The End

So tomorrow will be the last day that I will be required to post a daily blog for my journal in my English Composition class at school. I will be happy when I am no longer required to post a daily blog. It has been very difficult some nights to think about something to post about. I have been really challenged to find something to write about on some nights. I may keep posting to this blog after I am no longer required to but I don't know for certain yet. I do know that if i continue to post a blog it will not be a daily event like it has been lately. It may be only once a week or maybe several times a week but I seriously doubt I will continue to post daily. I'm not saying I don't like posting my blog, I just don't lead an interesting enough life to be worth posting about daily. Only time will tell what the future holds for this blog after my journal assignment is completed.

I'm Free

I was organizing my file cabinet the other day and I ran across this poem that I had copied down from somewhere. I know it talks about loss and death but I just thought I would share it.

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard him call,
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day
to laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I found that place at the close of the day.

If my parting has left a void,
then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah, yes, these things, I too, will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow.
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much.
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.

Ex-boyfriend's

My girlfriend's ex-boyfriend is trying to cause trouble between my girlfriend and myself right now and what's worse is that my girlfriend's so called friend is siding with him about this. They are saying alot of lies about our relationship trying to stir things up. I don't believe what they are saying and neither does my girlfriend. The problem is that Jennifer's friend that she is staying with, and is now siding with the ex, has invited the ex to stay with them at the apartment. So now they are teaming together and trying to tell her all sorts of lies about my and the way I am treating her. She knows I am not like that, it's just frustrating that he won't let things go and accept the fact that she doesn't want to be with her anymore. Regardless of whether they convince her that I am not the right guy for her. She still wants nothing to do with him. I swear if I had a vehicle right now I would travel up to Lebanon right now and go get her and bring her back her. I would also take a baseball bat to that idiot of a ex and beat the living crap out of him. Possibly even her friend as well if it wasn't a female. I won't hit a female. I just wish they would leave us alone and let us live our lives in peace. Only time will tell what will happen now.

My Close Friends

Fight Night

Well the Cage fights were tonight and all in all they were pretty good. Extreme Hate Frequency was really good as well. EHF played a full 30 minute set before the fights took place and it was pretty cool. After that there was a color guard to present the flag and have our national anthem sang. Then all the fighters were introduced and only brawl was started during all that. Of coarse as with any type of fighting like this there were the ring girls to announce the different rounds for the fights. Although most fights didn't get past the first round and sometimes even past the first minute. There were 14 fights in all at this event. There was even an intermission after about the 9th fight. During the intermission Extreme Hate Frequency played another 4 songs. I didn't watch the second half of the fighting because my friend and her boyfriend were having some minor issues with each other. So Jennifer and I went out and talked with my friend Danielle until her boyfriend finished up what he was doing with the band. He helps set up and tear down their stage setup. We all sat around talking until he was done and then left. By this time the fights were over as well. After we left we went by Burger King for some food and then Danielle and her boyfriend brought Jennifer and myself back here to my house. All in all we had a really great time and enjoyed ourselves immensely.

Enevitable

Well the worst thing that could happen has happened tonight. Mom's dog Honie was struck by a car earlier this evening. I'm not sure how she managed to get out or how she managed to get free, I just know that it happened. I had gone to the 8:00 pm showing of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen at the Palace with my girlfriend Jennifer when I receive a call from my sister say that Honie had been hit and they couldn't find her. Jennifer and I immediately left and headed back to the house to help look for her. We were almost home when I receive another call from my sister telling me that they had found Honie. When I get home I found out that she had been struck on the head and was bleeding a little bit around the eyes. My sister got a hold of our vet that we use and was able to take Honie in to see him tonight shortly after we got home. My sister, her girlfriend, and my mom all took her to see the vet. Well in the long run Honie was doing fine and was given several shots to help her out and was sent home with some medication and some cream to put on her as needed. She is now laying with my mom on her bed and resting peacefully. I hope this has scared her enough to not try and run off for a while, but we will just have to wait and see.

Cage Fighting

I have been invited by a good friend of mine to go see some cage fights on Saturday evening. I have decided to go and have in turn invited my girlfriend to go with me and she has agreed. I am also looking forward to hearing the bands that will be playing before the fights as well. They are pretty heavy metal in their music but I like it. I have watched UFC fights on Spike tv before and I really liked watching them, I thought they were pretty cool. I know I could never do that type of fighting but it's still fun to watch. I will also be glad to be able to spend some time with my girlfriend as well. It's kinda hard for us to spend together right now with her still living in Lebanon for the moment and me living here in Springfield. That will change though when she moves down here to Springfield and away from Lebanon. I am glad that we can talk on the phone and text as much as we do though so at least we are still able to stay in contact even when it's several weeks between visits. All in all this weekend promises to be a really fun and exciting weekend. I am really looking forward to it.
