Going Sane in a Crazy World

My journey through life and the lessons I learn to help me grow spiritually.

Sane Friends

Whew

Hey it's 4:30 and I'm finally getting a chance to rest. Just a busy day today. I've only seen 1 patient so far though. Just business meeting, lecture, educational seminar, and now back here to finish up the day. With my business meeting I really have to ask, "is there anything that I don't do?" I just found out I have even more responsibilities today. Oye. Oh well more ass to kick. It's funny everyone knows any tough love coming from above has started with me. Honestly I don't know who will take the position after me since no one else is a hard ass like me. I shudder to think what will happen, but hey I don't want this position forever.

I was happy that people showed up for my lecture today. Doing lectures you get use to standing in an empty room. So I was happy when 3 people showed up. They were all surprised that more didn't show. Little did they know. However I really like doing them and teaching people how to be more healthy.

Did I tell you I'm still getting offers to date. WTF? I still don't want to date until I have enough saved up for Eric and the summer since that is my number one priority at the moment. It's just so ironic that as soon as I stop it seems to be open season on me.

Playing Taps

"You don't understand! I could've had class. I could've been a contender. I could've been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am." ~ On the Waterfront

There comes a time in every man's life when he has to admit he didn't live up to the potential he thought he had. That deadlines pass and you wonder where all the time went. Maybe you think if you just planned better or just had one night of glory it could make it all balance out. Atlas that is not to be. Yes 3 condoms are going in the garbage, their expiration date has passed. I really hate waste.

A Priest & a Rabbi Walk into ....

I tell you it's like a sick joke like when your married you get hit on more than when your single. Now that I've put dating on hold for a while to kind of clear my head and save some money also, I get offers. The two women online over the weekend I guess were the beginning. This morning in the gym a woman I've seen in there before who is attractive, ends up starting a conversation with me. I had the open to ask her out, but I bowed out of it. Life is always a test to see if you will stand by your decisions.

This week is a slow one here at the office. Last week looked to be slow and turned around so here's hoping that will happen again this week. I do have a lecture tomorrow across the street. I asked for people to RSVP. I was starting to worry, but my first one just came through.

Shut Your Pie Hole!

So you know this is a ranting entry. If you don't want to listen move on to the next entry.

Once a week at least I get a email from someone in the Singles group up on the Peninsula complaining that they don't have anymore events up there. They are no longer the golden children of the group. Now they know how it feels to be the step bastard children. What really gets me is the usual of people wanting the benefits without doing any work. My response is a put up or shut up type answer in a nice way. I have yet have anyone step up to the plate to help out nor have I gotten a second email from them.

While I'm ranting I might as well ask WTF happen to my alerts to comments. I figured no one was reading anymore and then I happen to scroll down my blog and their are all these comments that I have no idea about. I know this a free service, but WTF get with the program. This is worse than the spellchecker being broken for a few weeks.

Lastly what is up with the word verifications? I know the reason we have them since the second comment on this blog was spam. However the word verifications are becoming so difficult to read it's taking me at least a minute to figure out WTH it says. This is probably becoming the child proof caps of the 21st century. We can't figure them out, but the span computers are having no problem.

Iron Man

I have to admit that my Mom is not remembering me as much when I see her. With gas prices as high as they are I only visit her once a week. She's just not that interactive these days. So the length between visits I think is beyond her. It does take her a while to remember me, although today I don't think she did. I knew she knew I was familiar, but not who I was. It's hard to parent your parent.

Anyway I had a event today to see Iron Man at the Commodore Theater. It's a great old theater with and awesome THX sound system and a big screen. Most everyone had never been there before so it was a fun experience. The Stylist and Bizarro got their way early. The rest of the group was outside waiting until Bizarro came out and got us. The box office was really anal about seating, but we were able to sit next to them so it worked out. I guess that's why it's important to follow instructions. I can't figure Bizarro out. He's talked like he wanted to run the group in the past, but I've never heard that from others. Also when people were asked to step up to the plate he didn't do it. He just might be really anal I don't know. However my instincts tell me he will be a thorn in my side.

The movie was great and I highly recommend it. Downey was born to play the role. Everyone (except Bizarro) had fun and thanked me for scheduling so many events. The new guy told me I had the most active group out there. That was nice to hear especially since I'm still doing it by myself.


The great thing is that Indiana Jones and Batman are going to be there. So I know there are 2 events right there. Now I just need to find out where Speed Racer is playing.


The truly funny thing is that I've done a lot of online dating this year and through all of that I never received one real email from any women. I'm out of dating one week and one of my profiles must still be active and I got not one, but two emails from interested women. WTF? It's Murphy's Law. Neither one was what I was looking for and I'm happy being single at the moment.

Beach Bum

I'm beat as only you can from going to the beach. Small turn out for a hike this morning, but the weather was great and their was a nice coastal breeze to keep us comfortable. We walked as far as we could. It was funny since today we walked in to Fort Story. We got to one part were they were building a pier and a roadway to the it over the sand. Since we were on their property we weren't quite sure if we could pass. There was a guard there so I asked him. On the third shout he finally realized someone was calling him. He was like sure go right ahead. We asked what they were doing and he had no clue. LOL. Ah the army's finest. What was even funnier was that on the way back his superior was there with him and he was like you can't cross. I was like we just need to get back to our car since we walked over it already. He let us do so before chewing the guard out about letting people wander around.
We did our usual Subway lunch afterwards. OMG! It took about 30 minutes before someone took my order. The 2 guys behind the counter were slow as molasses in January. The line was huge. It was like something out of a comedy movie.
So I set up our Happy Hour this month at Keagan's. I was really happy to get up set up on the patio. Everybody wanted to be outside last month so I made it happen this time. Hopefully a bunch of people come again.

Lunch Time Fun

I rarely do fancy lunches, mostly because I don't think their worth the money. However it was a beautiful day and I had a small gift certificate left over for Guadalajara's. It's family started restaurant chain started here. They just opened one up in Town Center and that was the closest one to the rest of my errands so I decided to try it out. It's much fancier than the others which almost have a family restaurant feel. This felt like big city eating and I left with a full tummy. Still it was more than I would pay for lunch even with the gift certificate. However it was a such nice place I think I might make that the next Happy Hour place for the Singles group.

I see I'm going into feast or famine with the office. While this week turned out to be one of my best in a while. I have only like 3 appointments in the book for next week. I don't like that. However most of my patients go on maintenance this week. So their is a lot of praying for new patients going on with the occasional Native American dance going also cause it can't hurt.

Home Life

As I've stated before my room mate Single is lazy and if to be perfectly blunt not the brightest bulb in the box. The last time our Landlord went away she left dishes in the sink and crap around the place until the day he came back. Well last night she came back with a friend and they baked. So this morning when I got up the sink was full and stuff was all over the counters in stacks. Hopefully when she gets up she will clean. If not I might be stacking all this crap in her room. I'm not cleaning up behind her and I also live there so I need access to stuff. We'll see.
It looks like we have a big crowd to go hiking tomorrow with on the beach. The weather is suppose to be in the 80's so the coastal breeze will be good. Then I can't wait to see Iron Man Sunday at the Commodore. It's our old style movie theater in the area. It's actually a historic landmark and I have to admit it is stepping back in time when you go there.

I Tore it a New One!

Since I had a hole this afternoon at the office and it's like in the 70's I figured let me run some errands. You know Barnes & Noble, Starbucks, Hardees for some sweet tea, and the card shop for Eric. So on the way back to the office I figured let me get gas since this one gas station is the cheapest in the area. However in pulling in I hit the curb. In 10 seconds my tire was flat. I sliced that side wall real nice. It did give everyone something to look at. I felt like a just hit and animal and left it to die the way everyone was staring.

So after filling up I moved to the side to change it. I tell you I have never in my life changed as many tires as I have on this car in the 2 years I've had it. So I was happy to have done the deed in under 10 minutes. Also my extreme happiness at having a full size spare. Still having a few moments to spare I shot over to the tire place.

Now was my chance to get mines in the ass raping they gave me when I got these mofos. They were expensive as hell, but they have a life time guarantee on them for just such an occasion. The guy didn't look too happy to be giving me a brand new tire after 5 months for just about free.

Oh well. Who's your daddy now?

Williamsburg Here I Come

Well actually not till the end of the mont, but I signed up for a educational seminar to keep my lisence. Hope it will be enjoyable, but I know it will be a selling of products. Since German girl will be out of the country I was going to drive back and forth the hour each way. However I have to be there Sunday at 8 am so I decided to get a hotel and stay the night. There are enough festivals happening that weekend so I will probably find something to do. Although I would like to visit Williamsburg since in the 4 years I've lived here I haven't gone yet.

People may joke with me about dating, but I don't seem to have a problem meeting anyone like others. However meeting anyone of quality is more of the problem. So I think one of my usual breaks from dating will do me good. Even though I seem to be meeting more women than I usually do, I'm getting too much of the freak factor in it.

The Landlord is gone for the next 5 days so I have the place to myself. Music will be blasted for sure. My roommate, who I shall name Single, we have surmised is just plain lazy. I figured this out, but my landlord is finally getting on board. Hopefully she won't leave the place a mess till he gets home.
