Being different...sometimes sucks

My wife and I don't really try but we always end up standing apart from the people around us. Sometimes we don't get invited to places or get-togethers because people think we don't want to be there. We value our privacy but we have never been rude to anyone about it. Sorry if we don't share your exact likes or views but believe it or not we are still cool people. Personally, I've always loved having someone around that thinks different. When the value of a person's company comes down to how much they can drink, somethings just not right. Truly, sometimes people suck.

My best friend

I remember one of my first blogs was about my dog Tobe. I posted a pic of him that wasn't the most flattering but I figured he wouldn't mind. He meant the world to me. I know that there are people out there that just can't understand the connection or bond a person can have with a pet and that's okay because there really are no words to describe that bond. I can't MAKE you understand, you either know what it feels like or you don't.
When I lived in L.A. he was my companion, my partner, my copilot. When I moved to Idaho, he became my only friend. I didn't know anyone and when I took long lonely drives to clear my head, he was sitting in his favorite seat, right next to me. During a dark period for me, I moved out on my own. Once again it was just me and him and he helped me stay sane. As time went on and more pets came into our family, he was there to help welcome them home. And when the time came to say goodbye he waited. He didn't want to be alone in a cage he wanted to be in his favorite spot at home. He gave me just enough time to thank him for everything he had done for me and my loved ones. I know he understood. He was my best friend and he lived up to his name until the final seconds 'Meant To Be'

Goodbye M. Tobe, and thank you.

The bitter taste of defeat

It was a great effort by my Jets but they fell...one game before the super bowl. But I don't feel too bad because they showed everyone that they are a force to be reckoned with and a team that finally deserves some respect. Let's hope these sports analysts gain some sense and start treating my team fairly next year.

Facebook dilemmas

So I've come to the conclusion that I am now a prisoner on facebook. I really can't say what I want to anymore. I am too worried about how some of my "friends" might respond. Now I'm not saying that I'm gonna start saying horrible things but speaking my mind is just out of the question. I'm bound to offend someone. Kids, parents, republicans, democrats, christians all of them. So much for free speech.

Reality check 2011

I'm worried. I'm worried that the things that used to interest me are slowly fading away. Activities, interests, hobbies that used to make me happy just don't mean as much to me anymore. I don't know if its because I live in a place that doesn't offer much out if its because I'm getting older. Maybe this is normal and I should just stop whining. And I would if it wasn't for this little voice coming from somewhere telling me, actually screaming at me, to hold on to what truly makes me happy. Life is so damn complicated, is it wrong that such little things can bring joy to a persons day. Do I have to save a rain forest or something or is it ok to say that reading movie trivia makes me happy as a clam? (clams are gross by the way)
