Timing is everything....right?
Category: Life

  Go figure, within the last week more shit has happaned than in quite a long time, but the timing fucking sucks!!  First the mgmt team of our aprtments sent us a bit of info on our lease running out and they gave us until the 15th of this month to decide if we had intentions of staying, or leaving. Well the wife and I decided that we both hate moving, so until we can buy something then another year long lease would be best. A couple days after that the wife and I decided it is time to put the turd into a daycare. We make an appointment to tour one of the 3 that we had in mind, and was actually already leaning towards this one even before the tour. They give us an appointment for yesterday morning, so we all 3 plan to go to the center to check it out. then Monday when I get to work I get informed that the company has placed a position online that I have been wanting for years, but the position had been consumed under another. So I bust out a new resume, and letter of intent to turn into the boss, and his boss. Then we go to the center for the tour and decide the place is very likable, but we are uncertain about committing to it just yet. Then after an hour of touring and talking with the assistant director we are informed that we have until Friday to decide.....Well, to say the least I don't like being under such time constraints considering it is involving a choice that will directly impact my son. Then after I go to work yesterday afternoon my wife calls an old friend who has been talking about selling his condo, but we just kinda thought it was idle talk. Yet he tells my wife that hewants us to come look at it this weekend if it is possible for us to change our year lease into a 6 month lease. This less than a week after signing a new lease. So now the wife is planning on talking to the mgmt team at our apartments about switching the lease, if everything works out , then I'll be checking out loans for buying a condo! Then we decided to check out two more daycares on the coming up Tuesday. After all is said aboutthe daycare my wife is now worried about leaving the turdin the center for 8 hrs. a day. I understand her worries, but it really seems the only way to get ahead funancially. If she works more hours, she makes more money. If I go to first shift I will get more overtime. So with the new promotion in the air, the daycare scene unknown, my wife's hours spinning about, a chance to possibly buy a condo, and the unknowns of our lease all floating around in my head, what is it I decide to to do..??

 Take next Tuesday off so I can enjoy $2.50 pint night with my friends! Good Solution, eh.?

All star team
Current mood: disappointed
Category: Sports

 Simply disgusted.... Lidstrom is about to be beaten out of the starting line of the western conference allstar team because someone thought it a good idea to rally behind a d man that does not deserve to go. Rory Fitzpatric has no goal, or assists this season, yet he is about to go the allstar game inplace of other more worthy d men. To ALL my hockey fans out there, please, go vote at NHL.com for a worthy d man, not fucking Rory Fitzpatrick.

Holidays

 To start off I want to say that I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, and could find some things to be Thankful for.  My wife, son and myself all went to my grandmother's place for thanksgiving, and we all pigged out. My kid loved my Grannie's mac and cheese. After pigging out  I let my oldest nephew drive me to my house ( got his permit), so I could change clothes, and grab my hockey stick and skateboard. Once we got back i grabbed my board and showed my middle nephews friend some easy tricks, then proceeded to shoot some pucks at my grannie's garage. I always enjoy my time with my hockey stick....I'm not the best, but I have a blast. I really don't care anymore if I'm on the ice in a game, just practicing, on the rollerblades playing or practicing, or as I was this day in tennis shoes and shooting. It all makes me fucking giddy. Don't know when I'll be able to get back on the ice again. I wear contacts, and over the last few months my right eye isn't producing enough mosture to wear them, so i've been wearing glasses. I can not see well enough without either to play a game, but I am sure I would be able to skate and shoot without them, maybe. I'm hoping that soon enough I will get my eye fixed and be able to get my ass back on the ice. i'm thinking that once taxes get back i'm going to hopefully spend some of the money to get me on a league (if my eye will allow), and get some more ink on my bod. I've always planned to get my kid on the ice with me once he turned 2, but after his last dr. appointment, I don't think I'll get him on the ice until he is at least 3. His dr. is concerned about his ankles getting hurt. I always figured on getting him some decent skates, helmet, shin, and elbow pads to protect him, but I guess I will be waiting another year. I know he will love it...he grabs my sticks everytime I bring them out and runs through the house trying to use it like hockey players. It's prety fuckin' funny to see, my sticks are easily twice his friggin'  height!

friends gone, but not forgoten
Current mood: frustrated

 O.K., I've been telling myself that it would be pointless to post this, but what the fuck. It has occured to me that most (all) of my friends from my past are no longer friends. They do not call, email, come by, or anything that normal friends do. I admit my first best friend was my fuck up, I did him very wrong, and I'm surprised that he did not end up trying to kill me in my sleep. In my defense I was young, stupid, and overly horny. It's the rest of my "old friends" that i'm not getting what happaned. You see a few years ago I quit getting high and such because I did not see the point in it any longer, it seemed like a waste to me. I'm sure that made me loose some, but not all. Then my best friend ( not the one mentioned earlier) had broken up with his girlfriend, and I HONESTLY thought they where done, for good. So when I get back from PA with my wife, then girlfriend, we got a call from his ex girlfriend (let's call her Mary) wanting to get up with us because she was depressed over her breakup from (lets call him Mark), and being friends with Mary as well as with Mark the wife and I said sure. So we met at Copelands, I began to drink with dinner and she(Mary) began going on and on about Mark, and all the shit he does and doesn't do. Well Mark and I had been friends for a long time, however, I have seen him break up with a ton of girls, and really did not think that I was doing anything wrong by telling her the things that I knew where true. After more beer she started asking questions that i did not have answers to and I said to her, " I do not know as far as I know he could be fucking gay, he has always enjoyed picking on all the smaller people around him." Well after we all finished eating I told her that I was trusting her to not go and repeat what I told her to Mark, because his friendship meant a lot to me even though we had not hung out much since I quit getting high. Well as my wife and I are heading home we pass Mary, heading to Mark's house. Well he got really pissed, and I understand why, but he never seemed to understand that I really thought they where done, really done. They always seemed to be bitching about the other, and I'm no fuckin' Dr. phil, so I fucked up by telling someone some honest shit, and then within 6 months I lost my best friend. What makes this so weird to me is that I was getting ready to ship out for the Marines,a nd I really was depending on this friend, my wife, and one other friend(I'll mention momentarily who we will call June) to write to me and keep me going through all the bullshit. Well, Mark ended up getting married to Mary, and didn't invite me. Mark was my best man and was told to bring who he wanted to the wedding, and he responded with he was not bringing Mary'cause he wanted to have fun. At this ttime they where still off and on from what he said. So we have my wedding and all, later i find out that he told Mary that she was not invited, but he told me not to! So as a payback I was not invited to theirs, which really hurts because we've really known each other for a very long time. Then a bit more time passes, and I have my son...he has yet to meet my boy. That really doesn't seem right. I know that Mark is doing well because he is that type of person that just really seems to get a lot of great oppertunites in life, as a matter of fact I used to really envy all the things that had been layed before him, now I'm over it, I mean it is what it is. He had a hard time in his past and I guess he really does deserve to have good things now. I just miss his friendship. There is no one else in this world that I have met that I would rather spare drunk with, go skating drunk with, and just sit around bullshitting with. Plus in my mind, he and I were going to be linemates on the ice, but I don't even think he cares to play hockey anymore. What a waste considering that we complimented each other so well when we had on the skates! Now onto June...

   June and I had been friends since we were kids. We always seperate from time to time, and then bounce back like we never took any time away from each other. However, even though she has been ill, we have not seen each other in almost 2 years. The only reason she has even seen my boy is because my wife took him by a few times. I really feel like this is all connected, because before she went to Mark and Mary's wedding she used to be around us all the time, like almost everyday. Yet since then she doesn't seem to care what happens to us. It's a shame...I am not going to compete to try to win friends form other friends, I don't have the time or energy for that kinda shit, so I guess in all I only need to say one thing to each.

Mark~ It was great growing with you having all the crazy times we've had (and their has been a few), learning together, and mostly playing. All the diffrent sports related activities you and I used to mess around with was just fucking fantastic! I'll never forget the day the wife and I went out and bought you and Mary the rollerblades so you guys could play roller hockey with us, and you did the helicopter spin with your stick held out waiting to decapitate someone! I never attempted to betray you, even though this is what you considered it.

Mary~You had been a great new friend, and I liked you with Mark, but you let me down when it mattered the most. That wasn't right. I could care less as to why you thought going and telling him what was told you was a good idea, just keep in mind I DID NOT LIE TO YOU ABOUT ANY OF IT!!!!

June~ You are the most disappointing of the three...you just blew us off, and I guess in all it is your choice.

To all 3 of you, I will miss the times we've shared but I guess this is good by. I hope you all prosper, and have a long life! Take care my freinds, I'll never forget you

sick people
Current mood: sick

Monday morning, here I am sick......why am I sick when I have not had a big enough cold to stop me in months upon months....simple, people come to work with fevers and shit like that. Now I'm sitting here knowing that i'm going to need to drag my ass into work ('cause no one else does the sign dept.), pass around the germs again, and get home late enough to make me feel even worse! To frustrate me even more hockey season starts this week, and it looks like I'm going to be in the fucking germ dumps for it! I realize that some people don't go to work just not to go, and those are the ones that make the sick ones feel like they need to go just to make sure all is well, and done. I bought beer Saturday after I left work (my fucking day off), and have felt too shitty to even crack one open. Damn it all I want to do is go to sleep and wake in Tuesday morning feeling great.

Current mood: pleased

According to the Detroit Free Press, the Redwings have announced that our new captain will be Lidstrom. Personally, I think that is a great choice for the big "C" left vacant after the retirement of Mr. Redwing himself, Stevie Yzerman!Lidstrom has quietly helped lead our team for over a decade now, and I am pleased to see that he has been nominated for the next big step! Congratulations to Nicklaus Lidstrom!

money
Current mood: aggravated

  O.K, I hate to complain about shit that I have no control over, but I really need to on this issue. I work, and work a lot. My wife works parttime, at a high rate. Yet we can not afford the nicer things we would like, as  amatter of fact over the past two weeks I've borrowed $125.00 from people!! I hate to borrow money from people! I know there is nothing wrong with it, but it always makes me feel like I'm just some poor piece of white fucking trash that needs assistance to get through fucking life!! Well the fact of the matter is that i can not understand why it is that even if I wanted some assistance say to help pay for my kid to go to daycare I get turned down because I make too much fucking money! The pisser behind that is how many fucking people out there get assistance for daycare, food, housing and such that don't even fucking try to better themselves!! I mean I sometimes will work almost 60 hrs a fucking week! I'm planning on trying to get a second job on the weekend to help even shit out a little, but just had to bitch at the way the world seems to work. Also, I don't want anyone to read this and think that I'm trying to plead for some fucking handout, that's not the reason I wrote it...I just needed to bitch a little before I change my kid's shitty diaper and get ready for work.

Private Profiles
Current mood: amused

 O.K, so I am aware that I am going to piss a lot of people off when I say this, but I always piss people off anyhow so nothing new. I have noticed as of late how many people make their profiles "private", well, I'm not real sure why..Maybe 'cause you got some kinda rude asshole or something like that, I don't know. So I am on a mission to invite as many "private" profiles as possible as my friend..Why you ask...well, why not. If we don't get along, oh well I'll take them off the list!
