Face to Face - Disconnected

Every time I hear this song, I freeze... because the lyrics are so true to me. There is this one particular part of the song that I love singing along with it goes like this…

Trust is something that comes easy

When you've never been a victim

I love it. Something about it is so touching to me, but I have to say, there are a few songs that do that to me. Where I catch a couple of the lyrics and they just stick… they rhythm, the words, the sentiment. It’s great!

Well it’s been a busy few weeks, hence my lack of participation – Amy turned 25 on Wednesday 9/27 – we took her out to P.F. Changs… mmm good food. I love there banana spring rolls with vanilla ice cream… I’m a sucker for desserts. Work has been fairly busy, we have a brainstorming session scheduled off site next week, I’m really looking forward to it. It’s a nice hotel, and it should be a relaxing atmosphere. We’ll see. Now, managerial accounting is kicking my arse! Don’t know why I can’t get this shit… but it sure is making me think…oh wait- that is what school does right? Regardless… it’s getting better.

I went to Vegas last weekend for an early surprise b-day gift for Amy’s mom (they share the same birth date). She was completely shocked. We drove up there Thursday night and got there at around midnight…. She didn’t see us till the next morning. It was great… all I heard was screaming and squealing at like 6am cause she saw Amy. The rest of the time we just relaxed and literally chilled like veggies watching day time TV and movies. I loved it…. Plus her parents always spoil me cause I’m the “guest”… he he
Well I’m off to the gym… got work off those spring rolls I had… or they WILL turn into rolls! LOL

Happy thought for the day – I found who sells Reisling wine near my house… I will be picking up a couple bottles after work!

Nothing too exciting..

Nothing too exciting these past couple of days. My friends and I went out to the Ivar in Hollywood on Friday… quite a night – let me just say, by the end of the night Amy and I were breaking up a guy fight, Ivonne’s friend screamed at us, I check his ass, Christine was passed out in the back seat of my truck, and I crawled into bed at 4:30am. (sigh) good times, good times!

Well again nothing too exciting this week, I’ve been hitting the gym on a regular basis, so I am back on my routine…. Plus I’m sure it helps, that the hard work has been paying off. Started a new class… Managerial Accounting… not as bad as I thought… mainly accounting principles and what not.

My aunt flew back to Guatemala last week, I gotta admit, although it was a pain to drive her around, I kinda miss her. I wish she, my uncle, and my cousins would just move out here… they might as well – apparently it’s way dangerous over there and as it is they are struggling financially…. Well regardless of what I think, I am sure they know what they are doing.

I spoke to my dad this weekend too. I’d have to say, it’s the longest conversation I’ve had with him via phone ever… a whopping 22 minutes. I was shocked. It was good thought, we just chatted about everything. I’m thinking about visiting him next year… maybe around May or June… my only dilemma is that I would have to forgo my Europe trip… oh, decisions – decisions.

On another note, I’m looking into purchasing a house…. Or condo… just something to call my own, with the market leveling off, I think this might be a good time. I’m just looking though… just curious to see what I can afford – I guess. We’ll see, though.

Well that’s about it for now… my good note for the day… “The Last Kiss” comes out this Friday. I am off to buy tickets now!

Meet Joe Black

A quote from Meet Joe Black. It's a fascinating movie-

William Parrish - Love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? Fall head over heels. I say find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart. I'm not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived.

It truly is a great movie.
