So I am finaly moving out of my parents house... thank God! Don't get me wrong, I love my parents and get along with them wonderfully, but I only moved in as a temporary thing. I am employed, the bills are paid off, and I have plenty in the bank (see: being single), so I moved in with a couple of friends into a house in Renton. It is close to the 405, and only 5 exits from I-5. It is only a couple of min. closer to work. It is nice to be moved out and I can't wait to finish getting settled and fully unpacked.
Things have been on the up lately. I haven't been depressed in weeks and Norwescon was a couple of weeks ago, which was f-ing fun as hell. I hope everyone is doing well and I am excited that Summer is around the corner.

Well, first off, my dad just got out of surgery for his throat. They removed the cancer on his vocal cords, but they don't know if it will return or not. They can't do radiation because he has already had it done once. Hopefully it is taken care of for good this time, but time will only tell. Currently, the doctor told him he is on voice rest for 5 days. He is not suppose to talk for 5 days... how fucked up. I would have a tough one with that one.

Those of you who know me well, might know that I am not one to dump my bad feelings on others. And, this post is not intended to be about that either. I am just updating everyone where things are at right now.
The first bit of bad news is about Cassie and I. After a 6 month great relationship together, Cassie called me on Thursday 2/16 and told me it was over. I will not go into details about it here. If you want to call me and ask, I will give you a basic explanation on what happen. If she wants to explain it on her LJ, then it is her business to do so, but I did not want to post her personal business for just anyone to see. I will state that it did not involve either one of us being faithful or the want of another person.
The second bit of news is that Allexia, some of you might know her as Bethany, is currently in ICU. I just found about about this today. Lets all keep our hearts and prayers wishing her a fast recovery. Again, I will not go into details because I will respect her privacy on the matter. As it stands right know, the details are not completely filled in for me either.
The last bit of bad news is in regards to my father. My parents explained to me that they found another lump in my dads throat. He had complications over the summer with a hoarse throat and the doctors found a lump in his throat when he went in to get it looked at. The last time this happened, they treated him for it with radiation and found no traces of cancer at the time. I was informed that he is going in for surgery on Tuesday 2/21.
Well, as you can see there is a lot going on right now. I wish I had some good news to talk about right now, and I hope I will have some good news in a few days.
Take care all, and I will update everyone later.
UPDATE:
Allexia is doing much better. She went home on Sunday and is recovering well. I didn't want anyone to worry about her, so I wanted to make sure everyone was update on her situation. |

Interesting. While I found most of it to be true, I figured I might be a little more adventurous than that. I will say that the high score on partner focus was pretty accurate. I don't know how aggressive I really am though.

There is just no limit to the sh*t that is made for LJ. Well, here is another. I know you want to write on my wall. I played around with it before posting it here and there is no filter or limit on what you can write on these. Just click on the picture if you want to write something.
Have fun, it is completely anonymous. :)
I will warn you ahead of time, it doesn't seem to show symbols very well ( -, +, =, ', etc.).

Ok, so I ripped this idea off from someone elses random LJ. It was kinda interesting, but I think I would find other people's answers more interesting. Well, here it goes...
1) What was the first song you remember hearing and enjoying on the radio?
Oh god, I know it would be something from the 80's. Sadly enough, I am sure it was something by Michael Jackson. He was the shit back in the day. MJ today... no comment.
2) If you could only listen to five CDs for a year, which five would they be? (Boxed sets can count as one CD. Sigh.)
1. Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth
2. Nine Inch Nails - Broken
3. Nine Inch Nails - The Fragil
4. Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
5. Green Day - American Idiot
(Ok, I realize that I have a lot of NIN on there, but I guess, if it is only 5 CDs for an entire year, those would endure me the longest. Sadly, I would have to listen to the radio a LOT more.)
3) What was your favorite year, music-wise?
I would have to say 1997. It was the year I graduated HS and a lot of my favorite music came from around then.
4) If you could witness one historical music event through all time, what would you pick, and why?
Well, to be honest I would probably want to listen to something amazing and historical like the first public playing of the 5th Symphany by Beethoven. That would just be amazing and awe inspiring.
5) Do you have a song that never fails to cheer you up? What is it and why does it do that for you?
Well, I don't know about never failing, but oddly enough the song "Dancing with Myself" by Billy Idol seems to always make me sing along in good spirits. haha I so rarely listen to 80's music anymore, though.
Ok, now I am curious what everyone else's answers are. And if you read all that crap... you have to answer! (for some reason that made me think of the last rule of Fight Club... "If this is your first night at Fight Club, then you have to fight.") |

Well, last night (Saturday) I went to the Mercury as I mentioned earlier. Only 4 out of the 10 people who said they were coming actualy came out. Oh well, I had an awesome time still. Cassie came out wearing a smoking hot outfit for me. She wore fishnet stockings, a one shoulder mid-riff shirt, and a mini skirt. My friend Josh showed up, which was cool since I don't seem him very often. Josh, by the way, is also Bethany's (![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) symber's) cousin. Aga and Vinny also came to the club, which Aga usualy never does on Saturdays, and they brought me flowers, which was really nice of them. I blushed... I have never been given flowers before. Aga told me I had to bring her red roses for her birthday in December now. hehe
Bottom line (so I don't make this a retarded long post like I normaly do) I had a great time last night. |

Thursday was my birthday. I celebrated Thursday with dinner with my girlfriend and my family. Cassie (cassandra87791), mom, dad, my brother, his girlfriend, and his girlfriend's kid came out to dinner. The food was great and the company was even better; I love Anthony's Homeport. I had a great birthday. It was also the first time that Cassie meet my parents and my brother. Everyone seemed to warm up to her, which I knew they would. She is a great person and I knew they would see that right away. My mom, being a RN, enjoyed talking shop with Cassie, since she is a CNA.
Friday I spent the day with Cassie, just the two of us. We went and watched two movies at the theater. We started off watching the Wedding Crashers (which was funny btw) and proceeded to watch Transporter 2 shortly thereafter. I was really looking forward to watching Transporter 2, since I like the first one. It was entertaining, but the action was ridiculously exaggerated. I mean, common, who survives a plane crash into water while still standing. That was only one of many retarded action sequences. I still kind of enjoyed the majority of the movie. Anyway, I digress. After the movies, Cassie and I got some teriyaki take out and at it at the Redondo Park. It was a great setting. Redondo is on the water and the sun was just setting.
Oh, but that is not all. Day 3 of Jared's birthday is tonight at the Mercury. I called a bunch of people to come out, but some people never even bothered to return my call. EDIT: About half the people who did not return my call, called me later today. I guess I should have not underestimated the power of the last minute phone call. I know I do the same thing and should expect nothing less. I know they do not read LJ, but I am glad to hear from that and will be happy to see them out tonight. For those of you that are coming, I will see you tonight. For those of you who are not, talk to you later and enjoy your weekend.
PS. I am tired so excuse how poorly written this is. Also, if I did not call you, then I am sorry. I had a shit-ton of people to call and it was hard to keep track of whom I had yet to call. <3 |

Cassie (aka cassandra87791) and I had a wonderful weekend together. I had a blast from Friday night at The Mercury up to the point where I drove her back to her car on Sunday. We did a little bit of everything it seems this weekend. We just did far to much to write down. A few highlights are meeting her parents, meeting her chatter-box sister (hehe she was nice though), and hanging out with two of her friends. I had a lot of fun... she has great friends and a great family. Her and I are no longer dating, by the way. Relationships > Dating. Cassie was officialy promoted from "Cassie the amazing chick" to "Cassie my amazing girlfriend." While Cassie was talking to her friend on the phone on Sunday, she mentioned that I was her boyfriend. -- LOL -- I am glad she informed me of this little change in our dating dynamics. I was laughing about it, but I was happy she said so. OF COURSE, I had to give her crap about it though. :) Interesting, apparently I can make my own moods in LJ. Learn something new every time I make a new LJ post.
And a quick funny link for your enjoyment. NOT WORK SAFE!

Had an awesome night with cassandra87791. I cannot think of how long it’s been since I had so many laughs in one evening. I laughed so much that I thought my face was going to start tingling due to lack of oxygen. There is something to be said about someone you can go out with and have such a fun time in any setting. To quote Josh Billings, "Laughter is the sensation of feeling good all over and showing it principally in one place."
Lastly, a little something for her. She will get it (and, no, it's not dirty). :)

Ok, I almost should have seen this coming. But then again, who really can. I had an awful day on Wednesday/night. And with ever bad day, there comes a good day. Thursday was that day. Thursday WAS FUCKING AWESOME! HA HA HA
Ok, so I start the day off returning like 4 calls from people that called me while I was sleeping. I already started the day off with people who love me. He he he, I say that whenever I get a lot of calls in one day. Anyway, so I decide to spend the day with my friend Adam. We go out to an elementary school near his house and play frisbee. It was a beautiful day out and frisbee was fun. I also got a chance to talk to him about what I wanted to write yesterday and just get a bunch of crap off my chest (not literally, eww gross!). He gave me some advice as best as he could, and made me feel better. After frisbee, I said that the big toy (aka playground) was beckoning me while we were playing. So we hit it up for a few min. and did some more talking then. Good times.
After frisbee and the big toy at the elementary school, we decide to go out for milkshakes. I was craving milkshakes from this burger place that makes shakes with awesome ice cream and real fruit. My blueberry shake was... the bomb! It was soo good. After shakes we decide to rent a movie. Off to Blockbuster Video we go. While there, the only movie we really wanted to see was Kung Fu Hustle. Well, they were all out of it, so I decide to ask the lady behind the counter. She didn't have any so she checked the return box. While she had her head in the return box, a kid walks by and drops in a movie. I tell Adam, "watch that be our movie right there." Guess what? I was right!
So we go back to his place and watch the movie. It was funny as hell and highly entertaining. After the movie, I head home to change. I had a date with an amazingly hot chick to get ready for.
On my way home I call up my friend Patty. Patty was this girl I dated back in high school for three years. She was my high school sweatheart and my frist love and my frist everything. After her and I broke up, we didn't talk to each other for seven years. Well, we recently located one another and started talking and we have hung out twice since then. Don't get me wrong, we are not trying to get back together. She is happily married and she has a daughter. Patty is just someone that meant a lot to me and it means a lot to me to try and be friends. So anyway, enough background story on Patty. I call her up and she is graduating in a few weeks. So her and I make plans to hang out again in a few weeks. Right on. That just lifted my spirits some more.
I get changed, and I am looking my best. I am dressed to impress if you will. I go meet her for our date and she is looking smoking hot. We go out for drinks and dancing. She had to work late that night so we didn't have much for options. And, in all actuality, we were just going out for drinks and I never mentioned anything about a date... I was playing it safe. So we have a few drinks, we are talking, dancing, and we are having a great time. We leave the club and decide to go for a walk. More talking and more walking later, I take her back to her car and kiss her goodnight. AWESOME! She then lets me know that she will be gone for the weekend, but she wants me to call her Monday to set up another date. CHA-MOTHERFUCKING-CHING! I cannot think of a better way to top off a wonderful day. This chick is awesome and I am looking forward to seeing her again next week.
Wow, ok, I guess that post was a little long. I just had such a great day and I wanted to talk about it. Besides, I didn't want to give off the impression from the other day that I was a depressed person. I am usually in good spirits.
Well, I am off to bed. It is REALLY late.
PEACE! |

Sigh, I can write and write, but honestly, I cannot publish it. There is so much I would like to say, but there are two truths when it comes to honesty. Truth (fact) number 1, anything I say or do will always come back to kick me in the ass. This includes anything I say, do, or write. As much as I love every one of my friends, I come from a large circle of friends, so what is said from one friend to another can go pretty fucking far. End result being I have a lot of friends and things can be spread about me pretty damn quick. Second, I have a problem with opening up to someone. And that is ANYONE. I am sorry to say, and I LOVE <3 all of my friends, but I feel I can never open up to anyone fully. I am sure I am not the sole person on the planet that feels this way, but there comes a time where you just come to the realization that people just stop listening to what you have to say. I try to avoid this threshold. If you speak your mind enough, there is just a point where you cross over the point where people are listening to what you have to say and when they are just waiting for thier turn to talk. FUCK THAT. I use to open up to people, but people just stopped listening. I fault no one for this. It is basic human nature and the survival of our own sanity.
GD it all, I have no idea why I just wrote all this without any self conseltation. I guess in its own minor way it is thereputic. He he, odd way to put the fact that I semi-opened up without really opening up. Fuck it all, this probably doesn't make sense to most people who read this. Oh wait, I almost forgot that no one will probably read this shit anyway. Catch 22, I can post stuff about myself and there are 2 possible situations. Sinerio 1 is everyone and thier damn dog from my social group will know every little problem about me (and yes we all have our only little issues). Sinerio 2 is no one reads this, I get to post whatever is on my mind to get it off my chest, and no one reads it nor cares. Since sinerio 1 is worse than sinerio 2, you get this vague statement that freely flows from me. We are all missunderstood. Oh well, fuck it. Peace and love to all, I am going to bed.
Bottom line for what is on my mind...
The meaning to all things is to love and be loved. Take it what you will. |
