Greetings and salutations to all my SG friends.
I know it's been quite a while since i've given a real update but i've been a busy little bastard and my computer hookup has his new girlfriend over constantly and their fucking is putting a serious strain on my internet habit, the selfish assholes.
Well then, yet another IWF show has come and gone and boy oh boy was it ever a kick in the mommy and daddy bits. On the upside I got to see Tracy Smothers, a wrestling idol of mine, work a match and it was like watching a God at work. Secondly, and perhaps most significant, is that I finally wprked a match in the ring as a wrestler. My first match was a twenty one person, three ring, over the top rope elimination match. I think I did rather well, If I do say so myself, and i'm not the only one who says it either, Frost, my best bud and trainer said he was really proud of me and bragged on me all night long, that and everybody said that they were seriously worried about me becasue I was selling everything so well that they really thought I was hurt. I worked a bunch of workers!
That was the ups, now for the downs. Before, during, and after the show it was plauged with all the usual bullshit that happens but on top of all that our booker, who happens to be a good friend of mine (I think) and another good worker friend of mine and they've both quit. This means that all of the people closley connected with each one of these individuals may not be coming back for any number of reaons all of which could potentially mean the end of the IWF.
You want to know the worst part? I'm not really sure I care anymore. Seriously. I've pretty much accomplished everything that someone of my limited abilities can in this buisness and i'm really sick to my soul of all the bullshit, I have way more than enough bullshit to deal with in my real life to deal with all of theirs.
I think I may retire, quit, walk away. I don't know. I know i've tried hard, I know i've done as well as I can and I think i've made the people who I wanted to proud of me. I may be done.
All of this and my kids just got back into school, and all of the usual money problems, and my personal life is in the toilet, and i'm obviously a big ol' bitch.
Oh well, enough self pity for a bit.
Here's hoping everybody gets what they need, or at least enoguh to get by with.
Peace.

You need to follow your heart my friend. Though I'm not sure the reality of which you have to work with, however, one can make family obligations, and financial obligations work. Being happy is the only thing we have, ultimately. Have you ever considered packing up and getting on an oil rig contract? Travel, killer money. I'm not sure what your skills are, but it might be nice for you to get a way for a time. *hug*
