I can't see what I wanted to call her.
FACT: My family are not my favorite people. Although they came first, I hold others in much higher regard.

They are called Neuro associations. We are making them everyday of our lived. Unfortunately most of them we make are negative, counter productive, and just downright unhealthy for us all. We associate more pain to things that we should be doing then things we shouldn't...example: Some of us know we should lay off the chocolate and ice cream but we think not eating it is going to cause us more pain than it will pleasure.
We do everything in life for one(1) of two(2) reasons; to gain pleasure or avoid pain. Most of what we do is try to avoid pain. What we need to do is switch it up and associate more pain to eating ice cream and chocolate than pleasure. I find myself fighting with different problems but the neuro associations are still the same. And so I'm trying to sway myself to recondition my brain for pleasure and pain associations. Thats something we can all do. After all...."To conquer others is to have power, to conquer yourself is to know the way". The greatest enemy we all face in life is...OURSELVES. Best yourself, defeat yourself, and then u will have total control of everything. The only one(1) that can defeat u is U of course. A bit of knowledge and wisdom from yours truly. Now u know.

The last few days have seen much more positive energy than normal; and thats what I love. The rising news about the economy is a nice boost to me. And the new found confidence I have is growing thanks to a few exercises I've been doing mentally. And though some mistake it for arrogance and/or being stuck up, it is confidence none the less. After all, if u don't believe in yourself, who will?
I have a new resume that I believe will help get me access to the rivers of wealth and proserity that I have tried to blaze a trail to for sometime. I believe that this time I can really do it. I just take recent uphevals as just things of life. Though we must always be mindfull of that cause we can't let life get in the way of our dreams. And I won't let that happen to me. Soon the rivers will flow to me and my true power will be fully accessible. I think I'll start off with getting someone a flatscreen. Who do I get it for? Hehe.

WORK: Salespeople are truly some of the laziest people on the planet; even lazier than politicans. If u can believe that..lol. This past thurs and fri has really prooved that. As always, I do an inventory truck mon thru fri; though on thurs, we get a courtesy truck that takes away all the defective merchandise thats returned to the store. In a somewhat rare thing, both trucks arrived almost at the same time. As always with trucks, we do no stock releases. They are picked up by the other depts or at least they are suppose to be. Doesn't always happen. Anyway, after inventory truck was done, I has given orders to stay in the truck bay and prepare for the second truck; this met no stock releases and I knew it. First their was one(1) call for a release, then another, and another, and so on. Then I hear yelling coming my way, it was two of the female salespeople. They tore the other guy working with me a new one(1). Then they looked for me, I was able to hide in the truck bay; lucky they didn't think to look behind some fridges they were in there. It was a close one(1) though. I was able to get the bay ready and then I called up front to the assist mgr and told him and I quote "The natives are very restless", he then said "Yeah, I know, they don't want to anything on their own but expect everything to be handed to them, they are just being lazy, they know the rules". After that, I asked if I could go help for a bit since I got the bay ready, he said ok, but just u. So I went and finished up. Apparently some customers were not too happy with it either according to the two(2) Banshees. I've not heard that type of yelling from a woman in a long time. And though I escaped, I was not out of the woods yet. One(1) of them caught up to me a bit later and kinda let me have it. I was not phased and told her that I spoke to the assist mgr to have me come help. She backed off a bit but was still pissed saying her guys from small appliances were eating at the time. Like thats an excuse. So in short, not its a whole new ballgame for me. These people are coming at me more than one(1) at a time. Talk about super spoiled. Finding a new position is more important than its ever been now. With the market on the rebound, this could be the time to make my move.
OTHER AREAS: I saw the new GIJOE movie fri, it was pretty cool. The special effects were awesome and the characters were larger than life, even more so than from the cartoon. I smell sequel.
@ Necto fri was a great time; nothing out of the ordinary too much. I do seem to dwarf many people with my increasing energy, stamina, and drive. Man I can go for a long time. Though the irritation from other people wanting to use the pole when I got sqatters rights(having got on it first) is common place now.
The old man of mine could stop complaining and/worrying to save his life. Sometimes I find myself actually wishing that was the case cause I know what the outcome would be. cruel, yes, but some don't deserve the gift of life and/or any of its quirks. People seem very unappreciative these days to the good fortune they have. I only hope that I don't become one(1) of them and they I remember what I already have while I strive for even more.

My brother is coming for a visit this week; I should be happy but part of me isn't. These days the visits revolved around my old man and thei visits are usually at his request. This tends to cause some tension. As if I don't have enough of that to deal with as is.
In the meantime, I'm on another fast to try and access my clairovoyant powers. I can think really clear when I have not eaten food. Especially a lot of food. Haha. Though many friends and some family are still learly of my fasting. I'm only doing it for a day; so far, it seems to be working. I'll eat something when the UFC comes on tonight @ 9pm.
Work is going ok though the tension is still obvious. Inventory is coming up; though I don't work that day. Lucky me. I try to keep myself under control though their are times when I do slip when it comes to certain things. My control surprises even me. Think I've learned to for at least in part to put my emotions to the side. After all, I don't have to like someone to work with them.
The economy is about as bad as it going to get; so according to economists, it should start to rise. We should see the effects in the latter half of the year and in the first part of next year. I hope it really does, this is just horrible. Despite the economy, I am still pursuing my search of a new position. No other way, I have to fight my way thru all the mess. And in my MMA training, I've been doing that litterally..lol.
The path ahead is no longer clear; a dark fog has clouded the road. Despite what is being said, I feel a small sense of uncertainty about the future. I don't like it but I can't ignore its presence. I can only stay positive and hopeful, and for all of us (including me)...Pray. That will not hurt at all. The President is on now trying to pitch his medical care plan. Thats one(1) tough pitch too. I feel a lot like him. So many opposing me and not wanting me to succeed. Politics of any kind are such dirty games. Yes despite all the crap, I keep the faith and the fire burns hot and bright inside me.

The rising conflict @ work continues to try me; some days are more trying than others. The last few days have not been too bad. Though conflict is never far away. Therefore, I have come to some final decisions on the matter and have begun plans to carry them out. And something that I would not put anywhere else; I will reveal here.
I am becoming very tired of the bs that is going on around me; the infighting, bitching, moaning, and complaining. I choose not to tolerate it anymore though that has created another problem in itself. Much of the problems are centered around the main stock truck we get 5 days a week; when they truck is here, we do nothing else. Not even carry stuff out if we are called by the salespeople. That really gets many of their goats but we have our orders from the GM himself. I for one(1) support it.
I am just fed up with the crap and in some small ways, I have begun to launch small attacks @ people whenever I see an opening and/or a kink in their armor. Due to my unusual amount of firepower, I can more or less get away with it. Many of them come off like a bunch of babies to say the least which is what aggitates me the most. At least one(1) in my dept has all but tured against me; though I think he has been against me since I got there. Why? Again, too much energy, stamina, drive, and firepower. I tend to more or less overwhelm most of them. And I have adopted several solid but controversial laws. After all, when it comes down to it, the only persons I have to please are the ones in charge.
Between home, work, club, and otherwise, I am pretty much disgused with it overall. To that end, I have begun my own side....The Empire. And the one(1) side I keep first and foremost is my own along with my allies. I have decided that I will no longer tolerate this mayhem; to that end, it will end the first day of fall. I will by then, have a new position elsewhere and be gone from ABC forever(unless I shop there..lol). New plans are being designed even as I write this update. I feel a sense of betrayl on many fronts. The very threat I was called upon to stop, in some people's eyes I have become. Ironic, isn't it?
If anyone knows about any possible job openings please shoot me a message here. Looking in the fields of office clerical, administrative, warehouse stock, customer service, nightclubs and open to a few others. Open to moving too; Ann Arbor or Sterling Hts are the two(2) main areas I'm interested in moving into.

I'm continue to work @ ABC but tension is mounting between myself and some of the other employees. My Mgr's like me for the most part so I'm not concered about getting fired in that respect. We are having out annual tent sale the entire week. So if u want to get a bargan, come on down. ABC Southgate. Airconditioning sales have started to take off and fans are selling pretty good too. I just bought a super cyclone fan and it works great. I do love my discount. Why do I have to work with moorons?
In others news, I went on a date last fri; thats right, no Necto for me. Can u believe that? Haha. I went to Gigis for the first time and a few other places as well. Despite the hard rain, I had a blast. Great date indeed.
MMA is going pretty good. I got m butt kicked last sat but I did manage to win a few rounds. The wheels are starting to turn. Overall, I'm stickin with it and will continue to do so. Learning more and more each time.
Dance class has kicked into high gear; Been learning new steps and a new routine that gets longer and longer each week. I'm lovin it. I'm gonna do the routine @ Necto fri night. Been practicing since sun.
Now I'm really gonna go at it and do some work. And I've become aware of what is to come and what I need to do. Some of which I don't like. In the last few weeks, my eyes have been opened to what lies ahead in terms of where I'll live, work, my family, and more. And the things currently in my life are helping me prepare for all of it. I feel myself getting stronger each day. My reflexes are quicker, stamina lasts longer, and I can think on my feel more. Senses are sharper too.
Forward I look and forward I go.

Recently, my passion, desire, and determination side has been very active. In the theature of my mind, it reveals itself as the leader of my mental army....General Abraham Sith. After the Sith lords of Star Wars. That side of me feels that I need to be even more aggressive with things. And not take any shit from people. It may be needed though I feel that it may cause more problems I don't need. I'm already marked by some cause they say I come on too strong as it is. The last thing I want is enemies accross the board. Already got enough of them; some for stuff not even my fault. And I do come on strong; just ask some people @ the Necto on fri nights..lol. I've got some stamina. I've become somewhat of a juggernaut these days; once I build up momentum its nearly impossible to stop me. And once I have something, I seldom let it go. Too aggressive? Maybe. Though as a saying goes..."A person must be like a sharpened blade that won't dull @ the first sign of resistance". I know I'm a person and not a sword; but I still need to be sharp and take command of certain situations. We all do. I've decided to give the general what he asked for; deep down, I believe its right. With these hard times, we have to take a hard line approach. I believe to an extent, we all need to be as sharp as swords. Warriors able to take up the fight. We all need to be these things. So for better or worse, I'm gonna go forward and give the general more latitude. Lets hope it works.

I was given the opportunity to go to a blast @ Necto this past monday but scheduel just wouldn't allow it. I find myself struggling with a bug that threatens to overtake me and turn into a full blown cold; the last thing I need right now.
Work is shifting here and there like the fault line in CA; every once in a while their is an earthquake..haha. Some horrible news yesterday made me realize just how lucky I really am despite circumstances.
Pridefest on sunday was pretty cool; saw almost everyone I know there.

In the time of ancient Greek gods; Aries was the god of war. Now the Empire unleashes its own brand of warfare against its enemies. For better or worse, I've decided to go forward with the MMA training. Not going to bank on anything but their are things I can get from it that will be very useful...
WAR!...The Empire proceeds to turn itself into a Juggernaut of a war machine. Dancing, MMA, and more; all the stops are being pulled out. Tension at work continues; their are points of view on both sides, conflict is everywhere. Today I got into a minor scuffle with one(1) of the salesman who was once a mgr @ another store. He has a habit of acting like he is still a mgr. It was about a tv that wouldn't fit into a car and I'm always against taking them out of the box; espeically the plasmas. I feel thats too risky a gamble. Even I wouldn't try it. A Couple wanted to do it in the end after they thought about it for a minute; I tried to convince them to get delivery. They chose to take it out of the box; crazy people in my book. The salesman gets on me about not encouraging that option. I give them the option to take it out of the box but I always recommend aganst doing it. Then he tries to give me the lacture about getting the stuff out of the store and doing whatever I have to do. I'm not going for it!! Sorry! He even stepped over one(1) of the mgr's heads once and acted really big. The mgr got offended and said "You really need to get away from me right now". GUYS A SHIT HEAD!! I think being a mgr once before has made him arrogant.
I have also been accused of being a sociopath. Question: do u all think I'm a sociopath?
Its been said the job market has been increasing in small strides. I would like to believe that but I won't til I get another job for myself. We shall see.

A buddy of mine did me a favor I didn't expect; though some might not call it a favor. I'm not sure of it myself. I find myself at odds with this latest decision and the Imperial Council(my closest advisors) is uncertain of it as well. Seems I have been presented with a worth wild, fantastic, but somewhat risky opportunity. My buddy made a call and got me a meeting at a self defense academy. I went there, had the meeting and was invited to participate in the training. Afterwards, I was invited to come study and train there and learn...MMA = Mixed Martial Arts. For those of u who don't know..MMA is the fastest growing sport today.....THE ART OF CAGE FIGHTING. Hence the UFC = Ultimate Fighting Championship. I'm very excited but their is a sense of uncertainty if I should go ahead with this due to the potential risks. This is no joke; this is real fighting, the gloves worn in an MMA fight are not like boxing gloves at all. Min padding. Their is a possibility of getting hurt really bad. I've seen it happen many times before on tv. Still, I feel stirred to proceed. I have till sat to decide. In other news, my dance class has started up again and I've already learned new choreography. This could turn into a very touchy balancing act. Though if I got hurt in dance class, it would be no different than getting hurt training MMA. No decision just yet, but I would like some input on what I should do. Opportunities like this don't come around all the time; also, people don't get anywhere cause they choose not to risk anything. Without risk, their can be no chance of reward or greatness. Their is a local MMA group called the XCC = Xtreme Cage Combat here in MI. XCClive.com if u like to check out the site. Though I have to say honestly; in the back of my head, I'm already thinking about working on my boxing skills. And I've already started learning some jujitsu and submission moves this past sat. I also feel the same connection with MMA as I do with dancing.
Still, the question remains...Is this what I really want?

Its been quite a while; time just seems to fly on by, can't belive it myself. Lots been going on. Good, bad, and ugly. U be the judge.
As my Empire prepares for all out war, tensions mount as I find myself becoming a bit conflicted about if its the right thing to do. The different sides of me that make up what is the Imperial Council has become divided. My passionate side says to go for it and crush all opposition, the lust in me wants more sex, and the wisdom part warns about the dangers of going all out in such a way. As I get stronger in various areas I get more opposition from the outside. Work, family, the club; envy is almost everywhere for me these days. I feel its green eyed presence trying to burn a hole thru me. As my advantage grows, so does the attitude of people; especially @ work. At one(1) point, some of the co-workers actually started to gang up on my for having to work only half a day fri and weekends off. Guess they feel I have a bit too much power and/or influence in some way.
Events: Recent and goin on right now...
I finally got the new/used car I've been looking for.
I got some cudos at work last week for a tough job well done.
Dating around like crazy; dating now screwing..lol. Though I do that at times too...haha.
Been looking for another position in the A2/ypsi and anyplace in the Canton area.
Went to Jackson last week. Broke the friday tradition of Necto everytime.
Been doing tons of paperwork and making calls for myself as well as my old man.
My nephew graduated with a science degree a couple of weeks ago; I went there, great ceremony.
Been working out more and more. Starting to notice the difference too.
Dance class resumes in just under a week finally.
I'm also considering going into MMA.
I've also got more energy than ever these days. So much that many become irritated and/or intimidated they can't seem to keep up with me. Think u can?
I believe thats it for me in a nutshell. Feel free to hit me up and aske me anything; or just to chat. All are welcome.

Its been forever since I posted here. Partially cause I've been battling an unearthly foe that sees my demise. A patron demon of hell called Belfagore or as he is called in the modern world..Procrastination. He is a tricky and fiendish foe. Very difficult to defeat. He controls SLOTH; which is one(1) of the seven deadly sins. Its as sweet as honey and as corossive as acid. The most deadliest of the sins. But I'm not easy to beat so I'm giving him one(1) hell of a fight.
Another of the sins I've had to deal with is Envy. The envy that some have towards me. One(1) person like that is under the same roof as me. What the hell is the world coming to when your own relatives feel envy towards you? Nutts I tell u.
Here are a few things thats been happening...
I finally got that new car I've been talking about for some time. Its used but new to me and runs like its on air. Didn't have to put any major repair efforts into it. Of course, its not perfect so I'm gonna work on it till it is.
I got a new phone that is cute. A razor.
Still #1 at work. Of course, not everone is pleased with it..haha.
Looking high and low for a new position now that things are getting a bit better.
Making plans to finally move into the western areas. Somewhere between Canton and Jackson. Don't know yet; I would love A2 though.
Been away from Necto and clubbing all together for the last three(3) weeks. Can u believe it? LOL.
And a text message I got yesterday has me in a very good mood. In fact, I'm ready to go back to Necto and rule the floor and stage. WOW!!
Got to go now, a 12 hr shift awaits me.

The last few weeks have seem much activity. I find myself with a jumble of emotions and feelings; fear, empathy, anger, irritation, but also joy, hope, and as always, a positive outlook. Despite all this stuff about the economy and all, I'm roll toward the future with a sense of determination.
I have sealed the deal on another car that I will pick up tomorrow.
My new model profile is up and running since I got my photos back from a shoot last summer.
Heading out to the Necto tonight for some fun and celebration of life and the future.
Work is still the same; the same old crap and people to deal with. Nothing changed.
I got a bit of a surprise yesterday and it was not to my liking but for now I'll just deal with it and watch it.
The weather is warmer and I believe it will get warmer from now on. I'm filled with warmth and excitment.
All in all, more positive than negative right now as I get ready for the Necto once again. And thats not the only thing I'm getting ready for. I'm going full speed with my resume and job hunting plans. Don't know where that will take me, but I'm goin for it none the less.

The last few weeks have been a time of action, planning, projecting, and reflexion. A lot has been going on...
I am now preparing to get my next car; if all works out, it will be tomorrow. Have a fairly good idea of what I'm going to get too.
Tensions continue to mount at work; especially from one(1) in my dept. He doesn't like pressure, let alone know how to handle it. He likes everything all neat and clean and wrapped up. Life however doesn't work that way at all. As pretty much all of us know. We have been feuding lately. Mostly over the fact that I work a 12 hr day and thus leave at 1pm on friday. That leaves him on his own for 4 hrs. Though most of us have been working on our own at times. If we need backup, we go to one(1) of the other depts. Most of the time we don't need it. I think I'd better get something else. I hope it won't but I'm seeing war in the future if I continue to stay.
The home front is doing ok; the old man is being civil at least. We actually work together at times and even get something done now and then.
The Necto continues to be my playground; I love the friday nights and do it up all the way. Though not everyone is happy with it of course...lol.
Speaking of that last comment; I continue to become more assertive and confident. Though some see it as arrogance. @ Necto, work, and even the homebase. I think they are not use to this new personality that has developed with me. After all, I wasn't always like I am now. It is rubbing some people the wrong way. My mom's warned me about being an Alpha. It really is..the good, the bad, and the ugly.
No matter what though....do it anyway, don't let anyone dictate the pace to u. Set your own pace and run with it. If people can't keep up, too bad. Its your life and self preservation is the first law of nature. Its not wrong to go after what u need and/or want.
