As of lately I've been trying to brainstorm on some interesting youtube videos that I want to make. The most promising idea right now is doing a series of movie/tv show reviews, using images and clips from those movies to make one 5-10 minute youtube video review.. I've started working on a few ideas that I've wanted to do but I want some input from...

Another wonderful update from Atti.... commencing!

Well life is not going so well my friends. As of right now I'm close to a thousand dollars in the hole with the bank. They call me daily to find out when I'm going to make a minimum payment back and I don't have much to tell them. I'm without a job and right now I've been trying...

So today promises to be warm... sixty-seven, says the weatherman. I wonder how much he gets paid to pick daily temperatures like numbers in a lottery drawing. But then again I suppose there is some exact science to it all. I hope the weather holds. It would be nice to get outside, breathe in the fresh Midwestern air and play disc golf for the first...

So here's an update in the world of Atti:

I've been dealing with depression as most of you know which led me to quit my job unexpectedly a few weeks ago. I'm seeing a therapist and taking medication right now to help with my depression. Although I'm trying to get back on my feet I'm seriously negative in the bank right now with no job....

Monday morning, the start of the new week. At 340 am, I"m laying here in the dark, with only the glow of the laptop to guide my words to the screen. I always turn on The Album Leaf when I'm sleeping and/or writing, so right now I'm surrounded by it's ambient melodies. In three hours I'll be at work, in the grocery story,working in the...

Here's a little more that I've gone over from the story I put on here a few weeks ago. Enjoy!


Ethan noticed that the coffee had shot right through him, and he needed to use the bathroom. He hated to have to leave at this moment, especially when there were so many unanswered questions. Who knew would what happen when he was in the bathroom....

Two blogs in one day.. it's like your favorite clothing store going on sale... except I'm not a store selling merchandise, just shitty ramblings. Today was a "good" day, when I gazed at my reflection in the mirror I didn't feel an uncontrollable urge to gouge out my eyes with a salad fork (yes I have some class). Two days in a row.. thats gotta...

Three days to go and I'm already feeling the strain. Commercials, ads and word of mouth carry the painful stings of Valentine's Day. To quote someone famous, "a day created by Hersey's and Hallmark." A month ago I thought I would find myself actually celebrating the "holiday" with someone that I cared about, until that fantasy was blotted out of existence in one foul swoop....

So it's been a little while since I've let the world know how Atti is doing, so what better way to start (I haven't slept yet today) my day than to write a blog. On this February 7th, 2008 I sit looking out my window at the foot of snow lying on the ground. Mother nature graced us with a fresh six inches yesterday afternoon,...

Monday morning, 3am. Literally the beginning of a new week. I always wonder what my weeks will be like on sunday night/ monday morning when I'm sitting here alone. There are always a series of expectations or goals you set for yourself. "I plan to go work out (so many times) this week. I need to get my hair cut. Or write that paper." We...

Thanks for bearing with me on this one. I just had this idea and just started writing it out seeing where it went. Completely wasn't expecting that at all so I appreciate those that read it through to the end. Thats not by any means the end, lets just call it a first installment. I do have a good idea where I'm going to take...

In lieu of everything that has transpired over the last six weeks I still find myself surprised at some things that happen to me. I thought to myself "how could things get any more out of control than they are" and then I wake up in the morning to find myself staring at a message someone left me that morning or a voice mail, leaving...
