Keep pushing forward

I keep reaching out keep grasping at the stars I keep on keeping on, but I just can't seem to get where I'm going. This isn't the way it was meant to be. This isn't the final version of me I keep on wanting to change but the brass ring just isn't quite in my range. Striving for the finish needing to accomplish all I can because that is the truest measure of what makes a man. 
A Man is defined by all that he does in life to better the world for those that he loves. What makes him do all that he can to improve the world around him? Is it selfish need to change things or is it simply PRIDE that makes him crave for change. The world is CHANGE time is CHANGE and in due time all things must change. We adapt and grow no matter how much we fight it. Maturity is a side effect of time. I know for the past few years I've tried hard to ensure my AGE would not affect my capacity for fun, but I must admit no matter how hard I've tried things that were a blast at 23 seem very tiresome to me at 29. Now I have vowed to live this my last year of my 20s to the fullest, but I still must recognize there are certain things I just can no longer do.
I mean drinking, staying up all night, chasing after girls that would never have me that sums up the OLD days, but I'm happy with my current life there are only a few minor tweaks i wish to make.  I feel life is changing around me and I can feel things are going to be morphed for the better. I see it coming I feel it coming & dammit I'm going to make sure to do everything in my power to ensure me and my family come out on top in the end. Life isn't about riches and wealth it is ultimately measured in HAPPINESS & HEALTH.

Food coma weekend


This has been interesting. Yesterday our fridge/freezer died so we were left with a choice for the ages; cook it or toss it. Needless to say we are currently overloaded with all sorts of food stuffs. Steaks, sausages, roast, and chicken of all types. All this being said I am currently full and happy, but I am anxiously waiting for the repair man to come and give us a place to store all this grub. So much meat and formerly frozen veggies all needing a cool place to be stored in order to be ready at a moments notice for many meals to come.

That's one way to honor a saint


I'm not saying I believe in the whole catholic Saint thing. Honestly don't understand how the entire process works, but I'm sure whoever started saint-ifying people never envisioned one of these saintly people to be used as an excuse to wear free in order to stay pinch free and get ugly drunk. I'm not saying I haven't happily partaking in the festivities but still I know there is so much more to it then Irish drunkenness. Oh well that's enough bitching for now so bust out the Guinness and round us up some little people to deck out in green. It's ole St Pat's day and its time to insult an old and diverse culture with a parade of stereotypes even though its done with "good intentions".

Movie Talk: 'Oz' Could be Next Big Film Franchise

OK Alice in Wonderland is one thing. It was a classic story made into a CARTOON, but this my friends has already been done and done well.... why mess with perfection?

It blows my mind the Potter people are going to even attempt to redo something to this level. I understand this will be the new DARK re-imagined non musical but come on REALLY... Why NOW why THIS? Hollywood is killing me softly with its REPETITIVE song.

Adventures in a GMC Sonoma



ok first off why when trying to writ SONOMA on my phone predictive text thinks I'm trying to write SODOMY? what kind of freak does this phone think I am...its bad enough everytime I attempt to write GOING it gives me HOING but sodomy really??

So February ended with a *BANG* literally. Closing days of the month my drivers side tire decided to explode on me as I was heading home from work. Now I'm proud to say I handled it well and stayed calm as a cucumber that is until the next day when I found out No One has my tire readily available. No seems GMC was playing a joke on me by giving me 16" rims when 15" are standard for my truck.  So after heading every place that sells AFFORDABLE tires with no successful purchase I was forced to go to the only place that ever seems to have my tires on hand...America's Tires. Now there is nothing wrong with the company in all honesty I think they do amazing work. My only knock is they are so damn expensive & I just hate they are my only option. So after a long crappy donut riding weekend I started March emptying my bank account to get some tires before heading to work. Never how you want to start a new month, but that's how I kicked off this month of Irish drinking.
