Good story teller… Shite at grammar
So my friend Heather has been polite enough to edit the first three chapters of the novel for me. On one hand the comments and edits are completely valid and will help. On the other hand, the part of me that is emotionally attached to the story is a little heart broken, because I feel like I’ve let the readers of it suffer for my poor use of ( Read more... ) -
You were right about everything
I was asked to do a reading of one of the chapters tonight. With two client meetings, I'm not sure if I will have time tonight, but it's a great honor to be asked.
I can't help but miss the email I would send my friend Pat about it and the response that would inevitably come that would be a show of support and kick in the ass. Since the Mammojam ( Read more... ) -

Have...not will...
I had decided that I will really focus on "have" statements...not "will" statements for this year and the remainder of my life. In keeping with that, I'm proud to say that I've been going to the gym daily since Monday at 6am with my friend Ben Kennedy.
I'm proud to say that I am starting to feel the results, but more so that still want to go and am ( Read more... ) -

Leaving your side again..
Shower please wash the thoughts out of my head
Clear out my mind so I can just get be “me”
Drive two hours and try to lie
To myself and those around me
That I’m tall and brave enough
To be able to look you in the eye and not cry
I'm leaving your side again
And this moment has got my heart spinning
It’s not for the last time and it is
This life may be ( Read more... ) -

While we were in there I got to experience on of the most selfish things I've ever seen and one of the many reasons I am proud of the woman I am loosing. A former coworker came in while the four of us were there and tried to insist on Pat coming outside to enjoy the day. Let's not ignore the fact that she has four visitors in the room with her ( Read more... )
