It's Friday night and I'm a little under the weather so of course that means that I can't get any sleep so...I figured I'd post here since the last posting I did was back in oh February. I've taken a step back and took a closer look at my life. And really figure out what I want. Yeah some of it's still the same(a girlfriend duh) but other things have become important to me. I am setting money aside now each and every payday so that I can get a nice size downpayment on a house. Work's going pretty well my boss has been away for about 2 months now so I've been pretty busy. She's suppose to come back on Tuesday but I've heard that before. Karate going really well. Since I started over completely I have moved up 3 ranks and I took first place in the invitational tournament. And I've really been learning a lot from the "Fight Nights" and Mister Todd to improve my sparing skills. Football season's here again and I want to make it to a game this year. Maybe take in a Steelers game with my brother. Speaking of games a group of us are going to see the Revolution's game next Sat. The Ren Faire season has started again so I'll be making the trip up there here and there. Oh and is it me or has the colder weather lately made anyone else think of the Halloween season? Jason's Woods, Field of Screams, and The Bates Motel so many choices. And just remember the movie comes out next Friday I'm going to see it with Liz. Well that's all for now so until next time.

Hey I figured that I'd update my page just a little bit and tell what's been going on with me.
Let's see I started doing Karate again it'd been a long time since I last stepped on those mats. So far it's been hard but I'm really enjoying it. I ordered my fighting gear and should have it by Wensday. It is a little late though since I've already broken my toe and been kicked below the belt, but I'm still standing (Ha, ha, ha, ha! Aw, Lou...,come on man, we really like this place.)
In case you didn't know I left Wolfgangs' back in Sept and started working at the transit authority as customer service. After beeing there for about 3 weeks I'm asked if I'd like to try a new position scheduling. So now I get to schedule about 900 trips a day for the ederly, people with medical needs, and those select jerks who don't need it but know how to work the system :( But I do like my job. Right now I'm working on the scripting for our customer service reps. And I'm also working with our software vendor to completely overhaul our fixed route mapping and paddle system.
I'm looking for a "new to me" car once I get my tax return. My little Lebaron is losing MPG fast, it needs a new front brake pad, and with summer coming it'd be nice to have a car with air conditioning again.
I'm playing AC again a little bit here and there. So yes Darktide I'm back fear me and my clan.
I spent the day at the inner harbor with my son and some of my friends. It was a blast we went to the aquarium, on a submarine and some other ships, into a light house and up to the top of Baltimore's World Trade Tower. Andrew and I ate at Johnny Rockets and did some window shopping on the mall.
I've been running into old faces all over the place I've seen Miss Michelle, Jennnnn, Tiffany, Jeanna, Kimmy, Cathy M and even Maria(never thought I'd see her again).
Well I survived yet another year . Even though 2006 started out pretty harsh for me it did end on a few up notes. I'm not really into the whole resolution "thing" but I am going to try and keep in touch with people better than I have.
Ok so here are some details on my current situation with jobs. I'm going to be starting a customer service job with RabbitTransit on Monday the 18th. I will finally be getting benifits after my 90 days. Which will be up right in time to get paid for Christmas and New Years. I'll be working Mon - Fri first shift with some overtime here and there. So very cool.
And now for the Freak Show called Wolfgang's So I gave my notice on Fri and they were pricks about it. I lose all my built up sick time and I don't get paid for Labor day now. But I would have if I would have waited until next Monday and just called in to quit. WTF!?!? Yep. When I told my coworkers there were mixed reactions. Some congratulations a few people were mad at me and others were really upset about it. FF to today just chugging along putting in my last few days and BOOM the machine operator (whose asst I am) walked out. A few mins later I'm told that I'm being .........PROMOTED from Asst machine op to Machine op 1 WTF!!!!????? I reminded her that I had quit and she didn't care. Why would you promote someone who is quitting? I have no clue. If they're trying to get me to stay it's not going to work. As the guy from Sterling said "Welcome to the Freak Show............freak"
I just wanted to letr everyone know that I'm back at wolfgangs tommorow morning. So my social life is going back to absolute zero but just really close. I should be sleeping but it's kinda hard when I have been staying up really late. Well wish me luck and maybe I can see some people on the sundays I have off.

Well the Fling is over everyone's safe and sound at home. And I think I'm almost all the way dried out ;) I had a great time despite the rain. The Baby Shower for Michael and Dolores's bay was a big hit (even though I left their gift in the car opps). I wnet over to the Feis to see Trish but I couldn't find her so I took some time to watch some of the dancers they all look like little dolls my neice plays with come to life hehe. The Terrors were great as usual and we evren got Ian and Megs into the group photo. Matt entered the haggas eating contest. He got a larger plate than everyone else or he may have had a chance to win (he came in a very close 4th) Andrew tried haggas, did he like it you may ask. NO WAY JOSE' he was polite and told the guy it wasn't bad but then when we walked away he said it was horrible hehe. Andrew got some raffle tickets for the shoulder dragons, but we left before the drawing. So Matt was kind enough to see if Andrew got anything; and he did he got a cool looking blue one LOOKEY HERE Well it's almost 1 so I have to get going to the gym talk to everyone soon.

I'm laying on my bed with ice packs on both my legs. I pushed way too hard the last few days. Andrew starts basic swim classes on tues. We've been doing a movie night on mondays been working out pretty well. I've seen a fair share of movies lately here's a semi rundown:
Posiden- sucked scary Movie 4- ok Bloodrayne- argh Fight Club- loved it Donnie Darko - great movie X3- ;) Stick it- thoght I'd hate it but it was pretty good
I have to go to some work thing tommorow not looking forward to it. Next Sat is the "faire" near Shrewsbury at the markets I'll be there since it's so close to home.
Here's a question for you what symbol would best represent you? What would you say represents me? ie my friend Kip would get a bloody machett(sp?) because of his love for halloween,horror movies and scaring the crap out of people.
Rules: A. Pick 20 of your favorite movies. B. Then pick one of your favorite quote/s from each movie. C. Post the quotes in your journal. D. Have those on your friends list to guess what the movie is. E. Either strike out the quote once it has been correctly identified, or place the guesser's user name directly after the quote.
1. As you wish Princess Bride ranger_hotsauce 2. You know how you said before, how your parents use you to get back at each other? Wouldn't I be outstanding in that capacity? 3. As Mr. Sloan always says, there is no "I" in team, but there is an "I" in pie. And there's an "i" in meat pie. Meat is the anagram of team... I don't know what he's talking about. Shaun of the Dead 4. Most people think Marv is crazy. He just had the rotten luck of being born in the wrong century. He'd be right at home on some ancient battlefield swinging an axe into somebody's face. Or in a Roman arena, taking his sword to other gladiators like him. They would've tossed him girls like Nancy back then. Sin City 5. The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return. Moulin Rogue fairegirl69 6. Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for. Because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly . . . stupid. Pirates of the Caribean 7. I guess we should feel some sort of guilt, but she broke the cardinal rule; don't fuck with people who handle your food. Waiting 8. That's when you know you've found somebody special. When you can just shut the fuck up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence. Pupl Fiction fairegirl69 9. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were merry, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire... Office Space ranger_hotsauce 10. Attention Rex Manning fans, to your left you will notice a shoplifter being chased by night manager, Lucas. This young man will be caught, deep fried in a vat of hot oil and served to our first hundred customers. Just another tasty treat from the gang at........ 11. Why are you wearing that stupid bunny suit? Why are you wearing that stupid man suit? Donnie Darko ranger_hotsauce 12. Oh, I don't have all my equipment! Ok, first, you have to confess all of your sins out loud. 13. I promised the professor that we take this guy alive. After you blow him all to hell, put one in his leg so we can tell the professor we tried. 14. I think we just picked up Dracula. 15. And if these pictures have anything important to say to future generations, it's this: I was here. I existed. I was young, I was happy, and someone cared enough about me in this world to take my picture. 16. To trudge: the slow, weary, depressing yet determined walk of a man who has nothing left in life except the impulse to simply soldier on. A Knights Tale fairegirl69 17. Now the two key words for tonight - "caution" and "flammable". 18. It's very hard to get lost in America these days, and even harder to stay lost. 19. Butterscotch? Buttergin? You running something on the side here? Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory fairegirl69 20. Why do I fall in love with every woman I see who shows me the least bit of attention?
This one's for Brandi "When you fall asleep tonight, I'm gonna fart in your face." Donnie Darko

Well I know it's been a long time since I updated. So here goes. Wolfgangs layed off all of second shift and a good chunk of first shift. So I've been poundijng the pavement looking fro a new job everywhere from Graham to Frito-Lay and lots in between. I'm now completely moved back into the house in West York. I got to go to Shakespeare and Treasure Island at Mt Hope which was awesome. Last weekend was the Faire Fest in Glenn Rock which was ok except I made the mistake of going on Sat instead of Sunday so I missed out on Albannach but, it did give me a good chance to play with my new Camera. Some other things have been going on but I'll update with those soon.
Well it's 8:42pm on March 26th 2006 I'm now 27. I'm working 7 days a week now so I went in at 7am and worked till 3:30pm I spent the whole time being in a foul mood and reflecting. I just checked my email and I got a letter I wrote a little while back from futureme.org I'm not where I thought I would be at this point. No girlfriend, no progress on continuing my education, I'm in a job I can't stand, and again I'm drifting away from people.
We are still in the process of moving the stuff out of my sister's old place into my mother's house which has everything in a holding pattern, I'm sleeping on the floor for the past 3 night for crying out loud.
Andrew was missing last night for 5 hours so that raised my stress level to new heights.
I'm making the shift BACK to 2nd shift as of tomorrow working 4pm till 2am so that will be just lovely. Oh nad they just told me that they may not be able to let me have off for Shakespeare at Mt Hope.
And to top it off no one called me today at all to wish me a happy birthday not my brother, sister, aunts, uncles, friends, Andrew didn't even say it to me.
I'm so happy oh so happy Not only did I have a wonderful time on Sat at the Terrors Show but today I got my newest peice of garb. Hehe POINTY
I saw this exact dagger at the Wicked Fest but when I made up my mind to buy it it was gone. So I searched and searched till I found it online cheaper than at the show even with shipping added. I'm a happy boy
Oh and Keith Liz Ang Matt ect ect ect I'm watching Fierfly and it is good

Thanks to everyone who passed some good thoughts my way today. We had a brand new judge (on the bench for 2 weeks I was told) Maria Musticook. She is a hard nose no nonsense type. They read all of my ex's previous contempt and non-compliance charges along with her probation record for something completely diffrent. She was given 9 months with a cash purge to get out which she said was "no problem" so she has to have it before 9 am tomorrow or she goes away for a littlw while. It made my stomach lurch when they actually sentenced her but it is for the best maybe she will do the right thing and help raise her son.
Sorry if this made no sense I'm tired and I'm going to bed night all.

Well I'm almost ready for court again *sigh*. I don't think anything will come of it but I can hope that the judge gets his head out of his butt. I hate seeing my ex lie and get away with it. At 9:00am I need positive energy. I'll let you all know what happens.
