I'm back, I'm mean, and I'm misunderstood


I really dislike being misunderstood. I think that is why I am so drawn to the movie Rebel Without a Cause. The main character was simply misunderstood. He was misunderstood by classmates, his friends, and the arresting officer. The only thing that really understood him was the wind-up monkey. Dean's character, Jim Stark, understood everybody else. He knew his Dad wore the dress, mom wore the pants, and the grandmother was the source of discontent. He was honest about his circumstances. No one else gave Jim Stark the same honest perspective. What thrills me is when someone really gets me. I always here people say "Do you get it?" "Are you with me?", etc... I want people to get me...to understand what I am about and who I am on a very broad term. I don't mean the minutia of my soul, but on a global perspective. Do you get it or not?

Get a life

I have decided to get a life. Finally, it has happened for me. A life is waiting, it holds its breath and searches for one that is in need. That search, my blog friends, is finally over. Marriage you say? Kids, you wonder? Please think on a larger scale....I am talking about LIFE. The kind of life that people are envious of. The kind of life that answers THE question. That is what I am talking about here. Ahhh, I know the light has turned on for you. You are nodding your heads at this very moment, you are clasping your hands together, a smile is forming at the corners of your mouth, and you feel it. Now, my friends, you know what I mean. I am getting a life very very soon. When is insignificant, it is enough that it will happen. The big decision has been made, finally. Yes, a life.

Catch up

I just posted a pic from Flickr and realized I had not been on my site for a month. So, I will have to catch all my blog fans up (I have soooooo many it's sickening).

1. The Spurs lost against Dallas. I was upset, but had to move on.
2. I have been to the mall three times now.
3. I have been working in my garden...added some aloe vera and the such.
4. I have been keeping up with my friend Ethel. She is 88 yrs old and a real pip. Visit her on myspace sometime (link provided on the side bar).
5. I have been investigating Edna Bambridge. She is an allusive woman who terrorizes blogs, yahoo answers, and other related internet sites. So far, nothing. See my avatar on Yahoo Answers for more.

I have so much more to share, but I will keep you all waiting on the edge of your seat. Until morrow my fans. Think good thoughts and keep checking back. Feel free to live vicariously through my blog.

My Motivational Poster


My creation

This is my own motivational poster. I am going to print it and hang it at work. You know, on my cheap cubicle particle board wall. I think I will get some interesting comments. I love to throw people off...maybe I need to come up with more motivational posters...some with real pizzazz.

What's in a title

My subject titles just don't reach out and grab you. I think that is why I never have any comments. I don't think anyone actually reads my blog. Who would with the name "Boring Life". I mean my life is boring. I went to the pool today. I floated around on a very cheap raft. I was content with this until four children, all wearing diapers, also decided to get in the pool. This is a big pool, so they weren't too close to me. Regardless of the distance just the thought of those diapers filling with water and whatever was in the diaper swishing around and escaping the elastic around the legs. Eeww. I mean I don't consider myself a germaphobe, but come on. That's enough to make anyone kind of squeemish. But now you see a day in the life of me. Pool, wet diapers, poop in pool, and home again (I didn't poop in pool, the kids did..the kids). No wonder my blog is lost out in intenet space floating around the poop and never being given the time of day. Well, at least check out the links to the other blogs I have. They are great...not boring in the least.

It's been awhile


It's been a couple of months since I have added anything here. I have been taking a lot of pictures and having fun with my new photo software. I upload to Flickr almost every week. I will be adding some new photos here too. I really wanted to post something new so my account is not deleted due to inactivity. So there you have it. Go Spurs Go

Go Forth


Ripple

In the darkness, oh child, you stand among us awaiting the light
The light summons you with great strength and calling
Beckoning to the heart that newly beats with all its young might

Love ushers you on its wings of glory, calling you by sheer delight
Light floods your eyes and your first breath aches within
God has called you by your true name, the name that is your birth right

Your cry is a war cry that ushers in the rich warm breath of life
Your first smile is for God that held you in His arms the eternity before your birth
God has named you and to you alone He whispers go forth not into strife

Go forth and move the mountains with faith abound
Go forth young man and forge a path of righteousness
Go forth and pour out to the heavens until the angels hear your sound
