Oh, there I am.

Yes yes, it has been quite some time. I sit here, writing this to you, from my desk in my current room. I say current because I have no idea when I'll be moving again, so I don't want to put the label "permanent" on anything. What has been going on? Well it has been six days since my last post, and while I can't recall every event accurately, I can just give you some summaries.

Work: Well work is what it is and nothing more. Wal Mart treats me with the same dignity as it does it's clientele (I'll let you figure that one out), but it does pay for all my bills so I can't argue the fact that it serves a purpose. I have no intentions of letting this become a career. To be honest, I have no realization of what my career shall wind up being. Oh well, I suppose I need to get somewhat of a higher education for that. And speaking of education...

Education: Last week while on a lunch break, I ran into my old college Jazz Band instructor. He is a really down-to-earth kind of guy, while having strong foundations in his beliefs and opinions. Good guy overall; we get along well. He knew I had yet to finish my degree, and asked me why don't I come back and play some bass for the jazz band. I told him I'd like to, but due to my mistakes (and that's putting it mildly) in my past, the college refuses to let me in, even though I will of course be paying out of my pocket for my classes and supplies. He then thought on this and proceeded to tell me to come by his office sometime this week so we can look over my transcripts and "see how bad the damage is". Well I know it's not pretty by any standards, but hopefully he can talk to the right people and at least get me another chance (yes undeservedly so) to prove that I have gained some maturity. I have been out of college for two years, and through all I've experienced in that short time frame, I'm ready for a serious run at a degree.

Well those are the major events taking place; I told you it was nothing grand or specific. Life has been very relaxed lately, to the point where I'm slipping into a comfortable state of acceptance, and that scares me. I play my games, run my fantasy football teams, watch sports religiously, listen and play music frequently, and watch films like mad crazy. It's calming, but yet it's stationary. Hopefully some new developments will happen this week, and my spark will once again be lit. Hopefully...
