Monday, April 28

I, I can't read the future but I still wanna hold you close
Right now, I need that from you
So give me the morning
Sharing another day with you is all that I want to know
And baby, I, I've tried to forget you
But the light of your eyes still shines, you shine like an angel
A spirit that won't let me go
And I, I didn't wanna tell you things I didn't wanna know myself
I was afraid to show
But you, you gave me a reason, a reason to face the truth, oh yes you did
To face the truth, face the truth, face the truth
And baby, I, I've tried to forget you
But the light of your eyes stil shines, you shine like an angel
A spirit that won't let me go
Won't let me go, let go of my heart - Jon Secada/Angel


I've lost my Harley sunglasses, I'm FRANTIC!

So what day was it I said I watched the Oprah show? Oh yeah, Friday. Well I have started, and I am doing well, with the exception of dizzyness and im HUNGRY! You know what I think though? It's all those bastards inside me wanting to eat thats doing it, Im sticking to it!

I would like to publicly thank my buds who never bitch at me for complaining and letting me cry on thier shoulders. Without y'all I don't know what I wouldve done. Brenda, the bogus emails and pictures brightened up my days. Trink, being here to talk has helped me so much. Going through the same thing may help, who knows. I do know you're a wonderfull person and my life is so much better just knowing you. Y'all are great, and hey it's OK that you dont eat boiled peanuts, you can't help it.
When I'm feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I will always be blessed with love
And as the feeling grows
She breathes flesh to my bones
And when love is dead
I'm loving angels instead Robbie Williams/Angels


Song Of The Day: AC/DC - Ride On

Friday, April 25

So I’m sitting here watching TV yesterday and we normally watch the “Oprah” show each day during dinner, basically because there isn’t anything on any better. And it’s a story about all these people that have lost a lot of weight, just what I want to watch while I’m eating my delivery pizza. But it was amazing how these guys lost like 300 pounds in 1 year, and then it really got me to thinking (uhoh). First of all I don’t really see myself at the weight I’m at very much longer. I wasn’t as big as those guys, but I’m very much out of shape and yes, I’m fat. I always start loosing weight and start getting to where I can feel a difference, and people start commenting and I start buying new clothes, then I stop. I don’t know why the hell I stop, I just do. But these guys on the show gave me this weird sense of “hey if they can do it, so can I!” And you know, I’m a hard-headed bastard, so if anyone can do it I should be able to. I look at food as an enemy now. What’s my plan? Walk then run, everyday, no matter what, beginning with 30 minutes, then up to an hour. Water, lots of water. Eating, healthy, low cal meals, no more sugar, no more sweet tea, no more pizza, no more chips, no more chocolate, I want to be happy with myself, not with what I eat. So in a year I will be different, a totally different person, of this I’m sure. POSITIVE. I PROMISE YOU, as well as myself…

I went to the movie and saw bulletproof monk a week or so ago, I believe I mentioned that in one of my older posts. Anyway there was this commercial for a Japanese movie named “Shaolin Soccer”. It looked like a “Matrix” type movie that had won a lot of awards in Asia. It’s supposed to be opening soon in the U.S. Anyway, I was on eBay and found the DVD (with subtitles, don’t really like that), but it was only $8 so I got it. I think it should be pretty good, supposed to be the next “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”.



Other significant eBay purchases, 1 casino quality deck of Iraqi Playing Cards, for the low low price of $6.95. What am I gonna do with all this junk???



Song Of The Day: David Gray – Babylon
Long after moments of closeness have passed.
A part of you remains with me
and warms the places your hands have touched...
and hastens the heart for your return.

I think I’ve mentioned before on here somewhere that I really liked the movie “Grand Canyon” I watched it again the other night and it really makes you think. There is this one scene where they are comparing life to the Grand Canyon and how it’s all so trivial when you really think about it. Kind of like a gnat on a horse’s tail that you’re drive by in a car going 70 miles an hour. Well, the whole movie isn’t as stupid as I’ve probably made that sound, but I really liked it. Oh yeah, and everybody dies in the end…

4 o’clock. The seconds tick by counting down till that magic hour, like the sound of a thousand drums beating as one. The anticipation, wondering, palms getting wet with sweat and of course my mind nowhere else but those thoughts. I’m sure my anxiety level from all of this is going to boil over, like the movie Risky Business when young tom is waiting for the clock to strike 3 to leave school. Then the worst part is when it passes, and nothing happens, then the let down if magnified that much more. And the thoughts are there. 4:15, no not today, maybe tomorrow.

Work really sucked today, either everybody is going crazy or it’s just me. Hmmmmm, yeah I agree what’s up with all those bastards anyway?

Random Rants:
•I hate big candles; they burn down the middle and waste all the wax on the outside, who invented them anyway?
•Can cokes taste like metal. And by the way, all fizzy beverages in Georgia are “Cokes” get over it.
•Showering with no towel in the bathroom. WHEN I’m single I shall own 5000 friggin towels and not use 5 to drape around my wet ass every time I shower then use them to hide from the aliens as Arnie did in Total Recall, lol.
•Cell phone bills, does anyone know how to read the bill? Bastards!
•More to come, if ya want, let me know…

Well, I have a class tonight. Its bad enough going these days after I work 10 hours at the plant, but tonight is even worse cuz the class didn't make originally and this one guy said he would pay my whole salary just for the 3 hours. So now I feel like there is this pressure to make sure he learns something, lol. Anyway. No really big news today, but I must say I helped Brenda with her BLOG last night and she has the best sense of humor to me, I just laugh out loud when I read it. I will post a link to it here soon, check back!

I keep seeing Penelope everywhere...

Song Of The Day: Bryan Adams - When You're Gone

Tuesday, April 22

Wow, long weekend. Was nice to visit with my sister and her family, but seems every time she comes home I gotta work on her PC. Well, hopefully this time I fixed it where it will work for a bit longer, plus I made her buy Noton, so maybe she won’t get anymore viruses.

Easter was OK, ate too much, kids hunted eggs.

DL’ed Madonna’s new CD, 3 or 4 good songs. Train has a new CD coming out next month, can’t wait for that. No other major music news.

I simply MUST stop listening to this album, its totally making me want to slip my throat! How can a band write 10 songs about breaking up with someone, and each song is something that you can relate to??? Def Leppard – X

Hey, Pip emailed me he has the greatest BLOG; Check It Out

Why do my posts seem uninteresting to me???

Picked Kalynn up this morning at 8:00am, she had a good time, im happy... But she's home, so I'm happier.

Plans today are going over to Mom & Dad's house, eat, visit and reformat Gia's PC, Yippee!

Went to the movie yesterday, saw "Bulletproof Monk". It was OK but he dies in the end! Just kidding. Liked it but I wont be buying the DVD. They are now putting the popcorn in see-thru plastic bags, and I had mine buttered, so when I got to the bottom there was like a cup of yellow oil there, ugh. After the movie went to Target and bought Easter stuff, I wasn't able to find Alien in Target or Wal-Mart. I saw it on eBay, $40 for the 4-pack, will probably do that.

Was able to play POGO from Dads house and he is on Bellsouth, so i'm guessing something in my system is preventing it. Oh well, I plan on wipeing this thing out in a week or so.

Went by the Indian Motorcycle Dealership yesterday, I really liked them, what do you think? Click Here Only problem is that bike is $23,000. Kind've steep. Still want a Harley, but now I got something else to think about.

I want to get back online tonight, hope I can, been very busy lately, thats good.

Going to sleep early tonight, very tired for some reason. Thinking about buying Alien, the DVD. Been thinking about the movie lately for some reason, I liked the 1st 2, and maybe the last one a little bit, the 3rd one sucked. No plans this weekend, except Gia and her family and Easter Sunday with everyone. Maybe going to the movies tomorrow night, dunno what I wanna watch yet.

Wish I had something interesting to talk about tonight, maybe tomorrow, ok?

Song Of The Night: Robbie Williams - Angels

Wednesday, April 16

I don't know why, but everytime I start a post, I want to begin by saying "Hi!". Screwed up. Anyway...

Nothing much going on, Kay is off to D.C.. Worried about her, miss her, quiet here. Listening to new Fleetwood Mac & Pete Yorn, like them. Work has gone well the past 3 days. No work Friday, Gia will be home tomorrow. Bought "The Transporter" DVD yesterday, I LOVE it!

If you have a friend who hurts, you hurt as well...

Monday, April 14

I had the wierdest dream last night. Well, first of all I didnt go to bed as my countdown stated, I got involved in a movie that I couldnt stop watching "Grand Canyon". I finally ended up going to bed around 1:30am, oh man was I tired when I got up at 5:30am. So anyway, I'm BLOGGING from work, isnt that fun? Back to the dream, it was so wierd, like vivid finger colors running around in circles, all bright and almost cheerfull, then when the colors started mixing together they turned brown then black. Im sure that must mean something, can't be good, lol. There I go again thinking too damn much.

Listened to the new Fleetwood Mac CD, I'm not a huge FM fan, but I must say it sounds very good. Also listened to the Kelly Clarkson CD, ehhhhh, I guess if you like American Idol you may like it, I didn't really care for it.

Kalynn is on her way to Washington tomorrow, till Friday. Im gonna be a nervous wreak. First time shes ever been away from home this long, plus with this whole war thing going on, trying not to worry...

Well, I'll be back online later tonight maybe, if not I'll go ahead and leave you with my music pick for today...

Song Of The Night: Johnny Cash - Hurt

Sunday, April 13

Just a quick note, to let you know.

Grilled out today at Mom & Dad's house, no skeeter bites, thats abnormal! Its nice to go there, watch the Koi, watch Kay jump on the trampoline. Homemade burgers & Ben & Jerry's "Cherry Garcia" for desert, almost couldn't have been better.

Work tomorrow...

Count downs.....
Days till I retire - 9095
Days till I get my Harley - 720
Hours till I have to be at work - 8
Minutes till I'm asleep - 30

Song Of The Night: Dave Mathews Band - The Space Between

Saturday, April 12

Hello, I’m back. Not much happening today, I didn’t even get out of the house. My Satellite card got zapped so now I don’t even have TV to watch. Rented the movie “The Truth About Charlie” with Mark Walburg and it was kind of weird, but OK overall.

It’s hard when you do something for so long to stop. Its like if you eat M&Ms all the damn time, well your lost without M&Ms. Get a life Glenn (Stop thinking about it so much!)

I downloaded a new CD today, Pete Yorn. I must say I kind’ve like it, I may buy it. And for those of you who don’t like the songs I suggest, its more than just what’s hot at the time. It’s about my feelings and my mood. Sometimes I pick songs that are in the top 10. Sometimes I pick songs that were never close. Take your blinders off and experience something different. But I will go ahead and warn you, my mood these days is very down, so be prepared for slow stuff…

Here is my thinking on downloading music. When I was younger I spent ALL of my $ on music, LPs and 8-Tracks, and then cassettes and singles. I got screwed so many times by groups releasing an album that had one cover song on it and everything else SUCKING! Then the really funny thing is, when these so-called mega-groups were struggling to get to the top and are now billionaires they sue and bitch about Napster and MP3s (i.e. Metallica). Now what people don’t realize is the way they got as rich and famous as they are is by giving the music away to begin with and begging people to listen. They are soooo stupid, these musicians that say its stealing. Do you think I wouldn’t buy my favorite artists CD? Duh. Prove yourselves, lower the damn prices and get a life! For every single song I’ve downloaded, I’ve bought the CDs of the ones I consider buyable. All the other MP3s I DL are ones I’ve previously bought. The sad thing is guys, the music industry is making twice now what they were 10 years ago. Wow, I feel better now! My music folder currently holds: 24.5GB (26,378,329,159 bytes) – 11,076 Files, 1877 Folders Bastards! – Tomorrow I will explain to you my views on software piracy!

It’s good to have a friend to help you through hard times. It’s good to cry on their shoulder and let them tell you it’s OK, when really it isn’t. It’s nice to hear that it’s not your fault when probably it is. Thank you.

Song Of The Day: Sister Hazel – Your Winter
Well, it seems I think too much, according to my own fears as well as Giant Bluefin’s comment. You know, that was the whole purpose of that last BLOG entry, trying to figure out why the hell I’m doing this. And Bluefin was gracious enough to offer his support. You know Bluefin, I might actually listen to your comments if you weren’t a friggin Canadian. I used to think Shania was the only good reason not to nuke Canada, but I do have a few good friends there now, so I won’t go as far as putting down all of Canada. But I must say, I don’t understand why someone would visit a site and write derogatory comments, strange to me I might say. I guess I could understand if I were attacking someone or validating some type of cruelty of something of that nature. I’m sure you won’t come back, but if by chance you do, please leave me the address to your page so I can see what’s so damn important that you muse about. I wonder if you were looking for a BLOG to read from somebody that doesn’t think too much….

Now I feel better! I knew this whole damn BLOG thing must have a purpose!

Song Of The Night: Journey – Who’s Crying Now

Thursday, April 10

You know, I suck at this BLOG stuff. I mean, for the most part I guess it’s supposed to be like a diary or journal. I think those are supposed to be private aren’t they? I'm not sure.

Why would you do this on the internet for someone to read? Either you write your deepest darkest secrets, for a stranger to read. Or perhaps you write something down that you want someone specific to read how you feel, or maybe things your didn't or forgot to tell them. Or worst case, you're just writing for no damn reason at all, hmmmm, nah that couldn't be the case. There are always hidden messages in not so subtle places like song lyrics or quotes. I guess when you talk to someone, and you tell them how you feel, that should be enough, but there is always a part of me that wants to try and explain my point of view until the other person agrees with me, or at least understands me.

I want it always my way! I guess that works for a while, but there comes a point in time where it doesn’t matter if your views are right, wrong or indifferent. You can be right and still lose what you wanted, or you can be wrong but in the long run be right. But who decides? It doesn’t matter anymore.

For instance, I've gotten the reputation of "freaking out". Like if something doesn’t go my way, I tend to show my ass. I justify it by reasoning in my head all the points that lean in my favor, but I must admit I’m not right all the time, and probably not even half the time (if I’m lucky). Looking back I can see mistakes and changes that I would do if I could. Looking back, far back, I know several decisions that I would’ve made differently. Friendships that ended to suddenly, friendships that should’ve never happened, jobs I shouldn’t have taken, life decisions that I totally blew, things I shouldn’t have bought, things I shouldn’t have said, choices I shouldn’t have made, places I shouldn’t have went, things I shouldn’t have done. I judge people of doing things that I have done myself, I overlook what’s right in my face, I don't embrace what’s right in front of me, I do things for all the wrong reasons, but most of all I try to impress people & not myself.

There is no doubt in my mind that I'm the nicest, most sincere, kindest, thoughtful, politest person I know. I have a conscious, which makes me battle with myself everyday, questioning my actions and thoughts. I tend to justify things I do with things that do not matter. Let me see, how do I know I’m this great person I describe myself to be? If I'm in a group of people that are talking derogatively about someone I always feel bad about the person that is being talked about. If I tell someone I love them, I do. I always open doors for women, not because I'm a male chauvinist but because I respect women, as I do my Mother. I cry during sad movies. I enjoy giving more than receiving. Babies make me smile. Id rather be happy than be angry. I’d rather play a game than go hunting, killing animals. I'm a supervisor and the only part of my job I hate is disciplining someone. When I make a friend it’s for life, I can count my friends on one hand and I think that speaks for itself. I have a lot of friends, but only a select few “FRIENDS”. When I lose one it hurts so deeply, I hurt...

So life will go on, and I will type here, maybe that person someone somewhere will read it and understand and connect and I may touch someone the way I was touched. Times, they go on. People, they change. I can’t blame myself or others for what they think or do, I will try not to be so easy to judge and you know, maybe I don’t suck so much on this BLOG thing. I feel better now, and I take each day as a possibility now. A way to learn or understand how I am the way I am. For you see, As I’ve pointed out, Im a great person, but I have my faults, and they would take up a lot more room than I have time to type tonight. Perhaps tomorrow, if it ever comes.
Just read over some of my older posts, sad huh? How shallow I was, and probably still am. Oh well. Well try to write about things a bit more important in life. Um, nah, screw that! So did anyone watch the Cher concert night before last? I thought it was pretty good, how old is she now, like 55 or so. Well I think shes gained a bit of weight, but now looks great instead of skin & bones. Of course thats just my opinion.

Things are pretty much the same, no changes to speak of.

Hi, It's been a while and a lot has been going on, I will try and catch you up, and maybe figure out what went on myself. So for the time being, check back regularly. Hey, isn't there a spell check here now? I think I had a problem with that before...
