Wow! Been a while....Thought I would update just so I know my life is proceeding on. Currently, I work for Jackson County Mental Health as a Skills Trainer. I work with at-risk youth which usually involves me taking kids fishing, hikings, or swimming (AND I GET PAID FOR THIS). Pretty sweet eh! College pays my friends. Life is good. Still head over heals with my Amber love, we listen to Rasputina religiously and are awaiting a wonderfull Fall here in the Rouge Valley togther. After four years of seperation from my past fiancee "Krisgoat" and my snake of an ex-best friend (who underhandidly seduced her while I was at work with...!get this! ...YO-YO tricks) have finally figured out that I am not going to pound Erick into a mud puddle and have decided to leave their appartment. I see them all over town now. Still want to pound him into a mud puddle.....better then that however (damn my possitive morals and spiritual values!) Moving on... So glad my good friend Sprite is still in my life even if it is over the internet. She means alot to me even if she may not know it. I thrive on my relations with loved ones and do not know where I would be without them. I would like thank God...fluffy bunnies and my right nut... and all my fans...for which all of this would not be possible with out you...thank you and good night!

Fun month this January. Getting alot done for my degree. Next week Amber and I are doing the annual "Lock-In" at SOU. About 40 officers from Medford will be hosting police training exercises like running the POST test which is an agility training course consisting such fun activities like, running up stairs, Push-ups, and dragging a 160lb dummy around. We also get to use a gun simulater that uses a video screen with interactive evil-doers. It's voice responsive too. There is also S.W.A.T. Training where we get to search a school building room by room. We then get to drive a cruizer and play with all the fun instruments (Can't shoot the automatic rifle looked in the front seat however. Damn!). So it should be intertaining. Oooo Oooo and I get a free T-shirt. Im hopeing it will encourage me to quit smoking and get to the gym. well thats my life currently. See ya!

You Are 31 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

Wanted to share this great song and even greater poem with you all.

REM
Half A World Away

This could be the saddest dusk
I've ever seen
Turn to a miracle
High alive
My mind is racing
As it always will
My hand is tired my heart aches
I'm half a world away here
My head sworn
To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
And hold it
Go it alone
Hold it along and hold, hold.

This lonely deep sit hollow
I'm half a world
Half the world away
My shoes are gone
My life spent
I had too much to drink
I didn't think
And I I didn't think of you
I guess that's all I needed
To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
And hold it
Blackbirds backwards forwards and fall and hold hold.

Oh this lonely world is wasted
Pathetic eyes high alive
blind to the tide that turns the sea
This storm it came up strong
It shook the trees
And blew away our fear
I couldn't even hear

To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
And hold it
To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along
And hold it
Blackbirds backwards forwards and fall and hold hold.

This could be the saddest dusk
I've ever seen
Turn to a miracle
high alive
My mind is racing
As it always will
My hands tired my heart aches
I'm half a world away and go.

Hungry like the wolf! Rowr!

Wolf - You are a bit of a loner, mostly because
people are intimidated by you because you can
be somewhat aggressive, but once someone gets
to know you, they find you can be a truely
passionate and kind person.

Sun, 04 Dec 2005 00:48:57 GMT

Today is a special day in my life as it marks the release of my very first solo album TheFutureEmbrace. For over 17 years I have been proud to represent Chicago as an artist through my words and music, and am continually humbled by the undying love that I have been shown from this city as one of its native sons.

When I played the final Smashing Pumpkins show on the night of December 2, 2000, I walked off the Metro stage believing that I was forever leaving a piece of my life behind. I naively tried to start a new band, but found that my heart wasn't in it. I moved away to pursue a love that I once had but got lost. So I moved back home to heal what was broken in me, and to my surprise I found what I was looking for. I found that my heart is in Chicago, and that my heart is in The Smashing Pumpkins.

For a year now I have walked around with a secret, a secret I chose to keep. But now I want you to be among the first to know that I have made plans to renew and revive The Smashing Pumpkins. I want my band back, and my songs, and my dreams. In this desire I feel I have come home again.

Heart song

Its the way you look, so sweet in the eyes and soft in the heart
Its the way you hold the flesh that beats for you and the way you make it your own. This still-born ambition before you only breaths life from a deep reflection of a past that I still can't claim as home. Its the way you slap me, the way you hold me, the way you perfect the enemy within me. My sub-aggresive tendency burns a hole deep in the retnea. A hole small enough for the soul to be seen. Can't you see the struggle within? Its all for you! Its what I choose. Its the way you slap me, the way you kiss me, the way you love...with a big stick and a heart of sand. I can feel you sift between the fingers and on to the ground. Ill count the specks and bottle you in always. Forever ill claim you as my queen and heartsong.

Alright! Finished the house I've been working on. It looks great. I wasn't sure how much I was gonna get paid because they have this budget system of if you beat the recomended time they gave the client for the job,then I get extra for effeciency pay. First they said I only get minamum wage with no effeciency pay but I think they new it ticked me off so now I get a $39 bonus. Sweet! So anyways I guess Im happy about that!

see ya!

Fri, 27 May 2005 12:08:29 GMT

5:00 Am. Another day another dollar. Great news though. I learned that Im not just making 7.25 an hour but also however much I beat the budget on this house Im painting. Right now Im way ahead of schedule and averaging around 21 dollars an hour. Sweet eh! I think I might hold on to this job.
My girlfriends daughter is going on a jet boat trip in Grass Pants today. I hope the weather stays nice. She should be able to see black bears and Eagles (not the terrible butt-rock group) as well as get a little wet from the spray. I went on one before and it was a great summer treat. Im so jealous. Well I love you Amber and i'll see you this afternoon my little tickleberry!

Bye:)

Thu, 26 May 2005 11:35:04 GMT

Its 4:00 Am............Wow this is lame. Working this new house painting job. Its: 4:00 Am.......Ok im looking for a new job. Can't lay down or I could fall asleep and miss my 6:00 deadline. The news sucks. .... If Im looking forward to a whole summer of this crap then I quit. I'll work this job till i replace it.
If they try to get me to hang over the roof of this two-story, I'm walking. Anyways, i keep thinking of my baby and going to SF. Thats the only thing that got me up today.

Ok thats enough bellyaching for one early crappy morning.
