Speed Racer

Eric decided to race Mike in little motorized kid cars. And lost miserably.

Missing Mikey

My nephew Mikey has an infectious personality. Here he is laughing his ass off.

Missing Sydney

This was taken at my going away party for Sydney. She's been gone for a couple weeks now, and although I've dealt with her parting...I still miss her a whole bunch.

Indecisive.

I've been tossing this around for the last few weeks. Maybe it's time to pack in this blog. I've peeled back all the fun stuff, like me talking about silly TV shows or about how I want to bang Holllywood starlets and moved all that wisdom (somewhat) over to Poison Scooter: The Blog. That left this blog to become a place that I talk about my daily struggles with the human race and ocassionally post photos from my pursuits. And since I'm paranoid about people from work reading this nonsense and it having an effect on my life, I've been forced to surpress my true thoughts and feelings about a lot of things making the point of this "diary" kind of pointless.

Over the last month or so I've limited my posts dramatically and as a result most likely bored my faithful readers. As a fan of blogs, I usually go to the one's I like every day and when they aren't updated it makes me angry and frustrated. So I feel like I'm letting folks down by not posting for 3 or 4 days in a row. And when I do post it's usually nothing very exciting.

I'm settling in to my golden years here in Georgia. I work. I spend time with the same crew of people drinking beer and sitting by the pool. I've turned my love life around and appear to have found happiness in the most unlikey candidate, one that I really don't want to talk about too much in cyberspace. (I've jinxed so many relationships in the past by endlessly divulging them here I feel.) My new attitude is...if you want to know how I'm doing, then call me and find out. Or email me. Or write me a post card. This forum has been so one sided, I tell you everything and I get nothing in return. And I think it has run it's course.

My hope is that my slack ass brother Mike will decide to once again assist me with launching PoisonScooter.com and that in the meantime you will all read the PS blog. I may re-launch this as merely a photoblog, a place to post pictures that I'm happy I took. And I might actually give you a back story about the shot or a story about the person in the picture. Who knows...the camera has remained idle for weeks now. It's been really theraputic to have this outlet for the last couple of years. I regret none of what I've written. Thanks for reading...

The Weekend

Pretty good weekend for a change. I didn't do much, but spent some quality time with a cool chick just getting to know each other better. Watched The Matador on Friday night (not as good as I hoped), Saturday got wasted poolside at Joolie's and yesterday watched 5 hours of Gilmore Girls (the things we do...) and went to see the Descent to close out the weekend. I didn't get much sleep, so it's kind of nice that I'm off today. Recovery time.

Running on Empty

Longest week ever.

Some major stuff happening at work that involves me working at warp speed from the time I walk in there until the time I roll home at quitting time. The scheduling gods have granted me a 3 day weekend this week for which I am extremely grateful. Just one more day of work and then I'm going to spend the long weekend doing as little as possible.

What is making this week slightly longer than usual is that last weekend I managed to hook up with a gal and I'm eager to spend some more time with her. Work always gets in the way of fun, but you gotta have the paycheck if you want to survive. And with my finances where they are, I have very little in the way of wiggle room for entertainment. I'm anxious to hit up The Descent this weekend, but otherwise I am prepared to lay low and chill in the A/C. The heat has been tough this past week and from what I hear it's hot as hell all over the US.
