Casino night, fun night

Had a good night at the casino. Not that I am gonna retire or anything, but, made money, that is always a good thing!

I love playing Texas Hold'em, no limit of course. 5 hrs of playing and I quadrupled my money, that is pretty good. There were some darn good players on the table to. A few monster stacks, for a 1- 2 no-limit game.

Today looks like a fantastic day, the sun is bright, hopefully warm. My brother in-law went to England yesterday with some kids from his high-school, so my sister wants me to go in the pool with my nephew for his swimming lessons. That is cool, I never had the opportunity to do that with my daughters, so it will be fun.

Next weekend when my daughter I here we will go for public swim right after my nephews lesson, my daughter will love that.

Well, I think I am going to start a blog on movies, and become a movie critic. I don't to start tearing them all apart like Siskel and Ebert, or most of those movie critics, I want to look at it from the everyday persons perspective, well that is what I am, just an everyday person.

So if there is someone out there reading this, keep your eyes open for a new movie blog, COMING SOON!!!

It's been a good week, busy at work, busy at home.

Spent today with my sister and her little guy. He is a wildcat that guy!

I can't wait to see my daughter on Wednesday, take a few days off and chill with her. I think I will hit the casino for a $40 bucks or so, see if that turns into something or ... not. More than likely not, but hey, once every six months or so.

Was out trying to find a deep freeze for my apartment today, hard to find one small enough. Found one at Superstore, but they don't keep them in stock all the time, only a couple times a year, and it is a decent price. Found another, an upright, it should fit, but it is 600 bucks! crazy. Guess I will have to keep looking.

It was getting a little nicer around here, but now it is a little chillier again. Still above zero so that is great. Suppose to rain on Sunday I think, that should help get rid of some of the snow still around.

Well, I don't think anyone reads these, but that is cool, I am doing this for me so, that is what is important to me. It helps get some of the stuff inside out, that is healthy I think.

Till next time, be thoughtful of others, then they will be thoughtful of you, pay it forward!

It is the end of the week! YAhoo! I may go to a movie tonight Fast and Furious starts tonight, Knowing looks good, Push is at the Rainbow and it looks pretty cool.

I installed my CPU fan and heatsink, the old computer purrrs along just fine now.

My first ex called last night wondering what was happening for Easter, if I was gonna be buying a plane ticket for my daughter to come out. I told her that she has all my money and that I can't afford it. Of course she goes on justifying why she has to take double what she was getting.

Of course now she is married and has a huge house 'somewhere', so I need to support her and her husband, oh ya that is supposed to be supporting my daughter! But she doesn;t care, I am stuck in a 1 bedroom little apartment, hardly enough room to change my mind about stuff!!

I sure miss my daughter, she is great. Oh well, I hope she still loves me and thinks about me. I know her mother has never done anything to nurture our relationship.

It is very stressful, I have made tremendous effort to see my daughter, all the travelling and expense, but it was worth it, she is my daughter I love her! And on top of it, never missed a child support payment. Now I pay more and never get to see my daughter!

I guess I am rambling some here, but I do find it so frustrating, this legal system is so full of ****. I truly understand why many guys do not pay their child support, but some of them never see their kids.

Let's get off that topic, ball season is coming soon. Can't wait to play ball again. I just play softall nowadays, but it is stilll nice to get out and play. I might even go try out for a hardball team this year, we'll have to see how I feel.

I dislocated my knee last June, and went knee to knee with a guy on Wednesday night playing basketball, so it is a little tender right now.

I really need to get my butt into the gym and start running some again. I put a couple pounds on over the last couple of months, here sitting on my a@@

I should go make some supper and pick a movie.

Another day

Well, it was my EDO (earned day off). Of course things are so crazy busy right now I had to go in for a 2 hour meeting. On top of it I got my daughter today!! That is a good, actually GREAT thing! I usually don't get her until 3:30pm when I pick her up from school, in a city about 45 minutes away, but she didnt have school today and her mother brought her here today! saved me a trip.

Anyways, I went to my meeting, got it over with, and spent the rest of the day with my girl. We went and did a little window shopping, I am trying to find a deep freeze, a small one for my apartment. We went and picked up a new heatsink and fan for my computer CPU. I guess I'll have to install that soon.

I try to make the time my daughter and I are together as normal as possible. I try not to make every time she is with me a big event. Sometimes we just hangout in the apartment most the weekend, sometimes we go see a movie, go to the museum, a walk around the park/lake or whatever, it is just nice to spend time with her.

Of course this is my youngest daughter. My eldest, I don't really get to see anymore. The legal system is really screwed up. After not missing a child support payment in 13 years, her mother decides she should come back and take more money, now I can;t afford to see my oldest daughter. Now I guess I am supporting my ex and her new husband.

Oh well, I hope the weather changes soon, it has been a terribly cold and icky winter! Can;t wait for the warm weather!

It is time for sleep, my girl is snoring away already so ... I guess I should crash to.

In the Beginning

Well, this is it, the beginning. This is my first entry in my blog. I am not to sure how it will go, but I am quite excited to embark on this venture.

I have never been one to express my thoughts, sometimes my emotions, but very rarely my thoughts. But I guess when I express my emotions, I am expressing my thoughts.

How I think and the foundation of who I am will show when those emotions are expressed.

Well, perhaps I will explore that more in the future, it is pretty interesting when you start to think about stuff like that, when you start looking at and within yourself. Learning who you are and what you are made of can be both exhilarating and terrifying at the same time! Hopefully there will be more exhilaration than terror!

I look forward to this journey of the blog and hope you who share this journey with me enjoy it as well.
