Vision Restored! (and other assorted useless information)

Hello my... Wait a second, something's not right...

Ah, that's more like it. Welcome my adoring fans!

I got my glasses back, so the world is nice and crisply sharp again, which is much appreciated after three days of walking into things like I were Stevie Wonder.

Quick note, I've been reading an awesome web comic. It might be only for the guys, but it's pretty slick, and the art work on the most recent of them is quite good. www.leasticoulddo.com Start from the beginning, trust me on this one.

Anyway, last night I was hanging out with my friend Brenda, and it got me to thinking. I don't really know what I like on a grand scale anymore, or what about me makes me interesting and fun and all of that happy horseshit.

I feel like making a list of things I KNOW I like to do.

Live sports
Live music
Videogames
Music
Playing sports
Talking
Sex
Listening to good music
Reading

Yea, that's about what I can think of at this moment. Here's the issue, I'd like to find some things that might me more in line with helping me branch out and meet some new people. I'd usually say a woman in this area, but I'm not even 100% certain I'd be good to a girl right now, I kind of don't really know exactly what I'm looking for out of life anymore.

Issue #2 comes to mind now. I want a career, I'm sick of working 9-5 ass jobs being bored and miserable doing what I do every day.

I remember going to Universal Studios when I was 13 or 14 with my family. We had a great time and all, but I specifically remember two guys. One dude was a guard wearing what was comparable to a Canadian Mountie uniform with a huge smile on his face, apparently loving life. The other was our "tour guide" for Jaws. Man, that guy really got into it, yelling and jumping around, and acting his ass off like that crappy looking animatronic shark was really Jaws.

Common thread, those two guys seemed to LOVE their jobs. I get that, I'd like to find a place where I can be really happy waking up everyday and going to work. I'm seriously considering going back to school, finishing up a degree in journalism and trying to get myself into the sports community. I mean, whether writing, or being your play by play guy for the local AA baseball team or coaching, I truly believe my calling in life is in the field of athletics some how.

Another topic while I'm feeling scatter brained. Why is it that I wrap up (and have for a long time) all of my thoughts and self worth in women? I mean, I love women, don't get me wrong. I like having women friends, I love being with a good girl, but I have so many issues finding women that are A) the kind of girl that I fall for (it's rarer than you think) and B) is just as into me as I'm into her. My question isn't why can't I have better luck or why can't I pick up a good woman, but rather, what the heck is the point of wrapping myself up in things I A) can't control and B) shouldn't let bother me in the first place. I suppose that will be my new years resolution this year that I can start on now in the end of November (is it almost Christmas already?!?!). That and quitting smoking, yea I'm pretty tired of being a smoker, but damn this addiction.

More when I have more to talk about. As always feel free to leave me comments and all sorts of fun things.
