Archive for December, 2003

Ok, so I have decided to blog. I figure I have been meaning to try to start a journal, so why not post it on the web? Well here it is. I am not sure yet what to think of other people reading my thoughts, usually a journal is a private thing. This is 100% public, out for the world to see. And if you are reading this, don’t expect to find the worlds best spelling or grammar. I don’t plan on publishing this or winning any awards. This is for me.

So once again I am up way to late… or early depending on your point of view. It is 4:11am. I should be sleeping considering I have to work all day tomorrow, and all night for that matter. I am working a small stage at Escondido’s “First Night” for New Years Eve. What a blast huh? Oh well, I didn’t really have any other plans and the money should be good, cuz I think I am supposed to get double-time for the gig tomorrow. 🙂 Well I didn’t have any plans that is. It seems all of a sudden people started asking me tonight what I was doing. Kirsten left me an IM asking what I was doing tomorrow night and New Years Day. I would have liked to go and do something with her. I really enjoy spending time with her and her family. Especially her mom, she is so cool. I consider her to be my 3rd mom. Mrs. Promack coming in 2nd, also a very cool lady… and family for that matter. Well I am gonna call her tomorrow and hopefully we end up doing something on the 1st.

In other matters, Mema’s car failed smog today. Not good. The tags are expired and the temp expires after tomorrow. It was good through December. My mom is going to go to the DMV to see about getting another temp permit. I don’t know what I am gonna do if she can’t. I need to get something done on one of my cars. My uncle Wayne thinks I can maybe get my truck running again for about $1,500. Which is a relief. However, I still need to call the junkyard and see about the parts. Hopefully if I can get the parts together my uncle or cousin Jeff will help me put it together. Seeing as how I haven’t a clue what I am doing really. I mean I am sure I could probably figure it all out, but it sure helps to have someone who actually knows what it is that they are doing. My other cousin Eric kinda offered to help me fix it, but I honestly don’t trust him to do it. He owes me for my VW Bug, which he sold to some guy or something. I honestly don’t know what the deal is. My mom was working some deal out with him as usual without asking me anything about it. I know she has a big heart and can’t help but try to help my cousin. I know he has had a rough life, but a lot of it is his own fault.

Sometimes my mom just tries too hard. Like with christmas this year. Don’t get me wrong. I love all the stuff my parents gave me, but I would rather have gotten nothing and seen them pay off some debt. Instead, they are building up more and more trying to give nice presents to everyone. Sometimes you just have to take one for the team. I don’t know what my parents, well mostly my mom, are thinking sometimes. My dad just goes along with it to make my mom happy. If they would stop spending money on stuff we don’t need they could pay off debt and even get some new stuff. Not to mention re-build some credit. Oh well, what do I know huh? I am just some 20 year old kid trying to figure out my life. I worry about my sister and Tyler too. They are working on building up some debt too. And does Tyler really expect to make a living at Lowe’s? I guess I shouldn’t be talking. I too need to get out of what I am doing and find some way to get into school so I can do what I really am wanting to do. Here Ryan is like a year away from being graduated and done, and I have barely even started.

Well enough for tonight, or this morning, or whatever. I am going to sleep. It is now 4:35 am and I really need to get to sleep. Spike will be waiting for me at the shop at 9am.

Nighty night. 🙂
