Hello everyone.
I hope you are all in a good mood. I assume that you are since it’s Friday and that seems to be the only day all you little monkeys look forward to anymore. LOL!
Today has been a really interesting day for me emotionally to say the least.
I’ve been through a plethora of emotions today. (see how I used plethora?!) That’s what they call a “sesquipedalian” (I think) and that word right there (sesquipedalian) ironically enough, is also a sesquipedalian. (look it up, geez!)
Before we get into anything today’s theme music is brought to you by…
Copeland – Chin Up
(from their album “You Are My Sunshine” which is amazing!)
And
From Monument To Masses – “Deafening” – 4/27/07
(this song is the shiz-nit!)
So today I’d like to talk a little but about change and how it affects us all.
The most noticeable change in my life is my age and how I take care of myself accordingly.
I am 34 years old. Yep I know. I look a lot younger….thanks for saying so.
When I was 23, I could go out all night and drink and party and still get up at the butt crack of dawn for work.
If I try doing that at my age now ( and I have)…I’m a zombie at work!
Now health wise..this is never a good idea no matter what your age. Just because you can “deal” with it better at 23 doesn’t mean it won’t have some long-lasting effects on you as you get older. I’m not talking rocket science either. This is all pretty much common knowledge.
I think most of us just ignore it until it does affect us physically!
So, I decided to make some changes in my life and come up with what I’ve always kind of despised as a youth…
and that is a …(say it with me now)
A routine! Ouch.
Why did I despise them so much when I was younger? I guess it was because just like any other young punk I thought I was indestructible.
So now I set something in line.
I wake up and exercise, eat breakfast, take my vitamins, and then shower and get ready for work.
Eat my lunch at a certain time then take a walk.
Walk home from the train after work and then get my stuff ready for the next work day (cloths and my lunch.)
Do what needs to be done or have some fun that evening…then TRY and get to bed at a decent time.
Lately things have been going good for me.
I go to work. I exercise. I pay my bills. Make time for my responsibilities and for myself.
Things have been going pretty good as of late.
However, if you remember the “plethora of emotions” I was talking about…
Well, I never want to get too personal in my blogs because some things don’t need to be put out there for people who don’t need to know about them…right?! Right.
Today I woke up in the best of moods..I mean a really REALLY good mood.
But that didn’t last long or work out the way I had wished. I had an “altercation” with a co-worker that set my day straight into roller coaster mode…and…well…
Let’s just say I have been having a little baby mama drama and then some issues with certain member(s) of my family (whom I did talk with today and now feel like I have resolved those issues with them) but damn…my reactions was very crazy! I got extremely mad very quick and hurt as well.
So I woke up happy, then got annoyed, then got hurt, then angry, then calm, then embarrassed.
Human emotions are a crazy thing.
You may be asking yourself at this point…”well, …how does this have anything to do with “change” Mr. President?”
Good question and I’m glad you asked.
The way I deal or have dealt with things in the past have always been very standoff-ish. And I am guilty of pointing the finger a lot!
Today, I felt a change in me, as far as the way I dealt with things. My initial reaction was to go get my gun and regulate…
but after my temper tantrum I calmed down and tried to look at it from a different angle.
Instead of staying mad I tried to listen and explain things from my point of view instead of cramming my opinions down people’s throats.
In these last few months, within this week and amongst these past few days I have come to the crazy conclusion and realization that…
I am finally REALLY growing up.
It may seem a bit lame to you but not everyone has these changes at the same point in their lives.
And it would seem that my time has finally come..so to speak.
Anyways….
…Oh my God! That’s the coolest fucking story I’ve ever heard in my life! Can you tell it again, do you have time?
Speaking of change. I may start changing how I do this whole blog thing..maybe. I like the question of the day and the “I’M JUST SAYING” segment of my blogs but I don’t know…it gets to be a bit much at times.
I’m not making a show…I am writing a blog.
And I do not get paid or sponsored by any of the artists, websites, or people I feature. I feature them because it’s what matters to me… personally.
In the next few weeks (if anyone still cares) my blog my take on a new shape…but then again maybe it won’t be such a big change.
Today there will be no question of the day, or I’m just saying, or any random junk and stuff. However, there will be a featured website.
And I must admit that I have become such a whore to this particular site.
Books, DVD’s, and CD’s be my vice mateys! Arrrrrr!
