It certainly has been a rough couple of weeks. Last week judy went away to a conference and i hardly spoke to her at all. It's been rough. I love talking to judy every day, and when it doesn't happen I get cranky. It also worries me when I don't hear from her and she's far away because I never know if she's ok or not. I know I shouldn't worry, but that's just my personality, I guess, or maybe it's naturaly to worry about the ones you love when you can't be with them?
This week? Well, let's just say I blew my top at people who didn't deserve it. However, I'm not too proud to apologize, and I did just that. I just hope my apologies will be accepted.
I was going to go into more detail, but that's probably not a good or smart thing right now. I'll just deal with the situation(s) as they arise.

Southwest Airlines ! Love it!
I'm not a mom, obviously, but I do fly Southwest w/family, and we do a lot of travel in the late spring and summer. When you live over 1,000 miles from relatives, sometimes you just gotta do that!
So, I'm entering this contest to try to win free family 4-pack of tickets on Southwest airlines, which is my favorite airline, seriously! Have flown any others lately? uggh...
Anyway. Enjoy, and thanks for reading! Sorry I haven't updated in a while, it's been super busy here-- you know, planning travel for the summer and stuff!

Simplifying
One step at a time
removing e-mail accounts-- yahoo and hotmail-- and "unprofessional" gmail account will now be used for stuff like signing up for stupid stuff that makes you register on the interwebz (stuff like social networks, etc.).
trying to eat better and healthier-- this is more difficult.
ok, that's two steps. hopefully more to follow shortly!

A month later...
Wow! It's been a month since the last time I wrote something! That's a long time for me!
Anyway, what's happened since then?
Judy had surgery right before Christmas. Nothing major, just to see if her endometriosis was back, which it isn't. She had a fairly quick recovery. :-) Happiness!
Christmas was nice. I got a new video camera, and Judy got a new digital still camera (also takes video). Of course Judy got her Xbox 360 too! We've been playing Movie Scene It! and Fable II, plus a couple of games we downloaded. Super cool! I also got some new clothes for work and a new wallet and some games and stuff :-)
New Year's was kind of uneventful. We stayed home w/our friend Laura who came to visit from Pennsylvania! That was cool. Laura's fun :-)
The Winterguard had its first show this past weekend. We did pretty well with that, I think. Basically it's been a nice month or so. :-D That's my update!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
words
cannot express
my deep feelings
of total and utter
frustration at this very moment
I don't want to
take it out
on anyone
though.
Today
has been
a most horribly
stressful and thought provoking
day. One I hope I
never need to
experience again
ever.
I
should realize
it's not about
me personally, or rather
it's not about making me
feel like a sucker
but I do
feel like
that
Give
an inch
they will take
a mile and another
and so on until they
have become so distant
there's no point
in trying
anymore.

Last month of the year
Well, the last month (and a few days) of the year have arrived! It's been quite a tumultuous 2008!
In February I lost my job-- one I really enjoyed! In April I found a new job-- one I didn't enjoy, but it is growing on me, and I do it well.
Friendships were lost, but new ones made. That hasn't happened to me in a long time. Since college, I'd say... but as the saying goes "good riddance to bad rubbish" and I'll add "and to high school mentalities!"
I've started a bootstrap non-profit (ATX Winterguard) that is currently operating in the black, is gaining notice around the area, and will hopefully continue to be strong and productive in the goals I've set out. I've hired an all-volunteer staff that is amazing, and I wouldn't trade them for anything! My goal is to be able to pay them next year!
Judy and I are still married and still going strong. I love her so much! I wish I could let her know just how much she means to me, but I'll never be able to find words that express it well enough. Even I'm slightly amazed that we're still together, given my previous track record with relationships! I knew she was, and will continue to be, the one true love of my life. :-)
Thank you all for your support and words of encouragement so far this year!
