Big and Bad and on the Road again

It is time. This is post number 100. Sorry, no big party, no big layout change, really no big anything. Well that is kind of a lie. Today was the day i got my license back. For those who did not know i lost my license last may because of a horrible judgment error on my part. I got a DUI, no fun at all, especially because i was not even drunk. Not even a little buzzed. But my blood test showed different then my body was reacting. Needless to say, I am a legally licensed driver once again. Watch out mean streets of Chattanooga, here I come. I figured this was big enough news to share with the world on my 100th post. Short and sweet, have a good day.

It has taken way to long to get here

Wow this is post number 99. It was a long way in the making to get to this point. A whole lot of waisted time and waisted words. It is funny to me, i have not done anything on this blog, steadily, for so long. When i finally decide to get back on i am almost at 100. Maybe we should throw a party. That would be great. John Totten would be the only one in attendance. I think he is the only one who checks to see if I have written anything.

I am trying to make myself a cool new design for this blog. I am going to have to get help making it a reality. I have been playing around in photoshop with new banner designs. That is as far as i have gotten so far. We will see. I have drawn up a design on paper. Maybe i just need to get my brother to help me put it on here.

I have just in the recent past started looking on craigslist. I don't quite now how to use it to my benefit. I did post on the Seattle list to find a vet good enough for my dog. I also found a group of people who meet up for good hikes every week. I can't wait to hike in real mountains. Lookout has served its purpose. Being in my back yard my whole life, i have hiked all over it. I used to take off from The nature center ever Sunday and hike to sunset and back. That was fun. Me and my dog love Bear Creek. That place will be missed. It is a rare beauty. Does anyone know if it is closed still? Some of my friends went up there last Friday and they had signs posted saying it was closed.

I am also in the middle of drastically cutting back on my smoking. I said i would quit when i was 25 and i have failed all my attempts so far. I am trying to work on this whole will power thing. I felt so good the week i quit. I can only imagine how great it will feel to quit all together. I only have until August 23 to make the 25 year old deadline. Fingers crossed.

Well i was just stopping in for a minute. I need to get back to planning this move. I am trying to way my options on how to actually get all my crap out there. Right now flying seems to be the best way. I will just have to figure out about pets flying. Also how to get rid of a bunch of stuff. More on this later.

Once again, I am back

Well life is interesting sometimes. After quitting my job a lot of nothing has happened. I have been staying busy. Luckily i have a roomate who owns a business. Most of you who would read this know him. John Simpson has given me an opportunity to stay busy and make a little money. I really appreciate him letting me work for him while i have been going through this transition in my life. But on to the big news. i just want to let the world know I am moving. Chattanooga has been a wonderful home to me for almost 26 years. I dont know anywhere else as home. It has come time for me to up root. I have talked about going back to school for a while. Now is the time to make that a reality. I am heading to Seattle to live in domestic bliss with my dog, Hank, and my brothers from another mother, the Totten boys.(another father as well, we are not related in the least) The plan as it seems now, is to leave Chattanooga on August 16th. The details of moving are just now starting to unfold. The more i think about it the more scared i get, but also the more excited at the same time. It is that time in my life where i am searching for direction, i should have been able to find this a long time ago, but here i go. I am hoping to enroll in the Seattle Art Institute at the beginning of the new year. Industrial/Product design is what i am looking to study. Change is here and now. There really is nothing to it but to do it at this point. So prayer is asked from anyone willing to pray. Prayer for a clear mind and understanding of the road ahead.
