Well,

I was without internet at home for a couple of weeks. Lamez. But I got things under control now, so I can check SG again. Turns out they don't look kindly on this website at my workplace. :-D

A few weeks back I got a call from my father in Costa Rica. He was in the Hospital because he had been having some serious health problems. For a couple of days there I thought he was a goner. I was about to drop everything and fly down there but he started to get better. He's back home now and he insists that he is doing ok, but I am likely to fly down there in March to pick him up. I really don't want to make this trip, but my dad is old and I worry about him a lot. I have two brothers and a sister and none of them seems to really concern themselves enough to try to help him out. I doubt my dad is going to be around for the next 5 or ten years, they are really going to regret ignoring him so much when he passes away.

I started painting miniatures again a few weeks back too. I saw some of Pacman's stuff and it inspired me to get back into the hobby. It's been keeping me out of trouble for the last few weekends.

I went and did a silly thing recently. I promised my Ex-Girlfirend that I would help her buy a car. It's stupid because I have so many other things that I should be spending this money on. But I can't help the fact that I worry about her having to take the bus to work all the time. I am not going to lie to myself. I know I still have feelings for her. But I'm not trying to do this to get into her good graces or anything. I really don't have any trouble with that. It's just that we split up at a time when she was really down and out, and I've always felt really bad about that. I think that if I can help her get her own car, then she'll have more freedom to take her life in the direction that she wants instead of always having to go along with the people who provide her transportation. I dunno.

Anyway, that's all that's going on right now. Later.
