Hmm, I could certainly use a new pic. I think the novelty has worn off on this one.

You know, much like many people I thought that there was something to the "American Dream."
If you believe enough and work hard enough with mind and your heart and hand you can accomplish whatever it is you're aiming for.
I have had a mission that I periodically come back to. It's two-fold.

Wow. I didn't realize this was something you wanted to do for so long. When you told me you were waiting to hear back from them, I figured you just tried to get in after thinking about it a few years.
If it helps, a lot of us don't see you as a cripple or defective or anything; We just see you as Bill.

I've got a new computer! I've got a new computer! La-La-La
It's oh-so-spiffy. I named it Hal. It's something like four times faster than my old piece of five-year-old crap. It even plays DVDs! I can watch movies in my room now.

What kind of computer did you get?
I've been officially paid for two shoots now. I have another one booked for next month and I'm working with one photographer in exchange for clothing made for me. Oh, I've also been offered a webmistress deal. Maybe I should email this to you...

My computer just had a brain hemmorhage! It won't start!
I've tried everything: I've cussed at it, yelled at it reasoned with it, tried bribery, flattery, even (God help me) trying a new power cord!
Time for a new non-union, non-communist system.

I've got a new part time job! I bounce! Well, I haven't bounced anyone yet (hoping I never have to either).
One day at work I was musing that I could sure use a second job. Since I was looking for evening work, he suggested being a bouncer. I thought about it and decided I'd give it a go.

Anybody ever see that Star Trek documentary Trekkies?
I saw most of it tonight for the first time in a while, and two things about it stuck in my head.
First: most of the fans they showed and followed were ABSOLUTELY OFF THEIR ROCKERS. JesusstuckinablenderChrist! People that go to jury duty in Starfleet uniform, erotic fan fiction with Kirk and Spock, people that memorize made...

I doubt the guy will come back, though. We got new neighbors a while back that are pretty cool. The day all the shit was going down, the cool neighbor came outside with a billy club, just in case.
How you been?

Where's it at? Maybe we'll come visit you sometime.

Not much to report at the moment. Just the hum-drum day to day existence.
You know- get up, shower, eat your Cocoa Cocoa Puffs, go to work, come home, continue your cybernetic squirrel enhancement program, watch Rocky and Bullwinkle and go to bed.

replace the cocoa cocoa puffs with cheerios, add in school, and take out those two things you mentioned last (particularly the one involving squirrels ) and that's me!

UPDATE! 
So I come home tonight from a pleasant evening hanging out with my buddies and find my mom with the phonebook out and my sister on the couch.
Then I see that she's sobbing and rocking with one of her rabbits wrapped up in a towel. The rabbit's got what looks like some vomit around her nose and muzzle and she's shivering something fierce.

Well, it's official. The Army didn't just tell me no, they told me (and this is a quote) "emphatically no."
Apparently, the United States of America has no use for people with only one good eye. There goes that idea. . . .

I'm going to give another go with the U.S. Army. I tried enlisting a bit over a year ago and got the runaround. Usually the armed forces snap up every person they can lay hands on, but I've got a bad eye that makes me an iffy candidate.

Ahh, the profile pic. Now I don't remember what you asked...

How did I put that together? Easy, I didn't. There was a thread on the boards about someone making new profile pics for people because he was bored.
I was watching Alias last night and I had the strangest thought.
But before I get into that, I think that I need to explain how my brain operates. I have this really weird, ridiculously random association thing that runs day and night. I can go from Winston Churchill's psychological profile to my favorite brand of socks in roughly two connections.

If you had a child of your own, you'd understand. I'm not the greatest with words, but I'll attempt to explain.
I know that one day, David will go on to lead his own life. He'll be all grown up and not my baby anymore. However, that's not going to stop me from teaching him about everything I enjoy doing. I'm almost 100% sure that at some point, Austin will try to teach him how to weld and fit pipe, even though David won't go on to use those skills in his life.
Maybe it's just part of being a good parent.
