It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas...

Let me be the first to wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS!! by the way, it's okay to think I'm completely crazy now

Yesterday was trying...and after running, biking, and kick boxing (oh my..) my feelings were still ruling my evening. So, I loaded some Christmas music and lost myself in the memory-inducing sounds.

This in itself doesn't...

In an effort to wash the last two weeks away, tonight I headed out to the lake with friends. And now I'm home. Call it, a desire to keep their great moods in tact.

Over-emotional
Over-stressed
Over-extended

This isn't what I signed up for.

Self-pity leads to self-loathing, which leads to guilt. Others have it far worse than I do and yet I find a...

Is there such a thing as being "too nice?"

Yesterday, early morning....I'm talking with one of my co-workers about the race last weekend. They bring up the fact that the 500 ratings weren't even comparable to the 600 ratings. I thought for a moment and replied, well, the 500 is blocked from TV 50 miles around Indy to increase track support, maybe that had something...

..i love where my dreams take me...

The night began as many had. A small gathering of ideas and logic swimming in the sweet molasses. Her eyes scanned the surroundings. The warm night was cooled by the soft breeze across the rhythmic waves down the beach. The sun had disappeared hours ago and the moon discovered its twin, reflecting across the calm distant water.

I am drained. Physically, mentally, and emotionally...It's been a hell of a weekend. It's been amazingly fulfilling, though. My theories on mankind have been tarnished by the love and pure joy that comes from others when you give them a piece of yourself, expecting nothing in return. People are good, you just have to choose the company you keep very carefully.

Part of my weekend...

Bruised, sore, and content...

After a shameful defeat in paint-ball yesterday, we went out on the lake. It was just what the doctor ordered...I do have a great group of friends.

My combat skills leave much to be desired, it seems. Instead of shooting the paint-ball gun in my hand, it makes more sense, in my brain anyway, to run at the person and tackle...

What a day, kids...and it doesn't seem to be slowing any time soon. Got my ASS kicked at paint ball this afternoon, note to self, those little things HURT! I should have heeded the warnings.

So, I'm tending to my bruised body and going out on the lake for some drinking and drifting. Hope everyone is having a GREAT weekend! Happy Memorial Day, my friends!

One of the purest sources of happiness for me is finding a common ground with another person and sharing a special bond between myself and them. From something as little as a made up word that only the two of us understand, to something as a shared vacation that birthed an endless stream of inside jokes that no one else would ever understand or laugh...

Tonight I wonder...

I wonder if there is "one" person out there for everyone? Have you met that person? Did it work out? Did you believe someone was that person and it turned out you were so wrong it made you question yourself?

What about forever? Is it feasible to believe that two people can intertwine their lives for 50 years? In today's fast paced...

Oh, happy day!

What a great weekend! I love that my weekends are filled so many things to be happy about. I find myself unable to quit smiling, and then to head into the week with such a positive attitude makes my job so much easier to do. Life is good. I wonder how long before this begins to annoy people? How long before happiness...
