HELLo all! Sorry I haven't taken the time to make an update in almost three weeks. The ankle injury I made note of in one of my comments postings set me back a bit. I was off of work for a little over a week and during that time I fell behind on some school work...so there was the mad catch-up that ensued because of that, then getting back into the work groove...and playing shitloads of Warcraft this past weekend! As of this writing I am a tad less than 43,000 XP away from level 55! I'm rather stoked...at this point in the game it just seems like there's no shortage of death to be dealt.

I guess I don't have much (interesting) to say at the moment...but I'll try anyway... I'm sort of giving up on 'trying' to date right now...but not giving up entirely on 'dating'... I've been trying to meet people via match.com for the past three months and put a lot of effort into it but with little, no, and/or disappointing results. So if by chance someone comes along or a friend wants to play matchmaker, then keen...but I'm taking a break from lady-hunting at the moment. This sounds totally cheesy but I'm sort of going to focus on me a bit. I spent four years bending over backwards for my last girlfriend (even after we went 'on a break') and tried everything I could to make that bitch happy...but I guess it just wasn't enough.

And even though I haven't given up on dating, I do think that perhaps I'm just not meant to be in a relationship. Hey, we can't all be 'winners'...we're not all born beautiful...we're not all born intelligent...we are not special, or beautiful and unique snowflakes...we are all part of the same compost heap (and kudos to anyone who can name the movie the last two lines came from...although it is not a direct quote and has been adjusted to fit this posting)...some remain compost and some grow into wonderful and useful things. Some people are probably just meant to be single. When I step back and look at myself I can't imagine that I am someone's dream guy or somebody you would want to grow old with. I'm going to end up being that crazy old guy at the end of the block who owns a menagerie of snakes and reptiles or something and whose house you're afraid to pass by. I guess I'm just a bit too off-kilter for anyone 'normal' and I'm not extreme enough for the opposite end of the spectrum...just sort of stuck in the middle...in limbo...which is further incentive for me to get off my ass and get cracking on starting the band that LordBasaThunder and I have been discussing for the past few months...some good solid concepts...we, um, just need the, uh...music. At least the music will always be there for me and never betray me like any fellow 'humans' have...
