Well I didn’t realize it until I signed into the dashboard that this would be my 125th post. I haven’t been posting as much lately and for a very poor reason. They took back the laptop that I have enjoyed for the past three years. Might as well as have taken a friggin lung.
As such, I have had to get used to a friggin IBM computer once again. I do not like Windows. At all. I miss the Mac but there is nothing to be done. It is their computer and they let me use it for three years but I wish they would have just taken the damn thing back back in December rather than let me think I could keep it. [expletive]
Oh well. C’est la vie.
Not so exciting for a 125th post huh? I guess I can jazz it up a bit and state that George the Third is well on his way to walking on his own. He walks along the couch very fast and has taken a step or two toward the couch and just yesterday i was told that he stood up on his own. =)
School is almost over for our oldest, he has exams this week. Our younger son will no doubt be near finished next week. Oh and get this, come September, George the Third will be attending afternoon Daycare so in a sense it is like he is starting school already. Where the heck did all the time go???
Oh yeah, it is the final summer of my thirties.
Regardless, it seems that the summer time, this summer might be a pivotal one for me. I am tired of not leaving my house and I want to get out and walk around. I am just reminded of so many things that can bring me down though that it is almost easier just to stay in and go online.
Beautiful scenery here but no camera to share it and no camera reminds me of the over 300 that went up in smoke when the camera got ruined. Stupid camera. Still, the scenery is enough to make me forget the materialistic nature that is living in this day and age.
My brother and I were out on the porch the other evening and one of the air conditioning vents at the school (across the street) shut down and it got very quiet, I mean extremely quiet, pin drop quiet. It was nice. It was nice that my brother and I shared that moment on a nice evening. We listened to the quiet and at the same time mentioned the creek behind the village, our one constant.
I guess it is that creek behind the village that I really wanted to write about. I remember thinking that, “…this would be a good blog entry…” but it was one of those fleeting moment thoughts that I had to dig and uncover today.
I really should write more often but I just can’t get used to this friggin computer. I miss the Mac. I miss my camera and I feel terrible that materialistic things mean so much to me.
Perhaps it is time to go and take a walk to the creek and sit beside again. I have done that pretty much every year but not the past year or two. Hmm, I can bring my fishing rod too. =)
So life is as it is for most of not all of you, it has its ups and downs and it is no different for me. I do hope you are all doing well and if I have to apologize for not posting then I do apologize. I posted something today. =)

Not just “material” … these are things you got used to, comfortable with.
Your 125th WP Post has made me a little bit sad, my friend. Don’t know why, and it is not your fault or anything.

Yeah I had the same feeling as I was writing it. It was just a sad post. Perhaps I reminded you that you have already forgotten what it was like to be in your 30’s? LOL
Damn 40th birthday, damn camera, damn computer, well okay I can live with the 40th, actually looking forward to it but the camera and the computer? It just sucks having to lose them.

LOL, would it help if I asked JR and Jane to take a pic, with their camera, of JR’s Mac… and sent it to you for your FORTIETH B-day?

The computer thing really sucks. If I had a way of phoning who ever did that I would chew them out royally.
I would let you come over and help me get to know my Mac but we seem to be separated by thousands of miles. Seems like most of my friends are a long ways away these days.
Wow I don’t want to be all depressing in your blog.
George JR. is awesome and not just because he has JR in his name. I have gotten to hear him quite a bit these last couple months. The picture you sent us over the psn was neat with all your kids.
We have gotten to play more games together this spring. RE5, Burnout, COD4 and Rock Band2. I have really enjoyed gaming with you this year.
I’m just up late and I really don’t feel like going to bed quite yet. I am glad I have you guys to help guide me on my journey.
Goodnight

Oh yes, I get that way too George. Time seems to be passing us all by in a blur and it hard to find time to just sit and take everything in.
for some reason I am reminded of the day when I realized that my childhood was over. Rather than putting it in a comment here, I think I’ll go write a blog.

No you wont Seth….
*hopes the bait works and Seth will actually write something*
I agree the thing with your computer was a bunch of crap and someone needs to get kicked for it.
Life has it’s ups and downs and all we can do is be glad we have a few friends to help us back up.

No NIAC, just no. Astard. LOL I guess I did remind you that you forgot what it was like to be in your 30’s of which I still am. Young like JR and Seth.
Jane: But they’re old.
Quiet you. LOL

George Jr. is an awesome name not only for the JR that is in it but because it is a namesake name, one that I got from my father and have passed on to my son.
It might be a depressing blog JR but only in that we have gained some perspective and since you are an old man now (like NIAC okay not THAT old, like Seth) you will look back and forward more often.
It comes with the life experience (a.k.a. getting old).
Feeling old yet JR? LOL *gets ready to collect from NIAC*

Thanks JR! Even though I don’t feel like one.
No, the blog hasn’t been finished, but it has been started!
