-tuesday-afternoon
- ate some sandwiches (ham, cheese, w/mayo+mustard, on wheat), took a shower, was gonna go to my moms and as i'm walking downstairs she calls and talks to my grandma and wants to talk to me, so i do, and she asks if i can drive my bro and sis to krav maga, so i say yes, and wait a half hour then go over. eat some lasagna and drink some water, then take them, then hang at the mall, then pick them up, watch pride and prejudice, eat some ice cream, then some mini sausages, then watch the movie and talk with my sis, then i come home.
- i put sleepwalking, by sant0 & johnny, on my mp3 player yesterday, and when my sis was driving us around i connected it to the car for us to listen to, and the song makes me feel like crying... have you ever seen la bamba? the end i always think of and it makes me wanna cryfrown i feel kinda sad just thinking of the song.
"I feel like I just found out my favorite love song was written about a sandwich."
- stayed up til almost 4 looking at old high school friends on myspace

-wednesday-
- woke up around 1030ish, was gonna go online, but listening to music and starting right away at solitare distracted me. just after 11 i remembered i have things to do today, so i turned off the comp and started the shower, then remembered i have to put the soap on a dry driveway so i moved my car then washed off the driveway, then took a shower, got online for 20 minutes or so to check messages and such, then left at noon, putting on the cement cleaner before i went.
- had a wierd dream last night, can't quite remember it all, but was smoking cigars and cigarettes, and builing a building or in a building, and got in some stupid fight with my best friend cause my zippo wouldn't close all the way and stayed lit like it was gonna explode and i didn't want to get rid of it and he said to throw it away... what i remember of it was wierdsurreal

- recycled some plastics (you can't use the 5cent machine if the bottle are crushed, so i had to go by weight, and i only got about 2/3's as much (43 bottles x 5c= $2.15... i got $1.44 tongue) then cashed a check, $20 gas into the beast (5.156 gallons), then saw a new smoke shop and went in to check it out.
and it was BRAND new, like probably the 1st week it's open, all new, and about 90% stocks, still some empty space, checked it out, nice shop, all the smoking accesories, lots of hookah's, little tchiotchkies too, condoms, keychains. bought a cigar, humidor felt a little too humid (more on that later). the code enforemant lady was there too, cited the guy for his temporary signstongue the cashier lady gave me a free lighter as i was leaving toosmile

to the post office, money orders, stamps, then sent off the bills. lotto ticket and $15 for my phone minutes, then to my moms. put my beers in the freezer, ate some leftover lasagna, drank some water, watched some of hot fuzz, then it was time to drink so i took the beers out, my sis asked me to take her to walmart, so i put the beers in the fridge and took her to walmart. funny story:

my sis watched Underworld the other day, and for almost a week has wanted to see underworld evolution, so yesterday we're talking about it and i say,"isn't it rated R?" (our mom wants NO R rated movies in the house... they're evil or somethingsurrealtonguewhatever ) and she says, "Mom says it's ok cause vampires and werewolves are real so it's ok to watch once to study," which is a typical thing for our mom to saysurrealsurrealsurreal



so we get underworld evolution, and they watch it. i go in the backyard with my stogie, my mp3 player, my beer and a book (joseph heller, catch as catch can, published and unpublished short stories) and start to light my cigar. kinda rough getting it lit, it's windy, but light's ok, and i'm smoking (nice cigar, $1.99, new brand of cigar for me... All Americas) and i'm smokin and drinkin and reading, and i notice my cigar is not burning on about 2/3's of the wrapper, and i have like a 2" ashline running down the side and the rest isn't even burnt or charred looking, so i hit it with the lighter and then tap it off. happens again, except this time after about a half inch the wrapper doesn't even burn, just the filler... and i realize the cigar is too mist and i should have saved it for a day or 2... oh well, it was a nice cigar stillbiggrin had to relight it like 4 times, but you live you learn.

so i finished 3 beers (snakebites again, 1/2 guinness 1/2 cider) and was gonna have the last one later. took a nap, then my sis and bro in law and nieces and nephew came, hung out for a while, dropped off the other car they were borrowing from mom, then grandma came over and we went to claim jumper for dinner. had a bowl of chowder, then an I Declair. thing was as huge as i remeber and just as goodbiggrinlove my sis din't believe me when i said it was HUGE and got one herself, so instead of eating one whole one, we had 2 and shared them both around the table, and each finished about half of each. grandma was madmad cause they were huge and she thought they would cost a fortune, but only $12 each... not too bad. she was still mad thoughblush

went back to moms, hung out, went on the computer, talked to red on the phone, ended up discussing my moms proposed shelters thing, which we decided to nickname the Hippie Help Center, then played online more, then talked to karen a bit (she wants to be in a serious relationship with an old bf, but doesn't want to get hurt again, and i told her if the risk is getting hurt in a serious relationship or not being in one and not getting hurt she has to decide if it's worth it or not) then watched some lord of the rings, then came home. a pretty nice day.biggrin

Wear Sunscreen

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded.

But trust me, in 20 years youll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you cant grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.

Youre not as fat as you imagine.

Dont worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum.

The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing everyday that scares you

Sing

Dont be reckless with other peoples hearts, dont put up with people who are reckless with yours.

Floss

Dont waste your time on jealousy; sometimes youre ahead, sometimes youre behind. the race is long, and in the end, its only with yourself.

Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.

Stretch

Dont feel guilty if you dont know what you want to do with your life. the most interesting people I know didnt know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds know still dont.

Get plenty of calcium.

Be kind to your knees, youll miss them when theyre gone.

Maybe youll marry, maybe you wont, maybe youll have children, maybe you wont, maybe youll divorce at 40, maybe youll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary.

what ever you do, dont congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either. your choices are half chance, so are everybody elses.

Enjoy your body, use it every way you can. dont be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, its the greatest instrument youll ever own..

Dance

even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Read the directions, even if you dont follow them.

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents, you never know when theyll be gone for good.

Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on.

Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard;

live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.

Travel.

Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do youll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Dont expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.

Dont mess too much with your hair, or by the time its 40, it will look 85.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than its worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen...

Qualities of a man.....hhhhhhmmmmmm
The 10 Best Qualities to look for in a man..

1. Great men have their priorities in line. They know what is truly important in life, and live accordingly.


2. Great men are tender with those in need of tenderness. They are kind to the elderly, women, children, and those with disabilities.


3. Great men respect and honor women. They dont objectify, degrade, or demean them.


4. Great men participate in the community. They may spend time volunteering, working for a cause, or being involved with a charity.


5. Great men are honest, and have a sense of morality, integrity, and decency. They have an internal awareness of what is or is not appropriate, good, right, or decent.


6. Great men have a sense of purpose. They do not waste inordinate amounts of time in front of the TV or playing video games. They can balance fun and relaxation with work and productivity.


7. Great men are continually expanding their minds. They do not think they know it all and are open to new ideas and insights.


8. Great men have a healthy sense of self. They are confident and secure while maintaining a sense of humility.


9. Great men help and assist others. Whether in their place of employment, in their daily lives, or in the greater world at large, they have a sense of giving back.


10. Great men are in touch with their feelings, emotions, concerns, and even shortcomings. They dont feel a need for pretense or power. They can cry, have compassion, and acknowledge mistakes. They can love and be loved.


Note, a great man is not measured by the amount of money he has, the kind of car he drives, the size of his biceps, or outward appearance.


A great man reflects his greatness in his everyday life.
