late B-day and a leave of absence

       That time again, updating my age…yuck. At 28, both my knees are failing, arthritis in my hip hands and elbow, both shoulders are bad and my back just as bad….and now my eyesight is going….   Granted the actual b-day was 9 days ago, but I was far too busy with Bioshock 2 to even remember.
                So now what? I sit back revaluate my life, realize that I’ve failed to meet every goal I set for myself, find myself in a worse position than I was a year ago….   I know my father would say it’s all because 21 years ago, he bought me an NES…. I say its because I work in an environment where different is bad and I’m one small annoyance away from releasing my true inner Punk, tattooing myself from the neck down, piercing everything I can (aside from some ‘strategic’ locations) and dying what is left of my hair jet black.   Yes, living this poser identity of the professional is tearing me apart inside. And I guess it’s starting to show.  


Yeah, I had a similar post almost a year ago….I was hoping to say “oh, but something got better” but the only good thing I have to say is that my lovely wife has yet to realize that she married a looser and still appears to be happy and in love with me (when I'm not being a total ass).  


 


VACATION!!!!


On another note, I will be away for a while…I have a bit of prep work starting tomorrow, then Sunday, we leave on a 7 day cruise....I hope to bring back many pics and vids, but will have to upload everything when we get back since we are doing the whole trip sans internet….this will be hard, but I think I can do it….and if I must, the ship has computer access in the library. So, from Baltimore to frozen tundra of Port Canaveral, then off to Nassau and Freeport.


Auto out-

Wait a minute...I just want to understand something...you've got a great wife, a steady job(which means you are likely good or at least reasonably good at what you do), presumably a place to lay your head at night, make enough coin to take a vacation now and then and you think you suck?\r \r I'm not going to sit here and tell you to think about all the people who *really* have a fucked up life because that would probably be wasted on you(sort of like when your parents tell you there's a starving kid in china who would love to have your brussel sprouts) - but what I will say is this:\r \r More people need to learn that work is a means to an end and not an end itself. Go to work, hate your job but do it right, pose like Madonna dancing to Vogue, get the cash and then live your life when you clock out. \r \r \r \r

I know, my life doesn't exactly suck, but my issue is with me as a person, I feel like I have become less of the person I want to be. I'm not happy with myself...
