This is a subject I often find myself musing over... and not always quietly, much to Shaya's perpetual annoyance. The concept of good and evil is something every child is raised to understand, and yet it's so vague an idea in reality that few people reference it outside of fictitious entertainment. In such cases you have a clear-cut hero and ( Read more... )

Tuesday morning crept up on my a little faster than I was expecting. I was just planning on getting home from working, checking a couple things online, and hitting the hay. But nope, doh, need to update this thing. *sighs* As I alluded to, there are a couple of things I'd like to share, but dangit it's 4 AM and I'm going to have to get to it later ( Read more... )

Well, I have a promise to keep, so I'm resuming my journal entries ( Read more... )

You know how when two people have a fight (like in a car or or confined room) and it's followed by a period of silence, both start getting that strong desire to resume talking rationally and begin the healing process, but neither person wants to be the one to break that silence? It doesn't really make sense does it? Yet it's as common as a ( Read more... )

Even with gas prices taking a dip, they're still outrageous. They'll stay outrageous until they're back down to $1.70 p/g like they were a year and a half ago. Probably not going to happen, but still, it should still be around that price following the normal price hike trend over the past 20 years. I still remember when it hit $2.00+ for the first ( Read more... )

I was born to be a legend
Dreamin' of the seventh heaven
Pretty baby I was born to fly

Howlin' wind that blows into my hair
I just wanna race my freedom up into the air

Rider of the sky
Can you feel my heart is beatin' hard now baby?
Rider of the sky!
Flashin' like an arrow through, star bright!Rider of the sky ( Read more... )

Ever wonder which is really the fastest route from A to B? I'd been wondering that for the route to work. Some people use a timer to find out, others a second driver. I went with the second method two nights ago since Shaya was using her jeep, and we left my store on two completely different routes with the premise to stick pretty close to the ( Read more... )

The police never cease to amaze and confuse me. Granted, they're just people in uniform and don't even have any of the rigorous physical and psychological training of the military, but still, they have "game faces" and codes of conduct. Where am I going with this? Well, I was returning from a run while at work, and pulled up next to a blue-and- ( Read more... )

Well I'm back from Sebago. Even though I was only there for a week, it felt like a full two like it used to be. I think it's because I was a lot more outgoing than when I was younger; I actually participated a lot with my cousins and did a lot of water sports, rather than just retreat to my comp like I did when I was under 21. It's been harder to ( Read more... )

Off to Sebago! Will return on August 6th. Shaya's coming as well. This is the first time I've actually been able to make it up there in two or three years, so it'll be great to finally get back. Though the 23-hour trip isn't looking like so much fun, mostly since it won't be in my car :(
