Stay the fuck away.Your family went far above and beyond anything ever necessary to damage my life and did so without any justification what-so-ever.You are NOT welcome in my life or my son's life in any way shape or form. You are NOT welcome to intrude on my life by trying to use this blog to feed your sick, disgusting, perverted desires to find something you can use against other people.So

Last week saw me in the ER for chest pain (again). The first time I did that was posted in Dark Trails (here). It was just a matter of an injury to the cartilage around my sternum, and every heartbeat hit that injury, sending pain shooting through my chest – so you probably see how that could be confused with a heart attack.Now back to the story at hand. I was back in the ER again with chest

This past weekend I went out for a walk. It was a walk out in the deep woods, mountains, canyons, rivers and that kind of thing. It was supposed to be a hunting trip, but since the game decided not to show up, we'll just call it well armed camping, and walking.I had so much time to think about what has been going on in my life. Time to really consider what I want, and why I don't have what I

For all the years this blog has been active, and for all of the posts I have done for Friday’s Girl. I have at times given thought to who was the worst of the worst.I have known that answer now for nearly two years. During that time I was not writing Friday’s Girl posts. So her misdeed went kind of unwritten. I say kind of because I actually did write it out, and it is posted on another blog.

It has been a while since I have done a Friday's Girl post. For those who don't know about Friday's Girl. Here is a brief history and description. In my past, I have been used and lied to by women who would gladly complain about how men are just pigs and liars and cheaters. I did not do anything to them to deserve to be lied to, or to be mistreated, yet that is what I got. Someone (who I'll

So for a very long time I was not that busy. Then all of the sudden I am so busy my friends and family are wondering where I went.I guess this blog is wondering where I went too. After all, this was where I came to just vent out my emotions, and the thoughts in my head I did not feel comfortable to share with people directly in my life.It was a kind of therapy I suppose.The time is coming that

I have noticed I haven't posted in a while. It seems it was about a year that I prayed often and hard for a job. I guess I prayed too hard or too often because I ended up with two jobs. No details of course, but I am extremely busy and spend much of my free time just plain tired. Until I get to that point in at least one of these jobs that I can comfortably do the work without having to spend

I don't have to take the crap any more.The hateful woman who is lying and trying to use the legal system to emotionally abuse her (hopefully) soon to be ex-husband turned her hatred and vindictiveness toward me.I didn't have to take it and I did not. In a moment the other day she demanded I do something immediately. In reality, I had no legal options but to comply with the request she made (

I know why I became The Silent Male. A man who lived in silence while a woman, and other women kept me silent through threats and coercions.It is not enjoyable to see that reminder. A woman who I called a friend. No. So much more than that. I told her directly I would do everything for her that I possibly could. I told her directly that I was her friend. I kept her secret. I kept her

HiI have noticed a few hits from Australia that came by way of SulkyGirl's blog. I have no doubts that the disagreement between her and I are part of the reason for the visit. With that in mind, I wanted to share a few things about that disagreement.For starters. I was not aware that Sulky Girl disliked me. I read her blog at TheLoveQuote, and left a few comments, and she shared some of her

I kept the secret I mentioned before. That didn't stop it from getting out.The friend asked me today to tell her everything. To tell her what her husband knew. To tell her what her friends know (including the one she calls her best friend).I intentionally withheld. I told her they knew. She says they were just guessing. She tells me there is other stuff going on in her life right now.Things

According to Christian Radio Host Harold Camping. Tomorrow. Saturday May 21, 2011 will begin the rapture. Here is exactly what is posted on Wikipedia regarding how he came to this belief.Camping has presented several numerological[15] arguments, or biblical "proofs", in favor of the May 21 end time. A civil engineer by training, Camping states he has attempted to work out

I have a sister. I have always had a sister since the day of my birth.A short time after my birth. There were sisters. As in more than one.The second sister came from a different set of parents. There were legal issues and lots of messy stuff that I was too young to understand then, and haven't a clue about now because it was never explained.A few years later. She was gone again. She was

Some time ago, a woman left a comment on another blog that was specifically about me, and she knew it was specifically about me. In it she was judgmental of my religious beliefs. Though I have never once judged her beliefs. In it she insulted my existence as a human being. In that comment she laughed and mocked something that I found emotionally difficult to deal with.I sent her an email

I know somewhere, some post I have stated that I am Christian in religious belief. I may be the most non-judgmental, tolerant Christian one could find. I will probably write a longer post on that thought in the future.For now, I just don't want someone to read that I am Christian and assume I would judge their life. I don't. Or assume that I think I am a goody too-shoes kinda person.

Yeah. There is a word that just begs to have so much spoken about it. We have our secrets. We let our secrets out. We choose who can have them, who should not have them.Maybe they are fun, maybe they are hurtful. So on and so forth.But for me. I was given a secret. It was a pretty big one (no, I am not going to repeat it). I look at it and try to think about whether or not I want this

I felt like teasing someone today. She had it coming for all of her teasing me (in a good natured way).When I went to take a shower, I took my cell phone with me and captured an image of me from behind (clearly I looked like a man stepping into the shower while holding a cell phone).Well that really wasn't good enough. So I turned around and took a picture facing the mirror.The reaction I got

I am going to do an amazing trick and confront two taboo topics in one single post. As always, comments are quite welcome.This is a once upon a time story.Once upon a time, I was not monogamous. In fact, there was a point where I was having sex with four different women. I was honest with all of them. They all knew I was not being monogamous, and to at least some degree, knew about the

I haven't really paid attention to the weather overall across the country. I do know that where I live, Spring has not really sprung yet. We are experiencing sustained below average temperatures and far more precipitation than normal.So it makes the whole global warming thing a bit suspect to me.Even still. I did witness a major global warming protest.They look pretty upset about the whole

I listened to a conversation a high school student had about a class he was in. The instructor had 3 pieces of candy, and told the class that he would ask 3 questions in order to select the 3 students who would get the candy.The questions had to do with WW2. I listened as the student described the questions, the answers, and the throwing of the candy.All I could think at the time was that those

I described my life stuffed into packages. Packages I searched through, finding the bits and pieces, sorting and organizing. Bringing them back out to where they will live.Among this I found my greatest work of art. I do not describe myself as an artist. There are things I have done which definitely had artistic merit. Even things done within a job may contain artistic merit. For example.

I am hanging in there. I have gone through some more changes.I saw my life completely upheaved, stuffed into packages, stored away, and kept hidden for a year. Now the view is so very different. All of that material of my life is no longer stored away, but so very much of it is still stuffed into those packages.I am going through these bits and pieces of my life. Searching for where they

I am not going to edit the words regarding these apologies. They were spoken (or written) by two different women in two different situations, but they both highlight something I think is critical.Here is a statement about an apology from one person.“Clearly the original video posted by me was inappropriate.

The date of the last post is Sep 29, 2009. That is a long time to take a break from a blog before returning.Yet here I am. I went a different path, but that path has reached its conclusion. This was more me than the other path was.I cannot speak for the frequency of posting, or how personal I will be in my posts.

Yes. Bonus Post. What in the hell is up with me posting twice on Saturday. It might have something to do with the fact that I haven't posted that much the past couple weeks. It might have something to do with the fact that my last post was a cut and paste job which didn't use too many of my pitiful brain cells.So way back when I was in the Air Force, I was part of an Air Crew.

I really hate to do this to my blog.But in the interest of fair play and because I did mention yesterday that there are songs I just don't like. Especially if they just seem like songs where someone opened a can of music and poured it onto tape (or Digital Media if you prefer).So here are two examples of songs that became hits and I have no idea why.

Saturday I went to YouTube to look for a video for an Evanescense song. Just for FYI, I really like the music Evanescense puts out, so it does not take much to get me interested in checking out their videos.Well, they have the related videos. Sometimes I check those out. I saw a group I had not heard of before. Usually this is because their music is not popular in any way. I tried the one at

It seems like ages ago now that I would sneak into my parent’s bedroom where I could watch Playboy TV. See, the cable subscription they purchased had it limited to only the cable box they kept in their room. And like most any red-blooded male, I was not about to resist the lure of checking out the naked women and fake sex scenes (some might have been real). Even now those memories can be the

A little funny music this morning.Some relaxing music for the evening.YouTube says this song is Metamorphisis by Enigma. I don't think Enigma ever recorded such a song. So if anyone knows what the real title and who the real artist who made this song is, please share.

Today I need to take a break from all of the grieving, and all of the anger, and all of the frustrations.So what you get is this silly little video spoof of a popular rock song.

This is my corner. This is where I am losing my religion.I prayed. I prayed while driving. I prayed while sitting at my desk. I prayed while in my home. I prayed while I physically sat on my knees. I prayed.I prayed to God to be allowed the means to leave this place and to put a physical distance between myself and my former in-laws. I prayed for release from having to work for them

Monday - Sniffles hit. Stuffiness through my sinuses. It really wasn't that bad, but then I couldn't sleep (couldn't breath clearly).Tuesday Morning - Head like a bowling ball. Body hurting, and just felt miserable. I called in sick for the first since before my wife passed away. In fact, this was the first time I missed a day of work since after I returned following her passing. I felt

Through e-mail I speak with a friend who, like so many friends, wants to help me through what I am going through. She shared with me that she knows sometimes her husband is not honest with her (we now have it narrowed down to about 99% of married women, right?). She also provided a few details which are only hers to share, so you won’t get to read them here.I thought about what she said though.

It is night. I am in the master bedroom, in the bathroom actually. Brushing my teeth or removing my contacts or whatever I am doing. A slight turn of my head and I see someone in the corner of my eye in the bedroom.I know no one is there.This is not the first time it has happened. Each time was in the bedroom. Each time I knew no one else was there. Each time it was only out of the corner

As a parent, I believe it is my right and duty to monitor the things my children choose to want in their lives. Whether it is rated M games (which a certain 4th grader wants), or videos, movies, or music.My older son has managed to find a music style to like which I find difficult to listen to. Even more so as I try to navigate my way through the rage emotions (the rage is still going strong,

Considering that I haven't seen rain since before my wife died, and I don't expect to see rain until October or after I move to a nicer state. The song only fits on the inside.My left arm is quite raw. It took the brunt of the fall from my motorcycle. I lost enough skin that it is quite possible I will have a scar there on my left arm. Since Saturday I have worn a bandage. Actually, I have

I am not interested in taking a paycut of about $30K per year. 2. I am not a salesperson (full self awareness on that issue). I am sure there is more I can do, but my knowledge about what I

I probably won't take the time to post this later today, so I need to say something now.Happy 4th of July. Happy Birthday USA.Yesterday I took my sons out to spend way too much money on fireworks. I think all three of us need it.Shortly I am going to go get on my Harley and go for a ride. I have only one destination in mind. I am going to ride to my work place. I want to be familiar with

Admittedly I do like the movie Mulan. I especially like this scene and the music that goes with it. There are even two versions and I really don't have a favorite.I feel as though my life is about making decisions and facing new adventures. I wish it could happen as quickly as this scene, but some things require more time.My son has several friends at school. One of those friends, a young

I know this music isn't for everyone, but this is just such a funny song, I couldn't resist but to share it. I think I might even be mentioned in it somewhere (the video is pretty cool too).I rode the motorcycle to work today. It was the first time I got the bike up to some speed (about 55), which was really cool. I did make one mistake when I got close to work. I had to go off road a bit.

And of course some spend so much time thinking of the future that they live there.Somehow I am living in all three simultaneously. This is new to me in so many ways. I have lived in all three at

I do not have very many readers because this blog remains private. That will continue to be the case until I leave my current job. Once I find a new job, I intend to go public once again.So I kind of have a measure of my readers and I know that among my readers I have some from two parent households and some from single parent households.It can be argued that single parents usually have a

She is gone now. Gone before I returned home from work for the evening.We didn't get to say a proper goodbye. I asked when she was leaving and every time she told me she did not know. Perhaps she wanted to avoid the goodbye and perhaps her dad wasn't forthcoming about telling her. I think my daughter didn't want to accept the reality and thus, did not ask the questions.I cried. I will cry

Over the course of my marriage with C, I had opportunities to review the divorce and custody paperwork from her first marriage. Here are some basic truths from I learned from reading the paperwork.The divorce between them was kind of bitter and led to several legal fights. Custody was determined as joint custody with C getting primary custody and her former spouse paying child support and

I don't know about you guys, but when someone tells me its my turn to speak, I kind of freeze up. All thoughts just go out the window.So I thought, I'll look at my blog for inspiration.

Maybe you know some of them, and maybe you don't, I'll just keep cryptic about that.Lately I am really noticing the affect of voices on me in many ways.

I am not supposed to be counting the passage of time, and yet I am. I say I am not supposed to because part of me says that it isn't the amount of time passed, but the amount of healing past that really matters. Yet I still count the passage of time.Today marks the end of the second month.It was an emotional difficult day overall. I don't know if it was the knowledge that today is two months,

So he took my bike to a parking lot at a local high school and I met him there.The school cheerleaders were having a car wash for a fund raiser.

I have not practiced my violin but a couple times since C passed. It kind of bothers me.I know it shouldn't. I know my life has taken on a huge upheaval and change and plenty of other adverbs. So with that in mind.

While driving with my two kids the other day. My son started singing with the song playing.My daughter looked back, smiled big and said that he is so cute when he sings.I got struck by a thought and started to giggle (it was a manly giggle, in case you are wondering).She asked what thought struck me and I told her the truth.I told her she was so cute when she said her brother was so cute.

Our friend Desmond raised some interesting thoughts with his comment on my When Post.I thought about responding by comment, but there were so many thoughts running through my head. I thought it needed an entire post. The title of the post was difficult enough, but I finally figured one word kind of summed up where my thoughts were.First really good point.

One of the aspects of my job is that I take care of tools Calibration. What that means (only in case you do not know) is that the tools we have which are used for measuring or testing (such as temperature or dimension) must be tested themselves to insure they give an accurate reading. My job is to insure that each tool has been tested and has a sticker on it indicated when it was tested and
