I keep getting spammed and I’m trying to install some WordPress thing, so the blog will be locked for a few days so I don’t get anymore useless spam.

Work is all right, my body adjusted to moving furniture and now I can move pretty much anything they throw at me. It seems to have slowed down a lot since I started there, we don’t have truck loads of furniture or work that needs to be moved, only about maybe 30-40 pieces a day which is nothing to the 120 we were moving.

With this less furniture that has to be moved, there are gaps in the day which there’s nothing to do, so I am usually waiting in someone’s office reading until I am called. Right now I’m rereading Catcher in the Rye, I think I may have started it a few years ago, but I’m not too sure if I ever finished it.

In my Me section, I added a DVD List of all the DVDs that I own, someone asked me a while ago how many DVDs I own, since I am such a movie whore. Well now my DVD collection is online, I usually buy more each month so it will be updated quite frequently.

Ever have that one special person in your life that it may seem crazy and impossible to work, but somehow it just does, somehow your feelings, your heart knows what it wants and needs? Ever have that one special person that logically it will make your head spin, but when your with that person or talk to that person, everything makes sense, everything just falls into place?

One month ago I was holding this girl close in my arms and I was looking down at her and I knew that I had to ask her to be my girlfriend, no matter how impossible it may have been at the time. Some people say that the first months of a relationship is critical, but not to be blindsided by the whole “Cinderella Period”.

I don’t think either one of us can say that this month has been perfect, there’s been ups and downs, lefts and rights, but we’re still here. We aren’t perfect by any means, we fight at times, and drunk nights can be a little revealing, but we make it through.

Probably the sweetest, yet ridiculously funny thing she did was call me up wishing me a happy one month yesterdau, getting confused as to which date it was (not when I asked her out, but the date of yesterday.

So this blog is mainly about one person in particular, which all I have to say to her is Happy One Month, baby.

So I haven’t been here for a few days, let me fill you all in on why. First of all I found a job and this last week has been hell adjusting to it. I’m moving furniture and the last time I hit the weights was more than two years ago in high school, I’m not as strong as I used to be. My first day I was sore as hell, every muscle in my body was sore. Now it isn’t that bad, even though it has only been a week, my body is adjusting. The bad part about me not being used to it, is that this is supposed to be a full time job and I’ve only worked two 8 hour days so far.

I’ve gotten some inspiration for the site, I’m thinking of some changes here and there along with some sections that I’ve wanted to have, but never really had the drive for it. Lately I’ve been pretty inspired to do things that I never thought of doing, and to finish things that was once forgotten.

I got twenty-six comments on my last blog, I’ll return them all in the coming days, but for tonite I’m going to work on some stuff and get my Despair, Excentric and Xposure sites done.

Think about the people in your life, think about your best friend and the person who your going out with. What have they taught you? What do you think they will teach you in the future?

Now think about five years ago. Think about your best friend from back then, think about the person you were going out with. What did they teach you? Where did they go?

I’m about to tell you something that many people don’t know and some never really realize, people are only in your life for as long as you need them. I’m serious. Why is it that you never have as strong of friendships when your grown up as you did when you were growing up? Because you don’t need it.

The truth is that just because you want something to stay the same, circumstances beyond our control will change the situation, and at times it will make people not be as close to some as they once were, because we don’t need them to be.

In this ever changing world, we sometimes lose people far too fast to grasp, one day someone will be there and the next day they are gone.

Maybe you don’t lose contact completely, maybe what was once entire weekends full of fun turns into a phone call every now and then. Maybe a get together every few years or so, because the party’s involved feel a certain loyalty to the other, but perhaps one doesn’t really feel much beyond that.

Think about your best friend and your current relationship. Think about how life has a way of passing us by when you’re out working, or working out. Now go tell those two people thank you for being there.

It has always been a dream of mine to visit all fifty states, 49 of them I’ve wanted to drive through and stop at little towns along the way. What makes a state great isn’t how many Walmarts or Denny’s it has, but the little Mom and Pop stores that are around. When I get older I plan on owning an RV and just driving from state to state. I’d get one now, but it’s probably best if I have a place to live that doesn’t have an engine.

I’ve been to some states already, I’ve stopped in little towns and saw the interesting things that they’ve had, the most beautiful so far had to be West Virginia. I wish I had taken a picture of it, it was a mountain, a huge mountain that was cut in half that had the highway driving through it. It was probably the most beautiful thing that I have ever seen. Each state has something unique about it, each state there is something different and unique about. One day I will visit them all.

It was my plan this summer to go back to Ohio and go to Virginia, but circumstances arose and I had to reorganize my priorities, for the better. So IU may not be going on some life altering journey just yet, I do plan on going one day. For now I have posted a page that has every state I’ve been in in red.

So to help my cause of saving money, I joined PayPerPost. It is a site where they will give you a topic to blog about, and then pay you a certain amount for that topic.

So I’m still trying to find a job, so far it isn’t going so well because the furniture store I applied at doesn’t know if they have money for me because the boss’s son is going to be working there. And I may just go and do construction in NY, but I haven’t heard anything from them either. Other than that nothing has really been up. Keep clicking on the ads, and tell your friends. If I could make some extra money from this site then it will expand I promise.

Ever notice that when you are completely lost in life, sometimes something will land in your lap and it will be exactly what you want? As many of my faithful readers know ever since I moved down to Delaware, I’ve been miserable. I’m not in a school that offers a degree I want, I absolutely hate the location, there really isn’t anything down here that I can stand.

The only reason I came down here was because of a promise I made to my mother, but since that promise has been fulfilled I was trying to figure out my next move. Right now I don’t know what my immediate next move is, but I do know that in January I will be going to CW Post in NY, my number one school. I haven’t figured out the steps up until that point, whether or not I’m going to school until then, how I’ll be paying, or anything of that nature, but I do know I’ve been accepted and I’m awaiting for the guy to call me back.

So yes after years in NJ and months in Delaware, now it is time for me to make my next move. I don’t know what my steps will be up until that point, but I get the feeling that from now on things will be getting pretty interesting.
