sorry about that...

So Kerri told me I need to start blogging again so here we go.

Life has been kind of fun lately. Costa Rica was a blast and it was a great get away from real life for a while. I guess now I'm back and have to think about growing up. I don't know what I want to do with the rest of my life which is kinda scary. My dad told me yesterday that i should get it figured out because I don't want to be one of those people that go around trying to figure life out.

on a lighter happier note I'm still working at the CB here in Maumee. it's been nice, I wish they had more hours for me, but I get that they have lots of people and everyone wants to work. so yeah, it's been fun.

I really miss all my friends at school and stuff, it's weird to not be around people you have gotten to know and love for the last 4 years. I went and visited Kevin and Mel right before I left on my trip, I'm glad they are happy and all, sometimes I wonder what I'll be doing when I'm done.

I guess this is good for now, I left some important things and people out, but you can't have everything in one day.

Where oh where...

So yesterday I was talking to a good friend on and off most of the day, and she was kinda down. It made me think a lot about what I have. So I started making a list of things I'm thankful for, and this is what I came up with so far:

A cool family
Great friends
A job
After a decade of running, I can still walk

There's more but that's where I'm going to stop now. Someone at work yesterday asked me how I was doing, and I said my typical, "I'm living the dream." They responded with something like, if this is the dream, life is screwed up. I'm not sure I agree with that, Life is what we make it to be. I was always told, that our lives are not made by the dreams that we dream, but the choices we make. Don't get me wrong, I've made choices I regret, I've done things which I know I should have done differently, but that doesn't make life bad, does it? So I guess what I got from this is life can only be as good as we let it be, the whole perception is nine tenths of reality thing. So my goal today, in the words of a car commercial, "grab life by the horns."

Ramblings...

So watching Tiger Woods yesterday win his 3rd US open, I learned something.

I don't know how many of you saw the commercial with his father talking about how tiger would never meet anyone as mentally tough as himself. It shocked me, how cool is it that his father would want him to be so mentally tough that even if he didn't succeed at golf, he would still be able to go through life with a mentally tough attitude.

This caused me to think about God and my Dad, today is my dad's 56's birhtday, lol I always call him old guy and stuff jokingly, but I don't know where I'd be in life without him. I know, we all have those people we care about and stuff, but really. Everything I know he taught me, and I guess I just wanted to say thanks to him.
