Johnny go get your gun

This post is one not just for the few that ask for it but more as an attempt to stay awake in my night class, yes that's right I am blogging in an attempt to appear to be taking notes!
So to start I am ready to rip my tooth out I can't get it fix until may, or so I am told by my insurance, but I am to the point with one of them that I may just find a place to fix it.
Any way now that, that is over with.
SCHOOL!!!! It's class is the worst, just in all aspects, well almost all; obviously the important issue has to be addressed - yes there is one (only one) attractive girl in the class. But in a 3 hour class late at night after being up for 24 hours I'm more likely to sleep than to talk to her, though she does happen to be sitting by me tonight.
Being here on campus all day I keep realizing why I hate the setup of the college so badly. For once in a long time I was in the mood to maybe meet someone new and have a conversation but no, it's not possible here. Everyone is so stand offish, every one scuttles from class to class as quickly as possible with heads down to try and avoid the creepy watchers perched on the edges of the halls just watching everyone. But THERE you finally see a cute girl that looks approachable, as you walk up ... Oh wait what's that ... Yup just what I thought, a ring she's married and doesn't have to worry about meeting new people. And so, yet again you awkwardly change your direction or act like you are walking to the seat or bathroom behind her. This makes for a very frustrating and annoying day, so, as Derek can attest, this is something most people try to deal with.
At this moment in class we are learning about the amount of cotton produced by Britain between 1820 and 1860, with his colorful knock off light saber the insanely droll professor is trying to excite the class that the production of cotton would be envied by modern day China. Look I love history, even the boring history, but this is the absolute WORST. And now we are talking about the importance of trains in history,mi am checked out, 100%
Well I hope this has been good enough for this week and missing last week, I'll try and do another one soon.

Odd

I walked outside to go to my truck today and for the first time in weeks there was no fog, no inversion, clean crisp air. I was an odd feeling to actually be able to see further than the other side of the street. Then for the next few days it has snowed, almost non stop. But that's okay.
So I know it's been over a week since my last post, sorry, and I realize this one will be shorter an usual, BUT, I am getting swamped with school, work, and volunteering. I will say that I am really enjoying working in the school, but I really want to start writing again. Maybe I will soon.
As for now all I can say is that I am excited for Sunday.

"You must go to the Dagobah system"

A quick look at last year

3 different homes, 3 different positions at work, 3 semesters of school encompassing 2 separate universities, 1 ended relationship, 2 weddings, 2 funerals, one baby blessing, one epic BBQ, one trip to Vegas, a couple finished tv series, mission farewells, true brotherhood on xbox live, and a whole lot of sitting around doing nothing. That sums up the past year, the past 12 full months of living in Utah county. This is the first time in over 6 years in which that has happened.
Now as I sit in the hall of flags trying to pass the time until my next class, which I wait hours upon hours for, I dread the thought of going to work after being up for 24 hours, all I want to do is sleep at this moment in time. Thank the heavens for the invent of energy drinks.
Listing off what I did in the past year made me realize, I don't really do much, especially since it made me see how much time is spent watching Netflix, and just sitting around. I am hoping that this year I can do less of both of those and more of things that I don't feel so ashamed to admit to; more vacation, BBQ's, or even just dates or just going out on the weekend and doing SOMETHING.

Return of the....poorly worded blog

Well, to those...couple people, here you go a return to this writing.
As I lay in my bed feeling sick from a nasty in-n-out lunch earlier, I sit and wonder what I could begin to ramble about. School? Work? New goals? The extreme cold? A lack luster romantic life? Or even just the contemplation of whether I should keep this iPad I am "typing" on, I have decided......none of those. Well at least right now. I figure I will take some time to write this entry and all those to follow, kind of like Derek does when writing a letter to Coles or Strawberry. So I will sleep now so that I can hopefully make it to work tonight, and add to this later.
Okay, so no more in-n-out, ever. That place ALWAYS makes me sick. I had a miserable night trying to sleep and not throw up...fantastic experience! Today is great though, I started my volunteering at Salem Hills, it'll be interesting to actually be working in a school. I'm excited to see how it goes. Though it will be hard to do anything else other than work and my volunteer hours for a while, sleep will be in short supply Monday through Thursdays. Well, not much else is happening, school is great. I am glad it has started again it gives me something to do and is nice to be active doing something more than watching Netflix.
I did meet with one of my professors from last semester and interestingly enough she offered to let me teach one of her classes. The offer was great and made me excited, I want to but am nervous to do so. I told her I would love to but possibly wait until next semester and help out in one of her history 1500 classes. Though it still scares me to think about teaching in a college class.
I am still enjoying my new housing. Despite the fact that our trashy neighbors keep me awake at times and sometimes kind of creep me out. I like having a place to live that nice and new, clean and respectable. I am stoked for the spring to come so that I can rebuild the yard and throw some killer BBQ's, though I am not sure any will beat the one Derek and I threw at the pad before we moved. I have started collecting some recipes that I can try for them and hopefully they'll turn out well.
Just to touch on this because I know it's a subject that is of apparent concern to some people, the love life of myself is empty and non-existent. Though that is not something I am complaining out here, it is something I am just stating. I have thought about meeting new girls on campus while at school but who really wants to get bothered by me while at school, that and a great number of them are almost 10 years younger than myself and that kinda bugs me. Tell you what, Derek if you read this, as soon as you find a lady friend, I will consider doing like wise.
With that I will finish this entry and go back to doling homework.

Its over

This is the last post I will do. Blogs are of no more relevance. Especially mine. There is no need for it to occupy the space of your screen. If you were ever a reader of this, thank you and I am sorry for the mind numbing boring droll which I proceeded to publish.

Waiting to be homeless

Last week I was informed that the house I am living in is selling, which is great news for Kevin, not for me though. I will admit the past couple months I have not been planning (saving is another way to put it) on the house selling for a bit, so in turn I am kind of in a situation. While I do still have 3 weeks to find a place and save, that still will not give me enough time to save enough.
After 2 budget rewrites and cutting back on everything. I still cannot afford anything really. I have found 3 apartments so far that fall with in my budget range that are not student housing and are relatively close to work, and out of the three so far one has been filled, one is no longer listed so that I may contact them, and the last I am hoping to go look at and apply for on Tuesday. SO with that being said, the future for my housing does not look well. In fact my plan now is to box up all of my things deposit them between a couple different places (under the stairs at my parents and in the crawl space at my brothers) and then couch hop until something in my meager budget pops up.
That being the case, I plan on sleeping on multiple couches, beds, futons, floors, and probably in my truck in the next little while. I am not complaining because that would do me no good, especially since this is partially my fault with not saving money when I needed to. So, if I happen to ask if I can use your floor or couch or maybe your shower once or twice, please be kind and say yes.


"Why does every body forget about hobo-Joe?!"

Shortish update/status

I put this here just because I know very few if any will read it. It's been a very long few weeks, no matter what I do I just can't shake this depressed mood. But I felt like just saying how grateful am for what is going right at the moment.
In a crazy time with no sense of direction and a feeling of dread at every turn I am glad that I can drive just a couple of minutes and be with my family. They help in ways they don't even know, from my Mom and or Melissa just talking with me, or Alexa, Beryle, and Ellie playing and making me forget about everything, or Cory and Tyler (and Derek) pulling me away to do something random, or the advise from Brent, it has all helped; thank you.
The fact I have a great job, even though someways I feel like I have no idea what I am doing I am glad they want me around and keep paying me. I am so happy I got it, thank you Rob.
My free house, though it may be run down, have no hot water, possibly infested with spiders, and be sold at any minute, I glad I have it and can't express that enough.
And still and for ever Vaughn, Amy, and Adi. For what they have done for me I will never forget or be able to thank them enough. That situation could not have gone any better. I will for ever be indebted to them. I love them so much.
There is much more but those are the big ones right now. Sorry to be all sappy but I couldn't sleep and have needed to say that for a while. I'm not sure how much ling I'll keep this because more and more I don't see a point to it because no body comes around. But that's a decision for later.
Night.
