  • Things to know…

    There are things I talk about to people and there are things I don’t, it’s as simple as that. I’m not sure why people can’t seem to understand that. There are few people who know all about me, and even then I don’t tell them everything. I know I should trust my friends ad family…

  • Get me outta here!

    I know it’s free rent and all that, but I’ve been staying with my folks since I got back from traveling and it’s time for me to get the hell out of this place.  Don’t get me wrong I love my family, but I don’t think I can stay with them any longer without going nuts.

  • Home is where the heart is?

    Yesterday was my 29th birthday, it was a nice little affair with family and friends.  I usually don’t give a shit about my birthday or how old I am, but I feel this has some sort of bearing on this post.  Apparently since I’m living with my folks for the first time since I was…

  • Mmmm, coffee and internet

    After walking around yesterday looking for a cafe with wireless internet, I finally ended up at a Starbucks in Port Melbourne.  I was happy to have a place that had both coffee and internet, but less then thrilled to have to pay for that internet.  So today instead of paying for a connection at Starbucks…

  • Burning ears

    JB and I were talking the night before he left for Seattle about our school days and the people we knew. The really crazy thing is I had said I would like to apologize to someone for some very stupid school crap that I did back in the day. It was a real shame that…

  • Going home soon…

    I’m getting geared up to head home soon, I’ve almost come to the end of my time traveling before I get on a plane for the long flight home. Don’t get me wrong, I miss my Seattle friends and family, but I don’t know if I’m ready to go home yet, or at least stay…

  • Uluru…

    After spending just a few minutes in the presence of Uluru your first thought is “why the hell didn’t I buy the fly net for my head?” I’ve never met a fly as tenacious as the bush fly in Australia, the damn thing will crawl up you nose if you let it, and even if…

  • WiFi

    It’s everywhere. I’m here in the middle of nowhere, otherwise known as Uluru, Australia, which is really the middle of nowhere and here I am typing away on my blog.

  • Grandparents

    I sit here listening to Christmas music and it always makes me remember the people I miss, not a bad way mind you, I always remember the good while I’m in this mood.  Given what else I’ve written about in the recent months, remembering the good times is a better place for me to be. …

  • Talking to the past…

    I decided to email my ex-wife today. I’ve been avoiding it for at least the last 6 months. I know why I’ve been avoiding it, but ultimately I broke down and sent a little note off to her. It’s tough cutting someone who had been such a huge part of your life out. We had…
