Running on Fumes

I'm sitting here this morning and ready to type a 2nd blog entry. Let me just say, not only have I not had any sleep, but I worked all night, and also managed to get a workout in. I'm doing anything I can to keep my brain focused on anything other than the fact that I probably need sleep. I know that as soon as I lay my head down on a pillow or couch that I will be out like like a light (And, I actually just yawned while typing that sentence)

So, with that in mind, hi. I bought a Nintendo Wii (again) this weekend. I love the Wii, and wish I never sold my old one in the first place. I really want the new Tiger Woods game, and maybe Mario, lol.

I also that same little cousin, Jewels, to see the new Transformers movie. She was just excited as I was to see it! We went on opening day and saw it on IMAX. And boy, was it awesome. Probably more action-packed than the first one. The only thing I didn't like were those idiot twins, but they were only there in small doses, so it didn't bother me too much. All in all, I would DEFINITELY go see it again.

I've started working out again, lately. I'm already starting to feel better. The 2nd workout this morning seemed to be much easier than the first one. I plan on working out every other night after work, and then swimming on a fairly regular basis this summer. I want to get healthier and want to get fit for the amount of walking I'll be doing in the dry Vegas heat in September. I also need to buy a good new pair of walking shoes; if anyone has any suggestions please let me know what to buy.

Not going to lie, I've been pretty down lately. Obviously you know the big part of it from the previous post. But, there are other things, as well. I guess the fact that I'm single again is finally hitting me? I mean, I don't really miss Nicole, I just kinda miss the idea of her? If that makes any sense? I guess after being able to hug and kiss the one you love for a good long time, only to have that ripped out right from under you without warning, you kinda still feel that urge to want to be able to hold SOMEONE and kiss SOMEONE. But, at the sametime, it can't be ANYONE. It has to be someone you love, you know? Idk, maybe I'm just rambling. Hopefully, this exercising will pick me back up. I haven't really had much self-confidence lately. Heck, and why should I? I am the definition of average. I don't really have any special traits or features that stand out compared to most other people. Hopefully losing weight, becoming more active physically, will give me a little bit more gusto to be more positive about myself.

I'm thinking about getting my hair cut. Because it definitely needs at least a trim. The thing is, I never know if I should get the shorter hair cut or grow it out. I always ask people's opinions because I have no idea what looks best, but noone ever gives me an answer. People are frustrating :-P

Well, I'm dosing off. I'm sure I'll have more to talk about once I wake up.

The First Entry

So, I'm trying out this blogging thing. I honestly don't see the point. My life isn't really that interesting and noone is really going to read this anyway. Not to mention, it'll probably be mostly me complaining about things and acting like a big baby..........but isn't that what the internet's all about? So, here we go.


I recently got a new job. It's my first real full-time job. And, I must say, I really couldn't have hit the jackpot more than what I did with this job. With this economy, and the fact that I'm a broke college kid with not much work experience compared to those older than me, it's truly a miracle that I got it. My cousin actually works there; he's the one that offered me a job. The pay is great. In 3 weeks, I've been able to pay off my debts from last semester, while at the same time spend a little money on myself and go have fun without worrying too much about my bank account. It kinda sucks having to work nights. The hours are M-F 8PM-4AM, but you know, I can't really complain. I stay up that late anyway during the summer, might as well get paid for working. Oh, and that's the best part........I work from home. I never have to leave the house. I could work butt-ass naked if I wanted to, and yes, please, enjoy that visual.

Really the only thing not going well in my life is the fact that Nicole shit-canned me.....again. Some girlfriend she is, right? We had been fighting for the past month, but it was over silly stuff. All couples fight over silly stuff, don't they? Basically what happened is that we spent pretty much all of May together. Which is great, I loved spending time with her. It's just that there were times that I would want some me-time to play videogames or watch a ballgame, and she would get all pissy and make me feel like crap because I was choosing my "juvenile" videogames and TV over her. So, after her graduation party, I told her that I just needed to get away, but only for like a couple of days. She gets all uppedy and calls me "immature" and all that, and then proceeds to not talk to me in texts or over the phone for about the next 3 weeks. Then, last thursday, we were supposed to go eat lunch, but she cancelled on me and broke up with me. What's weird is that it didn't effect me as much as it had the other 2 times she's done that. I guess after a while you just get immune to it, eh? The only thing that really pissed me off is that she didn't have the guts to tell me to my face; she did it through a text. Tell me that's not disrespectful.

I don't know. It was getting to the point that she was always right and I was always wrong, no matter the circumstance. She was always so defensive, but always quick to shoot me down for mistakes I made. Plus, she would always make me feel like I was a bad boyfriend, when I did everything for her. I went to her choir concerts, I went to her musicals, I drove her around everywhere she needed to go when she didn't have a car, I took her out many times, I bought her pretty much anything she wanted, I helped her with homework, I bought her dinners, and more. And I don't mind that at all! That's what boyfriends are supposed to do, right? But she would hardly ever say thank you, and would never acknowledge those things much at all. I wish she wouldn't have acted like that. I loved that girl.

Switching gears, I have a trip coming up! 75 days, 18 hours, 50 minutes, and 30 seconds as of right now! I'm heading out to Vegas with my grandparents in Cincinnati for my 21st birthday in September. We're flying out the night before and then at midnight I'm playing. It'll be my 4th time out in Vegas, and yet I'm still pumped. We bought our tickets this past weekend, and will be getting our room situated as the day draws closer. I can't wait. I LOVE Las Vegas, and I'm sure I've been bugging people about it on Facebook and in person with all my ridiculous excitement and whatnot, but I don't care. Things like this never happen for me. So I think I have a right to be excited.

Wow, that was actually a pretty long blog! I might have to just keep doing this (8 months later and watch this be my only entry, haha)
