MARRIED 2 YEARS/LIVING TOGETHER 3 YEARS
Current mood: blessed
To My WIFE...
"Basically, I'm completely smitten with you, and I don't care if I'm making an ass
out of myself, because you've seen me make an ass out of myself a million times, and you still want to be my friend."
"That's all I need from you. That's more than I could ever ask for."
"A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person."
I Love You,
Me

TO MY WIFE
To my Susan,
Three years ago we shared our first kiss,
and I knew at that moment,
that I would spend the rest of my life
sharing my heart that I gave to you,
breathing the air you shared with me
and walking a path that we were meant too.
So to my wife,
I Wish You a Happy Birthday

I ADMIT, I AM A BAD PERSON pt 2
I don't care about second-hand smoke or the people that bitch about it.
If you choose not to smoke, fine. That's your right. You have the ability to share and express your feelings, choices and opinions because you live in the U.S.A.. You have the right to designate where you and your like minded cohorts can congregate that appeal to your "cleaner air" regime. I accept that. That's very cool.
I respect your right to speak your mind, share and express your feelings, choices and opinions of where to go and not go.
If you want a non-smoking establishment, they have those.
No one forced you into the smoker friendly places. No one said "See this haze of smoke, through the window, well I got a gun to your head...now go in there damn it and breathe DEEPLY!!"
No one is forcing people to work in them either, they choose to.
You don't want to work with or around smokers then DON'T!
If you don't want to be around it, fine, no one's making you.
But if you choose to say something about it around me, you might as well respect my given right to tell you to "Shut the FUCK up!!! To take you, your views, and your booger hooks and cram them all in the place where male prisoners like to "establish dominance."
But these should all be choices. Not Mandated rules.
If smoking is so bad why won't insurance companies cover the costs to "QUIT SMOKING"?
The powers that be tell us that pot is very very bad...so it's illegal.
The same powers tell us that crack, cocaine and heroin is bad...guess what, that's illegal too.
Those very same voices are telling us that smoking is so bad that they have multi-million dollar a year ad campaigns telling us how bad it is, and that people should stop.
But why do these organizations spend so much money re-informing the population how unhealthy and addictive smoking is yet it's still legal?
I mean I could go all religious here and go..."well god has a plan for all of us." Then why are we interfering? If it was god's plan to have someone die due to smoking, it was his plan, right?
Better yet let's get Darwinian. Only the strong survive, let's cull the weak, survival of the fittest, thin the herd, make more room for the chosen or whatever statement you want to use that means you are better than the rest.
Or I can get mathematical.
6 billion people on this blue planet.
SUBTRACT
Globally, nearly 5 million premature deaths are caused as a result of smoking.
NOW ADD
There are 133 million births each year globally.
EQUALS
That's telling "US" we either need a bigger planet or more smokers.
I smoked for 20 years. I haven't had a cigarette since January. My wife smoked for almost 25 years and she hasn't had a cigarette since December. It wasn't for health reasons that we quit.
It was because we both refused to pay five dollars a pack.
But we sure as hell don't bitch and complain when others do it. It's their choice. One I won't take away from them. So don't you dare take mine.

TIME WARP/WORM HOLE
Current mood: cheerful
It seems my lovely wife Season lives near a worm hole or has access to a parralle dimension.
We were talking about the upcoming movie "88 Minutes" and I said well if they are going to do this correctly, then the movie has to be at least 120 minutes long so that it can do the story setup and character development.
NOW THIS NEXT PART WAS THE ACTUAL CONVERSATION
"If the movie is 88 minutes long and 90 minutes is an hour and a half, than the movie must be an hour long." says Season
"An hour long?" replies Jose
"Yes" she said with conviction "An hour long."
All I could do was sit there, in stunned silence, quickly jotting down her words so I could share them here.

DREAMS pt 1
"Look at all his dummy thoughts,
they fall into the air,
Look at all the hangman's kids,
twitching in the square.
You take a long walk of hope
that ends in a very short rope.
Needless to say I am wary around the felines now....
I ADMIT, I AM A BAD PERSON pt 1
Now let me explain why I don't care about this topic.
First the people who are trying to save it.
No matter what we do we are still killing the planet...for HUMAN LIFE. If we want to save the planet for human existence, we have to stop driving cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, snow mobiles and motor boats. Let's stop using electric and gas mowers. Let's stop using running water, electricity and natural gas in our homes and go back to cutting down 1 tree and replanting 3. Let's us go back to wood stoves and fire places. Let's go back to self sufficient farming, without tractors or combines, but with horses, mules and oxen. Let's give up television, movies, PS3's, PCs, Macs and I-pods. Let's all go outside to work the land and to grow with it. Let's all give up every "convenience" progress has given us and walk away from it.
YEAH LIKE THAT'LL HAPPEN!
That would be the only way we as humans will ever be able to survive the waste we are creating by promoting such things as "Earth Day" and "Think Green." I mean how much energy is wasted to promote one single minute of commercial? You figure that there are
303,824,646 people in the U.S.A.
There are 112.8 million television households in the United States.
So a commercial for it to be successful has to some how reach a large percent of the population correct?
How many TV's is that?
How much energy is wasted so that this broadcast reaches enough people to truly make a real difference and not the "It's so cool and hip to be green" people?
How many people use the internet to send their "green" message? And how much energy does THAT waste?
Sure you drive a hybrid car. BUT you are still wasting all the fossil fuels that goes into designing, engineering, testing, producing and driving it.
Why are you driving anyway? You are thinking "GREEN" shouldn't you be walking or riding a bike or (if you are truly thinking "green") riding a horse, pony or mule. I mean to truly be green wouldn't we have to pretty much live like pioneers?
And I know for a fact we are too self absorbed to make that kind of change. Instead we will waste all kinds of the Earth so that we can make it support human life longer WITHOUT giving up any of the conveniences that progress has afforded us.
Fucking hypocrites.
NOW THE PLANET...
The planet is 4.5 billion years old.
Dinosaurs were on the Earth for 250 million years.
The first Homo Sapien walked the Earth around 200,000 years ago, but no one is really quite sure about that.
Now I am not a math genius but if you add that together it does not even come close to the age of the Earth.
The Earth does not need saving.
It will outlast us all.
Thank the maker for that.
The only ones that need saving is us...and we're doing a piss poor job of that.
I guess since I know that our Sun will one day consume this planet, and that nothing at all lasts forever, I'd rather think pink than green.

THE DOOR TO TOMORROW
And If life hands you a lemon, you're supposed to make lemonade, correct?
So than, what do you do when life keeps handing you happiness?
I'm not a very nice person (I have ex's who can attest to that).
If someone pisses me off i.e. a person who I thought was a friend and turns out that they did not trust me enough to come with me about something, I'm still nice and pleasant to them.
If a somebody says things about me (race, religion. etc. etc.) that has nothing to do with my personality or generalizes me as nothing but a race, religion etc., I still treat then the same way.
You see before Season I would have torn into them and let loose the hounds of hell so that they knew without any doubt how I felt. That what was done to me did bother me, but now I don't.
You see I feel sorry for them. Not in the "I pity you fool" sort of way, but in the "man, you'll never get me, and that just sucks" kind of way.
I feel bad for us, because when they do this, all it ends up doing is creating a gap between us. The feelings of friendship are now a chasm that separates us.
I will never talk to them the same way I used too. I will not trust them. They are kept at arms length (and I keep hoping my arms get longer).
Now? Well now, the people who do hurt me will never know what their unkind words did.
Instead they get my bogus smile and laugh and a false friend who is keeping his enemies close.
But some how and for some reason, I have the affection and love from the woman who has married me. She looks at me like I really matter and still listens to me, as if my words could move mountains.
She has blessed my life with conversation, with silly topics and the serious discussions. I am fortunate to have a partner, a friend and a wife who wants to share her life with me.
The strength we share, has allowed me to face many of my demons, no matter how ugly they were. She stood by me and still looks at me with love filled eyes.
I thought this was just stories and lies, but here I stand. A believer that true love exists. And that it can keep growing day by day.
So I'm looking at the apple pie and lemonade in front of me. And I'm thinking to myself...do I really deserve this? I honestly don't think so, but Season, she makes me feel like I do. So I take a slice of that apple pie and a swig from the lemonade and revel in the fact that it really is OK to be happy. That it is really OK to find bliss in the person next to you.
That happiness is not a mat that sits on your doorway, but the key that opens the door to a future you never looked towards.
So with that I remain simply...
a happy fool

A MOMENT OF DOUBT
Today I felt a true anguish that shook me down to my core. I felt a sense of loss.
A true loss, not the "Oh crap where are my car keys' feeling, but the "Oh shit, something in me just died" kind of loss. This time it was very different.
It was the "am I really allowed to be this happy" kind of feeling.
I am with a partner who loves me what I feel for her can only be described as bliss. But at the same time I ask myself "Can I make her truly happy?"
I don't know. I don't have all the answers. I can't even pretend to have them. All I know is that I feel so complete when I am with her.
There used to be this HUGE pool of anger that bubbled and boiled deep inside of me.
Now I only find hope, love and a wonderful feeling called tomorrow. I pray that I can give her this everyday. Because inside of my strange little soul I find it whenever I hear her heart beat or whenever she smiles at me. I find myself happier than ever before in my pitiful existence.
For some reason today after watching the fall of fictional character, I find myself wondering. Do I make her happy? Do I make her feel complete? Do I do to her what she does for me? Can I save her?
I don't know, maybe I'm just being stupid, it's something I do a lot. I still wonder "am I what she has been searching for?"
I guess that's all I really wanted to say. She makes my world, my life and my soul complete. I just pray that I do the same thing for her.

THANK YOU
I have faced that train of thought on many occasions. I feel the way the tracks shake and rumble and I hear the metal shrieking. I see the light approaching me as all the noise and chaos start to confuse and terrify my very soul. I have two choices right now. I can jump or stand.
I can jump to the side and watch as each fragment of time screams by, like a voyeur to my own life.
Or, I can stand motionless, with open arms, welcoming and relishing each and every moment as it pummels against me. All the good and all the bad, that has befallen me, for which I am grateful. It has shaped me into the man, the saint, the sinner, and the asshole that I am.
But on this day I am here to thank those that did me a favor. I am here to thank those that tried to break me.
It may seem strange to be thanking all the people who I should be hating. Although without them I'd be looking at the world and slowly counting away the days till I cease to exist. To become nothing but a smear on the tapestry of life.
Why is that? Because those people who tried to tear me down, in turn, built me up.
Every part of my soul and sanity that was stripped away, became the very same pieces I used to rebuild myself.
The more they tried to kill the person I was, the more they steered me into becoming the man I'm supposed to be.
Now here I sit. A stronger, saner and very honestly a greater man for it.
So with that said, this goes to all the people who tried to make me less. Whether you wanted too or not, you made me more, and for that, I thank you.
