My son is about to turn 3 months old on the 26 this month. I'm hardly ever home to see my family because I am averaging around 108-120 hours a week. The other day I worked 30 hrs. straight, but I love seeing Heather when i get home then lying down with Lochlan on my chest. That's about it for now.

| Basically the Best Week Ever |

So basically, within the last week, I've bashed my foot against a 2x4, stabbed my hand, dropped my tape measure in the water out in queens harbor marina while patterning a boat, then almost fell into the water out in Whitney's Marina installing a boat in rain and 20 knot winds. To top all of that off my car has just started acting up (probably from a busted valve or my catalytic converter just went bad). So basically it went to shit... and I just sent in an application for a loan for 17 thou. Saw a Chev. Colorado LS Z71 for 13,570. I just hope i get approved. Pray for me -_-.

Hey, how are you guys doing? I haven't updated in a while. So life after high school... not as exciting as I had wished, but i'm enjoying it. My family moved to Tennessee so I had to get a place of my own. Of course that means working more hours so i can survive and on top of that school. There's no time for much fun though. It kinda blows.

i'm not better than you. you're not better than me. what makes a person better than another person? as soon as you start thinking that you are guess what? you're even lower than the chumps around you. as soon as you realize that you are no better than anyone else... anything else. now a person can be more aware of the things around them, thus they could either study their surroundings and improve it *best* or they can pay no attention and possibly make it worse *bad*. like caleb said good is productive and bad is destruction. so many circumstances for better and worse. a person can do really bad things... which would i guess make them a bad person... the slime of the streets.
comment anything productive that would add on to this.

ok so i'm driving around right? and i go up to satilla. sable, my brother, and i are out front. i see the car lighter in my car so i decide to play with it. it wasn't hot at first... but then i touch it with my thumb. hm... guess what happens next? my thumb starts to sizzle for like a second or two and it burned... bad. so, naturally i scream sable turns around frantically and my brother is calling me a dumbass *i don't deny it*. ok 3 seconds later i'm like, "holy shit! hahaha that burned like a bitch ^^." *i laugh about it. i go to taco bell get ice. and drove to thomas and alan's with brian and sable. i show alan and he laughs *because it is funny and all*. we chill there with thomas, julius, and alan for a few. ok around 5:30 i go home and blah blah. 6:30 i go get alan to go to the movies *saw hitch... very good haha*. then after that we chilled at his house. and just now i realized that my left thumb doesn't have it's origanal finger print ><. it's the shape of the car lighter... perfect circles... on top of that it's leather hard, and to add on it's numb haha. wow i'm a certified dumbass.

Fuck war. Can you see the scarlet red on the battle fields, the unclean mist wraps around your feet, both past and present. humanity has soiled the earth with the pointless wars to satisfy their greed, want for more power, and beliefs. Power is war... greed is war... religion is war... war is all around us, it is the entity that causes death yet somewhat production. Think to yourself for a moment...
-------------
yeah the thought of death and nature of humans and animals was running through my mind while i was reading a book... so.

So I guess I'm a hypocrite... I would love to tell people how i feel. But I guess I'm afraid of the responses I will get. Now people that I have talked to know I tell them that they should do what ever they feel they should do, but while I tell them that I, myself, is to scared to do what I please. Every night I lay on my bed, after reading a section of my book, wondering what would happen if I was with you alone walking under the cool, clear, night's sky and told you... maybe I shouldn't put it on here. I guess I'll sound like I'm a loser or whatever :/. Whatever not like I'm gonna know everybody here after high school anyways. What if i told you that i wouldn't want to spend time with anybody else if I couldn't spend time with you... what if I told you that you were beautiful... I could hold you in my arms all night, and if we were just "friends" you know you could come to me if you need a shoulder.
Bleh... haate... I hate emotions. The ones that make you feel great. Then there is the one that is preventing you from sharing it. Errr... i'm a loser. sorry about the rant.
