Dinner, Christmas shopping, and a Movie...
Yup, that pretty much summed up my day today..i finished my christmas shopping, saw tron legacy, and had a McRib for dinner......Walmart was super packed, took me ten minutes to find a parking space....I ran in, found what I needed, cheaper than kmart I might add, Its funny, I got one thing at kmart, a cd for mom, that walmart didnt have, and found the inception bluray, with cool holographic cover, cheaper at kmart than walmart, but on the other hand, I found the tron legacy soundtrack at walmart cheaper than kmart..go fig...I was in rush because I slept in too late today, woke up at the crack of noon ;) so I had to rush to get my shopping done before the movie started, and I hadnt had anything to eat all day, so I was starving by the time the movie let out...and I didnt know it was around 2 hours and 20 mins?!?!? poor dogs ate about an hour late..anyway, i was surprised mcdonalds still had the mcrib!! oh joy!! about the movie, I really liked it, great effects, kind of a flimsy story line..and a few holes noticeable to us diehard fans......Bruce Boxleitner ios looking great these days...too bad they didnt reverse age him so we could see trons face..but oh well, maybe in the next sequal, I saw a few things near the end that hinted at another sequal....I didnt see it in 3D only because my theater wasnt offering it in 3d, it was in 3d at the sister theater around 30 more miles away, this theater I went to was already around 35 miles from home...It was good to see jeff get back into his Flynn role so easily.....all in all a good movie..and now, tonight I'm going to watch inception, and quite possibly go to the circle K and get some nachos......until next time...

Interesting co-inky-dink...
I just noticed something interesting whilst I was purchasing a ticket for Tron: Legacy for this Saturday...The last move i saw was Avatar on December 19th 2009, now, Tron Legacy on December 18th 2010. which happens to be the date of a friend of mines Birthday! December 18th seems to be my once a year movie trip..hehe go figure..BTW I hope that friend of mine has a great Birthday! maybe dinner or lunch with his Dad, or a good friend, or both! do something to make your big 4-0 special, after all, you'll only turn 40 once!! Of course, once is enough for some people....hehe...I'll be turning 40 in February and ity doesnt bother me one bit..I'm of the mind set that, yes we are getting older, and no theres nothing anyone can do to stop it, or even slow it down...and al the surgeries or creams or whatever will change that....you can try to LOOK younger but your still old :P on a lighter note, Saturdy is also my "finish the xmas shopping" day...I'll go early so I can get done shopping, see the movie, then get my ass home so I can start ny Laundry etc..woo- hoo!!! Gee, what a life I DONT have...I had a nice breakfast get-together with the local Ham Radio club...the Rim Country Amateur Radio Club this morning, unfortunately, all the smoked almonds I ate last night and night before came back to haunt me BIG TIME! I was uncomfortable durng breakfast, and almost DID'NT make it to work...At least I got paid to suffer eh? heh... in case some of you dont know, almonds have tons of fibre in them....and I think the smoke coating might have effected me as well...alls well that ends well I guess...If all goes well, and I receive the rebate check from verizon Ive been waiting for, this week, I'll be ordering my ham radio this weekend...then finally get on the air..I enjoy listening over the internet, but I'd much rather broadcast.... until nex time...!

I'm Blind!!!
Well, not quite blind, but according to the eye doctor I saw yesterday..pretty damn close..of course, its been around 15 years since my last eye exam...never-the-less, she told me Ive got poor vision, but the new glasses will help, I'll have a hard time getting used to them she also told me...I decided to get transition lenses, at least I wont forget my sunglasses anymore =) Also, she dialated my eyes, so I was blurry for a couple hours after...I did manage to drive home, but Mom had to keep telling what speed I was at, etc. I did get some really dorky paper sunglasses however...very fashionable..check em out! That pretty much took up the whole day yesterday...Today however, I spent christmas shoppping with my Dad; we went to 5 stores in one day, and I even bought him lunch, for a change...A good time was had by all, and we're both worn out... I'm still waiting for a friend of mine in WV to email me...hopefully he will....we still need to talk...maybeeven Iron some tings out...he tells me his puter is down right now......I'll keep waiting. He has birthday coming up On december 18th, he'll be the big 4-0! I'll be the big 4-0 on the 19th of February, so I'm not teasing him or anything, maybe I'll send him a B-day card...I'll have to dig out his address...on the job front, the place I work is on the market now, and he actually has somebody interested in it, amazingly enough...in this economy, in this market! in this town?!?!?! obviously more money thsan brains..but nonetheless, Ive decided, if and when he DOES sell the place, I'm quitting, I have no interest in working with another new owner... Ive been working at and ruinning the place for nearly ten years and I'm sick to death of Office supplies....its time to move on...my employer wont be happy, but oh well. I dont know what I'll do, but I'll have the free time necessary to figure it out =) Who knows! maybe I'll be able to move back to Morgantown WV even sooner than I planned!! that would be friggen awesome! finally get the hell out of Arizona, I cant stand this state! we'll see......I may end up starting my own business first in order to save up the bread necessary for the move..THEN move....again, we'll see...If youve been reading my blog for awhile, you've probably noticed I've mentioned from time to time that "change is in the air", well, that feeling thats been get less and less subtle, have gotten even more noticeable lately. I think change is really coming very soon, and its about time I start taking embracing it and take a chance for once in my patheticically wimpy life!!! HOOO-RAH!!! until next time...

I've heard there's alot of problems with them. Sorry to hear about your pc problems, email me when you get up and running again....until next time...

A Perfect world..ya right...
Just to comment on the comment I received from an old friend....thanks for the youtube video..Huey Lewis has always been one of my favorite artists..tho i think my friend should listen to those lyrics as well. Just because someone doesnt find the same pleasure in torrents as you do, doesnt mean you should turn your back on them. and turning your back on that someone doesnt give that someone a right to get nasty and insulting because we dont see eye to eye...looks like we've both got alot of thinking to do....emailme if you ant to..maybe we can start over =) and I really dont mind hearing about your awesome torrential exploits and adventures....later dude...you know who you are =) until next time...

Black friday!!!
I finally did some black Friday shopping for the first time...Sort of...I went to the local verizon store and bought a Droid 2...very nice smartphone...I absolutely love it =) Ive got facebook on it, and of course this blog, google, twitter etc...I couldnt be happier...I spent the past weekend personalizing it..new wall paper, ringtone etc...25 days until christmas, sheesh! whered the year go?!?! on a serious note...I may have been too harsh on an old friendof mine a few weeks back...We disagbree on torrents...he absolutley loves them..cant get enough of them, and I dont care for them..and we had a heated debate about it, and he quit talking to me...then he blocked me on youtube..and it made me so mad I sent him a very harsh email...I may have gone too far, I was trying to get him riled up enough to hopefully get him talking to me again, if only to get an angry reply from him, but alas, it didnt work..I was a little too insulting I think...and if he still reads my blog, I apologize...maybe we can start over..maybe....maybe we can agree to disagree about torrents and move on...its Christmas season, a time for growing friendships and family relationships not destroy them....If he still has my email, maybe he'll message me...maybe... I really dont mind him gloating about all the cool torrents he gets...he can contnue to do so..who knows, maybe I'll get the torrent bug..who knows...until next time....

Almost Turkey day...
Alright alright alright! I hear you grumbling...its been too long since my last post, and I promised to make daily posts...funny how life gets in the way isnt it? its been several weeks...and alot has happened....first of all, I am no longer talking to an old..supposed friend, from back east...as I suspected he still hasnt grown up and still acts like a little sniveling boy just because we dont agree on torrents..he lives for torrents, sings their praises, and I dont find any thrill in piracy and stealing anymore..when we were young and stupid..fine, but not anymore, so he turned his back on me just because we had a little heated debate on the subject...childish...whatever....our friendship never really worked before..why did I think it would work now? you would think since is is in pretty bad health he wouldnt let something as insignificant as a disagreement on torrents get beteeen us..lord knows me might not have alot of time left he really shouldnt be pushing people away, dont ya think? he'll regret it...lets see..next Thursday is Thanksgiving, the day families have their yearly get-togethers to remind themselves why they stay away from each other the rest of the year...my family is no different..so far, my Mom has changed plans 5 or 6 times because everyone wants to have the meal at THEIR homes and nobody wants to go to the others persons home to have the meal...sigh....happens every year...My only hope is they go elsewhere and I get to be alone on thanksgiving day...only way I'll have any peace......I managed to get my half os the raking done before we got any kind of weather...its been freezing here for the last couple weeks..but its pretty nice now...until next time....

My Halloween tradition....
Today is Thursday, 4 days after Halloween, or Samhain, and I was finally able to pull off my complete halloween tradition... What Halloween tradition? I hear many of you asking, well, my Halloween tradition is as follows. Buy 3 bags of candy, mounds, butterfingers and reeses peanut butter cups, 2-3 bottles of coke classic, and 1 or 2 dominoes pizzas...and a stack of horror films...sometimes I watch whole series of films, last year it was all hellraisers, year before it was nightmare onelm streets, this year, it was "firsts" the first movie from multiple series, halloween, nightmare elm st, friday 13th hellraier, and the originsal nihgt of the living dead...I havent been able to pull off my full tradition in many years, but this year, I did...Mom and Dad went to phoenix to celebrate their granddaughtrers birthday on halloween day, which left me alone to party!! Anyway, my tradition goes as follows...... go to dominoes pizza and get a couple of large double cheese double pepperoni pies, eat as much of those as possible for lunch and dinner (and midnight snack/cold breakfast the next day1) all while watching horror films, then break out the candy at around 8 oclock, after I take the dogs out, then spend the rest of the evening into the wee hours watchng horro and eating candy...my once a year treat...I rarely eat candy or chocolate the est of the year...also 2 ofd the 3 2 liters of coke classic, one bottle with the pizzas, and one with the candy..as you can imagine, I couldnt sleep due to massive sugar rush =) such is life =) its rare that I can pull it off completely, but I'm glad I could this year..in case any of y'all are wondering, the closest dominoes is around 40 miles from here, which makes it a little harder to pull off =) the seasons are once again changing, the wheel of time turns and turns, the wheel of the year has turned once again, the leaves are brightly colored now, its bettng colder and colder...winter is almost here...everyone is saying we will have a mild winter this year...I'll wait and see...I joined netflix recently, If I havent mentioned it before. I had to return 3 bad star trek blurays until I finally got one that worked, barely, it froze up a few times. and after all that, the movie wasnt really that good...good effects etc....but story? kind of stupid...I watched Iron man last night, It was ok...you mean to tell me, those terrorist guys were so stupid they couldnt tell the differecne between a metal body suit and a milssile array?!?!? PUHLEASE...I hope the sequal is better...and of course Stan Lee had a cameo..playing hugh hefner ;) still a stud at his age =) what a guy =) btw, I'm on twitter now,or should I say, again... theonetruebeast if anyone is interested...I'm currently following stan Lee, hes a crazy old coot =) I'm following about 15 others, Robert englund, penn and teller etc. until next time....

I'm saving up to get a droid 2, after that? a ham radio =)...hoepfulyl I'll have ewverything by xmas...and I may be joining the local ham club as well...not much else to report...until next time...

Sunday afternoon....
It is, once again, Sunday afternoon..on 10/10/10 interesting date....not alot going on this weekend..besides the fact i dont have to work saturdays anymore, at least through the winter..I was going to start raking today, but its windy and would be pointless....I'll probably start closer to the end of October when the winds leave and before snow comes...I walked to the post office yesterday, I got to break in a pair of hiking boots I found in my closet..I dont remember when I bought them, I bought them from jcpenney, thats all I know..judging by all the duston the box, theyve been there for several years...unopened...untouched..i had to pull the tissue paper out of the toes...I cant believe i would do such a thing..and they are a really good brand, wolverine..and very comfortable....I guess thats the point of hiking boots, to be comfortable...so I'm going to wear them through the winter when i dont feel like wearing my main winter boots. At least Ive got other choies now =) I ordered my Subwoofer and universal remote yesterday...I'm finally going to complete my home..er..room theater..I even bought my first bluray..well, actually the second bluray I've purchased, Avatar was the first, but it was a dvd/bluray combo so I dont consider it my first blueray. I bought Wall Street, in celebration of the new Wall Street: money never sleeps in theaters now =) my Star Trek persona is a ferengi, and as we all know, ferengis are eternally greedy, so I figured I'd better study up on greed etc...urc-r50 is the remote I bought, Ive heard lots of good things about it, including a very positive revies from a good friend of mine, so I'm goign to try it out...I'm tired of shuffling throught 7 remotes all the time....i'll let you all know how it works...I'm going to finish laundry today, and then just take it easy the rest of the day...until next time...

Wowe..its been way too long siance ive written this blog...apologies...
Well Well, fall is upon us, the weather is getting milder...and Ive been neglecting this blog...its been probably a month since Ive typed anything..i am going to try to type everyday for now on....hopefully...lets see where do i begin?!?! hmm..first of all, Ive passed my technician class test so I am now a Licensed Ham radio operator...KF7LXD is my callsign...I have, however, applied for a vanity callsign...WN4GUS... a star trek reference...the ferengi leader is called the grand nagus...and speaking of star trek, I am now a card carrying member of starfleet as well..all this thanks to a good friend of mine, scott..he is into all of this as well, we found each other after 16+ years, so its all good... I finally got my bluray player hooked up and functional..after only 3 months of sitting int he cloet..hmmm...I didnt feel like running a network cable from one end of the house to the other to update the thing, so i made an update disc and did the firmware updates that way....I could then, watch Avatar in hd finally...=) i even joined netflix so I can rent all the blurays I can watch for like 10.99 a month..its a couple bucks a month extra for blurays..but oh well, its only money :P I am going to be ordering my subwoofer and killer universal remote this coming friday...finally..ive got my center channel speaker hooked up and it sounds amazing..I'll finally be able to complete my home theater...woo-hoo! I am no loner working weekends for the winter..which my employer does every year...so i was able to go to walmart yesterday morning...its nice not having to go after work for a change, I hagte getting home after 10 pm :( I boughtmy yearly halloween candy supply yesterday...butterfingers, mounds, and reeses peanut butter cups, 1 bag each...so i can carry on my yearly halloween tradition, go to dominoes and get a couple large, extra cheese and extra pepperoni pizzas and eat them for breakfat and lunch and dinner, then watch horroer movies and eat candy all night =) I love my little tradition...my dad just had his pacemaker replaced a couple weeks back..he got a much more advanced and powerful one this time..his old one, the battery started going dead after 6 plus years, so it was time to replace it...his heart isnt doing well, but this new device shoudl aid things a bit..he really needs to exercise more...mom and I wil make sure he does...not sure what winter or the holidays are going to hold for me...but I try to tske things a day at a time..no sence rushing time, theres precious little of it...I'm planning to walk to the post office today, and take some pics of the area as i go for a friend in WV, morgantown to be exact...its bright and sunny today, even tho the weather people said it would be pouring rain for 4 days straight...it did rain a bit yesterday tho...I think thats about it for now...oohh crap! it just clouded up...had to open me big mouth didnt I? sigh..oh well..if i gotta wal;k in the rain, I'll walk in the rain....until next time....

James J. Lee is correct....about many things...
James is right, the human herd has grown wwwaaayy to big..there needs to be a great culling, humans need to be held to a one baby per family law or something...too many humans using way more than the erath can keep up with..mass sterilization maybe...we sterilize animals..why not humans....and to those people that have like 10 15 20 kids?!?!?! you all need to be dragged out and shot....humans are so arrogant in their false belief they are above all else they dont see whats happening around them..like Agent smith in from the matrix said "humans are a virus" or something to that effect...there was a show on a long time ago that showed exactly how much waste one human being creates in its lifetime....if you could the mountain of crap we leave behind as we pass through life youd be physically ill..it was hurrendous...unfortunatley...theres not enough humans that feel th way I do so nothing will get done about it and humans will ultimately destroy the earth..which is going to happen in my lifetime is something isnt done about it quickly...the earth suffers, the animals of this planet are suffering greatly...wheres a new great massive plague when you need one?? give us time..its coming...not son enough, but its coming...at least James J Lee had the guts to speak out in public and actually TRY to do something about it...I'm tired of all these health channels glorifying births when all births do is add tons more garbage to this planet, kill off more species of animals needlessly and pollute the earth with another unneeded human....rest in peace brother..I hope there are more liek you out there...until next time...

Well, It feel like the seasons are starting to change...Its been extremely cool and windy here the last few days or so..and raining alot of them..I'm hoping fall is here..I'm sick of the heat...and not having air conditioning doesnt help things either...Ive had a pretty goot harvest from my garden so far..hopefully I'll get veggies for another month or so maybe (crosses fingers and toes) Its getting closer to test time...my ham radio test that is...only a couple more weeks...cant wait...and I cant wait to start shopping for a radio either...probably end up being an xmas present to myself judging by my finances..or lack there of...and speaking of lack there of..i'm only have one more payment to send to the infernal revenue service..then i'm caught up... at least until the next time they want money....freakin blood suckin vampires!!! hehe..maybe I should start a cayman islands account so I can hide me wealth from uncle sam, the greedy S.O.B. I wonder if they will let me start an account with 17 bucks...i'll have to give em a call ;) Or-La, my golden, got her stitches out yesterday..she seems to have healed nicely..she had a hysterectomy couple weeks ago....she a-ok now =) and speaking of A-OK, my sister had hip replacement surgery a couple weeks ago, she pulled through fine..now she has 2 fake hips....and tons of metal inher back... shes more machine than woman now...sis vader...;P until next time...

............
Once again, as usual..its Sunday..and once again, as usual, i'm finishing laundry, and typing this blog entry...gees my life is bloody boring...as usual :P lets see...I dont maker daily entries too often because my life isnt interesting enough, or exciting enough....lately I have been studying to take the technician class test to get my Ham radio license...i'll be taking the test on 9/11/2010..i think i may have mentioned this in an earlier blog..if i did forgive me...actually studying isnt really the word...memorizing the question pool would be a little more accurate......my thinking is..i'll memorize the questions to pass the test, then i'll start learning practical info when I can actually get hands on practical experience...alot of the questions are theoretical until you have the license to actually try what they ask...so there ya go...I was talking to a good buddy of mine last week or so...he is getting tires o the "Big City" hustle and bustle and he wants to move back to Overgaard where he lived when I met him... and I want to get out of this nowhere god forsaken town and get to civilization again...of course...he'll probably tire of small town life and i'll tire of big city hustle and bustle, and we'll end up right back where we started...notthat I have the wherewithall to leave this town mind you..but if i did....oh the monotonous possibilities... until next time...

Sunday..once again
Weird, sundays just keep coming, over and over again..strange....oh well..on with my semi annual post ;) I'm just finishing my last cup of coffee and getting ready to finish the laundry...my typical Sunday tradition, but first, breakfast..I dont know what...maybe bagel and cream cheese..maybe cereal...they had the good cereal on sale at our local store for a change, you know, trix, lucky charms etc...i'll make the big decision as soon as i get to the kitchen, after i'm done here...other than that..same old boring stuff day after day..the monotony is getting to me...i'll surely go mad, yet theres nothing that can be done..short of winning the lottery and getting the hell out of this putrid state...as far away from illegal immigrants and excessive heat as possible..maybe i'll actually start playing the lottery regularly next week......maybe i'll leave the country if i get enough moola...somewhere where faggots and illegals dont get free reign like they do in this messed up country...who knows whwre that is tho... too many bleeding hearts on the planet..no place is safe..i'll have to find somewhere..maybe..i'll buy my own private island!!! maybe Richard Branson can float me a large grant so i can realizwe this dream...i'll see if i can find his email address...hehe boy am i dreaming..this planet is screwed beyond return no matter where i go or what i do...thats whats so depressing, no matter where i go...its the same everywhere..oh well...i'm depressing the crap out of myself so i'd better end this now..or i may shoot myself over my bowl of trix...pretty grotesque picture....me face down ina large bowl of trix with the back of my head gone and blood and brain matter everywhere...gross...with a note pinned to my shirt that reads: Its the rabbits fault! ROFLMAO...until next time...

Success!!! now...Saturday...
Last night I successfully broke in my new frydaddy...I made beer batter shrimp, fried zucchini in same beer batter, and french fries...Mom and Dad loved it...tho, I did make a couple rookie mistakes...one of which was I think I used a tad too much oil...it took longer than i thought to get done...I'll have to readjust next time..and i think i went overboard a bit on the breading batter...I couldve used a bit less bater on the shrimp..maybe it was just too thick, i dunno...oh well, live and learn I guess =) well, on to saturday, hopefully I can get all the laundry etc done today, so I can go on a bike ride tomorrow...or maybe just walk to the post office, havent done either in a while...actually, I have to repair the brake cable on my bike..so maybe a walk is in order...and a ride next week..who knows...we'll see =) until next time =)

Well Well, another blast from the past...
Ive been contacted my another old friend from Morgantown recently, havent heard anyhting for over 20 years, nice to see he is doing ok...I havent really thought about Morgantown much over the years, but now Ive got allkinds of memories coming back...like when this friend and I would try to go for a "mega midnight run" and I always got caught by my parents...bummer...we were trying to go to dominoes over by MHS high school...I dont remember if I was ever able to escape...oh well, to be young again..dominoes is about 42 miles from here..sucks..but I make the trip occasionally... I also remember always trading..er..pirating commodore 64 software, and eventually amiga software...good old days...I hope he and I can stay in touch now... until next time...

Just another freakin day...
Monday is gone, and if Wednesday gets here, I'll deal with it, but until then, theres Tuesday, and I have no idea what Tuesday has in store for me...I'm at work once agin, as usual, hence the title of this post... ive got all kinds of zucchini and yellow squash to harvest tonight, my New Mexico chilis are finally coming in, as well as my jalapenos and tomatos...I bought a frydaddy yesterday from Amazon.com, best price I could find anywhere...hopefully I'll be able to make use of all the veggies I'll have, zucchini fry anyone? and I'll be able to make hash browns, and french fries the right way, instead of mushy oven baked, It'll be used quite a bit...and I'm sure moms going to be thrilled, sarcastically speaking, she hates it when I spend money, but it was like 17.99 and free shipping, well, free shipping for 25.00 or more, so I bought a skimming spider to go with it, and that'll get used quite a bit and not just for the frier...folks will be pissed, but they'll get over it... My dog Orla, or the actual gaelic spelling...Orfhlaith, went to the vet for the first time, seems she is having problems with her female parts, so she is scheduled to be spayed, or hysterectomy in human terms in early August...I was hoping to breed her at some point, but shes too old now..so..its in her best interest...she got all her shots etc..and shes doing ok otherwise...now Ive got to get Sombra into the vet..shes elderly, but she still needs her shots, and she has lumps all over, I dont really want to know what they are, because shes way to old for any kind of aggressive treatment, but I try to keep her as healthy as I can, she take a daily regimen of aspirin and joint therapy pills to keep her going...so far so good... btw... orla is gaelic for golden lady, shes a golden retreiver, and sombra is spanish for shadow..shes a black lab....just in case you were wondering =) until next time...

Fourth of July weekend....ho hum...
Today is Saturday July 3rd and I just got back from our annual 4th of July parade..and a pathetic parade it was too....no water was allowed anywhere on the parade route, hell, people couldnt even SELL water along the route much less squirt it... the parade was a fraction of the length it usually is...it l;asted about 30 or 40 minutes or so, last year it was alot longer...I heard some parade entrants pulled out because of the "no water" edict our chamber of commerce put in place this year, or should I say "safety forces" as the chamber calls it, we all know there is no "safety forces" the chamber board makes these decisions, I know, I was a board member a few years ago...people decided since they couldnt throw water they would throw candy, and several people got nailed by flying candy near where I was standing. someone decided to rent bleachers and sell spots for 2 bucks, needles to say they didnt sell a single spot from what I heard... also, the chamber of commerce, in its infinite..er...wisdom? decided to charge 10 dollars for parking at the park and school this year, its usually 5 bucks, still too much I think, needless to say it was pretty dead at the park yesterday, and will probably pretty dead at the park and school today and tomorrow...there are several petitions going around the parade route to get the chamber to reinstate the water in the parade or get boycotted next year..from what I heard and saw...The reason water is banned from the parade...if anyone is interested...is because the people with the classic convertible cars were whining about getting wet...those poor babies :( they knew there was water in our parade, hell, even the fire department used to soak people wuith their water trucks in past yearsm, yet they signed up anyway?? if you dont want to get wet, dont enter the parade, and subsequently ruin it for everyone... I am not going to the fireworks this year as a personla protest against the chamber, that and the fact I refuase to pay five bucks to park my car much less 10 bucks...also, they raised the price for VIP parking area again as well, they stil managed to sell out tho..amazingly enough...its a small dirt parking area overlooking the spot where the fireworks are shot...and as for the park...I wouldnt pay money to park just so I can get ripped off by over priced vendors and food booths...its terrible the economy is as it is..[people are harder up for money than ever before, everyone if making less money than before and the h/o chamber of commerce decides to gouge people trying to get away from the troubles in the world for one weekend?? pathetic..I'm glad I resigned from the chamber... I am going to spend the rest of my weekend, working, and doing laundry and playing with the dogs adn tending my garden etc...at least that wont cost anything ;) ...until next time...

Friday!!!
Its finally friday, I never thought this day would evr come..its been a long week for some reason...after my long winded post yesterday I'm not sure I have anything left to say...lets see...I didnt paint yesterday, I decided it was too hot...dad did most of it..I'm going to paint a closet today...my puny contribution...Its very overcast right now which means its a bit cooler for a change...thankfully...After searching ebay for days, Ive decided I'm going to buy a brand new subwoofer, so its goting to take awhile longer to save up for it...Christmas anyone? until next time...
(I'm still accepting donationsd by the way ;) )

This week has flown by....
I apologize for not posting regularly this week, I just realized it was thursday while I was wheeling the trash out to the street at 6 this morning...lets see...right now, Mom and dad are painting and fixing up moms home office, she decided to paintit "sea foam" it looks more like an off mint green to me. I got to dissassemble her computer and everything so they can move the desk today, I'm probably going to be painting the last wall when I get home tonight...oh joy...nah, I enjoy painting when they let me... I decided to take the plunge and I found screaming deals on a center channel speaker and a subwoofer on ebay...I got the center channel speaker ok, its an older kenwood, very heavy and solidly built, I got it for like 30 bucks..great deal, I also got the subwoofer yesterday...of course, only after it shipped did i find out I cant use it...I need a powered subwoofer with rca style connectors, not like I got, with spring loaded wire clamps...I am going to keep it for now cause I may be able to use it on my older receiver if I ever get the chance to need it...also, when I opened the box I found a white subwoofer insteadof a black one as he had listed...I'll look over the listing again, but I'm pretty sure he didnt mention it was actually white...No biggie tho... but I still need a subwoofer, I found one on newegg or a good price, and I found the needed cables on ebay for a good price, so I am goingto save up and get those in the near future, in the meantime, hopefully this weekend I'll at least got the center speaker and bluray player player setup, and I'll ad the subwoofer at a letr date...I also need a new remote for my receiver because the one I have half the buttons suddenly stopped working, I aimed it at my video camera and got no signal from around half of the buttons. In case you all are wondering, if you aim any remote at a video camera, you can see the transmitter in the end o the remote flashing...the naked eye cant see it but a video camera can... If any of you have a video camera and need to check a remote, now you know how...no flashing means dead button...or dead batteries :P I'm itching to play mario galaxy 2 again, I really havent had time... but I'm goign to make time...perhaps test my new center speaker by playing...who knows.... ALSO..speaking of my bluray player, I foud out...too late as always, that my TV cant do HD...I was under the mistaken impression it could do 720p through the component video inputs...only to open the user manual and find out its not true....So now I eed to save up fro a new TV...Ive got my eye on a 37" led lcd vizio that goes for around 600 bucks...by the time I have enough money together It'll no doubt be cheaper...(If anyone of you would like to donate to the "buy Rocky a new big lcd led tv charity fund" email me and i'll give you my email address and paypal account info :P ) Also #2, Larry, my best friend told me about this new universal remote he got from newegg, it goes for around 80 bucks, I think it would be a good investment, seeing as it never gets obsolete, you can hook it to a USB port and upgrade the firmware and download the latest code lists..something else to save up for... the Rocky tv charity fund is also taking donations for the new remote charity fund...;) ALSO #3...I come up for the "new every 2" program through verizon, I'm hoping to get the newest droid at a screaming price...sheesh...Ive got a lot of stuff to save up for...Ah Hell...jus send me all your money and we'll work ou the charuity details later =) until next time...

Greetings all, its once again fathers day, and once agian I plan to make it the best day possible for me Dad, seeing as his health is such that he may not be with us much longer, I try to make everyday enjoyable..tho I often fail at it..oh well. We are going to BBQ, and moms going to make his favorite lunch..Chorizo and eggs, we got him some nice gifts he'll enjoy, hopefully, and I'm going to try to finish my chores early so we can have some together time...until next time...

Thursday? whered the week go?
WOW..once again I didnt post daily o this blog, so I'll try to make up for that...I finally got a subwoofer and center channel speaker for my home theatre...they are both on their way as I type, I won them both on ebay...they are older kenwood speakers, but I have an older kenwood receiver so it works out well, the speakers were bundled with my receiver when it was new so I know they will work fine... I went on a cleaning frenzy in my room last night..got a lot cleaned up and dusted etc...in anticipation to my speakers arriving then I can get the blueray hooked up and all the speakers..assuming I can find a place for the subwoofer, Its freakin huge... I sold another jewelry piece yesterday, a turquoise nugget ona chain..I shipped it this morning...woo hoo!! I'm on a roll =) my next project is to finish organizing the closet, It looks like its half empty now seeing as i got rid of so much crap...I'll probably work on that tonight...until next time...
Sunday, June 13, 2010
Lovely Sunday
Yes, tis sunday once again...or more accurately...Sunday evening...and I actually got something accomplished today...yay! I got got done with the first stage of closet cleaning today....I got rid of a munc of crap and am ready for stage 2, rearranging and hopefully making alot more room...I rthink I'm finally going to do some serious rennovsating and rearrainging and downsizing...Ive got so much crap its unbelievable...So I think I'mon a roll...also..about my new blueray player...my TV is starting to go out..the component video inputs are no longer working and the screen is generally slightly fuzzy all of a sudden..its barely noticeable, but its slightly fuzzy and seems to be getting fuzzier every time I turn the thing on...sigh...now Ive got to save up for a new TV. I'm going to get an HD LCD of course..Just not sure which brand...whichever one is cheapest ;) My folks have a vizio that I really like...its only 60 htz tho, I think since I'm going to have HD, directv as well as blue ray I should get 120htz at least, they have 240 but those are out of my price range... and if all goes well, I'm goig to upgrade our(my and my folks) directv to HD finally so they can take advantage of their hdtv finally =) I probably wont have a new TV at that time..but it wont be long after...I'm guessing Christmas...It'll bea nice christmas present for myself =) until next time...
Saturday, June 12, 2010
oh well...
Here I am again..at work on a Saturday...oh well, so be it...nothing to exciting to report...I actually got up early enough this morning to get a shower and have coffee and english muffins...I rarely get up earlier than I nned to...at least I got to see my elderly Neighbor cleaning the ditch by my rear gate...why he felt he had to do that is beyond me....maybe because his ditch is emmaculate and he didnt like seeing the normal plant growth in my ditch..I dunno.... until next time...
Friday, June 11, 2010
Its friday woo-hoo!!...yeah right...:\
Well well, friday once again, where does the week go....its been an unusually long week for me this week, what with waiting for my new Bluewray player to arrive, which it did yesterday afternoon, I dont have it hooked up yet, maybe this weekend..we'll see. I finally found a center chane; speaker for my system, its an older Kenwood, with 4 inch woofers and a good sized tweeter...good enough for the small room its going to be in, they used to bundle the receiver I have with the speaker I just bought off of ebay so I know itll work well...I'm cureently looking for a subwoofer on ebay...they are not much cheaper than new ones so I may just buy a new one...I dunno yet...I actually got to got for a bike ride last Saturday....It felt really good to be on the open road again, even tho it was in my own neighborhood..I'll go lot farther as the summer progreses...I talked to my buddy Larry yesterday and wished him a happy 46th birthday..he just got a new black lab puppy so he has his hands full now....until next time...

Once again....Monday
Graphics for Monday Comments
Yep, Its once again...MONDAY!! OH JOY.... I managed to wash the dogs this weekend and do laundry..pretty much what I always do on the weekends...as you can tell...I have no life... sigh....I am excited, however, that my new bleray player will be here thursday...my old cheaep-o dvd player finally died so I decided an upgrade was in order....I got a screaming deal on a pioneer blueray, practically half price!! so I cant complain. I have one blueray disc right now....Avatar...and I have decided that from now on, when I buy a movie..it will be a blueray disc instead of a DVD..f course theres some older movies and TV shows not available on blueray yet....but 99 percent of new movies I acquire will be bluerays...other than that... I finally received Maruio Galaxy 2, I've almost completed Mario Galaxy 1, I'm at Bowsers final reactor so I decided to take a break and start Mario Galaxy 2 and then work on beatig mario 1 later....because from what I understand, the game doesnt just end when Bowser is defeated, you can still go back and collect whatever powerstars you missed before..so Its a pretty anticlimactic ending from what I understand...also, I need to get through Zelda: twilight princess on WII before the new Zelda comes out later this year or early next year...I beat Twilight princess on Gamecube, but not WII yet....so I have my work cut out for me.....oh well...until next time...

Tuesday?? what happened to Monday??
Gee..I missed my Monday update again..sheesh...reason being is my employer wasnt supposed to be here monday, but he was, and we were just busy enough to keep me away form the puter all day...I was feeling like crap yesterday anyway so I wasnt in the mood for typing, just looking forward to going home and collapsing..which I did...and of course I didnt get a wink of sleep last night, it was a combination of my old dog having a bad night, which she has from time to time...she cant get comfortable and decides she wants to go outsideseveral times overnight, and I couldnt get comfortable to sacve my life...I have night like that from time to time..even tho I have a really good mattress, sometimes I just cant find a comfortable position..and couple that with the fact I was either suffering a really bad cold, or my allergies are terminal, I was dieing either way...of course, weve had hurricane force winds the last few days again so all the dust and crud in the air isnt helping things any...on an up note..my employer is gone for the day so I can sit here and watch the town blow away...until next time....
Sunday, May 9, 2010

I'm putting in zucchini(I have to go get zuch plants this Saturday after work, and tomatoes, jalapenos, New Mexico chiles, and whatever else I find when I go plant shopping Saturday afternoon...My annoying neighbors behind me are back up for the summer...the old lady hates dogs and likes yelling over th back fence at us and them....like it does any good...my dogs do not break any annoyance laws so theres nothng she can do about it..and I keep an eye on the yard for any foreign matter, like poisoned laced meat or anything...cant be to careful...the last 3 or so years have been quiet, she hasnt stuck her nose over the fence for a long time and I dont intend to give her any reason to..I just hope my parents do the same when i'm at work.....until next time...

today is sunday, Good news, mom wasnt admitted to the hospital, she apparently pulled muscles and bruised things only, they gave her a couple shots and a prescription, and sent her home, shes doing alot better today. Yesterday, saturday, I had to go to the pharmacy in the next town over to get mom her prescription in the morning, I didint mind a bit, I enjoy road trips and i got to hit taco bell for lunch =) rest of the day??/ ummm....LAUNDRY!!! as usual, today?? taking it easy, after finishing laundry...just think how much free time I'd have if I became a full time nudist?? hmmm.....I dont think the neighbors would be too thrilled ;) until next time...

a sad post...
Yes, its Friday once again, I'm not sure what the weekend is going to hold, but I'm hoping for the best...It is with heavy heart I announce, I lost my last cat, Yakko, yesterday, his advanced age finally caught up with him, he was 20....quite old for a cat, we had to put him down...I was very upset most of the day yesterday. I lost my other, older cat, only 3 short weeks ago, Maxx, he passed in his sleep, he was 21...and then, mom took a really bad fall yesterday in the front yard and shes on her way tothe hospital as I type...she thought she'd be ok today, but shes still hurting badly so dads taking her to see what can be done...I dont think she broke anything, I hope, but she probably pulled muscles and maybe bruised something....until next time....

Tuesday....ugh...
Well, its tuesday once again, only 3 days until Friday...gee, I sound so excited dont I?? well, I've ben a little depressed lately, it looks like its going to be the same old, summer as always, working 6 days a week, for LESS than minimum wage, at a place Ive grown to loathe, in a town Ive grown to loathe, yet, theres still the faintest sense of change, its in the air, its tingling deep in the back of my brain, and I cant seem to figure out why its there... I did do something pretty enjoyable this weekend i forgot to mention...I washed my golf clubs in the kitchen sink while watchng the masters, mom would of killed me had she seen...then I went to the driving range and had to dodge the the sprinklers, and wind, the sprinkler in the center of the range rotated slowly so every few minutes j had to back up or get soaked, of course the wind was blowing pretty good so i got soaked no matter what i did =) then the week started and my depression started again. I'm not suicidal per se, I'm not going to off myself at any moment, but i think about it alot...only think, I would never actually go through with it.....
Monday, April 12, 2010
wheres the weekend?!?!?!
I'm writing this a bit later than usual, so bear with me,I had an alright weekend for a change, went to the driving range for the first time this season, and did terrible, been over a year, what did I expect? got the rest of my garden supplies, and watched The Masters, way to go Phil M, you really deserved this victory...well thats about it...til next time...
Friday, April 9, 2010

When the boss is away, the employee will play...
well well, my employer is gone for the rest of the day which means!!!....I get to sit here bored to death alone for a change....Whooppiee!!! I havent been alone here in many weeks, maybe even a month...its nice to be able to shut off the radio for a change and surf the net to my hearts content in between customers..which can be several hours apart...actually, Its the time of year when i start dusting off my golf clubs, start shopping around for new golf balls to replace all the ones i lost last year ): and maybe even add a new club to my arsenal finally. I'm considering a hybrid just to see what they are like, since Ive never even held one yet..maybe i can find one on ebay cheap...hmmm... also, I got the Ace Hardware add last night and they have the garden weasel on sale, as well as the rubber garden edging Ive been looking for to keep the water in my garden and not running across the yard. Also they have the bags of sterilized manure for .99 cents a bag for 1 cubic foot, can you believe that?!?! and i have a couple good coupons to use as well...Its looking to be a great summer, even though I may have to work Saturdays through the summer once again, I'm going to make the best of it anyway, round of golf one sunday, bike ride another sunday, walk to post office another sunday, laundry at 2 am...hehe whatever it takes....til next time...

3 days til Friday!!!
Its extremely loud here today, they are finally putting up the wall to devide the store in half so the gym next door can have the back room for whatever....We have nail guns and saws and hammering going on right behind me, its a little hard to concentrate, but I'll get over it....now, the guy is getting a hilti gun ready so he can attach the bottom of the wall to the concrete floor... I think I'll stand outside whilst he uses it...just in case some of you dont know what a hilti gun is, its a special nail gun that uses a chemical powder charge to drive nails or whatever it drives into concrete, its basically a .38 pistol that shoots concrete nails or whatever, it also shoots .38 blanks or something equal to. well, its lunch o'clock once again....until next time...
Monday, April 5, 2010
Monday Monday!!!
Thats right, once again, the work week begins, only 4 days until Friday!! I had an alright weekend. Mom made a great easter dinner including a huge ham, homemade crescents, spaghetti squash, and yams. Mom and Dad decided to color eggs Saturday night, and dont even get me started on the leftovers...can you say ham sandwiches and deviled eggs for a month?!?!?! Yummy!! Also, I attempted my first outing at geocaching, I didnt find anything, but I think i know where it is now, after looking at the hnts and user comments, its not necessarily on or in the hint item....I just didnt look around enough, next time tho....the cursed treasure will be mine!! Huzzah!!! I even managed to get both dogs bathed last night, unfortunately after such a great and big meal we all fell asleep and the dogs ended up eating an hour late...sorry puppies :(
all in all a good weekend. Of course, i just find out I'll probably be working saturdays all summer again....GRUMBLE.... I have GOT to get ot of this place.....job market stinks around here, but Ive got to do something......I'm sick and tired of nto being able to enjoy my summer....maybe I'll just quit and start my own business......Considering....... until next time....
Sunday, April 4, 2010
Happy easter!!!
Tis easter sunday today, the Mountaineers lost to Duke last night as you all know, I'm bummed but they made a great run... Mom has a ham in the oven right now, the whole house smells of ham, and sweet potatoes and whatever else she is cooking up. I went geocaching dfor the first time today, I didnt find the cache I was looking for, I guess I'm not educated with my gps enough, it was the first time my gps has been out of the house so maybe next time...I need to read the manual which I just downloaded, and maybe I'll try again next week some time... although, I think I did find where it was supposed to be, unless I'm blind it wasnt there...maybe the muggles took it....or as i said before...I'M BLIND. Theres always next time. Its extremely windy today so i didnt spend alot of time out there looking, and I drove around in circles so many times I didnt want to attract police attention...until next time...
Saturday, April 3, 2010
Saturday evening...finally
well, its official, the Mountaineers lost badly to duke this evening, they have nothing to feel bad about, they played their hearts out, so I'm still proud of them......I managed to go to walmart and get my monthly shopping done today, it was a georgeous day for an outing, I even cleanedx up my garden and bought manure in preparation for planting day!!! our local nursery will have all their plants in 2 or 3 weeks, so I have time to get the soil ready etc...and, if I'm lucky, I am going geocaching tomorrow!!! YAY!! and wash the dogs tomorrow!! Double YAY!!! hehe. It loks like its going to be another georgeous day tomorrow so heres to hoping......until next time...

My old dog isnt doing to well as of late, I think her old age is finally catchng up to her...I'm worried about her and I'm stuck here for another 3 hours..sigh....mortality sucks, and is inevitable....I am going to try to do a little geocaching this weekend, but I wont hold my breath...we'll see... I have been reading buddhist teachings lately and have been trying to have a positive attitude, but I've been in a bad mood this week for some reason. It seems liek whenever i get in a good mood, something always goes wrong...I'll try again I guess. I hope some much needed changes happen this summer, because, I dont think I can handle the monotony, tedium and boredom much longer... til next time...
Tuesday, March 30, 2010

Not a real exciting Sunday, as usual...I finished my laundry, sat in the back yard for a bit seeing as it as it was such a georgeous day. If i had money I would have gone somewhere :P I finally got my gps maps and software and firmware updated Sunday evening, and i even grabbed some coordinates from geocaching.com for local caches...I cant wait to find my first geocache, perhaps this week sometime, or maybe Saturday, depending on whats happening. I got to tal to a good friend of mine in texas Sunday afternoon. A family of absolutle pigs destroyed his rental property, so he has been busy trying to repair all the damage and hopefully sell the place befpre too long, I wish him the best of luck, and I wish I was there to help him. I wish I was anywhere but here, this town and this state are slowly driving me insane....oh well......until next time...

Its friday once again, and I am SOOO looking forward to this weekend!!! my foot still hurts, but is feeling better, I need the next two days off to rest, been on ym feet constantly all week due to downsizing our store and repositioning all the shelves etc. I am hoping to get started on my garden this weekend, re-organizing my bedroom a bit...too much crap too little space...oh well, and I am also looking forward to getting started on more leather, and jewelry projects finally. I have been trying to sell handmade basic jewelry on etsy, under thebeastofold and occasionally ebay, under same name, have'nt sold anything yet, but I'm still positive. I recently bought some much needed leather partd and supplies so I am eager to get started again, I am going to make some different shaped key fobs and maybe a few leather bracelets etc and see how that goes, if I sell those i can afford to buy the leather I need to start making messenger bags and the like, I'm also going to start makeing basic medicine bags that go around the neck, hopefully thoe will do well online as well. I am also looking forward to doing some geocaching for the first time, I dug my gps's out of the black hole of overgaard...AKA my closet and i think i need to update the maps in one, and re-learn how to use the other one....its going to be a fun summer here for a change and i hope my foot and health wil be able to handle it...I'll make it fun if it kill sme ;) on a lighter note.....WVU Mountaineers men won again last night!!! woo-hoo...I'd love to see them go all the way...heres to hopeing (crosses fingers) well, its finally lunch time here and i'm running out of stuff to say so.....until next time....

Health care reform....
Well... they managed to pass it...is it a good thing? is it a bad thing? can they fix all thats screwed up in the bill to the satisfaction of the masses?? will all the state threatened lawsuits keep things up in the air for the foreseeable future?? do i really need to worry either way?!?! I dont know yet, I have yet to wrap my head around it......we'll see what the future holds... the thing I wonder about is if you cant, for whatever reason afford health care in the forst place, and they fine you for not having it...how do they expect you to pay the fines??? what are they going to do with you then??? I guess time will tell......Ive got a headache now, and the dogs are bugging me for cookies...so g'nite all.....til next time...

My Mountaineers won!!! woo-hoo!!!! and i'm waiting for the health care reform vote....sigh,...actually, not really waiting, dont really care actually......nice quiet Sunday fro a change.....going out to play with the dogs before dinner...cheers...

I had to open my BIG mouth...
in my last post, i mentioned something about breaking the monotony?!?! well, i got my wish, we've decided to give up half of our home and office supply store to the gym next door. They are taking the back half to expand their yoga rooms etc into, and we are getting rid of most of the sonsignment stuff in here, including the big furniture and going back to mosly office supplies. Its been a frenzy of reorganization and rearranging today....sigh....my aforementioned sprained ankle is freakin killing me... I think this is going to be a 2 Guinness night....ask and ye shall receive i guess ;) Until next time
