Headaches and Sunburn

Well I just got home from working with my brother today.
I worked 8.5hrs with him today. I don't feel too bad,
I'm a lil sunburned and my head is pounding. I'm sitting
here listening to 2Pac. This music takes me back to when
I was 15. (The same age my sister in law is) 15 was going
to movies,Sneaking liquor into the theater, riding my
motorcycle around town, building computers, being on
the internet for the first time. Email was cool as hell back then.
Juno!!! Does that ring a bell to all ya'll 20-25 yr olds?!?! It
took like 5 mins to get on and check your mail and god knows
how long to write it because I was teaching myself to type.
Well I'm 21 and a half now! :-P Marriage, Mortgage, Work, Coping
with family sickness, and just trying to keep some type of goals to
keep myself focused and not going crazy. A lot of the kids I grew
up with now already have kids, I'm not about to get that old yet.
Marion has a cat so and she's happy with that so I guess I am clear
of that for a few more years :-) The more I think about it I don't
even care about having kids till I'm 30 or so. I guess time will tell
and accidents do happen... God I hope not though! Not to sounds
selfish but I want to be able to buy myself a new motorcyle and enjoy
it for a couple years before I have to sell it to pay for a kid..... I don't have
any hobbies, sports, nascar, reading, etc just don't do it for me. I got
into playing Halo on the computer, but I bet that in 5 or 6 days and now
I'm bored again! Well I got to go and get cleaned up, Marion is about to get
home and Suzie is coming by. We're going to go out to dinner or something.
Marion doesn't want me to cook the chicken yet... and she's tired.... so we're
going out. So till another date dear blogger!

....

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I just lost like 8 sentences.... Anyway....
I slept in some today, got cleaned up, Marion and me went to the Library. We
picked up an ACT book for me to study with. I hope that I can get a good score so I don't have to take a bunch of dumb classes. We next went to the mall and dropped off her engagement ring at Kay Jewelers. I have not liked that place since I had some issues
with the past store manager. Anyway the new manager was very helpful, even though I told myself I'd never buy from Kay again. I think if they had something that I liked
I would make another purchase from there. Kindness goes a long way. I'm reading How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie. That store manager acts as if he has read and applied that book is his life. After the leaving the mall we went to Wal-Mart.
We bought some food, and other things. We meet Suzanne at our place and talked for a while. Marion cooked hotdogs and Macaroni and cheese for dinner. Even something that
Simple tastes good when you’re sick of eating all the usual things. Suzanne left for meeting and we have just been sitting around the house. We were going to go to the store and buy corn syrup so we could make a pie… Marion isn’t feeling well so we decided not to. So here I am thinking about how I’ve not used much of my day to better my life. But I guess at least wanting to do something with my life is better than nothing. So I want to throw some more things away in this place… there is just too much junk around here.
So I guess I will go and make something more of my evening.

Bored and not sleepy

Well,

It's 2am and I can't sleep. I figured it would be a good time to create one of these silly WebPages. Mary feel asleep while we were talking. I know she was tired... I just am restless with tons of things on my mind. My mother's illness, financial planning, home improvements, and many other things growing up forces on you. Today was nice though,Marion and me went to the Parthenon in Nashville and looked at the art. It was alright,We didn’t get to rent a paddle boat and ride around the lake… they aren’t there anymore.I had fun riding one there with my mom and dad when I was like 5 or 6, somewhere around that age. I guess you can’t every pass fun memories on these days because some asshole wanting to make a buck does away with anything that doesn’t make a killing.Marion wants to go on a vacation sometime soon, so we need to figure out were we want to go, Canada or a beach sounds cool. I’d like to go to a west coast beach since I’ve never been to one. Well I guess I’ll zip it for now… I am going to try and get up before too late tomorrow and take my mom to the salon so Marion can cut and color her hair. Friday is like my Sunday since I have to go to work Saturday morning, so I need to make the best of it.
