| I'm moving back home. Yup, in October. But I haven't been able to find work. So please if you can afford it send me a little bit of money to help me out. I'm going to Uhaul my stuff back I think, and it's going to take $1000+ to get home. Or I'm just going to leave my stuff here that I don't need and ride my bike back. But I don't really feel comfortable with that. And I'd much rather bring my stuff back with me. Being my lazy boy, bed, clothes and crap of course, and my 52" TV. Please for the love of God help me out a little bit. I need to get out of here due to faimly issues at home, and I'm losing my sanity here. | | |

| Things are average. As usual. With the exception of my friend in the hospital things are just rolling by here. School is starting up again for the next semester. Rather the registration is. So I spose I might as well get that done soon. I could ride out there tomorrow if I need to. Maybe take that car if needs be. Really the most important thing I can think to do is find myself somewhere to work. I've been contemplating whether or not to come home. I know that people really want me too. But I feel like I'm needed here for a little while at least. With Gary in the hospital, My friends Dave and Peggy whos son just died, or just that with the way things are going in the world right now, at least I have somewhere with stability for a while. I think I'm going to get some classes at EAC and power through a bunch of them. Maybe find a good place to crash down in town so I can catch some early classes and a few night classes. Find a part time job or two if I have to. Whatever it turns out to be I really need to start doing something. It's only been 3 months since I was laid off but it's gone by so quickly and I really don't want everything to be like that. I hate not working.
The bowling alley has gone down hill a lot since the laid me off. I know it was more than budget reasons. I really do think I had some forces there working against me. Whether it was against me or against my Dad i don't know but that place is dreadful now. It is never clean anymore. The place looks like hell. The bathroom probably hasn't been cleaned since they got rid of me. Or at least since their last health inspection. The bowlers aren't happy anymore. Chris keeps on changing oil conditions and making it hard for everyone to bowl on. A good example. Two months ago the pattern was 38 feet long, buffed out 3 feet to 41 feet. It was a basic house shot, Top hat pattern. the outside 10 was really light oil and the inside was really heavy oil. People got used to it and anyone who was any decent of a bowler saw their average go up right away. Then he changed it to a pattern 4 feet longer and heavir on the outside. So instead of standing off the left gutter and catching the 1 board on the break point I was throwing 5-10 boards left of center depending on my night and throwing to about the 10 board. With the increase of the oil I also was able to adapt and get myself to throw with more revs on my ball. But now he changed it back to the old pattern. Now I'm standing on the left gutter again and catch the outside boards, but because of the increase of rev I am now throwing it about 7 mph faster than before. I'm not the only one who is frusterated with this. People are complaining about it all the time. But the manager won't do anything about it. This would not have happeend if I was still working there. What's worse is that he didn't say anything to us about changing it. We had plans to use about 3 patterns throughout the season but it was going to be in about 3 month increments and we were going to even go so far as to print everything out for them. My team had come from last place to damn near first, and now because of that ass we probably won't even see it once. Oh well. Before long I'll cave and just go bowl in Safford.

| So I'm up late again. I know it's not even midnight here yet but it feels really late. Always miserable at nights, my nose plugs up and breathing is crappy, and if i breath through my mouth i wake up with a sore throat. Ugh. I think I'm getting to reliant on my nyquil induced commas i've been in lately. On account of my heart palpitations and the lack of sleep i get from them i drink some nyquil and I get a good 8ish hours depending. Only problem is I'm out and I didn't make the trip to the store today. I'll have to ride up tomorrow, it'll give me another excuse to ride on more civilized roads for a change. And then I can get a picture of the jewelry store who has a sign a block off advertising it as a jewery. Oh joy I've always wanted to know what it's like to be a Jew. Any specials on circumsisions this week? Oh wow HALF OFF!!! That's AMAZING!!!
Anyhow, we ended up with a new dog today. A friend of ours got laid off (go figure right?) and so he had to move to Phoenix. However he was going to be moviing into an apartment complex and ended up not being able to keep their dog. They were allowed one pet. His woman wanted to keep the barking rat. Typical. But thank god the rat ran away, probably to wander the desert for 40 nights and 40 days before being devoured alive by a pack of coyotes. So one would think, awesome they are now able to keep the good dog. One would think, but the stupid land lady doesn't want pitbulls in her establishment. Bear in mind every pitbull I've ever known has been extremely submissive, very well mannered, and doens't do more than be pet or sleep. But the woman has some thing against them so we have one now. And what a great dog she is. Very pretty. But our other dog Satch, a cocker spaniel is going nuts. He just won't pull his nose out of her butt. Doesn't matter how many times we beat him over the head or she snaps at him. I know she's fixed and all but I think it's time we fix him, or he's going to jump the fence and before you know it we are stuck paying his child support :P
So in other news my WoW isn't working. I tired updating my Public Test Realm patch so I could tinker around on that and typically it didn't work. So then I try the normal game, and it somehow managed to mess up and I can't make it passed the log in screen. And of course Blizzards wonderful 24 hour response team is pushing about 30 hours. As the always seem to do. Why promise what you can't deliver.
Not much else to say unless I wanna start getting deep and emotional which I don't feel like doing. I'll just sit here in the shadows...which aren't really there right now as it is now 12:03 AM. I'm going to hit up youtube and find some good material to work on for my bike riding tomorrow. Going to be covering about 200 miles this weekend and wanna get the small things down a little better.

| So here's what's up with my friend Gary, just went to the hospital a couple days ago and found out what was up on his status.
February 2nd he was riding out at night and was taking a corner at probably about 50 and clipped a cow. This broke 7 of his ribs. His friend called him an ambulance and he was admitted for broken ribs. For a second you think he got off lucky. However due to inadequate care he became hypoxic. If you don't know what that is, he lost a lot of oxygen in his body and went into a comma. This could lead to severe brain damage (which he seems to have gotten away from) or organ damage. He was in a comma for a week before he came through. Things seemed great after that, he went to pysical therapy and was out walking around. Next morning he ended up vommiting blood. So they rushed him into surgery where they found something they somehow managed to overlook.
He had massive internal bleeding. His artery had ruptured that was attached to the pancreas. He had gangreen poisoning (probably from the hypoxia), his spleen had ruptured also which had spilt acid into his gut. This acid destroyed the spleen, his stomach, and some of his small instestine. In surgery they fixed up the artery and pancreas, the spleen wasn't there anymore, and his stomach was removed or what was left of it, along with the damaged small intestine. They ended up attaching his small intestine to his esophagus. Somehow he made it through the surgery. He is currently responsive, but there's no telling how things will turn. I'm sure with the beating his body has taken in the last month, if he gets another infection it'll be too much for even him. | | |
