The Dawning

I've come to stop you
But your power is great
I've come to destroy you
But now I must wait
I've come to believe you
But you tell me these lies
I've come to become you
Cause we have the same eyes
I've come to ensnare you
But you cannot be caught
I've come to trust in you
But trust won't be bought
I've come here to show you
But you cannot see
I've come to erase you
But I can't cause you're me

I was born in 1978. I grew up mostly in the 80's and 90's. The difference between that world and the state of the world today is staggering.

Sure, there were threats to the US, but they were quickly silenced because we were a nation to be feared. People lived their lives without fear that the building they worked in, the places they shopped, or their homes were in danger of being blown up. We weren't worried that some psychopath was going to walk into a movie theater and open fire.

I want to have hope for the future of the world, but it's so fucking hard when I can barely go a week without some kind of senseless tragedy happening.

I'm just sad. Not for myself, but for the children that have such an uncertain future if things like this continue to happen. I don't wanna bring a child into THIS world. It wouldn't be fair to them.

I'm not smart enough to know what can fix this. I wish I was. I wish SOMEONE was. I'll keep having hope until it's impossible to do so....

The Ravens won! I have been waiting twelve years for them to be champions again. What an amazing Superbowl that was. I thought we had it all locked up after the first half and then the 49ers battled back and almost took it from us.

It was also a great night hanging with some great friends. Now I need to go out and buy some Baltimore Ravens championship gear.

So, I'm sitting in the back room at work in the dark because I have the worst migraine ever. My pills have done nothing for me, so I just sit here in extreme pain.

In other news, I hit 15,000 followers on tumblr the other day. I know it's just the Internet, but it feels good knowing that many people like my blog.

So, today I reached 15,000 followers on Tumblr. I know it's not that big of a deal, but it gives me a sense of accomplishment that so many people enjoy my blog.

I've decided to have a little contest in celebration. So, everyone that reads this should go follow me and partake in the contest.

Things are going so well right now. My job has gotten a million times better, I have the most amazing girlfriend, and I actually have some exciting plans for the future. I don't wanna toot my own horn, but after all I've been through in life, I deserve it.

For those of you who don't know me personally, I'm currently in a long distance relationship (Well she lives 3 1/2 hours away). This week I'm having the great pleasure of her company for 5 while days. I'm actually writing this while she is sleeping beside me. I'm so fucking in love with this girl. She has saved me from the monotony that I call life. Everyday that I'm with her, my heart grows happier and happier. I feel like 2013 is going to be a great year.

As I sit here, bored, on a Thursday night, I wonder what my next great life experience will be. I'm so bored with life and just want to do something crazy. Short and sweet blog, because it's a short and sweet thought.

I need a sexting partner. I miss some good old fashioned sexting. Talking dirty to each other all day and sending dirty pictures taken in places they shouldn't be. Is that too much to ask? I think not.
