I LOVE Monday's... New week, start over new, forget about last week.
I have a lot to do this week and one of the main things I have to do is pay rent. You would figure that THAT would be the easiest thing to do, right? But it isn't. Some how they, the people I pay rent to, aren't with 'the times'. STILL on that old fashion way of a person going to and making payment at their place. You would figure in this day and age everything could be done with a click of a mouse.
CIAA..which I never heard of before was in town. College Basketball. I didn't get to enjoy the festivities, nope..none at all. The only reason for that is because I know nothing about it and I guess I was too lazy to even find out. But best believe next year I will be right at it.
Was is it that when a woman is trying to get to know a man...that she, all of a sudden just changes gears. Is it the mans fault..the way he comes across to her and at her. This happened to me. I guess the woman has already in her head what she wants said to her and if that isn't spoken...she shifts gears and gets all defensive. Your views are your views and mine's are mine's. I'm not the type of man that will just agree with you to..well, just agree if I do not feel the same way about a subject that you feel that you are completely right on. I told her that I didn't want to touch that subject. I guess it's her way of weeding out people.
A guy 'acquaintance' came and hit me up for money. I told him straight out that no and how will you pay me back if you're not working. He told me when he does find work, he will pay me back. I don't think so. Gave me the run down, a sob ass story..sorry to call it that but he knew what he was getting into from the start. I'm older than him and been there and done that. With him chasing behind women, spending what he doesn't have because he borrows...people want their money back and I guess they are calling him night and day. I gave him some advice... All those people you owe, you need to tell them the REAL deal, you aren't and don't know when you will pay them back. So, he throws at me that he is hungry. I give him a large package of dehydrated food, just add water and heat. It has everything you need in it and I keep some on hand for times like the one he is going thru. Didn't he tell me some story that he doesn't eat pork. Look at the package, it's CHICKEN!! Said something else to me, but I wasn't paying attention, it's time for him to leave. Don't come to my place without calling first.
I'm gonna try and have a positive week this week...I will see.

F*CK!! I Was Sucked Right Into It Too.
I know I have heard that there are 2 things that you JUST don't talk about. Politics and religion. Could care less about people views on politics, but religion... Hold on folks...either ya gonna love me or want to punch me right in my face after this.
The Bible as far as I know and from what I've been told was and has been written by man, men. The different books in the Bible were written over periods of time and they were handed down, interpreted by different men, So, some where along the way someone said, 'Hey, let's write this all down and pass it along.' It's like the childhood game called 'Telephone'. First person says one thing, They are The Control', example... 'I went to the store and purchased a banana and an apple.' The control tells the next person in line. That person tells the next and..etc. Okay, got it. So, after 20 people playing this game, the last person goes to the first person and tells them what the message he got at the end. The last person message will ALWAYS be different from the first person, 'The Control'. The Bible, parts of the Bible were written by men, who were NOT even there, they wrote was what was told to them, handed down to them.
Scriptures. People can quote scriptures at the drop of a hat. And, will be the first to ask you are you Saved. I say, Saved from what? They also get VERY upset when you don't call God by his name. If I chose to say, 'Higher Power', what is wrong with that? Also, if you can quote scripture at any given time to any given situation..and are always going around Blessed this and Blessed that... You are forcing your beliefs on me and I will not stand calmly by and allow you to do this.
The six elements that make up life....
http://m.livescience.com/32983-what-are-ingredients-life.html
The Church... Been there, done that. I pray every time I take a shower. Water is life. Without water you die. The shower is the best place for me to do my praying and talking with God. Normal conversation, like i'm talking to any other man..but He IS The Man, THE BIG MAN. I don't have to go into a Church in order to know God. Along with..if I am not saved, does God, or will God ever reach out and talk to me? Some are led to believe that if you aren't Saved, you will not go into the Kingdom of Heaven. I believe there is a Heaven and will continue to believe there is a Heaven but... How do we really know there is. What if when you die..that's it, you're just dead. Which brings me to...
Rapture..The Rapture. I head on the radio, this radio host said... 'When that day comes, how long do you think you can hold out..deny to that Evil Being that you deny your God. You say you will always believe in God until your last dying breath, but do you know what pain really is..can you really hold out and are willing to die for your belief in God.' To me... Most of us believe in physical pain, take pills to cure those aches and pains. But what if it's your Soul that is being attacked? Your inner being..something that you can't take a pill for. A pain that is so GREAT that it actually is tearing your Soul apart. I really took a look at that. Cutting yourself, being shot, hit by a car...oh, that's been on one level that we know of. But your Soul...do we know what THAT pain feels like? I don't and I don't ever want to have to.
In closing... If I choose to worship a rock and you choose to worship God... Does that mean we won't meet up at the same place?
You and I are to meet up one day, say Saturday. You leave from your house in your car and I leave from my house taking public transportation, a bus. I tell you what..I will be there 45 minutes BEFORE you, WAITING on you to get here.

Well..I Never, Wait...Yes I Have
Her first contact to me was about a year ago...states apart. Then, the other day, she reached out to me again.
Told me I seemed interesting all over again and that some changes...BIG changes have been in my life. Duh?!, ya think so. She gave me her number and told me to text her. Funny thing is/was, I had her number already. I told her this and then she screamed, 'what are you, some type of stalker?' Tried to put the blame all on me, but I told her something that made her think.
See, that is what I am talking about. Women have their pick and choices of men who and when they seem fit to date, get in touch with. You notice it on their FB page, all those people as friends...aren't really friends. They can sometimes what I call..'Fall Backs' Fallbacks are men, people you can fall back on, look for support, look for help when times are going hard on you. Just my opinion.
You know me...I want to meet as soon as possible. It's like when detectives are trying to solve a murder and the First 48 hours are crucial. Today's woman wants to know if a man is interested in them... They will say they will not 'chase a man'. They want to be chased. This gives them many options. Because... When a woman you were in contact before, but lost it..contacts you again...in a man's head...which by the way, women, you don't want to be in there. Inside a man's head we get this Green Light and go ALL THE FUCK IN! We don't care what you're contacting us for, all that we know is that you DID.
So, now I am at that stage of..'to see if we vibe, we click' stage. Oh, not me who stated this, this is what I've been told. Another hint that I am 'The Fall Back'. Then I get the...'I don't know if I want to be involved right now' statement. Why did you contact me? Oh, I see, you need something different, something new, huh? Well check this out....

...I Kind of Met Someone But..Haven't Met them.
Online Dating...either it's going to kill me or...drive me crazy!
..it's better, FAR better than Facebook...which I WILL say something about that later. But online dating is simple, fun and sometimes makes you wanna pull what's left of your hair out. Let me explain.
From the comfort of your home, your bathroom, tub or even toilet..you can meet male or females from all over the world. It doesn't get any simpler than that, right. 'Simple'..ah, such an easy carefree word...which gets more abused than your grandfather's 1962 Penthouse magazine, (don't ask). Www...ya at the website. Sign up, enter some info..what you're looking for, and nowadays if ya a male, you can find you another male..nothing wrong with that, but lets stick with finding us a female. Some sites have you enter a zip code..10, 20 miles radius of your zip code...ENTER. ....a Candy Store, look at ALL the sweets. Ah, but some of them might not be that good for you...and some of them are just for show. Yep...SHOW.
We as human want to love and want to be love. Where the issue(s) come in at...and I mentioned this all before, it's what we as humans call love. Remember in Junior High School how simple it was then...to get girl or boy friend. You just walked right up and talked to that person and you knew, sort of, what direction if any you were heading in. NOT online you do!! Profiles..it's what you write to 'attract' the person that you 'want' to meet. Some profiles, straight off the back, women, they say this... 'If you're looking for a Booty Call, pass my profile right on by', or...'I'm looking for my king, because I am a Queen'...yada, yada, yada. I stay FAR away from those profiles. Mostly all profiles are basically saying the same thing.. 'I'm a down to earth woman', which translates into...'I WANT THINGS MY WAY, PAMPER ME, BUY ME THINGS, PAY MY BILLS!'. Sorry, that's how I see it as. But these dating sites are a marvel unto themselves. They tell you how and where the world is heading in the future. They also say a lot, profiles, say a lot about our past too.
Take for example. 40 something woman, looking for her 'Prince' to come along and... 'Save her'. Take her away to black sanded beaches, drinking umbrella drinks and watching the sun set with the sound of waves roaring in the background, Then the sound of the waves, the surf is interrupted by 2 kinds fighting over who gets to use the sand shovel..'mommie, so and so hit me.' Her screaming at the kids to behave or she is going to 'give' them something to really cry about. Or....
The 50 something woman..these are the best. Don't get your panties in a bunch, read on. These are a work of wonder. It's 'their', 'our' time now. Kids are grown with their own kids and have moved out of the home. You would think it couldn't get or be any better..but wait. Those kids WITH Grandkids..who mind you, SAY they want to see their Grandmother... Or, it's the weekend and mom isn't doing anything special, hell, mom don't date and I want to hang out this weekend...let's see if Mom will babysit..which she ALWAYS do...and this is where 'Family means everything'...which is written in their profiles also, which I stay away from those types too. Women of this nature, the 'mothering type', still don't have time for wanting to start something in their later years of their life because the kids have kids and they have to be babysitter. Or...
...the late 30 something woman. Takes Selfies of her butt sinking on the bathroom sink showing and defining what a GREAT ass she has. True THAT. Pretty face, nice shape...a Keeper? Nope...because off camera...she has 2 kinds and 'screaming' that she is single without any kids...only to find out that she DOES have kids, which she claims they are her niece and nephew that she is taking care of because her sister is in jail or something. She too, like almost most of the women have over ONE THOUSAND friends on their profile page...which brings me to...
Women on online dating sites have it MADE. They know they look great, oh yes they do. And every male who is breathing and looking for that Special Woman will surely click that 'add' me button, hence the 1K male friends... But does she have time for them, NOPE. It's all a self gratifying moment for them, shot of sugar straight in the vein... A look at me I am STILL beautiful and men want me moment... A..if I'm having a bad day, I can always go online and look at my inbox at ALL THE MEN WHO STILL WANT ME..which makes me feel like I am STILL WANTED by mankind. Ah, but will they ever meet you, the man, a meeting..in public? Which brings me to...
NO THEY WON'T!! ... and listen, I am not a 'disgruntled employee', so to speak. No I don't expect that every woman I 'meet' online to meet me in person... But for crying out loud..why bother to set up a profile when you KNOW us men do, want and expect to meet you in person at one time or another. Then, they post 'screenshots' of your conversation with them...which personally is of BAD TASTE on HER part. But it's posted not because of what that male may have said in a PRIVATE conversation with her, it's posted for OTHER woman to see. It lets these woman know that her..she is had still does have it going on...see. they. men still want me.
(clears throat) So, why do I and countless other men STILL part take in this online dating thing? Because we can is why. ..and who knows...where it may lead.

...a Knocking At My Door...1:23 am
..thought I was dreaming, but the knock woke me up. I opened the door. Next door neighbor standing there with 37 cents and asking me for a cigarette. This has got to stop!!
Hey, I understand what it feels like when you NEED a cigarette and will do almost anything to have one. Though it never has got that bad for me, but I do know what it feels like. But when you knock on your neighbors apartment door..expect for all hell to be released upon thee.
I told building management about this situation in the past. They asked me his name, and I said, you're management, you KNOW his name already. They told me that they will handle it. Apparently not, or they did say something and this neighbor just doesn't care. He isn't the only one either.
I catch the 5:41 am bus to work. Guy comes 5 minutes before the bus arrives and always ask me for a smoke. Tells me on a Tuesday that he can't wait until Friday, payday so he can buy a pack. One time he actually said to me..when he asked for one, which I DID have one but wasn't giving him one...'I NEVER have any cigarettes.' Ever want to punch someone in the throat, to see what happens? He almost became my science experiment right then and there. On Friday, he wasn't at the bus stop. But, at the Bus Center, saw him in the store buy smokes. I ask where was he, he told me he got a ride into work. Did he offer me a cigarette after all that he has bummed from me in the past 5 weeks...NO!! So, this morning if he ask me for a cigarette, I'm going to read him the riot act.
Because I'm me...
Nope, not today...tomorrow.

Smartphone...MP3 Player...Headphones
Man evolves..okay and so do women. Jesus, I would never hear the end of THAT one. And, so does ones taste of wine, women AND music too. Somehow I manage to bring all 3 together in this post.
Music..in general. I don't know what the heck people are putting out these days and expect grown people who work hard for their money, expects us to PAY for. To me, Napster showed be listed as one of the Wonders of The World...I think 9th Wonder, I lost count. If it wasn't for Napster, my CD collection would be HUGE...wait, small. Because I would have surely returned music of today BACK to the store. Yeah I know...I'm old and just like my parents, they thought the music I listened to then was something strange and out of this world. I guess I have turned into my parents then. But The Nappie bought along something great to MY generation...we didn't have to carry around cassettes or CDs any more.. (Ta Da!!} The MP3 File.
Sony wasn't too happy with this so called MP3 file business. It saw $$$ with it's Walkman type music player. Everyone including myself had one, but this MP3 file bought on a whole new type of player. A digital player that can carry your mp3 file around with and PLAY...enter Apple. Apple KICKED down the door, stormed the building like a Brazilian Death Squad with it's portable mp3 player called the..IPOD. Straight off the front, I thought paying $1 for a song was and IS crazy...still is too. But people had their ipods with a 30 GB hard drive, loaded up with 5K worth of songs..AT ONE FREAKIN' DOLLAR A SONG!! I let that bandwagon past me by..and continue to this day. Oh, I have ipods (see picture), but..what me pay for songs? Napster, Frostwire, Limewire...and now..The torrent file. Bittorent and UTorrent...you take from others who have the file, little bits at a time and depending how many are online at the time..all those who have the file. Fast easy, quick. Which brings me to...
Listen, I could go on and on about this mp3 thingy, it's long, somewhat kind of complicated. HEADPHONES...this is what burns my asshole. One company, who I was told to try last year, does put out a GREAT set of 'head cans', affordable. But you know what, they fucked up, and I blame it on the Smartphone and here is why. People use their smartphone for music, and when you're listening to music and you get a phone call, the headset you're listening thru can switch over to accept the call. That's where the problem for me begins.
Look at your headphone, the male tip. See those rings around the plug. 2 rings are for stereo, 3 rings are for stereo and answering your phone calls plugged into your smartphone. But if you have those 3 rings plugged into a REGULAR MP3 Player, it causes one side of your earpiece to not play any music. Okay enough of that.
My mission today is Walmart. Looking for a decent MP3 Player & a decent set of headphones, OVER the ear. Went to their website and have options picked out. Will let you know.

Straight off the front, I thought paying $1 for a song was and IS crazy...still is too. But people had their ipods with a 30 GB hard drive, loaded up with 5K worth of songs..AT ONE FREAKIN' DOLLAR A SONG!! I let that bandwagon past me by..and continue to this day. Oh, I have ipods (see picture), but..what me pay for songs? Napster, Frostwire, Limewire...and now..The torrent file. Bittorent and UTorrent...you take from others who have the file, little bits at a time and depending how many are online at the time..all those who have the file. Fast easy, quick. Which brings me to...
Listen, I could go on and on about this mp3 thingy, it's long, somewhat kind of complicated. HEADPHONES...this is what burns my asshole. One company, who I was told to try last year, does put out a GREAT set of 'head cans', affordable. But you know what, they fucked up, and I blame it on the Smartphone and here is why. People use their smartphone for music, and when you're listening to music and you get a phone call, the headset you're listening thru can switch over to accept the call. That's where the problem for me begins.
Look at your headphone, the male tip. See those rings around the plug. 2 rings are for stereo, 3 rings are for stereo and answering your phone calls plugged into your smartphone. But if you have those 3 rings plugged into a REGULAR MP3 Player, it causes one side of your earpiece to not play any music. Okay enough of that.
My mission today is Walmart. Looking for a decent MP3 Player & a decent set of headphones, OVER the ear. Went to their website and have options picked out. Will let you know.

I'm NOT Gonna Do IT!!
Don't know what it is really... I mean I catch myself at times..ALL times not saying what I feel.
It's like when you are about to throw up, but I can control what I say. A simple NO will do. Touchy subject..just gonna throw it out there. ...Employment.
I've been around long enough and have worked long enough to see it all. From the Manager who KNOWS what he is doing..and but little to work with, to.. Wosah, wosah... To those who are hired in any field who sell themselves to get the job, but once hired take a whole completely different turn. It sucks when you work with people who are like that. But you're suppose to maintain a professional outlook on the whole thing.. Have the attitude of doing 'what it takes to get the job done' type attitude. Problem with that...you sometimes become the 'go to guy, person' and that isn't rewarding at all. Because...you have to DO what needs to be done and watch those who don't do..just skate along on the job. Then...at the end of the day, in the comfort of your home.. You question yourself and say...'how could you have handled that much better?'
I'm a Worker, I WORK..and I am THE BEST at what I do. Though some say, well anyone can do what I do..true...but would you enjoy doing it and all that comes with doing it. What's that, you may ask. Being on time, doing on time and being ab;e to adjust to any FUCK UPS that may and ALWAYS come along. It's called Thinking on Your Feet. I'm an expert at that. Also..having the tools to DO what's needed to be done. I'm great at being a Trainer...give me your guidelines and it WILL be done. See..I know what is needed to do my job, and without the tools and the guidance that is needed to do this job from the VERY beginning..along the line somewhere...a 'whatever attitude' will arise. I will MAKE sure that DOES NOT happen. One thing that will ALWAYS be in my Training...'If YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AT ANYTIME, ASK ME!!' My experience is...if you don't ask questions, you're NOT interested in the job.
So, in I go today and see what Shit Storm I MAY have created. I say.. The sun always comes out after a storm...but not right away, but it does and have to.

I don't know what this means, but... I got an email from USC, the college. Said that it's been looking at my blog, this and they want me to answer some questions..a survey. One of the things they FIRST asked for was my birth date....DELETE!! Why would you need that? I smell Student Loan for some one.
Different State...different time and a WHOLE lot of shit has happened too. Not going to get into it..well, not right now but... I just want to try and put that whole madness behind me. So far things have been moving in the right direction.
STILL looking for HER..my ME..who thinks, acts just like ME. It's not an all out search. It's..eh, whatever. Ask a couple of questions, look at her reaction... If she acts like she has a stick up her ass... If she acts like she is God's gift t Mankind... I move on.
Refusing to accept BS basically. I mean...my life is my life. If she wants to be a part of it, fine. Not gonna twist your arm either.
Until next time...which I am REALLY going to try to stay up.
