8:00 pm	Who am I again?????? Okay finally got time for an update, the hair is now Black again for the first time in god knows how long. I still havent seen Underworld yet but I own it so no gigantic rush. Today was Fathers day over here, my 3rd one. Unfortuneately I was at work so didnt get to do a hell of a lot. My Kid is 2 yet this is my third Fathers day, Ive been married nearly 3 years yet it only seems a few weeks ago I met Amanda. Jeez at this rate its gonna be 2030 and I still wont have read all the Laurell K Hamilton books by then. I guess half of it is down to not ever really having a minute actually sitting down, well when I do sit down im still doing things. So..... surely if im cramming everything in then with all the stuff ive done the memories should make the past 3 years seem like 10 years have passed. There must be some law of relativity that Einstein never figgered about being a busy person accelerates time, either that or Sesame Street lied to me about the basics and I`m gonna inadvertenly solve Fermats last theorem by playing Noughts and Crosses... And Yup Elizabeth youre still a babe..... Current Mood: contemplative Current Music: nails screeching down the blackboard of life.... (2 Comments |Comment on this)

9:14 pm	Kick Assssssssssssssssss Took James to the Half-pipe today, we didnt take his board because he was unsettled and i didnt want him splitting his head open ( Yes I know I shouldnt let my son skateboard at 2 years old, he enjoys it and social services realise hes a bit more advanced than other kids), he spent about an hour climbing to the top and then sliding down it yelling "Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!". Sometimes its good to be an irresponsible parent :D, I spent the same hour sliding down after him yeling "Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Yup being a parent is cool, but it also gets cooler. Finally watched "The Last Samurai" Today goddamn it rocks!, James watched first 5 minutes of it with me before he went to bed. He kept yelling "Oh Deaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrr" with a grin on his face, Im goin to have to get him a practice sword when hes older. Jeez hes a mean swing with a lightsaber already (Told you you being a parent is fun). Yup the old grim Scottish bugger is happy today, definitely mark this one in the calendar. Just amazed how well hes turning out and how well Im doing as a Dad. And yes Elizabeth youre a babe Current Mood: At one with the Force Current Music: nails scraping down a blackboard (5 Comments |Comment on this)

1:55 am	tH3 w33k33nd h45 l4nD3d Finally another weekend has arrived and im off work!!!!!!!!!!!!(Yaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy), got a shit load of stuff planned. Shopping ,gardening, finally watching Last Samurai, Dyeing my hair Black for first time in three years and giving my wife a damn good seeing-to ;D. Was at my folks yesterday,Amanda was takin James to see her folks so it was easier dropping them off at the station if we were there overnight. Went for a nap and had a weird dream, I was in a market in Spain (I think it was Las Ramblas in Barcelona,I was there a few years back). I was trying to get some food for me and James and ended up arguing with the guy at the stall, as the argument progressed I noticed my folks coming over and nothing they said made sense. I kept saying to them "Look this guy is being an asshole I just want to get some Prawn omelettes for me and Mr Bear"; they still werent making sense. A minute later I woke up and realised why:- turns out I was asleep right above them and the bed was making the perfect sounding board so that I could hear them talking downstairs. Either that or they took too much Acid in the 60`s and I`m getting the flashbacks 35 years later........... I must see about getting a good lawyer just in case its the latter >:) Current Mood: quixotic Current Music: "Kenya" www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/29/ (4 Comments |Comment on this)

1:48 am	4 seasons in one day I got through a Tuesday without any major disasters, Yaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy. The weather is weird right now, blazing sunshine one minute, Howling Gales after that, fog when im coming home. Didnt see the Sun-Venus conjunction today too much cloud, ah well only 123 years till the next one. Ate a Chicken Samabat without bursting into flames(the sauce is made from those little white seeds in peppers that youre not meant to touch), found out that I know a shit-load of stuff that my bosses dont. Been home nearly an hour without lighting a cigarette, that is almost a record. had to swop sim-cards between my wifes phone and her girlfriends to send a message to someone. Ive been pretty busy and I`m only just home. Piece of advice kiddies never be seen as an expert at anything by your peers, they will only want you to fix stuff for them ..........

1:45 am	Mein gott in Himmel Another Monday has come and gone, Tuesday has struck again!!!!!!!!!!!. I hate tuesdays, if anything bad happens to me its always a Tuesday. My work decided to have a fire drill just after midnight so we were all standing outside and it started raining. Im noticing a lot of stuff in the news about Ronald Reagan dying, mostly the reporters go on that theyre amazed at the response. For all the jokes about him he was one of those guys that achieved a hell of a lot, actor, war hero, head of cia, president. One thing im sure of if he`d been president just now Bin Laden would be 6 foot under and we wouldnt have needed a second Gulf war. Goodbye Ronnie youve earned the rest and the respect.

7:40 pm	Ups and Downs Well had yet another fun day at the office today, taught my boss how to get a membership on Ebay. Work ended and I dropped in by Blockbuster to get "The Last Samurai" and "Underworld", been wanting to see both of these movies for ages so I thought what the hell?. Finally got home and my son James was waiting at the gate for me, he`s learned several new words today and I dug out a toy truck that he can sit on. It used to be my truck so It gave me a weird feeling watching James sitting on a toy I used to ride on when I was his age. Dunno guess I`m just feeling my age, though I figger it`ll really hit me when he starts using my pistols and my sword for the first time. Looking at it all though I guess thats one of the very few positive things about being an adult. Current Mood: contemplative Current Music: Slayer Bloodline (1 Comment |Comment on this)
