“Early Morning, April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride”

A Moment
The unfortunate event in Haiti
will not go unnoticed.
A moment of silence and prayer
for the men, women and children who have perished.
Need To Learn
I forgot.
If we’re going to start this year with LOVE,
then we should also include Forgiveness.
For Love and Forgiveness go hand in hand.
I think that’s where the difficulties lie.
I have a lot of “Love” to give.
“Forgiveness” is something I have to learn.
Twenty Ten
2009 wasn’t as good as I hoped it to be.
In fact it has kicked me right down to the curb a couple of times.
I am pretty sure I was not alone in this.
And as always,
Here I am.
Here we are.
Trying to do better.
Let us try to start this year right.
Start it with LOVE.
(And maybe some cake too.)
Happy New Year to all!!
Last Post for ’09
Well.
This is it.
This is my last post for 2009.
I didn’t get the chance to greet you guys Merry Christmas.
So, Merry Christmas!
And we’ll see what 2010 is going to give us eh?
Best of the New Year to everyone.
Oh and here are a couple of things I have learned this year.
-People still suck.
-Experience is what you get when you did not get what you want.
and
-Too many people buy things they don’t need,
with money they don’t have,
trying to impress people they don’t even like.
Happy New Year tomorrow!
2 more days.
My cousin once said that,
“Christmas is not a date. It’s a State-Of-Mind.”
I only have 2 more days, and I am nowhere near any Mind-State.
Nope.
No spirit neither.
I m beginning to have doubts of it ever coming.
We’ll see eh?
2 more days.
**UPDATE
Guess what freakin’ died on me today?
My TV !!!
I have no money, nor the time to get another one.
Just Effing beautiful!
Merry Freakin’ Christmas, Ty!
Addendum
Ok.
Santa called last night.
I apologize about yesterday’s post.
I was upset.
And confused.
And drunk.
(I’m just kidding. I wasn’t confused)
But you do understand why I was furious, right?
Anyway.
Let’s just carry on with the Christmas shopping and
enjoy the agony of commercialism.
**UPDATE
Nope. As I found out,
it wasn’t Santa who called.
It was one of his Elves.
I guess he has to have someone do the dirty work for him.
Santa is a Jerk!!
Yes you heard me right!
The guy is an ass!
I am not going to put any disclaimer here
About the validity of the red suited freak.
Because I am sure none of you believe in him anymore
and I know that no kids ever read my site.
If you still do, well then good for you.
And if you are letting your kids read this website…
What the hell is wrong with you???
A Fun Place
If there is one thing I know I have,
is a Sense-Of-Humour.
I have to.
I certainly am lacking in the “Looks” category.
Not to mention the “Rich and Famous” part.
And I am most certainly not hip with whatever the “in” things are nowadays.
But, as weird as I am,
I am definitely sure, I have humour.
I hear people tell me that all the time.
But today,
A co-worker of mine told me something
that may have been the best compliment I have ever heard.
“Ty, your head must be a fun place.”
–
I’ve never heard that one before.
I was actually taken aback, after hearing that.
I would like to think of it as a compliment.
I like making people laugh.
Yes!
My head is a fun place.
It’s filled with great ideas and fun stuff,
Filled with laughter, music and dancing.
Filled with chocolates and pies and candies.
Filled with voices and questions.
Imagine what else I can do,
if they take off my straightjacket.
Twelve days ’til Xmas
Twelve more days.
Still not Joyful.
Nor triumphant.
Yup.
Situation: Normal.
Carry on.
