And, several relationships and many months later...

Yeah, I keep a blog.

Life is a bit screwed up right now. More later.

So now an update explaining the long absence...

Somehow I've wound up in a long distance relationship, despite the fact that I swore them off after the last one. It's not too far, only about 3 1/2 hours, but it's still not exactly easy. Right now one of us is making the drive at least every other weekend, and we're on the phone for an...

As well as can be.
Just beat myself into the ground makeing a last
minute round to Reading Pa. And then getting
back to do 2 back to back rounds to Portland Me.
Lucky I live halfway between the plant and Portland.
After 3 weeks of < 40 hrs this 50 eases the pinch.

WTF you doin' in Monessen? No WONDER you call yourself "strandedone." tongue tongue tongue tongue

I'm from Charleroi. You know, the land where they say things like "yunz" and "warsh" instead of "wash." biggrin

Realized something vital today. There are people I don't really like and don't want to be around more than I have to be, and I've been worrying far too much about them liking me. That ends now.

Also, I finally found a new dojo! New dojo = happy strandedone
nikonphoto80:
i know that feeling.

I'm realizing more and more lately how much I hate the town I'm stuck in right now. There's nothing to do here, and no one that I can really just hang out with. I'm slowly going crazy here. I need to get out.

my town is the same way. when i was in a different town i thought this one would be better. i was wrong.

Beautiful post man. I think I had a similar revelation a couple of years ago when I was living in Santa Fe, NM. Although it wasn't as lucid. It was more of a, "Fuck him if he doesn't want to hang out,"

I can't speak to the dojo thing. Good luck with it though, I am envious of people that have the discipline to do martial arts.

Posting twice in less than 24 hours, but I need to vent. I happened to walk by where my car was parked tonight, and I saw someone had graffitied the drivers side windows. Thankfully they were either a total idiot or not trying to do serious damage, because it wiped right off, but it still pisses me off. The town makes us pay $20 a...

You know, I can't even listen to when girls bitch...cos sometimes they put themselves into really dumb situatiions. I'm currently getting better at not being naive and letting emotions rule me.

Can we wrap them in barbed wire?

Since Overcast asked about my artwork, pictures of some of my non-jewelry work are now up. I'll take any excuse to show off a little. Thanks Overcast!

The instructor for one of my classes this semester used to make a living as a tattoo artist, and still keeps in practice. We're talking about everyone in class getting a class tattoo from him.
nikonphoto80:
The artworks look really nice.

I know a lot of people who have art degrees who started doing tattoos.

I had a instructor that had both his arms done.

First day of classes. This may sound weird, but it's good to be back in class. There are finally people in town again. It was a strange day. A friend who went completely crazy on me a month ago and walked out of my life entirely came up to me and said "I've been a dick. Can we be cool again?" I suspect we probably...

I love 'so bad they're good' movies. Even here in old Blighty things are sweltering, I almost have a tan!

Went drinking with Monroe, Riz, and Panda Eyes. This was awesome. We must do it again soon. Sleep now. More later.

All right, new semester starts on Monday. Time to get moving on things I've been putting off for too long. I've lived here for 4 months and still haven't unpacked. I've got a number of projects sitting on the shelf that need to be...
