Good Things

The last few days have been a time of reflection. I'm not the same man I was nine months ago - or I am, but finally in the right mind to say "Fuck you, World" and start coming into my own. What I thought was an ominous dark cloud overhead, was basically my inability (previously) to recognize or pursue greater things in my life. I'd downplay the positive things & allow myself to stay depressed. Well, lately, things have been picking up, and I'm feeling pretty fucking good for the first tme in a while.

I started seeing a Chiropractor, since I found out my insurance covers it. The man is a fucking miracle worker, and I've been having less issues with my neck & lower back.

My friend Crystal got married a couple weeks ago. The wedding was awesome! It was a rock wedding - the ceremony music was instrumental versions of Guns N Roses or Metallica songs, the passages read were song lyrics, and a local cover band got back together just to perform the wedding - which, ironically, my karaoke buddy Joe ran the sound board for them. I also introduced the bride & groom. There were other shenanigans, but I was too drunk to remember.

My sister announced she's pregnant again, with #3. One of my favorite things in this life is being an Uncle. I love the shit out of my nephews, and the thought of another one has me fucking soaring right now!

I have a couple other things in the works. My buddy Jax is starting up a gaming podcast and asked if I'd be a part of it. I never podcasted before, so it'll be a new experience... but I'm looking forward to it. Also, I'm going to be taking on some additional work. My aunt & uncle run an international sprinkler supply company, and they haven't really branched out yet where social media is concerned. They want to bring me aboard to set up & run their social media outlets - Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. We're supposed to talk more this weekend. I'm excited.

Anyway, I have to work in the morning, so I need to drag my tired fucking ass to bed. Stay classy, San Diego.

I'm glad things are looking up, Jedi, folks tend to stagnate into rage or depression if there's nothing positive on the horizon. It sounds like you are about to become very busy...be cautious and try not to overextend yourself trying to help others. You still have to take time for yourself, amigo.

Thanks Jones. I won't lie, though - I did stagnate into depression for awhile there. I was able to pull myself out of it, with the help of a couple friends who are some persistent motherfuckers. This could've been a much longer blog, had I not been falling asleep at the keyboard while writing it.
