If asked a month ago where I would be now, I never would have even come close to guessing how happy I am. My room actually resembles a bedroom now, instead of some sleeping bags on the floor of a storage room. I've began the process of learning how to properly measure, cut, glue, staple picture frames, learned the software to cut the mat, and...

So, Zinth found me here on SG, we met up, been having a great time together. We went to an SGLA event last night and met quite a few people and had lots of fun! It was really nice to actually get out and meet people, and I can't wait for more events!

OK. I need to start using my feet now too!
See you at Club Suicide?

Indeed. And go hiking. hahaha
So, asGuitargeek knows, I've landed myself a pretty sweet deal. I rent a room in back of a storefront, and I get the opportunity to run a pictureframing business. It has lots of potential, many opportunities, as the guy has lots of ideas for the business. He currently has paintings that Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters wants framed, he is best friends with Joe...

And everytime you think you're good to go, you get sucker punched in the face, drop kicked, and hit with a baseball bat...you know, Fuck love. What the hell is the point? ya, you get to be with someone and you have good times, you get some sex, it's great. But is it really worth all the pain? I can hang with friends and have...

D'oh, sounds like you've been through some things over the past couple of weeks. Sorry to hear that. 
Having been there quite a few times myself, I would say it is worth the pain, but... It sure never seems like it while it's fresh. Good luck in whatever it takes to get you back in the right headspace.

Damn, that's what you should have put in your journal! Sounds to me like you've already landed on your feet, kudos to YOU!
I worked at a gallery, years ago. My best friend got me a job as his framing assistant, he was very creative with his matte cutting and shadow boxing and whatnot.
Did you get the Geo or the VW in the split?

You know, Life does crazy wonders to you. You grow up playful, then get serious, then have fun, fall in love, move to new places, get hurt, get over it, and keep on going. And all through it, you know that you are becoming a better person through it all...well, hopefully! I've heard of a few people who keep going through the old routine, but...

Why is it when things are going great and wonderful they all have to come crashing down around you??
guitargeek:
What happened?

Wow, Trev sounds like a fucking shitheel.
Time to take stock in your situation and figure out how to get the fuck out of there.

From 172 to 165 and going...I've done the herbal cleanse, and now that I can finally eat anything I want to, I don't want to eat anything else but the healthy stuff I've been eating...kind of...

Today is day 6 of my cleansing and I feel great! I don't feel like sleeping in anymore. Even on my day off, when the boyfriend's alarm goes off at 5:30 in the morning, which has always waaaaay to early for me! I always get up, but the awesome thing is is that I'm also not tired or exhausted! I wake up, lay there for...

Heh, sorry for the super slow reply! Life has been busy, and as usual I seem to avoid my computer more than I should. For working in IT, I sure end up avoiding the computer at home a lot.
MIPS is a robotic bunny that connects to the internet and...mostly just acts as an amusing information source. He tells the time and the weather, reads the news, and makes lots of random quips. If you look up Nabaztag, you'll find info on them. They're neat. Certainly not a "must have" item, but he's a fun electronic friend to have around the house.
Good to hear you're having nice results with a cleanse diet! I've thought about doing that kind of stuff before. However, I like my soda and my booze just a little bit too much, and dont think I'd have much luck giving those up for long.
I'm leaving shortly to head down to California for the week for a work thing. I'm surprised how nice the weather is in Irvine. I'd expected it would be a lot hotter. Is this normal weather for your neck of the woods?

Day 3 of my herbal cleanse, and I have been feeling great! I have been getting straight out of bed when I wake up instead of continuing to sleep for 2 more hours...I get up, have a good energy drink and Catalyst, then have a fiber shake and meal replacement. I've been running at night with my doggy, which he really enjoys. I've been jogging/walking...

Today my herbal cleanse pack and other helpful products arrived, I'm excited! I will be cleaning out my body, which will help it to absorb the good nutrients that I've been better at digesting. I've got a good energy drink, meal replacement shakes, Catalyst (which helps shed fat while preserving muscle), and the cleanse itself. I'll update everyday and let everyone know how well it...

And yup, I got a smart. Yeah, they are environmentally friendly, but really more in manufacturing and recyclability than in mileage. Only around 40mpg, which isnt actually that amazing. But they're just cute, and really fun to drive.
So life in California is perking back up then? Actually, I could see where some time being single in a new place could be good for you. Lets you spread your roots a little further, and make a bigger circle of friends. Having been with my girlfriend for over 3 years now, I have noticed that I get out and mingle with new people a lot less than I used to.
