I'm going back a full almost two months and a half here so I guess you could say it's a story... I'll try to be brief. But lets be honest probably not going to happen...
1- As all of you I'm sure know, Brooke and I broke up back at the beginning of July... or was it at the end of June??? Anyway for those who aren't aware of this, It wasn't a pretty break up. In fact you could say it was a "bad break-up." So here's a short recap of what all went down. She felt I wasn't progressing at the rate she wanted me to progress in my voyage of becoming a faithful member of the Church of Latter Day Saints (Mormons for you non-utah'n peeps). Well all her male friends who she associates with at her church are all green off the mission "Peter Priesthood's." So obviously comparing me to them I'm going to come off as a person who has a seat reserved next to Hitler and Stalin in the poker championship in the afterlife. Cause I'm not going to lie, I'm not ashamed of this and it's my personal choice, I do have a little bit of a foul mouth which I keep it under control, I have tattoo's and plan on getting some more later in my life, I watch and listen to movies/music that I enjoy regardless of the rating "label" that it receives. If it's something I know I'm going to enjoy why should I deny myself that enjoyment. I'm a mature adult who knows that works of fiction are just that, fiction; and shouldn't be associated with reality. I do agree there are movies and music out there that do nothing but decay the mind and the senses of morality, i.e. The Saw movies, or the majority of ghetto trash rap music. So due to the differences listed earlier we called it quits and it just proceeded to get ugly from there. Don't get me wrong, I don't think or feel hatred or ill feeling toward her, I still do care a great deal about her and wish her the best in life and hope she finds what she's looking for. Now I know that the spoken items above are things that the church frowns upon and disagrees with. But they have also said that member should use their own digression and judgments on said topics. Just because I do have tattoos, curse from time to time, and watch Rated "R" movies doesn't make me a bad person. No one has said that; I don't drink, smoke, do drugs, sleep around with women, treat people poorly, and ect... I do go to church, and have been for a while now. And am making and working on the improvements to becoming a faithful member and the person I want to become, not the person others want me to be. I am truly grateful for all that I have been through and the obstacles the lord has given me to overcome. I wouldn't be the person I am today if it weren't for these experiences.
2- Yes, I did in fact slice of part of my finger on the morning of the 4th of July. May I say that spending three hours in the Lakeview Hospital ER is not my idea of a good holiday... to briefly catch you up on how I managed to pulled this off; Family was coming over to my house for a Barbeque that night, And I was cleaning up the back porch. Well I had the leaf blower going, well there's a plastic cover that goes over air way for the fan, and this plastic cover made for safety reasons had broken off without my knowledge. So I placed my hand a little too close to where the fan is and my left index finger got sucked right up into the thick plastic fan that turns close to about 300 mph. It ripped off my finger nail, and the side tip of my finger off. I remember noticing it happened and the next think I remember is lying in an ER bed. I don't recall anything in-between. Just what my mom and sister filled me in on what happened. It's healed now; my finger nail is almost all the way grown back. And the part that was cut off has grown back and almost healed back to normal. And I must say it happened at a good time, it was good to have something take my mind off the break-up.
3-Sadie my Boxer puppy, okay she's a year old but she still acts like a puppy. Managed to get out of the house and run away for five days three weeks ago. It was one of the worst experiences. I never before have been so upset worried and sad. I spent a great deal of time driving around all of Bountiful and can officially say I have driven on every road in Bountiful city's boundaries. On day four I had pretty much given up all hope on finding her. I had gotten home from work the next day and received a phone call from one of my neighbor’s four houses up the road saying they had a brown boxer hiding under their back porch scared and it wasn't coming out and wondered if it was my dog. Well the second I walked into the back yard and got in view of the porch Sadie came running out and about took me to the ground when she jumped at me. I couldn't have been more relieved and happy to see her alive!
4-I have been playing a lot of Halo 3 over the past few weeks, and am greatly disappointed in
myself by succumbing to sucking on the Halo teat and am now addicted. I used to very against this game, more because of the type of people that play this game. Take your generic average douchebag college frat boy, you know the kind; wears straight legged Abercrombie Jeans, a slightly too tight t-shirt purposely to show off how much time he obsesses about looks at the gym with a popped collar polo only half tucked into his pants to he can show off his large belt buckle with a bottle opener made into it for uncapping the beers he consumes with his "Bros" while practicing playing the first half of Dave Mathews Crash so to swoon the ladies on campus quad. Have I painted the picture for you? Now I wouldn't mind playing with these guys if they would actually play the game but instead they get on the headset and talk about how high or drunk they are, and usually every word is followed by the explicit "F" word or "Dude" saying it repeatedly, I imagine he does this then to glance at his "Bros" looking for acceptance among the clan of apes. Then after each kill proceed to squat on top of the corp
se of the of the player showing he's either humping or pushing out a duce on your dead body. I don't know which because while these guys were slipping rufies in girl they plan to date rape that night drinks, I was actually going to class, studying and wasn't a complete ass and a waste of skin. And I didn't need to get girls drunk to go out or make out with me. I have what these cave men lack... a personality. Back to the topic at hand when not playing against these creatures that evolution passed by I actually have a lot of fun. And found out I'm not half bad at the game. I still love Call of Duty 4 and Rainbow Six Vegas but to be honest I'm just in a mood to frag douchebags on Halo 3.Well I think I officially wrote more than I have ever written in my life, but that’s what’s been going on for the past two months. I promise I'll keep up on this more often to avoid these long rants/updates. But enough about me. What have you been doing?
