Here in your mind you have complete privacy. Here there's no difference between what is and what could be.

My will shall shape the future. Whether I fail or succeed shall be no man's doing but my own. I am the force; I can clear any obstacle before me or I can be lost in the maze. My choice; my responsibility; win or lose, only I hold the key to my destiny.

To look backward for a while is to refresh the eye, to restore it, and to render it the more fit for its prime function of looking forward.

had a good weekend. still moving. FML. have decided to start saving like now for our next move....in 10 yrs. i shall hire movers.

hung out with some friends here friday night....best mexican martinis. EVER. then we went here for some not so good margaritas. <--this place...you have to climb about 30 stairs to get to it....we saw several people fall. and i tripped going up, of course.

and that's about it. i swear, i am so boring these days. srsly. who knew that TTC provided so much more bloggable crap?

You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call 'failure' is not the falling down, but the staying down.

so, we're officially moving into our new house. i love it. but moving sucks. and there's not much more i can say about that.

training is going good. hitting the gym 6x a week. trainer is kicking my ass but i suppose that's his job.

lil bro is still with us. mom wants him back next week tho. summer has flown by and it's time for him to get ready for the 8th grade (scary).

work is work.

the next few months are going to be exciting. at the end of aug, kelly will be moving back from seattle and staying with us for a bit. then, in early sept. another friend, emily, will be moving from georgia and staying with us while her fiance finishes up army basic training. poor captain...all the estrogen! lmao! in sept, kelly and i will be heading north to chi-town to check out some Cubs games! woot woot!! cannot wait!

and that's all for now! carry on...

It is the possibility that keeps me going … and though you may call me a dreamer or a fool or any other thing, I believe that anything is possible.

One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon--instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.

On Sunday I turned the big 3.0! I can't believe it and I can't wait to rock out in my 30's.

The other day a man asked me what I thought was the best time of life. "Why," I answered without a thought, "now."

Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when, whatever be the attitude of the body, the soul is on its knees.
