a busy start to 2K11...

Honestly, this year has been off to an interesting start.

New Years was a good time but I spent the first part of the year wandering in the streets because I couldn't get a cab. My program finished last year so I don't have any school so I find myself with ridiculous amounts of time on my hands, time I should be using effectively to accomplish things I need to continue moving forward in this thing called life, but I've been going to the gym, sleeping more than usual, laying around, and experiencing just a general uneasiness pretty well through the month to this point.

The odd day I would get a boost and get some things done, but I just can't seem to get the wind back in my sails. I think as to why this is, and I try to justify it to myself but I know I just gotta buck up and make things happen.

In any case, these are some of the things that are weighing on me thus far that I am taking care of, have on my mind, some good, some bad, etc...

• Today was my dad's birthday! He's 65, he's had some mild strokes, not overly healthy, he bought burial plots, which makes me pretty uneasy, but so far hes doing well, and had a solid birthday.

• My aunt, who has 5 children all under the age of 8 years old almost died last night, which was a shock, we were never close, but she is still family, and my mom is really really affected, because it's her sister, and by nature of my mom being affected, I am even more affected, so thats been tough, especially for the kids.

• I had to write an appeal letter for school on a ruling that I felt wasn't fair, so I am waiting on that, and the song is true, the waiting is the hardest part.

• My brother is in the NFC Championship on Sunday. Bears vs. Packers, so that is a huge deal because if they win that then they go to the Super Bowl and that would be awesome. Plus I didn't go when it was in Miami the last time they were there and this time it's in Dallas and I've wanted to see that stadium since Jerry Jones built that thing. I like Jerry Jones. He gets it done.

•  I don't have a job. I need money. Enough said.

• My sister is married and has two kids and they are awesome. I probably like to visit them more than I should, they are the best.

...So it's nothing too crazy, couple that with the standard issues that any guy has with family, friends, girlfriends, and potential girlfriends, wives, etc. that's pretty much where I'm at in a nutshell. It's been a weird start to the year, I'm in a bit of a funk... I gotta get out of it.

...Go Bears.
