What's on your mind?

RIP Prince
October 30, 2000 - November 17, 2013.

He was a good dog, and will be missed by many. Even though he was just a dog, he was apart of the family from the time we got him on Christmas Day 200. He will live on in our memory, and will always hold the special place in my heart of being my first pet.

My oldest friend is now a believer. I just had a long talk with him about it.  I am no longer alone in my faith in my circle of close, in person friends.  Oh happy day.

Sorry to hear this Matt, having lost pets myself I understand. To the world they are simply a dumb animal, to you, the pet is a piece of you in some way.

The bulk of the pain goes away, the memory never does. I still miss my 2 dogs and that fuzzy turd of a cat at times (Affectionate nickname of course).  for you and your family.

Early to bed, early to rise... something something, yadda yadda.

Makes a man tired before 3pm?

Yes.

It might snow this weekend. I don't know how I feel about the fact I've never seen snow in January, but I might see it in November.

Please keep my family member in prayer today. She is in a lot of pain from an injury and the doctors did nothing but give pain meds. It seems like every day it gets worse. I think she has another appointment soon; and I just hope that they can do something to make it better rather than just attempting to mask the pain with meds.

Sounds terrible, Dandy. Praying now.

I've been really thinking about my life lately and how people see me. I think the people who know me online see a much different person than those in real life and it perplexed me. I guess in real life, I've had to be the rock of the family and minister to my friends. I'm carrying around a lot of weight and over the past few years, used the internet as a way to unload all my burdens, pain and struggles. I have a few friends who have stuck by me and helped me learn better ways to deal with things.

Some people say I'm harder on myself than others are, but I just always get this impression that most don't have a favorable opinion of me or they think I'm just trying to seek attention. But if they REALLY knew me, that's just not who I am. And if people really knew how much of a burden I bear on a daily basis, they might get me a little more.

I think we're all a little distorted online. I try not to be, though. I wish you all could know me in person.

Social interaction. I need it.
Apparently I need to make some new local friends.

That's it. We're all moving to PA.

You could do a lot worse.

That should be our state motto.

Why doesn't someone just bomb Hollywood and have done with it?

Works for me. We've got about all the good stuff we can get out of them.

And since Peter Jackson's in NZ, we can still have the Hobbit movies.

Well...I just learned my lesson. Never eat microwavable fish. Blah.

Good advice. I don't think I've ever tried it.

I don't know why there was a part of me that said, "Hmm, this is a good idea!" but it wasn't haha

That's pretty much EXACTLY how every idea I ever have ends up.  

Except I don't eat fish.

Well, we're dudes. So most of the dumb things we do always seem like good ideas before we do them
