Wedding Time Complete

Wedding time complete!! Well I kind of was late and since I was like only 70 miles away working on a fresh water pump for my parents. You just don’t know how frustrated I was when I had to drop it to try to get back in time. I’m like the one bomb squad guy with 10 seconds on the timer left and I’m saying “only 30 more seconds and I got it.  I ended up being kind of late and I had to sneak in and sit in the back …. Mission failed!! Unfortunately it is a small church and when I went to walk in apparently the isle is like RIGHT there so I was in the middle of the wedding shot from the video camera looking around. Then when I sat down what happens I forgot to turn off my phone so the O’jays “For the Love of Money” will be heard on their wedding videos. Hmmm not good. But some of the attention was taken off of me when my cousin who is one of the groomsmen fainted. I thought something worse had happened but turns out luckily he was only too hot. I managed to get there before too far in the ceremony thanks to my rebuild engine in my jeep! Wow i'm so glad to have wheels again now I can go where ever I want and finally come home from school quickly, you just don’t know how much I cant wait to go home after a long 3 hour class or 4 hours if its physics day.

Don’t you hate it when you get clothes out of the dry cleaners and you look down after eating and it’s something on it? Man so now my favorite shirt has to go back into the cleaners for anther go around. But good news I got the rest of my crap back so I can look sharp for when I go to the women’s conference. I might be to shy to talk but I’m not to shy to look good while doing it.

Wedding time?

Wedding Time?


     Wow looks like everyone is getting married or something. My cousin is getting married tomorrow and one of my oldest friends is jumping the broom next year but we are going to pick tuxes on Sunday. Man seems like time is flying by I guess that one of my favorite sayings “time waits for no man” is definitely true. I even went to one of my cousin’s web page and he’s talking about finding a special someone. I keep getting asked when i'm going to walk down the isle but my reply is “Hey are you paying for it?” Weddings are expensive and I’m sorry I still have too many things I want to do before I get hitched because when I get married I want to be able to pay complete attention to my lady.  Hey but first you got to find one and so far the outlook is pretty grim in this city. Not many women are into pick nicks walks and just driving somewhere and relaxing. One girl even told me one time she was tired of receiving roses…. Wow.  Sorry i’m a chronic flower and gift giver (just won’t be big gifts any more) it’s in my nature. Even girls i’m just friends with usually get some kind of flower on Valentines Day just unfortunately that’s not many lol.  Guess i’m am a pretty rare specimen I can be super tough but flip a switch and get as soft as I need to be. Guess this good guy stuff isn’t so bad after all.

" Dude you always catch the wrong episodes..."


Ok ok ok yeah I need to not be so hard on shows but as I'm laying in insomnia last night I get to catch a episode of Sex and the City and susposedly it is susposed to be good. Well it seems I always catch the messed up episodes. For instance I like vampire stories so I decided to catch an episode of Buffy. Turns out its the one episode where she gets bitten by Angel..... Well what kind of slayer is that??? So I never watched it again. There's a few other shows I watched like that Will and Grace , Friends, ... ect. Well anyway I got a thing about watching people who cheat I don't know it just sets me off. Its not that they cheated .... Ok well I guess it was but it just seems all wrong when it happens and it just pisses me off that things like this happen in real life. Ok so I don't know the characters but apparently the skinny long blond haired lady has this "wonderful" boyfriend. So wonderful she has a one night stand with a married man and apparently its so great she's having flashbacks and longing for this guy instead of her "wonderful" boyfriend. Ok so that right there off the back pissed me off. What the hell were you doing with someone else if you have a "wonderful" boyfriend?? Ok so it gets worse .... Then her boyfriend goes out of town so she goes about working around the house to forget the other man but wait she calls him!!!! Failure!!! So by now I'm like growling and muttering stuff about the show but I gotta keep watching how much more scandalous can it get? Apparently a lot more. Well she ends up sleeping with him again and again and in her boyfriend's and her bed and she even has separate sheets she called the "sex sheets" and the other guy says he can even smell her boyfriend on the sheets. Ok so I'm like wow what a %&#^ but I keep watching cause by now I'm shaking my head. So her boyfriend comes home and she gives him a big hug and calmly states that she hopes her boyfriend cant smell the smell of the other guy. WOW.... So she goes on to regret what she did but she doesn't tell the guy he's totally in the blue about the whole thing and meanwhile she's still dreaming of the other guy not the "wonderful" boyfriend. Well in the end she claims to break it off with the extra guy and comes back to her boyfriends apartment after she thinks she loses his dog and he hugs her and says " I can smell it you have been cheating haven't you?" she has a horrified look on her face and just when you think she's going to do the right thing he says "you have been smoking haven't you? Are you smoking again?" Does she come clean? NOOOOOOOOOOO ... She instead says yeah I'm back smoking and gives him a hug episode over. At this time all I can say is horrible things about the lady. Cause she found someone she liked better? Nah only cause instead of sneaking around and sleeping with others why not just tell your boyfriend that you want to see other people or tell him its not serious in the first place. I know if someone did this to me I would be upset but I would have to give the girl brownie points for not sneaking around behind my back sleeping with the whole town!! Don't waste other peoples time if your not going to be faithful say something and move on trust me it will save us guys a lot of time an trouble especially if we get suspicious it saves us gray hair!!! Guys same thing tell the girl " hey its been a blast but you know I'm just not in to it right now lets see other people" well not in those words but let them know up front before you go stick your flag in someone and claim them in the name of Spain. It might be painful but it will be worse if the person finds out you been playing in someone else's sand box. I know I'm taking it waaaaaay too seriously and some are probably saying hey I'm sure you have done that too. Nope I can proudly say no I haven't and I know for a fact that my conscience would hang me. I don't know how people deal with it but man for some reason it just bugs the hell out of me..... Maybe I'm paranoid? Nah just an avid TV watcher who jumps too far into the story. But hey I guess that makes it good TV right?

Ah I'm alive again...


that's the one bad thing about me I might not get sick often but when I do it takes to to the depths of despair and leaves me there then magically I feel so much better the next day. I had a monster temp and couldn't walk cause it was a head cold and I didn't get my physics work done because it slept almost all day Sunday. Well I hope he will let me turn it in on Wednesday if not ill just have to deal with it and do something else to make it up. I'm just glad today isn't a lab lab day you can only miss 3 and I have missed 2 already I'm going to need that extra one when I go to help my aunt ant the United Conference of Women. No I'm not going to oogle the girls or anything but I go to help unload the truck and such. Its kind sad when my idea of a vacation is going somewhere to work LOL. Next year planning a Montana trip one of my good friends from my old job suggests I drive which I might do but ill have to build a car to do that. If I'm going to drive ill grab that convertible mustang from my neighbors garage he wants to get rid of and fix that up using the millions of parts in my basement. Will be a fun trip he pointed out some good places to stop and some stuff to check out. If I don't drive ill fly and of course that will be quicker but I'm not exactly a flying fan. But anyway glad to get some time off soon next month and that Montana trip hopefully in July. I would be enjoying my time off today if I wasn't typing on my keyboard from bed and my hair looks like someone stuck my finger in a socket.

Win the battle lose the war....


Man i missed taking my antibiotics for my sinuses ..... big mistake now i feel like someone ran me over with the whole Tour De France. Man i better feel good tomorrow i got physics work to do.
What in the world?


Yup I have no idea. From strange convos about pleasing women to people asking me when I'm going to get married .... Yeah its been a strange week. I haven't been feeling well ..... Shoot I forgot to take my antibiotic .... oh well anyway its like i sat up this morning and woke up on another planet. Seems like I've been sleep for ages or something feels weird. Well anyway I was talking with some friends about the usual stuff and some how it always gets on girls and how sometimes it just seems like all the girls don't want the nice guys who want to take care of them. Yeah I know everyone has said it before that nice guys finish last and I had that mindset for quite some time but after talking to some people my opinion has changed. At work for instance I'm always saying hello to people I'm always polite so technically I'm a nice guy at work. Most people like to hang out with me although I'm not the most hypest person to hang out with (unless I'm sleepy or want to have a really good time that's another story) but I make people laugh and listen when they want to talk and some time offer advice which I of course tell them hey its just my advise I'm not a professional. But usually people don't mind hanging around with me and that's fine with me so I guess score one for the good guys. But as I sit here and I look at myself I see that usually that's what makes me happy. Talking to a girl making them smile giving them a hug when their sad it may seem sappy but you gotta admit that cool. And hanging out with the fellas cracking jokes watching the girls have a good time. Its not so bad being a good guy and perhaps the reason that we don't usually get the girl is that its in our nature to make people happy and that's it. Most women I find don't take the time to hang around with the good guys to break through that wrapper and find the wild man underneath. Most write the good guys off as soft or wimpy but speaking for myself I'm one of the most hard core nice guys you will find. I used to street race I've done 150mph plus on many occasions and I'm willing to try lots of different things and go different places I have a truly wild side that I keep in check but thing is you would have to get to know me to see that side of me. So ladies next time you see that shy guy in the corner and he looks kind of shy go over and check him out who knows he may be the good guy that's oh so bad! So to all the nice guys keep your head up out there and keep doing what your doing there's honor in going out like a true man one with honor and known for being one who's got everyone's back when that need it. *insert hero's walk here*

Actual piece of a convo:
"Wow the girl who catches you will get a really good guy..." - guy from work
"They gotta tame me first and that could be hard to do i bite.... He he he"- me

Wounded....


Ouch!!!! Holy crap I upped my weight on my weightlifting schedule and boy do I feel it!! My genetics are not built for me to be a huge guy but I am gaining strength and more definition shoot I'm even loosing weight! Man I tell you what though walk 5 miles in a hour if you want buns of steel cause man I hurt still when I sit down. I have to pick up a back brace cause of my catastrophic injury a while back my back is still weak and I need to build the muscles around my spine and lower back so I been working on that. But man this hurts but it hurts good *RAWR*. I think I might up my schedule so I can work out more but its definitely showing looks like i might be in shape for Venice beach after all. *flex* *flex* Time to pass out tickets to the "Gun Show" LOL j/k.
Sad songs and more.....


Man I got this song stuck in my head and I cant remember what the name of it is!! Its been driving me crazy and all I can do is hum the beat! I don't know who sings it I don't know the words I don't know what CD it is ah oh well. Ill just wait until it comes on the radio once every 4 days like it does. I been listening to to much sad music that combined with being super bored lately just make me sleepy. The other day I was sleep in the hallway at school and someone poked me to see if I was alive. Usually I bite people when I'm poked by strangers but I guess I did look kind of dead sitting in the hallway. Speaking of which I need to go buy my physics book so I can do my homework. Man I'm just not up to it I miss my friend I talk to on line all the time now I'm just bored at night. Oh well time for bed ..MMMMMMMMMMMMM!! (viewtiful joe joke)

Ever had that.....


Ever had the feeling your either missing some thing or something is wrong? I can't nail it down but I got the sinking feeling that something is going on that I don't know about. It weird cause usually I'm right when I think that just the problem now is I have to figure out what. Looks like I got a mystery to solve. Well any way got my horrible id picture today apparently there's a delay from when the flash goes off and the thing takes the picture man ....That's bad looking. Oh well back to work tomorrow. Man.... If only I could put my finger on it .. I could sleep easier. Maybe I'm paranoid?

Home Again Home Again.....


Well got sent home from work today cause there is a lack of work to do. Man not what I had in mind at all I really need the cash especially since my engine is being rebuilt in my jeep. But anyway I finally got to go to all my classes and I still need a physics book but it seems like its going to be a good class. Well at least some good news this week a good friend of mine found out that her Grandmother might be ok after all. Cancer is nothing good at all I have lost many cousin and aunts and uncles to it and even had a scare with my own mother so I'm glad to hear things are looking better but they are not out of the water yet. I will be praying for you all and my church will too. Well at least I get to take a nap and do some work before school maybe even play a little wow. Bah who am I kidding, I'll spend probably most of my time talking to her that's he highlight of most of my days anyway. :)

Catch Up!!


Tomorrow will be my first day of physics class. Why my first day even though schools been in a week and a half? Cause its been a rocky start for my school year. With me not getting financial aid I have to pay for every thing so I still don't have books and stuff like that but Monday ill get my physics book. I'm hoping I wont have to play catch up too much I know I missed 2 labs already but I think that wont hurt me too much I'm just hoping I can stay on the deans list this will be my 3rd year in a row YAY!! Engine rebuild tomorrow for my jeep and I need an exhaust and some tires gotta get that before winter. A lift kit would look good on it too hey if I gotta keep it forever then I might as well make it sweet.

The Strong Silent Type?


Man ever wish you could just say what ever you wanted? Boy I wish I could but I suffer from chronic shyness! Ever have friend that likes someone but just can't say anything? Yep that's me. Now don't get me wrong I'm pretty brave having been though some trying stuff, guns pulled on me guns put to my head, angry gold fish all that kind odd stuff. But dog gone it when it comes to telling someone especially a girl anything besides small talk man I'm as cold as a clam. So meanwhile while I'm trying to say what I want I got my conscience asking me questions like ... Ok tom your going to go for it but what if she gets offended ? Hey I wouldn't say that don't you think that's being a little bit forward? So I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm second guessing myself like 90% of the time although it does keep me from saying the wrong things or looking like a womanizer, it doesn't look that cool when your sweating bullets just to say you want to go on a date or you want to see if things could go further. Yep not cool at all .... But hey I got a reputation to maintain so gotta be tough on everything else..... Just keep this under your hat.

We're Here to Pump *clap* U Up


Been working on my weight training for the past 3 weeks now I'm on a regular plan of heavy weights low reps to get my mass up and I can tell already!! I'm looking more in shape although I don't move like it cause I hurt in places I didn't know existed. But my main goal is to get off that think layer of fat I have in just the wrong places. When I had a fat test done I was 3.2% body fat but man it just must mass around my lower back muscles its like I have half a love handle LOL. I'm getting my 6 pack back and all the other cool muscles I had before I got sick and was laid out so I'm coming back together slowly. Alright Venice beach here I come!!! Who knows I might just take my shirt off...... nah maybe not.

Relax and play...

Not a bad holiday weekend got a chance to sit back and relax despite taking care of 2 dogs that I have to keep separated. Went to the Michigan renaissance festival had a good time there. Picked up a gift for a good friend it feels good to get something for someone again so had to make it something good. I just hope she likes it and it fits. Other than that lots of swords and costume planning. I got a good wooden sword (real weapons are not allowed) design floating in my head I might start work on it this weekend .... Either that or help finish my fathers car. I got a lot of work to do on that and tomorrow I have to walk to school from work because I still have no car. Well hopefully I will get a chance to take a look at a truck tomorrow if I can get out there before the dealership closes other than that I have to possibly take a day off or skip school neither of which I really want I already missed a week getting everything straightened out. Man ever wish you could just hit the lottery? I could do all the stuff I'm planning now and take it easy for a while. Whew!

Skip one of those days its one of those weeks....

Ever had one of those weeks where everything starts out ok then by the end of the week you wondering just what the hell happened? Yeah pretty much that was this week. It started out good birds singing in the trees sun shining but man by the end ....Wow its like a train wreck. Well it started off good got my classes for school just happened t to get the last seat in the classes I needed to but I guess for that fortune I had to give up something. First off I break stuff at work not cheap stuff the expensive stuff.... They said its not my fault so I leave it at that. Next IM driving home and I smell the faint aroma of burning oil .... Wait burning oil!!! Well I think its not my car well I hope its not my car ..... Well when I stop I look underneath and guess what? A large puddle is forming of motor oil from the rear main seal on the engine. Awesome ill just call the shop down the street and get it fixed right? Wrong wrong!!! They don't do those kind of repairs but they refer me to another shop so I'm like cool. BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZT sorry Tom lets tell you what you didn't win! They don't do seals so now I'm stuck and I cant go anywhere .... Well at least my sister can give me a ride to get some food and maybe to return the videos I rented. Ah well at least I can get a ride to work with a friend bad news is I have to sleep outside until it opens cause he has to be to work 3 hours before me. Nothing like sleeping outside at 3am. So the quest for a newer car begins along with the quest to fix that one. What will turn up? Will out hero be able to get this one fixed? Will anything else go wrong?? Tune in next time for another action packed episode!!
