New post!
Still going strong with my girlfriend.
I've been so busy with her and my job that I haven't even been going online lately. But I still exist.
In other news my roommates are officially getting a divorce. Which means my living situation is getting more complicated. By complicated I mean expensive; the soon-to-be ex wife moved out and now it's just us guys.
Business is still an uphill struggle. I'm always just one step behind, and success seems like a carrot on a stick being dangled in front of my head by some infernal jockey. So I just keep on running.
I heard the song "wake me when september ends" on the radio this morning and it reminded me of how my life felt exactly one year ago. From september to november especially it was a rough time. I was still suffering from the loss of my mother(still am, but the wounds are less fresh), I hated my job, and I was lonelier than ever. Every time that song would come on the radio, it made me feel like I really did want to just fast-forward through a few months, or sleep them off while someone else took care of me. But relief never came, and that song always reminded me that I would eventually pull through.
So when I heard it this morning, it made me think... my life is hard right now. It kinda sucks. In a lot of ways. But in a lot of other ways I am happier than ever. And I feel grateful for that. Life sucks less than it did last year. lol
So yeah... hearing it made me draw a parrallel between these two periods of my life. And while many things are still the same and I sometimes feel like I am falling, in reality I am ever so slowly battling my way uphill.

You need to get on more.
How's life? Work? The girlfriend? How was your Halloween? Ect...?
I walked to the door to give candy to trick-or-treaters with my snake around my neck, and freaked 'em out every time. Kids are easy.
"Ewwwww!! Oh my god, what is that? Aaah, it's a snake!!" ha ha.
"There were 3 other ghostbusters and one stay puft marshmallow man, just by coincidence! So we had pretty much the whole cast!"
That, is the coolest thing ever!!!! So great. If you get pics, I definitely want to see.
That sucks about work, I'm sorry But, the two-job thing isn't so bad. It will be good to have the extra cash, you'll appreciate the money, and at least you're used to the service industry... right? It could always be worse. You have life, love, a job (even if it doesn't pay enough, at least you have one) That wonderful supermodel-girlfriend who loves you for you, that I've been telling you you'd find forever (you're welcome )
And, if it takes finding the girl you've been waiting for to kick you offline for long periods of time, I'll wait in between updates I'm happy for you.
Still, ridiculously fucking cool about the ghostbusters, lol.
